Chapter 146 How Can This Happen?!
Linda took a deep breath and blurted. “Of course I won’t feel uncomfortable.”
Meanwhile, Elisa escorted Julia to her seat.
She cast a glance at Jerry and nodded at him with a smile.
If truth be told, she hadn’t figured out an appropriate way to address Jerry.
Her relationship with Monica was hostile, so she didn’t find it awkward to address her as ‘Mrs. Wickam’.
However, she was in a quandary when it came to Jerry. She couldn’t address him as ‘dad’ because Gareth and she had divorced, but she didn’t want to address him as ‘Mr. Wickam’ either because Jerry was genuinely kind to her and she didn’t want to appear aloof from him. As such, she chose to remain quiet.
Although she had addressed him as ‘dad’ when they last met, she couldn’t bring herself to address him the same in front of so many guests.

Soon, Darren walked into the hall, beaming ear to ear as the guests fawned over him.
Linda instinctively observed the surroundings. That’s strange. Why isn’t Garry here yet?
Just then, Julia held Elisa’s hand and said to the crowd with a wide grin. “Hello everyone, I’d like to introduce to you, my biological granddaughter.”
The crowd was flabbergasted.
Biological granddaughter? We never knew Old Madam Wickam has a granddaughter.
Even Monica gazed at Julia in shock because she was clueless about what was going on.
While the guests were dumbfounded, Julia pulled Elisa closer to her while Elisa wore a shocked look. “Grandma?”
Julia smiled and explained, “In the past when Elisa was my granddaughter-in-law, I’ve always deemed her as my own granddaughter. Even though she has already divorced my grandson, to me, she’s still my dear granddaughter.”
Darren cast a glance at Julia. Although he was slightly displeased, his gaze was still tinged with affection.
Julia was his beloved woman. Despite having devoted his life to his career, he couldn’t bear to separate from his wife.
As such, Darren allowed Julia to do as she pleased when it came to insignificant matters. Moreover, today was her birthday, so he naturally wouldn’t want to upset her.
Julia ignored the shocked gazes of the others and continued, “I’m glad to see so many of you here today. I hereby announce that Elisa will be a member of the Wickam family from now on. Both her parents have passed on, so I’d like to include Elisa in our family tree. This is a decision made by Darren and me after a discussion yesterday.”
There was a change in Monica’s expression. “Mom…”
