But back then, Vera Xavier was awkward and withdrawn. Egged on by Cara Preston, she caused a huge scene at her grandparents' house and said some truly horrible things.
Because of that incident, her grandparents had a poor impression of her.
She had thought her grandparents despised her. But later, after Cara Preston had utterly ruined her reputation, it was her grandparents who gave her a sum of money. They wanted her to start a business so she'd have a way to support herself.
If it hadn't been for her grandparents' support, Cara Preston might have had her killed much earlier in her previous life.
When Zachary Preston saw her silence, he assumed she didn't want to go and tried to persuade her. "Your grandpa and grandma really want to see you again. I know it'll take up a day, but..."
"Dad, I'll go with you!" Vera Xavier cut him off.
Zachary Preston looked relieved. "That's great. Focus on your studies for the next few days. I'll take you to see your grandparents on Saturday."
