The Billionaire's True Heiress: From Fake Jewel to Real Crown novel Chapter 348

Edison shot her a look. “You talk too much.”

“Come on, let’s not waste time. We still have to visit the Lathams,” Edison called out, sticking his head out of the window to remind Pandora.

Vicki finally let go after hearing that. “Alright, you should get going. Jenny, make sure to come back with Edison next time, okay? Actually, even if he’s not around, you can visit me on your own too.”

Jenny nodded. “Okay, Grandma.”

As soon as Edison started the engine, Jenny glanced back at Claire, who was sitting in the backseat. “You know, Claire, she might nag a little, but Grandma is actually really sweet.”

Claire grinned. “And you’re saying that right in front of Edison—you called his grandma a nag.”

“Edison doesn’t mind, do you? Right, Edison?” Jenny shot him a look.

Edison just let out a dramatic sigh. “I’m just the guy driving, don’t drag me into your gossip.”

Shirley chimed in, not missing a beat. “Honestly, I think Vicki nags a lot too. Plus, she loves playing matchmaker.”

Claire just shook her head. Sometimes you had to wonder if these two even realized Edison was sitting right there.

For most of the drive, Claire tried to catch up on sleep—thanks to Shirley, she barely got any rest last night. By the time they were almost at the Latham place, she finally woke up.

But before they headed over, Edison made a quick stop to pick up some gifts. They looked fancy, all packaged up nicely, but honestly, to Edison, none of this compared to the local treats you could get at The James Village. Pandora had actually told him to bring some of those hometown specialties along, but he’d quietly swapped them out on his own.

Edison explained to Claire, “I figured Octavia doesn’t care about stuff from the village. She probably looks down on it, so I switched it out for these. Maybe this is more her style.”
