Old Madam Shen's refusal before disheartened Asher but, he didn't try to pressure his grandmother. No matter how reluctant he was, he knew from where her stance came.
"I'm sorry, Asher. I'll be unfair to Lili if I helped you. Not when I promise her that I won't ever force her back to you."
"You're my grandson, Asher. But, you need to face the consequences of your own actions. All these years, haven't I told you to treat Lili better? It won't be fair to Lili if I coerced her to return to you. If you're really earnest, show your sincerity to her."
His grandmother's words kept haunting Asher from that day. They held the undeniable truth. Right now, he was indeed facing the consequences of his past choices.
"Young Master, I believe that you don't have anything scheduled for Sunday tomorrow. Would you go back to the ancestral home?"
