Chapter 189: The Interesting Mrs. Travens
"Excuse me, please cooperate with us."
Julia Watkins became panic, "You, do you know who I am?! Do you know what kind of people I know? How dare you arrest me!"
"Miss Watkins. Please cooperate." The police officer was polite enough to see that she was still a character, and didn’t make a direct move. But it was also on the verge of enduring to the limit.
Julia Watkins immediately took out a cell phone and called.
But when she called, she found out that none of the people she knew had answered her phone tonight!
Everyone should have heard something and knew what had happened at Zachary’s birthday party today, and one by one, they all tacitly turned off their cell phones.
Knowing that Julia Watkins would definitely look for them, they simply turned off the phone and saved themselves from wasting their expressions.
Julia Watkins was about to cry.
The police officer looked at her, "Miss Watkins, are you still going to resist law enforcement?"
Julia Watkins got furious and swore in her heart. "Damn it, what are these people doing tonight? Why didn’t any of them answer my calls!"
The police officer was also annoyed by her and didn’t bother to be polite anymore, he just said, "Here, cuff her and take her away!"
Julia Watkins got scared.
"Handcuffs?! I can’t wear handcuffs! I’m the daughter of the Watkins family! I’m a famous lady! You’ll ruin my image like this! My wrists are meant to carry a watch from Patek Philippe, a bracelet from Bulgari and Cartier! Not for wearing handcuffs...!"
The police were pissed off and even wanted to put the ankle cuffs on her hands.

Lord Villa.
Before Mrs. Travens left, she even came to visit Lord Villa herself.
"Zachary, Yvonne, thanks to you guys retrieving Sleeping Beauty this time, after this incident, not only did it show me your status in Hiltonan, but also your personal abilities, I hope we can start more cooperation in the future!"
"That’s what we should do." Zachary smiled and nodded.
Yvonne also smiled. Just then, two little babies came running over.
"Wow! Mama, this grandma, so beautiful!"
The one who spoke was Daniel, who was a little better at speaking than Angela.
Mrs. Travens’ eyes lit up when she saw the two little babies.
She could have been a grandmother, but, as it happened, several of her children are either LGBT, unmarried or dinky, and she was a parent who fully respected her children’s freedom and ideas, but it also led to the fact that she would love to have grandchildren, but to this day she had none.
So, she was pinning her hopes on her youngest daughter, Helen, but Helen was still in school and said that she just wanted to dedicate her life to the fashion industry and was not interested in a relationship or anything. That meant it was still a long way off that she would get to hold her grandchildren.
Now, at the sight of two cute children, Mrs. Travens’ image was going out the window, squatting on the floor and hugging the two children.
"Cute." "Cute as a button." "Help."
Yvonne was a little shocked to see this scene.
"Hey," she asked Zachary in a low voice.
"So Mrs. Travens is so fond of children?"
"Yes. She has no grandchildren of her own, so she’s extra fond of children."
Mrs. Travens was now completely enthralled by the two children.
The two kids were weirdly fond of the blonde grandmother, too, and were soon crawling on the floor, making a lot of noise, and the three of them playing together. Even Mrs. Travens, with no image!
Yvonne was shocked again to see that this powerful woman outside now was acting like this.
...
She felt it was better not to overplay.
Just when she wanted to stop it, Zachary stopped her.
"It’s okay, let them play together."
"Daniel and Angela don’t have a grandmother, and Mrs. Travens doesn’t have grandchildren, so it’s good to be so in tune with each other, so let’s not mind too much."
It was true.
Yvonne nodded from the bottom of her heart.
Daniel and Angela really didn’t have a grandmother, Martha committed suicide, and Yeliz couldn’t be a grandmother-like person, not to mention that she was still locked up in a mental hospital.
Although Grandma Yesmina was also very good with them, other children had grandmothers, and they would want both of them too.
Just then, a playful, sweaty-haired Mrs. Travens rose from the floor.
"Zachary, Yvonne, I love your children so much, they are really so cute, I feel like my life has become meaningful!"
Yvonne was once again stunned, for Mrs. Travens’ life was already very meaningful and now endless people envied her.
But Yvonne still said sweetly, "If you like them, you can come here more often to play."
Mrs. Travens nodded, then said, "But...I have a presumptuous request."
Yvonne and Zachary exchanged a glance and blinked.
No way...she wouldn’t even be robbing the kids, right?
.Instead, Mrs. Travens laughed, "Relax, I’m not going to rob the kids."
"Except just now, Angela told me that she doesn’t have a grandmother, so I want to be Angela’s god-grandmother!"
Pfft...
Yvonne almost couldn’t hold her astonishment back.
It was really a family of old people and children, they chatted with each other so quickly.
"Mrs. Travens, do you understand Angrish?" Yvonne asked in Abarish in surprise.
"Yes, Angria is very powerful these days, and it’s very popular in Arcus high society to learn Angrish, and everyone in the Travens family has to learn Angrish, and I don’t
learn it very well, I can only understand it, I can’t speak it. But several of my children are learning it exceptionally well!"
Yvonne couldn’t help but praise her in her heart.
Angria was really getting stronger, so all those foreigners had to learn Angrish language to grab business with the Angrish.
"Daniel, Angela, what do you think? Do you guys want a godmother?"
Although they didn’t know much about the concept of "god-grandmother", they knew that sometimes they watched TV and saw that everyone else had two grandmothers who were so nice to the children, and they wanted another grandmother too.
But whenever they asked where Grandma for their Dad’s side was, their Dad was silent. Mom then said that Grandma had turned into a star in the sky.
The children then asked, "So will Grandmother turn from a star to a person and play with us later?"
"Can the stars hold us just as well?"
"Can we wash the stars’ feet too?"
Every time this happened, Yvonne felt sad.
*
The two little kids’ heads immediately nodded like dolls now that they heard they were going to have another grandmother too.
"Yes! Yes!"
Mrs. Travens’ heart melted at the sight.
"Zachary, Yvonne, the children love me, and I love the children, please let me be their god-grandmother! I’ll give them lots and lots of presents, little castles, little cars, all kinds of pretty little clothes, I’m definitely not here to steal the kids! Please, God!"
Yvonne was speechless.
Mrs. Travens was also an old kid.
No matter how powerful a person was, they always had a weakness.
For example, Yvonne was Zachary’s weakness, and the young grandchildren were Mrs. Travens’ weakness.
...
Yvonne looked at the fashionable grandmother who was completely out of control in front of her, and couldn’t believe that this was the top goddess who had just threatened to punish Julia Watkins.
She was too embarrassed to refuse.
One more person to love the kids anyway, and the kids loved the grandma, so what was to say no?
She and Zachary looked at each other, and each understood the meaning in the other’s eyes.
Then, Zachary said, "In that case, then we are settled."
"As of today, you’re their godmother!"
"YES! YES! YES!" Mrs. Travens was so happy as a child now, jumping right up and down, and Yvonne was worried she might strain her back!
The two babies were sweet as they could be, too, ran over and kept shouting, "Grandma!" "Grandma!" "Grandma!"
They also didn’t know what it meant to have a bigshot like Mrs. Travens as their grandmother, so they thought that all grandmothers in the world were nice and Mrs. Travens was nice, so they were super happy.
*
At night.
Yvonne lay in bed tossing and turning.
Realizing that she couldn’t sleep, Zachary said meaningfully, "Honey, since you can’t sleep, why don’t we..."
Yvonne gave him a blank look.
"No, the last time in the ballroom... It still hurts now."
"Ahem."
At the end of the last birthday party, Yvonne’s words were touching to the core.
Zachary could not hold it back and...
"I was just thinking that it was a little overwhelming for a moment that someone as powerful as Mrs. Travens is going to be Daniel and Angela’s grandmother."
She certainly thought her own children were better, her own children were the best in the world, but even then she didn’t know why Mrs. Travens had to be the grandmother of their two children.
Moreover, Mrs. Travens said that she had no other "godchildren" or "goddaughters" besides Daniel and Angela, and that she would not treat others like this in the future.
She said she liked Angrish kids, they were smart, studied well, and were filial. Unlike many kids in their country who only knew how to drink, party and smoke.
"No matter what the purpose is, as long as we as mom and dad are there to protect them all the way, there won’t be any problems." Zachary said, "And if Mrs. Travens really loves Daniel and Angela, then it’s good to have one more person in the world who loves them."
"Right." Yvonne nodded.
And she believed that Mrs. Travens was speaking from her heart.
It could be seen by the way she looked at the two kids.
Having both been mothers, she could see that Mrs. Travens really liked children.
"What’s more, she’s usually in Arcus and doesn’t come too much, so even if she recognizes her as god-grandmother, it shouldn’t have any impact on our lives."
Yvonne thought about it. So she didn’t put this matter on her mind.
*
After a few more days, the matter of Julia Watkins was made public.
This time, things went completely off the rails.
Julia Watkins would be facing jail time, and despite the Watkins family’s attempts to bail her out, justice was rigid and there was no room for them to do anything.
Julia Watkins was involved in a case that related to a huge amount of money and was embarrassed in front of foreign friends, so jail time for several years was surely inevitable.
After all, it was considered a family scandal, and the Watkins family saw Julia’s situation, and they were ready to break their backs and sacrifice Julia.
In order to minimize their losses, the Watkins family’s people all differentiate themselves from Julia, then sued her separately, recovered their various share rights, and tried every means to suppress various media opinions.
