Chapter 460 The Principle of Food Incompatibility
Ophelia and Finnegan left, ignoring whatever Tobias was muttering behind them.
As soon as the two left, Tobias snatched the money from Riley's hand. "I'll keep it safe."
Riley, who had been oppressed for almost all her life, didn't argue with Tobias.
Magnus' case was resolved quickly, and later, Tobias found legal aid without having to pay for a lawyer.
Tobias sued the perpetrator for civil compensation, and he actually got a sum of money, a total of one hundred thousand dollars.
Rex didn't have much money in his name, only tens of thousands, and through forced execution, Tobias ended up with only ten thousand dollars.
Having ten thousand dollars was still better than having nothing at all.
Although Tobias was quite dissatisfied, he took the money and went back to his hometown after attending Magnus' funeral.
At the funeral, Riley cried a lot, but Tobias didn't shed a tear from start to finish.
Ophelia couldn't help feeling a bit angry. However, since Tobias wasn't sad and wouldn't cry, it was just sickening, even if he faked a few tears.
Winter in New York was getting colder and colder.
Lucky was gradually gaining weight and becoming chubby.
The banquet for the Abbott family's granddaughter was definitely grand. Celia and Jude had been preparing for it early on.
Ophelia didn't care for that much. She just stayed at home with Lucky every day, slowly moving on from her sadness.
New life brought new hope. Watching Lucky change day by day, Ophelia couldn't help but feel that life was fragile yet resilient.
The banquet prepared for Lucky was scheduled for late January.
New York was freezing cold at that time. Lucky, fair and tender, was quite adorable. Finnegan would come home every day and spend time with his daughter first.
Even if Lucky fell asleep, Finnegan would still watch her for a while. He never grew tired of it.
Lucky's full name was Warmie Abbott. As Finnegan had said before, in this cold winter, his daughter could warm his heart, and that was why she was called Warmie.
After Warmie was born, she indeed brought good luck to the company. Several projects were successfully implemented.
Wilder and Catherine in France, upon hearing about Warmie's birth, sent their blessings and gifts, which surprised Ophelia greatly.
Despite only a brief encounter, they received such kindness.
The day before Warmie's hundredth-day banquet, Ophelia took Warmie to the cemetery to visit her mother.
"Mom, look, this is your granddaughter, Lucky, full name Warmie Abbott. She's cute, isn't she?" Ophelia held Warmie in front of her mother's grave, regretfully saying, "Mom, you never heard Warmie call you grandma. How nice it would have been if you were still alive."
Feeling upset, Ophelia taught Warmie. "Warmie, say grandma. She's your grandma."
Warmie's round eyes rolled around, cute and adorable. As a baby of just over three months, she didn't understand separation and death.
Finnegan said, "I'll hold her."
He was worried about tiring Ophelia out.
Ophelia handed Warmie to Finnegan and left a bouquet before leaving the cemetery.
On the way, Ophelia said, "I'll go to the Mexican restaurant later. You can drop us off there."
Finnegan had to go to the company. He had a meeting in the afternoon and a contract to sign with Mr. Mark, who was engaged in e-commerce.
"Alright. Take good care of Warmie."
When they arrived at the restaurant, Finnegan dropped them off. Tate had been busy with private issues and wasn't in New York these days.
"If you want to go back later, have the driver pick you up. It's cold outside, so don't catch a cold."
After repeatedly reminding them, Finnegan finally left.
Only after he left did Ophelia carry Warmie into the restaurant. Addison came over with a smile. "Ophelia, Warmie looks different every day, so cute, like a doll. Come on. Give her to me."
Warmie clung to Ophelia's neck and didn't want others to hold her.
Ophelia smiled, "She is a bit shy."
"Let's go upstairs and sit for a while. It's cold at the entrance." Addison helped push the stroller.
Ophelia hadn't planned to come here today, so she didn't bring a nanny with her when she went out.
As soon as they went upstairs, there was a commotion in the private room on the second floor, and a waiter came out. "Addison, Ophelia, a guest is causing trouble, saying our fish isn't fresh."
Addison said, "I'll go check it out. Ophelia, wait a minute."
"It's okay. I'll go take a look too."
Ophelia carried Warmie and went over. As soon as she reached the door, she heard the customer inside saying, "Is your chef trying to poison us? Eating cheese and lemon juice together is harmful, and also, drinking milk with citrus fruits is damaging to the body. You're running a restaurant but not understanding these food incompatibilities? Give us a reasonable explanation!"
