Chapter 338 It's Time to Give an Explanation
Raymond's pat did give Louis some courage.
He was ultimately of the Sackler family bloodline.
And the Sackler family only had Margaret left.
Louis walked down the steps, heading towards Margaret.
Each step down the stairs was a new recognition of his identity for Louis.
It was a new fusion of the Carnegie family's ingrained habits and the Sackler family's blood running through his veins.
Louis clearly remembered the motherly love Francesca had given him from childhood.
Although Francesca had tried her best to groom him to inherit Hawke Corporation.
But it was undeniable that Francesca truly loved him.
The motherly love he should have had was never lacking.
Louis also respected Francesca deeply.
However, at the moment he walked towards Margaret, Louis also had Luna's image in his mind.
Although he hadn't seen Luna many times, the impression was extremely deep.
Because Paige loved Luna so much.
It was clear that Luna also loved Paige very much.
But fate seemed to have played a big joke on them.
Now, the only thing that comforted Louis was that he had promised to give Luna a kidney transplant.
No matter what factors influenced his decision at the time, it became the only bond between him and Luna.
Fortunately, he agreed.
Fortunately, Paige loved Luna so much and did everything for her.
Louis walked down the stairs step by step and stood in front of Margaret.
He couldn't bring himself to say anything first.
Margaret, however, kept looking at Louis, and as she looked, her eyes welled up with tears.
She had always known that the Carnegie family had focused on grooming Louis, and he was an excellent heir.
It was because Louis was excellent enough that she wanted to take him for Xena back then.
She was really foolish to be deceived by Xena at that time!
In the end, it was Margaret who spoke first. "Paige came back last night."
The name Paige still triggered a conditioned reflex in Louis.
He immediately looked at Margaret.
Paige had been to the Sackler family, and Margaret had come personally to see him; it couldn't be for anything else.
Louis asked, "Paige told you everything?"
Margaret nodded, "Yes, Paige told me everything. I came to see you and to know if you despise the Sackler family. If you don't, I..."
Margaret felt somewhat guilty in front of Louis.
Louis knew how she had bullied Paige; he had seen it all.
Now, hearing that he was her grandson, she came running over. Margaret feared that Louis would look down on her as his grandmother, and the Sackler family didn't have the same power as the Carnegie family. Louis might not even consider the Sackler family. Although the truth was out, the Carnegie family servants still called Louis Mr. Carnegie.
Margaret had heard it clearly just now.
The Carnegie family hadn't abandoned Louis because of this, and whether Louis would choose the Sackler family was uncertain.
Margaret just wanted to fight for the Sackler family one more time.
The Louis in front of her was indeed her grandson. But even with Paige, she could still speak to her. After all, Paige had been in her arms since birth. No matter how bad their relationship was, they had interacted as family.
But with Louis, aside from that blood relationship, they were almost like ordinary acquaintances.
Trying to turn such an ordinary relationship into a family bond suddenly, Margaret knew it was difficult!
Louis was also very confused. The relationships on the Carnegie family side had already caught him off guard. Now Margaret had come looking for him, and Louis couldn't think clearly at all.
His impression and goodwill towards the Sackler family were all tied to his biological mother, Luna.
As for Margaret, he felt indifferent because he had always seen how Margaret treated Paige and Luna.
Looking at Margaret, Louis said, "Give me some time. Paige suddenly disappeared, and my mom is anxious and sick. The doctor just left."
He didn't mean to look down on the Sackler family.
Now that the truth was out, he had no choice!
No matter what, the Sackler family was his home.
Margaret was his only remaining relative in this world.
Even though it might be difficult to develop any familial bond with Margaret in her lifetime, Louis understood that blood ties couldn't be severed.
He just needed time to calm down and think clearly.
Hearing his words, Margaret felt much more at ease. At least Louis didn't say he looked down on the Sackler family or that he wouldn't return to the Sackler family.
Such an answer already satisfied Margaret.
She nodded, "Okay." Margaret spoke with some excitement.
Just as she was about to say something more, a maid who took care of Francesca came down from upstairs and walked over to Margaret, saying, "Mrs. Sackler, Mrs. Carnegie would like to see you. Do you have time?"
Margaret turned her head slightly, blinked quickly, then turned back and said to the maid, "Yes."
Margaret also had many questions she wanted to clarify.
Perhaps only Francesca could explain what Paige had told her.
Margaret got up and followed the maid.
After taking a few steps, she turned back to look at Louis.
Louis wanted to know what Francesca wanted to say to Margaret after waking up and knowing she was here.
But he also knew that if he wasn't called, he wouldn't hear anything even if he went.
Margaret was brought to Francesca's room.
In the Baroque-style luxurious room, Francesca was wearing loose pajamas, half-lying on the couch with a fever patch on her forehead.
The emotional turmoil and anxiety over Paige's disappearance had suddenly made her ill.
After the maid brought Margaret in, she closed the door and left.
The room was left with only Francesca and Margaret.
Hearing the sound, Francesca opened her eyes slightly, "Mrs. Sackler, please sit down. I apologize for my rudeness."
Margaret walked forward and sat down near Francesca. "Mrs. Carnegie, thank you for raising Louis so well."
Francesca sat up slightly, "You know everything?"
Margaret nodded.
Francesca sighed in relief and relaxed, leaning back. "I think you should know, you saw Louis first. At this point, there are some things I should explain to you. About Paige and Louis, why things turned out this way, I owe you an explanation!"
