Chapter 271 His First Love
The three grandsons were extremely protective of Amelia and always treated her like a princess.
Because of this, Ursula really hoped to see it again someday.

Amelia looked at Ursula. She could read her grandmother’s thoughts all too well and knew what she longed for.
Unfortunately, things could never go back to the way they were.
A broken mirror could never be fully mended. Even if it were pieced back together, the cracks would always remain.
It was impossible for her to be like she was before with the rest of the Nygards.
Still, since Ursula was already old, she didn’t have the heart to be too blunt and make her sad.
“Yeah,” Amelia answered simply, then changed the subject.
“Grandma, I sent Marcelo and Aunt Thea away because I actually have something to ask private.”
“Oh? What is it? Go ahead.” Ursula’s mood was still a little down.

Amelia always called her brother by his name. Clearly, that rift wouldn’t heal anytime soon.
“Grandma, I wanted to ask you, did Mr. Nygard ever have a first love?”
Amelia didn’t beat around the bush. Her relationship with her grandmother might not be as close as with her grandfather, but she was genuinely good to her.
That’s why she could talk freely to her and didn’t need to beat around the bush.
“He did. How did you know? Did something happen?”
Ursula looked startled, not even noticing that Amelia had called her father “Mr. Nygard” again. For a moment, she thought something serious had occurred.
“It’s nothing big. I was just curious what kind of person his first love was and why they didn’t end up together.”
“Well, isn’t that obvious? Your grandfather and I broke them up. We absolutely didn’t agree to let that woman marry into the Nygards.”

Ursula spoke openly and didn’t think this was a big deal.

Back in their day, marriages were all decided by the parents, especially in wealthy and powerful families.
“Why though? Because she wasn’t good enough for the Nygards?“”
Amelia had actually guessed it. The reason Regina and Gianna hated her grandmother so much was most likely this.
This also explained why the people who poisoned Ursula and almost killed her were probably Gianna and her mother.
Those two weren’t just rebellious. They were ungrateful, cruel, and ruthless. They would do anything to get what they wanted.
Thinking about this, a hint of fierce anger flashed in Amelia’s calm eyes.
“Not entirely because of that,” Ursula said frankly. “Mostly because I just didn’t like her, and her family background was too messy.”
Though arranged marriages were still common back then, Conrad and Ursula were quite open- minded.
If their son really liked someone, it wouldn’t be a big problem even if they weren’t equal in social status.
The Nygards back then was even more glorious and unique than it is now, so supporting their in–law’s family would not have been a problem at all.
But that woman looked like she was full of schemes, and her father was just as shady.
“Her name was Regina. I wouldn’t say she was evil, but you could always see the ambition in her
eyes.
“Back then, her family ran a business in medicinal herbs and growing them. It actually fit quite well with the core industry of our family’s business.
“The Jenkins was quite a well–known family too, and Regina’s father was a smart guy.
“It was such a shame that he did not use it in a good way. He was always cutting corners and even dared to sell classified pharmaceutical formulas.
“In the end, he was sent to prison for life. Even with sentence reductions, he won’t be out anytime soon. The Jenkins had basically fallen apart afterwards.”
As Ursula spoke, she sighed, genuinely pitying how a once–promising family had destroyed
