Chapter 710 A New Georgy-girl:>Ep6

• "I've lived with this family nearlyfifty years now, since I was younger than you are now, Georgy, since Will's father was just a toddler. I was married once, a long time ago, when I was still just a teenager. My husband was a soldier, a Royal Marine, and he wasn't much older than me, but we wanted to be married so our families gave in. He was killed in Northern Ireland, and I had to find a job, my family couldn't support me forever. I answered a job advert your grandmother had placed in the Labour Exchange, looking for a nanny and housekeeper, and here I stayed."
• She looked sadly at me, her eyes soft and sorrowful.
• "Your poor, dear father was just two years old when I first came here, Will, and I have always been very happy here; this was my refuge, the home and family denied me when I lost my husband, and I have loved every moment of my life here. Your grandparents never treated me like a servant, and your father was the son I never had. Your grandmother and I raised your father, I watched him grow into a fine young man, and I was there the day your grandparents welcomed your mother into the family."
