“Kids, this is the grandpa I mentioned. He’s the Hunt family member who likes your mother the most
and who your father fears the most.” Francine dly introduced Timothy to the children. After
interacting with them for a few days, she hade to understand their thought process – anyone
friendly to Renee and hostile to Stefan was an ally.
She had be their ally by criticizing Stefan on asion, and she hoped that by introducing Timothy
in such a way, the children would warm to him.
To Francine’s delight, her n worked. Adie, who was usually cautious, approached Timothy on his
own.
He raised his head and looked at Timothy’s wrinkled face, then gently hooked his finger around the old
man’s wrinkled finger and murmured, “Great-grandpa, I can tell you’re a good person. Thank you for
looking after my mother.”
When Abby saw this, she went up to her brother and happily told him, “Adie, you finally agree with me
that people who look good are good. We should assess people based on their looks!”
She then turned around and smiled charmingly as she grasped Timothy’s other hand in her soft,
delicate palm. “My name is Abby, Great-grandpa. You’re the sweetest old man I’ve ever met. You must
have been attractive when you were younger, so I’m certain you’re a decent guy!”
Timothy was taken aback by the two youngsters, and he burst into joyfulughter. He clutched the
children’s hands firmly and smiled heartily, tears streaming down his cheeks. “You two are my great-
grandchildren, and the Hunt family’s heirs. I never imagined this day would arrive.”
He looked up at the sky, and smiled fondly. “Are you seeing this, Maurice? They are Stefan and
Renee’s children. The Hunt and Evertheart families will go on. I can finally face you in the afterlife!”
When Alexander heard this, he grimaced, his eyes wet with unshed tears. “What are you talking about,
Dad? We just got reunited with the kids. We should be grateful for this opportunity, so don’t say
anything negative. You’re going to live a long life.”
Francine’s eyes welled up with tears as well. “That’s right. You’re still alive and well. You’ve recently
reconnected with the children, and you must remain with them until they reach adulthood. You have to
see the birth of their grandkids!”
“I know my health best,” Timothy dered, waving his hand and taking a deep breath with difficulty. “I’m
already d you attempted to find me an ideal heart that would allow me to live my life. God has been
kind to me in allowing me to live till I see my great-grandchildren. I have no regrets if I die today!”
When Adie overheard this, he couldn’t help but be concerned about Timothy. “Great-grandfather, are
you sick?”
“Yes. I’m bing old, and my body is weakening… But don’t worry,” Timothy remarked as he stroked
Adie on the head. “It’spletely natural. Humans will age, and death is both the end and the
beginning of life. I feel we will cross paths again for sure.”
Francine frowned and sighed. “Dad, that’s too deep. The kids won’t understand.”
“No. I see what you’re saying.” Adie’s lovely face was serious as he nodded. “Great-grandpa is saying
that his life will never end. He will reappear in our lives in a different form.”
“Oh, I understand now!” Abby murmured excitedly, blinking her wide eyes. “One day, Great-grandpa
will transform into a star and guard us at night. Or maybe he’ll transform into a tree and protect us from
the wind and rain, or transform into a cat and keep uspany.”
