Chapter 1532


    "Good, good, good..." In fact, Grandpa Kyle knew that Julien would be bringing Vanessa and Lawrie


    home, so he had already prepared some gifts beforehand and nned to give them out when Julien


    formally introduced them to him. "Vanessa, Lawrie, I''m very happy to finally meet you two. Make


    sure you two visit me more often, alright?"


    When Vanessa heard Grandpa Kyle saying that Lawrie resembled Julien, Vanessa''s gaze began to


    go back and forth on Julien and Lawrie''s faces. To be honest, although she knew that Lawrie was


    Julien''s child, she had never thought that the two of them looked that simr.


    But when Grandpa Kyle mentioned it, Vanessa thought that they did look alike, as if they were


    carved from the same mold. Their eyes were of the same shape, both very attractive. Their faces,


    nose bridges, and right down to the shape of their ears resembled each other.


    Apart from the fact that Julien was an adult and Lawrie was just a child, the two of them did look


    exactly the same.


    Looking at this father and son, Vanessa immediately did a facepalm. They resembled each other so


    much but how did she not notice it at all? If she had realised it earlier, she wouldn''t have to suffer so


    much over the years.


    Grandpa Kyle was speaking to her, but Vanessa, this foolish girl, was still standing there, not


    uttering a word. Noticing that Vanessa was still in a trance, Julien raised his arm and gave Vanessa


    a gentle nudge. "Vanessa, this is my grandfather. Don''t just stand there. Hurry up and greet him."


    "Grandpa, nice to meet you!" Grandpa Kyle was an amiable old man. He had grey hair and wrinkled


    skin, but all of these could not hide his youthful spirit. Even now, it was not hard to tell that he was a


    handsome man.


    "Yes, yes, yes... We have new additions to the Kyle family today. It''s a great day worth celebration."


    Grandpa Kyle nodded repeatedly and smiled from ear to ear. "Vanessa, this is a gift that I''ve


    prepared for you. I hope you like it."


    Vanessa epted the gift with both hands and said, "Thank you, Grandpa!"


    Then, Grandpa Kyle handed another gift to Lawrie. "Lawrie, this is a gift from me to you. I hope you


    will like it."


    Lawrie imitated Vanessa and reached out his hands to ept the gift. "Thank you,


    greatgrandfather!"


    Grandpa Kyle stroked Lawrie''s head and said, "My children are all grown up! And I''m indeed old


    now! Time really waits for no one, but I have noints. If I am old, so be it. After all, this is the


    path everyone must eventually go through."


    As Grandpa Kyle spoke, tears rolled down from the corners of his eyes. It turned out that he was


    reminded of histe wife again. He spoke to her silently in his heart, "Rana, are you seeing this?


    Not only is Jayden married, Julien, our youngest grandson is married as well and he even has a son


    now. If only you were here with me to watch them build up their families. But you are too cruel to


    me. You left me here by myself and went to a ce so far away. I''ve been waiting for you in my


    dreams all these years, but you''re not willing to see me."


    Since Rena Brown''s death, Grandpa Kyle''s health had been deteriorating. However, he managed to


    hang on up till this day.


    At this moment, he realised that all his children and grandchildren had their own families. Now that


    everyone was doing so well in life, Grandpa Kyle felt every burden in his heart had melted away. He


    heaved a sigh of relief and felt like his body was giving way.


    "What''s wrong, Grandpa?" Julien reacted in time and caught Grandpa Kyle from falling to the


    ground. "Are you feeling unwell?"


    Grandpa Kyle shook his head. "No, Julien. I just missed your grandmother too much out of a


    sudden so I really want to go keep herpany in the afterlife. Your grandmother had been in poor


    health since she was young, so she needs someone by her side to take care of her. I haven''t been


    taking care of her in the past few years, so I was wondering how she is doing."


    "Grandpa Kyle..."


    Julien wanted to say that there was no such thing as the afterlife. Death was like a me going out,


    once it was gone, it would be gone forever. However, Julien could not say it out loud. His


    grandfather missed his grandmother a lot, and she was the person he was most reluctant to leave


    behind. Unfortunately, she left the world before him.


    Thinking of his deceased grandmother, Julien took a nce at Vanessa.


    If one day, he and Vanessa had to face death, he hoped that she would die before him. Because he


    knew that she did not want to be left alone in this world, and he definitely would never leave her


    behind by herself.


    "Julien, I''ve met Vanessa and Lawrie already.


    Why don''t you take them around first? I want to rest for a while."


    Julien said worriedly, "Grandpa, we''ll stay here and keep youpany."


    At this time, Julien absolutely could not leave Grandpa Kyle alone in the backyard, so he hurriedly


    contacted their family doctor. After a thorough check up, the doctor reassured Julien that there was


    nothing critical with Grandpa Kyle''s condition, and it was only then Julien could feel at ease.


    Vanessa said guiltily, "If I hadn''t visited, Grandpa wouldn''t have be so excited that he almost


    fainted. It''s all my fault."

    Julien red at Vanessa and said, "I''m warning you, Vanessa. Don''t you take the me for


    everything. Is he not allowed to be happy when he sees his own granddaughterinw and great-


    grandson?"


    Vanessa said sullenly, "Okay."


    Knowing that Grandpa Kyle was feeling unwell, everyone at home rushed over to see him.


    However, they did not dare to disturb his rest. After all, the most important thing for elders was to


    have adequate rest. Hence, everyone waited outside at the courtyard, and made sure that he was


    doing fine before returning to the living room.


    "Larry! Lawrie!" Looking at these two boys, Silvia just could not help but want to go near them and


    shower them with affection. But when they became tired and sleepy, the first person they would


    think of was still their mothers and not her. Because of that, Silvia was extremely downhearted.


    When everyone was in the living room, Silvia stayed in the courtyard by herself, staring nkly into


    the sky.


    Thinking about it, Silvia''s lips curved slightly, forming a faint smile. She was imagining a beautiful


    scenario. In that scenario, she finally had a child of her own. Her child was running around her in


    circles and calling her ''Mom'' in a sweet voice.


    "Baby..." Looking at the beautiful little child who was circling around her, Silvia wanted to hold her in


    her arms. She reached out her arms only to find that it was all in her head. Not only was she unable


    to hold her child, but the beautiful fantasy in her mind also shattered in an instant. Silvia was so


    distressed that she felt like her heart was going to break into pieces.


    Why?


    Why?


    Why must the gods be so cruel to her?


    She wanted a child so badly, but they refused


    to give her one.


    Silvia rubbed her abdomen and suddenly gave herself a tight p on the face. "It''s all my fault. It''s


    all my fault! Me! And my useless womb! If I could just try a little harder, Jayden wouldn''t be childless


    even after marrying me for so many years. His younger siblings have their own children now, but he


    was still yet a father and it''s very likely that he might never get to be one for the rest of his life."
