Chapter 240


    Charlotte turned around and saw Rodneying down the stairs and quickly called out sweetly,


    "Grandpa. You''ve finallye out of your room. Are you hungry? I''ll go prepare some food for you."


    Rodney shook his head, "I don''t want to eat."


    He sighed and said mncholy, "I always think of Stephanie when I was young, and when I think of


    Stephanie, I think of Mia again. They are all gone, and I am left alone in this world."


    Cecelia heard Rodney mention Mia Cole and rushed forward to help him, "Why would you talk about


    Mom again. We are all with you, how can you live alone? Dad, if you keep talking nonsense, I will really


    get angry."


    Mia Cole was Cecelia’s mother-inw, that was, Rodney''s original wife, and she was very close to


    Ralph. Mia Cole herself hade from a wealthy family, and Rodney was also the son of a family of


    power. The story of the two had always been legendary in the army.


    Mia Cole and Stephanie were close friends when they were young. So the two families had always had


    a good rtionship, which led to theter marriage contract.


    Originally, it was a marriage that could only exist in legendary. But unfortunately, when Mia Cole gave


    birth to Ralph, she had a postpartum infection hemorrhage, and died, and then Rodney had never


    married anyone else, raising Ralph all alone.


    Cecelia had never seen what Mia Cole looked like, not even a single photo.


    Rodney always shut himself up in his room alone, staring at the empty wall. She knew that Rodney was


    an infatuated man who had missed Mia Cole all his life. Throughout the Heath resident, not a single


    picture of Mia Cole could be found. It was said that once an elder of the Heath family wanted Rodney to


    cheer up, destroyed all traces of Mia Cole, and did not even leave him a single picture, a little


    remembrance, fearing that he would miss her whenever he saw anything about her.


    This time, Stephanie''s death, undoubtedly evoked Rodney''s memories of the past.


    Cecelia sighed and frowned sadly. She should have known that she shouldn''t have let the old man go


    to the mourning hall to offer his condolences.


    But she could never hide this kind of thing from him.


    Charlotte knew nothing about the Heath family''s past and it was the first time she heard her


    grandfather mention Mia Cole when she came to the Heath family.


    She observed their expressions carefully, not daring to interrupt.


    Rodney waved to Charlotte, gesturing for her toe over.


    Charlotte walked up to the front of the room in a good manner and called sweetly, "Grandpa. Don''t be

    sad, I will be good to you. What do you want to eat? I''ll go to the kitchen to make it for you."


    Rodney shook his head, his voice clear and loud, "I''m not hungry. You, the Heath family''s only


    bloodline, I will not let you regret. About this Luther, when the funeral is over, I will go to bring him to


    you in a few days. I''ll make sure he could give us a clear exnation."


    "Dad!" Cecelia stopped, "Stephanie just died and he has to be in mourning. Do you think it’s


    appropriate?"


    "What''s wrong with that?! Charlotte''s happiness is most important. Didn''t you say that that’s a fake


    marriage? If I ask him directly myself, can he even turn me down? Even if he has to mourn, he can get


    engaged first, and then hold the wedding after the mourning period." Rodney got irritated, "He''s the one


    who''s wrong in the first ce. Now Charlotte’s belly is getting big, and he still wants to abandon her?"


    "Dad, take it easy, be careful of your health." Cecelia knew she just could never stop the stubbornness


    of the old man.


    She didn''t insist anymore, "I know, wait for me to ask about the situation first, and then you can step in,


    okay?"
