Chapter 752


    After half an hour, Ste looked at the pile of dolls in front of her and got into silence.


    She originally tried to use this method to abate ine’s shopping desire.


    But she did not expect that ine would be so good at this...


    At this time, she heard ine’s voice again, “I got another one out!”


    Uh-oh.


    When ine was about to continue, Ste said, “Okay, ine, that’s enough.”


    “I will mp a few more!”


    Ste licked her lips. “I am a little thirsty. So let’s go buy some drinks.”


    Hearing this, ine had to give up. “Okay, then let’s drink something first and thene backter.”


    Ste hurriedly pulled her away.


    The dolls were stuffed into various shopping bags and taken back to the car by those bodyguards.


    Sitting in the store and teasing the little one for a while, ine suddenly felt exhausted and slumped on


    the table.


    Ste asked, “What’s wrong? Weren’t you so energetic just now?”


    “Nothing. I just felt that everything seems to have changed...”


    Seeing her serious look, Ste said, “Since your great-grandfather is still alive, you should be happy.”


    ine replied with her chin on her arms, “Yes. My great-grandpa is still alive, but...”


    She didn’t finish her words but Ste understood what she meant.


    Ste said, “Since his body has not been found yet, he may be still living.”


    ine simply sighed. “Maybe his corpse no longer exists.”


    After saying that, she looked at Ste and said, “Ste, I know my Uncle Caesar did a lot of bad things,


    and also caused Sherry to lose her child, but I still can’t hate him. Is there something wrong with me?”


    Ste smiled and said, “No. Just like what I said before, he has hurt a lot of people, but he will always


    be your uncle. Only you can feel how he is to you. Whether you hate him or not depends on how he


    treats you.”


    ine stared at the cup on the table and said, “That day at the graveyard, if Darnell hadn''t appear,


    would my uncle really kill my father and everyone in the James family?”

    Ste replied, “Yes.”


    ine sighed again, not knowing what to say.


    Ste also knew that her current feelings towards Caesar wereplicated. But someone like Caesar,


    although he was evil, he seemed to have a chance of turning back just because he still had a slight


    trace of conscience.


    But only people that were terribly hurt by him felt how vicious he was.


    After a while, ine said, “Before my uncle left, he said something to me.”


    Ste retrieved her thoughts and asked, “What is it?”


    “He said...” ine spoke slowly.


    ine recalled what happened at the bank that day. Caesar said those words in a low voice, and he


    sounded like he was warning her.


    "Don’t trust Darnell. After he cleans up the James families, he willy hands on your great-grandfather


    and your father.”


    After ine repeated his words, Ste thought about it and asked, “Did you believe what he said?”


    ine looked ahead in a daze. “I don’t know... But that day, Darnell admitted that the death of those


    n elders had something to do with him.”


    “Really?” Ste asked.


    ine nodded, “Although it was Uncle Caesar who did it, ording to him, Darnell knew all these


    things in advance, and he simply did not stop it. And he even...”


    ine did not know the details of Darnell’s involvement in this thing.


    She murmured again, “During this period of time, I thought that Darnell was not the kind of person


    described by the rumors. I thought I misunderstood him. But I didn’t expect him to be so cruel. Those


    elders are stubborn and old-fashioned, but they sort of raised us up when we were kids. He


    shouldn''t...”


    “ine,” Ste interrupted her, “you do have prejudice against Darnell.”


    ine got stunned and tilted her head, not understanding what she meant.


    Ste said slowly, “Let’s just say Darnell knew that Caesar would kill those elders and he did not do


    anything to stop it. He was wrong about this matter. But you were wrong about one thing”


    “What is it?” ine asked.


    “Those people were killed by Caesar, not Darnell,” Ste replied.


    She added, “I don’t mean to excuse Darnell. But if Caesar hadn''t nned all these, Darnell wouldn''t


    allow things to go like this. You can me Darnell for not saving those elders, but you must be clear


    about one thing. The man whomitted the murder was Caesar.”


    ine was a bit confused and said, “I see...”


    Ste did not speak to her about theplicated forces of the James family. Since those elders had


    passed away, it was useless to talk about these things any more.


    She never felt that Darnell was a good person in the true sense of the word.


    There were not so many good people in this world. rence and herself weren''t, for sure.


    This was the way it was in this world. Everybody would n carefully for what they truly wanted.


    Though something might look terrible from outsiders’ perspective, it was normal for them to fight for


    what they wanted.


    But on this matter, Ste thought ine should not dwell on such a strange point.


    She drank some water and calm down. Maybe she was just talking some nonsense.


    When she looked up and saw ine’s serious look, she stopped talking.


    Well, let things just stop here.


    After a while, the little one probably got a little ufortable sitting in the stroller and wanted to get


    out.


    Ste took him in her arms and said to ine, “Let’s go have lunch. After that, I will take him to the


    children’s yground downstairs for a while.”


    ine got up and said, “Okay. There is a particrly delicious restaurant upstairs. I will take you there.”


    “Let’s go.”


    When going upstairs, the little one did not want to sit down anymore. After getting down from Ste’s


    embrace, he ran forward happily.


    For fear that he might fall when toddling forward, Ste held his little hand.


    ine pushed the stroller and followed behind them. When seeing this scene, she felt her heart was


    about to melt.


    Human cubs were just too cute.


    When eating lunch, ine asked, “Ste, are you going back to City N soon?”


    Ste nodded, “I also wanted to ask you this. Will you go back to City N?”


    ine let out a long breath. “Not in a short time. My father is angry with me, so I have to behave well.


    When he agrees, I will go there. If I hide from him again, he''s truly gonna drive me out one day.”


    Ste smiled, “Then you should wait a little longer. When these unwritten rules of the James family are


    abolished, you cane to City N to enjoy yourself whenever you want.”
