Chapter 1137
The butler said, âWeâre here. You can go in, Iâll wait outsideâ
âYou can take a break, Iâll sit with them for a while.â Grandpa Augustine entered the room alone, presenting a bouquet of flowers to the two photos in the
room.
He sat on the cushion, silently looking at their photos, âSilvia, are you still mad at me? You have every right to be. If I hadnât left you guys and gone back to the Capital that year, you wouldnât have been driven to suicide with our child by those bastards. Even after getting revenge for you and making those who bullied you pay, I still canât find happiness.
âSilvia, after all these years, I still canât get over my guilt. How about you? Are you still mad at me? Are you and our child doing well in the other world? Silvia, if possible, letâs be husband and wife again in the next life to make up for the regrets of this one. What do you think?
âSilvia, I told you a few days ago that I met a girl. I have a strange affection for her and want to take her as my granddaughter. Today, I officially acknowledged her as my granddaughter. Her name is Cornelia, a very good girl. If you were still here, if our child were still here, our granddaughter might be the same age as her. I consider her my granddaughter because I see you in her, and also because our granddaughter should be this young.â
He chuckled, then continued, âI was planning on bringing her to see you, but she seemed a bit down, so I let her rest first. But donât worry, Iâll definitely bring her to see you tomorrow. Silvia, if we had a granddaughter, what would you name her? I think the name Nelly is pretty, sounds like something youâd pick. Silvia, if only you could talk to me.â
Grandpa Augustine kept talking, while the butler outside sighed.
Old Augustine was really a sentimental guy. After all these years, he still couldnât forget about his late wife. As long as he was in the Capital, he basically chatted with his wife everyday. He told her everything he saw and heard outside, as if she never left, as if she had always been by his side.
âIs Augustine in there again?â Alfredo suddenly appeared next to the butler, without making a sound.
The butler was startled, âYes, heâs in there.â
Alfredo asked, âHas he been like this all these years?â
The butler replied, âYes.â
Alfredo said, âIâll go see him.â
The butler tried to stop him, âYouâd better not. You know his personality well, he doesnât allow anyone to enter Silviaâs Haven without his permission.â
Alfredo stared coldly at the butler, stopping the butlerâs attempt to block him, and walked towards the house.
The butler wasnât really afraid of Alfredo, but he hoped someone could persuade Augustine, hoping Augustine could get over his past.
