Chapter 365 No Second Chances

Dragged by South until they were about to pass Gael, Gianna finally stopped. “South, wait South pouted unhappily Looking at Gael, Gianna realized that he had become much older than before. In fact, he looked like he had aged a lot compared to the first time they met after seven years

He had gray hair, and he didn’t look as energetic as before.

Looking at tuim, tears welled up in Gianna’s eyes, “What’s up?”

Alump formed in Gael’s throat. “Silas has let Aubrey Company off the hook I knew you had definitely put in a lot of good words for me, so I just wanted to come over to thank you.” Gianna merely replied, “That’s good.” Giving her a nod, he said, “I’ll leave now.” Gianna frowned and called out, “Wait…”

Gael stopped his footsteps and turned around to look at her blankly with a pair of eyes that had moisture in them. “Gianna, I’m an old fool now. I’d done many things to hurt you in the past, but I’m not asking for your forgiveness; I just hope you are not too angry with me. My little grandson said that you would be sad for a few days every time I visit. It’s not worth it to be sad because of a selfish person like me. I’m off now, and I won’t disturb you anymore!” With that, he turned around to leave. Still frowning, Gianna asked, “Why do you take a child’s words so seriously?” Gael merely shook his head. “It’s something even a kid knows, but I only figured it out today. South is very smart, and he loves you a lot.

His words completely brought me back to my senses. Indeed, I’d been giving you a hard time. I’ll leave you to live out your lives peacefully. If you need my help, just give me a call.” With that, he walked out of the room. This time around, Gianna didn’t stop him, as she didn’t know what to say to him. Can I really let go of everything that happened in the past?

I’m not that gracious-at least I can’t do that now. In fact, seeing Gael in this way, Gianna also felt rather sad. It might have been better if he had scolded me instead.

As she was still looking at him, she had an impulse to run to him and pull him back, calling him ‘dad’

and telling him, ‘Don’t feel sad. I don’t mind about everything that happened in the past!

However, she merely stood at the entrance of the studio while watching his figure getting further away.

Then, she felt a small, soft hand holding hers, and she looked over.

South looked at her with a worried expression on his face. “Don’t be sad, Mommy.”

Gianna remained silent and watched Gael’s disappearing figure until he was gone before she retracted her gaze.

“What did you tell him?”

Looking at Gianna’s gaze, South looked slightly awkward. “I just can’t stand him bullying you every time, so I told him that I don’t want him to meet you, because you will feel sad after that!”

Gianna did not blame him. Instead, she ruffled his hair. “Don’t worry about me next time. I’m an adult-I can settle my own matters.”

South put his hands in his pockets with a cool expression on his face. In an indignant tone, he asked, “You don’t believe that I can help you?”

Gianna laughed out loud. “I believe you! You’re the best, son! But he is my father after all, we can’t treat him like he’s our enemy.” South pouted. “I have already let him go for your sake many times. But I also warned him that if he bullies you anymore, I won’t go easy on him next time.”

Hearing this, Gianna was speechless and exasperated at the same time. “Let it be and stop picking on him, alright?” South merely snorted arrogantly. “I don’t give second chances here!” Gianna clicked her tongue and wanted to add on to her point, but South had run away. “Let’s order some food delivery for lunch!” In the evening, since Silas had promised Gianna to make dumplings for dinner, he went to her house directly after work. “You’re so early today.” He replied, “I have nothing much to do, and we are making dumplings, aren’t we? In that case, we’ll have to go to the supermarket first.”
