Chapter 877 Blake got up, âCome to the study with me.â
Did he mean he didnât want to discuss it in front of Cleaner and Cedric?
Cedric and Eleanor exchanged glances, then looked at Bemard.
Bemard didnât move, âIs there something they canât hear?â
Blake turned around and said coldly, âYou can ecide if you want to tell them after you hear it.â
Bernardâs handsome brow furrowed slightly. After a few seconds of hesitation, he looked at Aidyn. âIs Liana here yet?â
Aidyn respectfully responded. The hospital is quite a distance away, but sheâs on her way and should arrive soon.â
Bernard shifted his focus, tenderly holding Eleanorâs hand. âAre you in significant pain, my love?â
Eleanorâs heart warmed at his caring gaze. âIâm feeling better now. Donât worry about the. There are thing more important than thisâ
Bemard affectionately stroked her hair, then addressed Aldyn with a cold tone. âOnce Liana arrives, ensure she promptly tends to my wife.â
Aidyn nodded in understanding, and Bernard rose from his seat, heading towards the study.
Mr Laurence sat on the sofa, silently observing his surroundings. When Bernard entered with an expressionless face, he took a seat opposite Blake.
âLetâs begin,â Bernard demanded.
Mr. Laurence wasnât pleased with Bernardâs attitude, but he was powerless to intervene. He no longer held control over his grandson Blake felt a tinge of disappointment, sighing heavily. âThis is a complicated matter, and it all traces back to your father.â
As he mentioned Bernardâs father, Blakeâs gaze turned from cold to gloomy, as if weighed down by a heavy burden, making him look even more aged.
Bernardâs impression of his father was of a drunkard, always tipsy. Even if Donna hit or scolded him, the drunkard would ignore her. There was no familial love between them, âWhat does he have to do with this?â

Mr. Laurence said seriously. âOf course it has to do with your father. When he was young, he met a woman in the G country, claimed to have fallen in love with her and wanted to marry her. I allowed him to bring her back to meet me. She was very klicent, respectful and wellâmannered. When I asked about her family background, she said she was from the Hooper family, and I agreed.â
Bernard frowned, âIf you approved of the daughter of the Hooper family, why did he erjd up marrying Donna?â
Mr. Laurence said, âSheâs not the daughter of the Hooper family. Sheâs the illegitimate daughter of Jensen Pine. How could I agree to them being together?â
Bernard glanced at him, âSo, you made them break up?â
Mr. Laurence nodded, then shook his head, âI initially forced them to break up, but your father was very determined to marry her. He made a big fuss, but how could your grandmother possibly agree to the daughter of the Pine family marrying into our family? I had no choice but to threaten your father with the girlâs life, forcing him to marry Donnaâ
Blakeâs guilt towards Donna started here. The Stanley family married Donna to his son for a business alliance, and he did it to make his son forget the illegitimate daughter of the Pine family.
âOn their wedding day, I had your father take some concoction. Not long after, Donrii became pregnant with your older brother. But your father never forgot about the girl from the Pine family. Donna mightâve found out, and it weighed on her. She always had conflicts with your father during her pregnancy.
âYour father found Donna to be controlling and somewhat neurotic, leading him to consider a divorce. However, Donnaâs love for him was profound, having admired him since their youth. It was already difficult for her to become his wife, so she resisted the idea of a divorce, As a result, your father felt trapped, often staying abroad for extended periods, sometimes up to six months...
âPerhaps I was too lenient at that time. I didnât harm the other woman; I simply ensured her departure. Now, fate has brought them together again in a foreign location. After experiencing the volatility of his relationship with Donna and reuniting with a lost love, your fatherâs mental state has become chaotic, leading to a complete mess.â
