Chapter 137
After Thea left and before Kenneth could speak, Terence said in a deep voice, “Nat, let’s go.”
Natasha nodded.
“Where are you going?” Liam immediately asked.
Terence glanced at Liam, then looked at Kenneth, who was lying on the bed, and said in
displeasure, “Back to the ward and keep our eyes off all this chaos!” Then Terence extended his
hands to the two children. “Denise, Benjamin, come on!”
Looking at the situation, Denise and Benjamin understood that the best course of action at that
moment was to go with Terence. Hence, they grabbed onto his hands.
“Bye, Great-grandpa. Bye, Mr. Handsome! We’re leaving now,” Denise said, seemingly reluctant to
leave.
“Bye-bye!” Liam’s heart melted.
“I will come visit you!” Kenneth said to Denise and Benjamin.
Denise nodded with a smile in response.
Liam glared at Terence, who looked like a villainous old man.
If you want to leave, leave! Why must you separate them?
Hmph!
As soon as the door closed, Liam’s face fell.
He turned his head to look at Kenneth on the bed, his eyes filled with resentment.
“You brat—”
“I know what you’re about to say!” Kenneth interrupted before Liam could speak his mind. “You just
want to scold me. Grandpa, you already have great-grandchildren. What else do you want from
me?”
Liam sat down angrily and pouted like a dissatisfied child. “So what? I can’t even touch them. It’s
heartbreaking! I want to take them out and have fun with them whenever I want. I want to show
them off to the world, but I can’t!”
When he thought of Terence, Liam was at his wit’s end. There was nothing he could do.
After years of friendship, he was only left with disappointment.
Kenneth smiled faintly and said, “Grandpa, it’s only a matter of time.”
“What do you mean?” Liam looked at him.
“I remember you bought a manor with Old Mr. Watson before, right?” Kenneth reminded.
Liam nodded and said, “Yeah. What about it? We bought it for our retirement.”
Kenneth’s lips quirked up. “Think about it. It’s about time for you both to retire. When the time
comes, both of you will be living together, and the children will always be by your side. You won’t
have to worry about that anymore!”
To Liam, Kenneth’s words seemed to make sense. “But he’s living with Nat. He won’t go to the
manor!”
“They are renting the house they are currently living in!” Kenneth said.
Liam looked at him.
“When the time comes, hand the manor over to Old Mr. Watson, and they will move in. Then you
will get what you want when you move in afterward.”
“Will he agree to that?”
“Don’t worry. Once you’re there, he can’t just chase you out, right?”
Liam thought for a moment and said, “Wouldn’t that be a little too shameless?”
“Well, do you want your great-grandchildren or not?” Kenneth asked.
As soon as Liam thought of the three children, he knew that being shameless was just a small
price to pay.
“Of course I do!”
Kenneth flashed a smirk. “Then that settles it. It’s just a matter of strategy!”
What he said makes sense, but…
Liam narrowed his eyes and looked at Kenneth. “Hey, it’s not that simple, right? Are you using
me?”
“What? No! I just want you to be happy!” Kenneth exclaimed.
Hmph!
As if I’ll believe you!
However, Liam seemed to understand Kenneth’s intentions.
“If you want to get Nat back, why make things so complicated? Isn’t it better to get straight to the
point?”
At the mention of Natalie, Kenneth refuted, “Who said anything about wanting to get her back?”
With Natasha’s temperament, there was no way Kenneth could get her back without a certain
amount of effort.
“Oh, you don’t?”
“No!” Kenneth shifted his gaze elsewhere.
“No? Then why did you get so seriously hurt because of her? Why did you stab yourself twice?” As
Liam spoke, he poked his wound spitefully. Only God knew how worried he was when he found out
about it back then.
Kenneth frowned in pain and mumbled, “I didn’t think much of it at that time.”
“Of course you didn’t! I almost lost a grandson!” Liam cried out.
Kenneth looked at Liam guiltily. “Grandpa, I’m sorry. But don’t worry. It will never happen again. I
won’t make you suffer through that again.”
Liam looked at him, and a bitter smile appeared on his face. “You look just like your father back
then.”
Kenneth remained silent when he heard that.
Putting aside the unhappy thoughts, Liam looked Kenneth in the eye and said, “Kenneth, in life,
there will be something or someone far more important than your life. I won’t stop you from doing
what you want, but you really have to think it through this time. Natasha is not afraid to love or hate
you. She won’t forgive you easily since you’ve disappointed her once. If you do anything
outrageous again, she may actually sever ties with you.”
“I understand.” Kenneth nodded.
“Well, as long as you know what you’re doing.”
Kenneth pursed his lips, but his eyes were lit up. The answer to who or what was far more
important than his life could not be any more obvious.
“You have a good rest. I’ll be taking my leave.” Liam stood up.
“You’re going home so early?”
“Home? I’m going to the ward next door to see my great-grandchildren!”
Kenneth was rendered speechless.
“You were right. I have to be a little more shameless,” Liam said before walking toward the door.
However, when he reached the door, he suddenly remembered something and turned back to
Kenneth. “By the way, about Th—”
“I’ll deal with her,” Kenneth answered before Liam could finish.
Liam was relieved to see that Kenneth had a plan. “Rest well. Oh, and remember to do what you
promised me. I can’t wait!”
With that, he opened the door and left before Kenneth could respond. Belongs to (N)ôvel/Drama.Org.
As soon as the door closed, Kenneth’s lips curled up.
Right then, Kenneth’s phone rang. He picked up the phone and immediately answered the call
when he saw that it was from Fabian.
“Speak.”
While listening to Fabian on the phone, Kenneth frowned.
“Okay. Pick me up at the hospital. I’ll go there myself!” He then hung up.
