A Crazy One-night Stand -
Chapter 28: Some Things Can’t Be Forgotten
Wilson replied him seriously, "I'll bring my girlfriend home in a few days!"
"You have a girlfriend already?" Lincoln's yellowed eyes sparkled.
"Yes." Wilson nodded. Alina's face flashed across in his mind. They were about to get married, it shouldn't be too much for her to pretend to be his girlfriend.
"That's great!" Lincoln was obviously thrilled to hear the good news from Wilson as compared to meeting his two other grandsons' girlfriends. This caused some dissatisfaction in Lucas and Colton. Wilson's parents were also shocked when they heard that Wilson had a girlfriend. Then, Wilson's mother, Sophie said happily, "Why don't you invite her home earlier, we are all excited to meet her!" "Okay!" Wilson nodded.
The elderly man was really happy. He gently patted Wilson's hand and said earnestly, "Wilson, move back to stay with me. I am old now, I have no idea when I will leave this world. I want to spend as much time as I can with you!"
Upon hearing this, Wilson felt a twinge of sorrow. He nodded again. "Alright, Grandfather."
Hearing that her son was willing to move back home, Sophie was choked with emotion and leaned into her husband's arms.
In a large family, it was hard to please everyone. If some people were happy, others would be displeased. At Wilson's decision to move back home, his parents and grandfather were overjoyed, even the butler and servants were happy about it. However, Wilson's uncle and his family were resentful. They were jealous of Lincoln's favouritism of Wilson.
The butler had already left to clean up Wilson's room.
"Will you be able to stay here tonight?" Lincoln looked at Wilson, his eyes filled with anticipation.
"Sure!" Wilson could not bear to refuse. Looking at his grandfather, who was growing older by the day, he continued, "I will invite Lina for dinner tonight if she can make it." Wilson had a sudden idea to give Alina a nickname, 'Lina'. It would seem strange to call Alina by her full name since they were going to be married.
"Excellent! Sophie, prepare more dishes for dinner tonight." Lincoln was so happy that his pale face turned ruddy.
"Alright!" Sophie immediately agreed. She left joyfully and instructed the butler, "Wilson is bringing his girlfriend home tonight. Prepare more dishes for dinner!" It had been ages since Wilson came home for dinner. As his mother, she couldn't help but feel upset about it.
"I'm alright now. Everyone can leave and go back to their work. Wilson, stay and chat with me for a while." Lincoln was in high spirits after hearing some good news from Wilson. George, Wilson's uncle, got up reluctantly to leave with his family.
George's wife, Rainee Shaw looked at Lincoln with a smile and said, "Dad, take care and have a good rest. Remember to inform us if there is anything that requires our help. Although there are servants and doctors taking care of you, we really want to fulfil our filial duties as much as possible."
Her two sons, Lucas and Colton, also smiled and said in unison, "Grandfather, please have a good rest and take care of yourself. We will try our best to grow our family and bear great-grandchildren for our Family as soon as possible." They knew what was music to Lincoln's ears.
Sure enough, as soon as Lincoln heard about this, he was very pleased.
After everyone left, the doctor set up the medical equipment and said, "Lincoln's blood pressure is not stable yet. He needs medical attention around the clock to prevent any sudden emergencies from happening."
"Okay!" Wilson nodded.
The two doctors packed up their instruments and left the room. They were in-house doctors hired with high salaries by Wilson's Family. They lived in an attached building and had servants taking care of their daily needs. The Scott Family would only call them when needed.
After the doctors left, Lincoln sent out the remaining servants in the room. Only he and Wilson were left.
He held Wilson's hand and sighed, "Wilson, you've suffered so much all these years!"
Wilson shook his head. "No, I was fine!"
Lincoln patted the back of Wilson's hand. "Child, you should try and let go of your burdens. Things in the past should be kept in the past. As long as we are human, we would make mistakes. These few years, they have settled down and didn't cause any trouble."
Wilson's eyes darkened as if he was staring into the abyss of the ocean. He gritted his teeth and said, "Grandfather, there are some things that can't be forgotten!"☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐
