“Lea is back!” Christian stood up from the couch, took off his glasses, and rubbed his eyes.

“Lea!” greeted Ewan as he stood up as well.

After learning about what had happened to Lea, Ewan rushed over to Iverton to visit her. He had been keeping Christian company for the past few days.

Lea approached them and greeted them calmly, “Hi Grandpa. Hi Dad.”

“Why are you standing? Have a seat.” Lea talked to them as if nothing had happened. She behaved just as she used to when they were in Vaporleon City.

She was still the obedient and intelligent granddaughter of the Berry family.

However, Christian looked at her apologetically. He wanted to say something but hesitated, not knowing where to start.

Before the incident, Lea had called Christian. When they met, she asked him to trust her.

And

yet, not only did Christian doubt her, he even sold her to Milton, her least favorite person.

At the thought of this, Christian felt so guilty that he was too ashamed to face her.

Seeing that Christian remained standing, Ewan did not dare to sit down. He also wore a guilty and apologetic expression.

At the moment, Ewan still did not know that Lea was not his biological daughter. As a father, he had watched Lea being abused by Matilda in the past. Now, he could not help her in anything and had to rely on her to support the family.

Lea looked at the two of them. Since the heater was running, Christian only wore a gray suit. His hair was nearly all gray, and he had lost a lot of weight. He had aged a lot. Nevertheless, he looked energetic as a retired soldier.

Lea knew that Christian had been worried about her.

On the other hand, Ewan was wearing a blue high–collared T–shirt. After getting rid of Matilda and Helen, Ewan lost interest in having affairs as well. He took good care of his appearance and focused on his work. He looked younger now. He was in his forties, yet he looked like he was in his late thirties.

Ewan was dressed in branded clothes and wore a luxurious watch. Coupled with his identity as the only heir and CEO of the Berry Group, he exuded the charm of a successful middle–aged man.

Ewan said, “Lea, have a drink.” Unlike Christian, Ewan was carefree. He felt happy after hearing Lea

The Riverview Hospital was almost on par with the Berry Group. Moreover, its prospects were immeasurable. Ewan felt like he was a winner in life to have a daughter like Lea to take care of him when he retired.

Ewan thought, Who said that we can only achieve success in life through talent and hardwork? I am winning in life even without doing anything

“Thank you, Dad.” Lea took the glass from Ewan and took a sip of the drink. She then looked at Christian and said, “Grandpa, it’s my fault for not telling you my plan in advance.”

That was why Christian didn’t believe her.

Trust was a two way street. Even though Christian was at fault for doubting Lea, Lea had to be partially responsible for it as well. Lea did nothing wrong, but her not telling Christian the truth and her plan was part of the reason why things turned out the way they were.

Lea treated Christian and Ewan as her family members the moment she allowed Christian to acknowledge her as his granddaughter.

In fact, Lea only had Christian and Ewan as her family members. She cherished them and was willing to take on more responsibilities and be more tolerant for their sake.

Lea thought, ‘I can’t help but pamper my family members. There’s nothing wrong with it, right?‘

“Lea!” Christian’s eyes turned red as he called her name. He could tell that she was sincerely apologizing and did not take his past actions to heart. “I’m really sorry.”

Christian felt bad that Lea was the one apologizing instead.

Lea’s forbearance and attention to the big picture made Christian feel inferior and ashamed of himself.

“Dad.” Ewan patted Christian’s shoulder and comforted him, saying, “Since Lea has said so, you don’t have to worry anymore. Look. Lea is doing so well with the hospital now. She is clearly capable. She’s doing even better than you. You should just support her decisions from now on.”

Ewan added, “Also, you don’t have to be so stressed. Just leave all the work to Lea.” Ewan was confident that everything would turn out well under Lea’s leadership.

Christian was furious. “You-”

Ewan interrupted Christian and said, “Dad, don’t worry. I won’t fight with Lea. I don’t care if you pass the

However, Christian could not retire in peace because Ewan was useless and could not run the company on his own.

Christian was taken aback by Ewan’s shamelessness of having the intention to pass the company to Lea. Lea was still in school. She was already deprived of sleep because she had to run the hospital. Christian would not trouble her with the affairs of the Berry Group.

Alfred set the table and interrupted the conversation between Christian and Ewan by saying, “Lunch is ready. Let’s eat.” Alfred had to intervene before the two of them got into a fight.

Alfred would be the peacemaker because Lea liked a harmonious family.

Lea glanced at Alfred. She then said to Christian and Ewan, “Grandpa and Dad, let’s eat first. I’m starving.”

Only then did Christian refrain from nagging Ewan. All four of them sat by the table.

After Alfred sent Lea to the hospital in the morning, he came to keep Christian company and made lunch.

“Wow! Alfred, your cooking is so delicious!” Ewan praised. “Have you learned how to cook before?”

Alfred turned to look at Lea beside him. His eyes were filled with tenderness as he replied, “Yes.”

Alfred had indeed attended a few cooking classes over the past six months so that Lea got to eat good home cooked meals.

Since Alfred was outstanding, he learned everything quickly and performed well in the kitchen,

Lea turned her head and locked eyes with Alfred. Her eyes were filled with smiles.

Ewan said sincerely, “Lea, a man who can cook and is willing to cook for you must be a good man. You have to cherish him.”

After suffering in marriage for more than 20 years, Ewan was very supportive of Lea replaceing the best lover who would treat her well.

Alfred was the heir of the Andrews family. It was rare for a man of his status to treat their lover with such care and tenderness.

Lea did not respond immediately. She turned to look at Ewan. She then understood his good intentions.

She knew better than Ewan did.
