Love Contract
Chapter 177 The Grandparents (Part Two)

"Bye, Grandpa!"

"Grandpa, come back soon!"

"Definitely!" Timothy stood up, smiled, and followed the doctor out. After two steps, however, he stopped, firmly grasped the doctor's shoulder, and said, "Find the best doctor in your hospital for my dear grandson. I don't care who, but give him your greatest experts. If I see a scar on my grandson's head, I will flatten your hospital!"

"Yes. I will make sure of that."

Upon hearing that, Timothy smiled, nodded, and walked out.

"Just wait here for us, Mary. We'll be back soon,

said Amy.

"Sure." Mary nodded.

After the old couple walked out, the smile on Mary's face slowly disappeared, replaced by a look of worry.

Now even William's father knew of the two children's existence. Why couldn't misfortune leave her alone. What should she do now? As soon as Timothy finished his physical examination, he immediately made his way back to his grandchildren. He stayed with them the whole afternoon and didn't leave until it was already dark outside.

"Elissa," Timothy said gently before leaving. "How about going home with Grandpa tonight?"

"Do you have any toys?" Elissa inquired.

Timothy appeared to be stunned by Elissa's question. "Well... No, I don't have any toys. What kind of toys do you want?"

"I want everything!"

Mary was so shocked by her child's answer that she quickly scurried over to Elissa to cover her mouth. 'I've failed as a mother!' she thought, horrified.

"If that's what you want, Elissa! Grandpa will buy everything you want!" Timothy's eyes were wide with anticipation. "So, will you come home with Grandpa tonight?"

"No, I won't!" Elissa pouted stubbornly. "I want to sleep with Mommy."

"Timothy, let it go," Amy teased Timothy. "Of course the little girl wants to be by her mother's side."

"I know, I know. She is so adorable!" Timothy appeared to not be annoyed by Elissa at all. Instead, his smile was wide when he said, "Then, come to Grandpa's house another day." Hearing that, Mary felt her heart sink. She wanted to decline the invitation herself, but she resisted and made sure that what she was feeling wouldn't show on her face. "Come on, it's getting late," Amy reminded him with a smile. "Mary. We'll come back tomorrow. Tell Aunt Amy what you want to eat and I'll bring it to you tomorrow morning."

"Please don't bother, Aunt Amy. I can do it myself. You just came back from the United States. It's better if you just take a good rest for now."

"What are you saying?" Amy's eyebrows were scrunched up. "It's fine. You know what, I'll just bring whatever I can. Have a good rest, Mary."

"I will. Thank you so much. See you tomorrow."

"Goodbye, Grandpa and Grandma!"

"Bye, Grandpa and Grandma!"

Timothy sat in the car with his eyes slightly closed, humming an unknown song as he patted his thigh with his broad palm. A smile brightened up his features.

He came back just because he wanted to pay respects to his ancestors. Never in his wildest dreams did he think that he would meet his grandchildren by accident. It was truly a pleasure seeing the two children! 'Finally, that brat, William, gave me something worthwhile!' he thought.

With that, his eyes flew open. Immediately, he barked an order to his driver. "Go to AJ Group."

"Yes, sir."

"AJ Group?" asked Amy. "Why? You want to meet up with William?"

"Yep."

Amy smiled and wondered how William was doing.

Screech!

Their car stopped at the entrance of the AJ Group after a short while. The security guard was about to step forward to inform the driver of proper drop off protocols, but when he saw and recognized the person alighting from the car, he quickly bowed ninety degrees.

Timothy's face was cold and emotionless a stark contrast to how he presented himself to his grandchildren. With his head held high, he went to the 32nd floor with Amy.

"Ding!" The elevator stopped.

Timothy's unannounced visit scared the employees on the 32nd floor. Judging from his expression, it seemed like William was in trouble again. "Where is William? Come out, you brat!" Timothy shouted and sa on the sofa in the hall.

Recognizing the voice calling for him, William walked out of his office in a hurry. When he saw his dad, his mouth fell open. "Father?"

"I'm surprised you still know who your father is." Timothy looked at him and sneered.

To that, William only lowered his head and said nothing.

"William, is everything okay?" Amy asked.

"Aunt Amy, I'm fine. Thank you."

"Everything's good."

"Well, Amy, I think he is extremely fine!" Timothy bellowed as he glared at William. "Tell me, do you know you have two children? Mary gave birth to a boy and a girl-twins. They're yours."

As soon as Timothy said this, everyone on the floor let out a collective gasp.

Andy couldn't believe his ears. 'Mary? How could she have children with William? Unbelievable!'

William's head shot up. "When did you know that?" he asked, his wide eyes revealing how shocked he was.

"Wow. It seems like you have known about it all along." A frown slowly appeared on Timothy's lips. "Why are you like this? A disappointment! Huh! You already have children with Mary, but you can't keep her? What is wrong with you?!"

William lowered his head once again in embarrassment.

"Do you still hang out with that brat Frank? Tell me!"

"Father, please," William pleaded. He then turned to Virgil and the others and said, "You guys go out first."

"Yes, boss."

"Humph," Timothy sneered mockingly after they went downstairs. "Why did you send them away? Too embarrassed of what you did that you don't want others to know about it?"

"Father," said William, his Adam's apple rolling up and down. "Frank and I are just friends now."

"Are you telling the truth?" With a surprised look on her face, Amy asked, "Does that mean you..."

"I love Mary." William's tone was firm and his expression was serious.

"Finally! You finally used your brain for once!" Timothy said with the fakest tone of enthusiasm in his voice.

"William, if you had said that earlier," said Amy with tears on her face. "If you had said that earlier, you wouldn't have ended up like this! You two have divorced. What about your children?" "I... I will get Mary back. I will do everything." William had already made his mind up. "I will be responsible for the two children as well. I will try my best to be a good father to them."

"Gosh! William!" exalted Amy. Her voice was full of delight and disbelief. "Do you mean it? Do you really intend on getting back with Mary?"

"Yes." William nodded. "In fact, I have made up my mind four years ago. I just missed my chance by accident."

"I feel so aggrieved to have a son like you!" Timothy bellowed once again. He was now angry. "Why are you so stupid? You are... something! I don't want to deal with you right now. I will go home tonight and have a good rest. I need to visit my two good angels tomorrow!"

"Father, you... Have you met them already?"

"Yes, I've met them! Elissa is sweet and she calls me 'Grandpa'. Alick, on the other hand, is just like you." Timothy then turned around and began to head out. "We're leaving now."

"Wait a minute, Father." William looked worried. "Please don't visit them too frequently."

"And why not? They're my grandchildren!"

"Mary... didn't accept me," said William with an embarrassed look on his face. "Although she hasn't really said it, I'm certain that she doesn't want you to go to the hospital every day. You can go to see your grandchildren all you want after we're back together."

"And when will that happen? When I'm dead?"

"But if she doesn't forgive me, I have no choice.

"William, what on earth did you do to Mary?" Amy asked, "She told us that she left you in a hurry, so she must have some unspeakable reasons, right? Otherwise, how could she not forgive you?"

"I..." Hearing that, William pursed his lips. He explained, "I was so angry that I locked her in the room. Her mother passed away during that time. Because I wouldn't let her out, she didn't have a chance to see her mother one last time... What's more, I also slapped her so hard that she went deaf in one ear."

"What? You devil! You don't deserve her or the kids!" Timothy became furious the moment he heard William's story. "You are a monster, an unforgivable bastard! You even... I can't believe it..."

"Don't be angry, Timothy, please! Mind your heart!" Amy immediately comforted Timothy. "Mary truly has suffered a lot..."

William's heart ached. He had long realized what a jerk he used to be!

"I'm warning you," said Timothy pointing at William, "if you dare to hurt Mary again, I will personally break your legs!"

William didn't say anything. He just watched his angry father and disappointed aunt walk out of the building.

At the seaside,

Frank drove along the main road of the villa district. When he passed by William's villa, he saw only darkness.

After Mary had left, William had been living in the Kylin International's apartment. He never came back to the villa, even not once.

Frank was used to the emptiness of the villa, but he couldn't help but stop the car and look at it from a distance.

Ring... Ring...

Frank's phone rang all of a sudden.

He narrowed his eyes and pressed the answer key. "What's up?" he asked coldly.

"Big news." A woman's voice came from the other end of the line. "Absolutely bonkers news."

"What is it?" Frank raised his eyebrow.

"William Lan has children. Twins."

"Who is the mother? Do you know?" Frank was shocked. "Mary Lu, of course." The woman smiled and sneered, "I didn't expect her to be such a scheming bitch. She was able to bear William's children and hide them for four years."

Frank's eyes widened. Through his gritted teeth, he said, "I see."

"OK. Let me know if you come up with a plan. We're on the same team."

"Don't worry, I will." Frank then hung up the phone.

Starting the car again, Frank drove to his villa, his face unreadable.

"Coming back so late?"

Unexpectedly, Corbett, whom Frank hadn't seen for a long time, greeted him as soon as he got off the car. He was smiling and leaning against the door of the villa. It seemed that he had been waiting for Frank to arrive.
