Chapter184
Terrence was a bit annoyed, “Kyson, are you crazy? You want
to challenge me? Show what you’ve got on your own, don’t drag
your grandpa into this. What kind of hero are you?”
“What are you talking about? What do you mean by asking me
to team up with my grandpa to fight you?”
Bethany’s paper cutting touched his grandpa’s heart, and he
could tell. Bethany was a mute, probably not well–treated in the
McConnell family. He just wanted to help Bethany out.
Just see what Terrence was thinking, how he ended up
deliberately going against him.
“You know it yourself!”
He said this and then Terrence turned and left.
“Terrence, you…
Kyson couldn’t explain even if he wanted to.
Jameson wanted to adopt Bethany as his goddaughter, but this
would definitely require Bethany’s consent. Jameson was
waiting for Kyson’s message, but to his surprise, Kyson returned
Chapter184
and said that Bethany had already left for something urgent.
This can only be left alone.
Jameson told Kyson, “See if you can invite her to our house
again tomorrow, I have prepared a gift for her.”
“I’ll ask her later.”
The Duarte family’s birthday party was still going on, Terrence
and Bethany had both left.
Terrence wasn’t around, so Krista thought it was boring and left
when the time was up.
She left, and of course Rigoberto followed.
Evangeline had originally intended to confront Kyson with
Jameson, but after some time had passed and the initial anger
had subsided, she lost interest in making a complaint. As the
party was coming to an end and some guests were starting to
leave, she said goodbye to Jameson.
A few familiar faces, only Lucian was left in the end, now he’s
standing with Kyson drinking.
“Your old man seems to really like Terrence’s wife.”
Lucian was a bit curious.
Chapter184
They were friends who grew up playing together since they
were young, so they knew each other’s personalities quite well.
Kyson helped Bethany, which was okay, just wanted to hang
out with Terrence.
Jameson was a bit puzzled over there.
Kyson laughed, “Bethany was his first love’s granddaughter.”
“Oh, I see.”
Lucian had a sudden realization.
Jameson’s first love, don’t mention it to the Duarte family.
They all knew each other.
I heard his first love was a paper–cutting intangible cultural
heritage inheritor, so after retirement, he has been collecting all
kinds of paper–cutting.
Lucian and Kyson clinked glasses and said with a smile, “I didn’t
expect the world to be so small.”
Kyson sighed, “Small or big, like my little sister, after all these
years, still no news.”
Lucian patted Kyson on the shoulder, “Didn’t Terrence promise
Chapter184
to help? With so much big data now, there might be news soon.”
“I hope so.”
Terrence returned to Vespera Villa, but Bethany still hadn’t
come back.
Feeling stuffy and dry in the chest, I decided to walk out of the
villa.
Thanksgiving Day was coming soon. At this time of night, the temperature was just right. Terrence sat in the gazebo outside
and lit a cigarette.
In no time, Krista came over.
Under the dim light, the smoke Terrence exhaled curled around
him, making his handsome face appear mysteriously clear and
blurry at the same time.
He was so mysterious, nobody could figure out what he was
thinking.
Terrence’s voice was gentle, “It’s so late, why aren’t you resting?
What brings you here?”
Krista looked deeply into Terrence’s eyes and said softly,
“Terrence… we… I know we can’t be together, but when you got
married, you promised that even if you married Bethany, you
