Just as Renee was wondering if she should just allow Francine to take the kids with her, the old
woman’s voice turned unusually serious. “Ren, I know you still hold resentment towards the family. I
know you hate my son, and you hate me too. I understand that we were horrible towards you, but
Grandpa Timothy has always treated you with nothing but sincerity, hasn’t he? He always treated you
like you were his own granddaughter, right?”
“I will always remember the kindness he showed me,” Renee admitted.
“So please, can you go along with it just this once? For his sake? We just want him to be happy.”
Renee remained silent.
Seeing that the woman wasn’t giving in, Francine sighed. “You might not know this, but the old man’s
health is deteriorating rapidly. The doctor said he wasn’t even sure if he’d make it through winter this
year.”
“What?” Renee felt her heart sink. “But didn’t Grandpa Timothy go through a heart transplant surgery?
It went really well too! So why…”
“Child, have you already forgotten that the surgery was four years ago? He’s become older during the
time you left Beach City. Besides, a heart transplant can only do so much – it doesn’t take away the
health risks that come with old age. He also has other underlying health issues as well, which is why
his condition isn’t as good as you think.”
“Grandpa Timothy never told me about any of this! Every time I went to see him, he was always so
energetic. I really thought he was getting better…” Renee protested, her eyes reddening. Timothy was
like her own grandfather, after all. Thinking about how the kind old man was going to go, just like how
Maurice did, she felt extremely heartbroken.
“The old man talked about you every single day while you were gone, you know? He would lecture
Stefan sometimes, saying that he was a fool for letting go of such an amazing wife. He prayed for you
to come back all the time, wishing that you would make up with Stefan, and give birth to beautiful
children…”
Francine had always been a tough person, but even she had a lump in her throat as she spoke. She let
out a cough and continued, “Stef actually didn’t want me to tell you any of this, as he didn’t want to use
this to guilt-trip you.”
“The old man prohibited me from mentioning it too. All he wanted was for you two to make amends,
and for you, especially, to live a happy life. He didn’t want you to force yourself for any reason. But
every day, I watch as the old man’s condition worsens, and I get scared and worried that he might pass
with regrets. So I…” Francine trailed off, unable to continue.
She knew that it was wrong to suddenly take the little ones away, and that Renee’s anger was
completely justified. However, she didn’t want to delay this any longer, especially with the situation at
hand. Abby and Adie were still young and healthy, so they could surely endure a little traveling, but the
old man didn’t have much time left.
“I understand.” Renee took a deep breath, replying after collecting her thoughts. “If the kids can make
Grandpa Timothy happy, then please take them for a visit. My issues with Stefan Hunt should not affect
them at all.”
“Ren, I always knew you were a generous person. I don’t get how me and Stef never noticed how great
you are, and fell for that sly woman’s tricks instead…”
“There’s no need to talk about the past. I’m not that generous either. When the children return after
Grandpa Timothy’s passing, I will officially wage war against the Hunts,” Renee replied coldly and hung
up right after.
She then returned to Stefan’s room, suppressing her burning rage as she questioned him. “Why didn’t
you tell me about Grandpa Timothy’s condition?!”
The man was calm, but his handsome face was consumed by melancholy. “It’s a family matter, so there
was no need to inform you.”
