Chapter 629 - Elder Braxton finds out truth
"Julian" his voice trailed off as that person from shadows approached him.
Julian bent down on his knee and took his father's hand.
"How are you, father?" he asked with the same emotions brimming on his face.
"Julian…..is it really you" Elder Braxton asked as his voice choked.
"I thought you were dead five years back" a tear slowly made its way down his sagged cheek.
"I am good now…..right. Actually I was in coma for all those years. After that attack, I didn't die…I was saved by council" Julian said.
When Elder Braxton heard the word council, it is only when he remembered Jean. He looked at her for brief moment and then looked at his son.
"Jean…" he is about to ask something but Julian interfered.
"She is my own daughter and your granddaughter" Julian said and warmly smiled at Jean and Scott.
"Then…Sophia?" Elder Braxton couldn't help but ask. Back then, he almost thought that his son is a gay.
"My wife." Julian sadly answered. How much miss her right…..if she would have seen this, she would have been the happiest person alive.
But sadly, she was not part of this reunion.
"I am a council founder dad. Me, Sophia…along with my sister and her husband, we all started it together. If everything would have gone good….this misunderstandings wouldn't have happened" he pursed his lips.
"Hmm…..I will always believe you Julian. You never did anything without thinking pros and cons. I trust you" Elder Braxton patted his son's cheek.
"Who is that person who tried to attack you back then?" Elder Braxton asked after few minutes.
Julian pursed his lips and sighed. He looked at Edward and then at Jean and Scott.
"My brother...your second son. In fact he tried to kill his own wife and child but they are lucky enough that Council saved them" Julian carefully explained.
His father is after all very old and he might not be able to handle this sensitive matters.
"What?!!" Elder Braxton choked up.
"You heard right grandfather. My mother, aunt and sister are alive. But my dad is the one who just framed council for every mistake he did. He killed Sophia and Jonathan. He tried to kill uncle and now, he is after Jean. He is up-to no good" Edward said.
Elder Braxton couldn't do anything but slump deep into the chair. What at all his second son made him to believe are white lies.
He fooled him and played with him akin to puppet.
It made him very angry. "Whatever you decide...I will support you. Do whatever you wish…..kill him if you need to. I don't want to acc.u.mulate any more sin because of that child of mine." Elder Braxton said. His eyes red with anger.
Julian nodded his head and helped his father to drink some water.
...
"So….at last, council is good" Elder Braxton said after listening everything what happened in past few years.
"Yes dad. Though we didn't want to rush to tell you this…we are in big trouble now. My grandson will be in danger if Jaxon finds out how Jean is connected to me" Julian said.
"Grandson?" Elder Braxton asked all shocked.
Then, he remembered that he is actually sitting in hospital while his granddaughter is resting on the bed. He didn't notice till now but there are some baby appliances in the room.
"Jean just gave birth?" he asked and Julian nodded his head.
"A boy. Just three days back" Julian answered.
"Oh….Haha. I became a great grandfather then. Haha" Elder Braxton delightfully laughed.
Even Jean and others laughed seeing him happy like this.
"You became great grandfather five months back itself." Edward pouted.
"How? Jeff is not yet married and Iris is not pregnant too. Jean can't birth too" Elder Braxton scratched his head.
Though he use to say that he hate Enrick and Iris who are also his grandchildren, he secretly use to check on them whether they are safe or not.
Edward pouted even more. "I am also your grandchild"
"But you can't give birth" Elder Braxton said in flow.
Everyone started laughing and it is only when Elder Braxton understood what Edward is implying.
"Don't tell me…" he drawled but Edward smirked.
"I have a wife and cute baby girl twins as a product of our love" he proudly grinned.
"What?!! You didn't tell me at all. Here I am, searching for granddaughter in law like a fool" he smacked his head slightly frustrated.
"How can I tell? If my father will find out he will kill them too" Edward seriously said. He is totally in killing mode now. It is too evident that he hate hid father.
Elder Braxton sighed. "You are right"
"Sigh!! At least I will get to see my great grandchildren grow up. I missed all your stages" he smiled apologetically at Jean, Jeff and Kiara.
These both entered while they were telling about council.
"No grandfather. You can still see your grandchild grow up" Jean said referring to Jasper.
