Cheyenne was so bored that she absentmindedly tapped her delicate, pale hand on the table and began to doodle.
As a younger family member, she didn't know much about what had happened in the past and didn't want to speak out of turn.
But she believed that her grandfather wouldn't hate someone for no reason, so there must be something suspicious about this Granduncle's visit.
"Layne, I've come to realize over these years that I was wrong to betray the Edwards family and you," he said with tears welling up in his eyes.
"Hmph! You owe an even bigger apology to your wife!"
Adrian replied with a desolate expression as his brow furrowed. "Yes, I owe Kaylee an apology."
"Bang!" The sound was deafening as the tea lid on the table jumped up and water splashed everywhere.
It turned out that Layne had become angry and hit the tea table in front of him. "Do you know what happened because of your actions back then? Your wife and baby lost their lives!"
When Adrian heard the last sentence, he froze for a moment before looking at Layne incredulously. "Layne... what are you saying?"
What do you mean?
Was Kaylee pregnant?
Layne nodded in shock and sighed with regret, "Yes, she was already pregnant back then."
"The three-month-old child has formed, it has life and also has limbs and consciousness..."
Adrian tightly clasped his hands together under the long sleeves of his suit.
He actually had a child. He was thirty years old when he married Kaylee Skinner, while his wife was twenty-seven years old. Eight years after marriage, they still did not have any children.
Therefore, Adrian never expected to have one.
Kaylee was an older pregnant woman at the time, and she herself was very uncertain, afraid that it would all be for nothing in the end.
She kept it a secret and planned to share the joy with her husband after the fetus was stable.
As a result, she never had this opportunity again.
She and her child died at the hands of her husband!
Adrian finally felt a hint of pain. He didn't easily admit his mistakes, but in this matter, he was wrong.
Looking at Adrian crying sadly in front of him, Layne softened a bit.
He patted Adrian's shoulder and said, "It's okay. Everything has passed. It's no use crying over spilt milk now."
"It's all my fault! If only I hadn't made such a mistake back then..."
