He had already forgotten that this catastrophe originally started with Sean deceiving Aino. He had already forgotten, and he also thought that the child also had forgotten. At that moment, Sean was embarrassed.
He held onto Aino. "Aino, baby, I am your grandpa.
Your real grandpa. I know I have made mistakes. Now, I am here to see you and your younger brother. Both you and your brother are the only grandchildren of the Ford family. I don't have anything else in the future. I only have you and your brother."
Sean was covered in tears and his words were filled with guilt. He was very sincere. He had used up all of his sincerity. However, Aino still did not buy it at all.
Aino retreated. "No. Don't try to deceive me like this again. Can you just directly tell me what you want to d o? My mom's body is very weak now. My brother is only three days old. My dad is also not so happy these few days. Every time I saw my Dad, he would be crying while holding a photo of my Uncle Holden. You old man, if you have anything, just tell me. It doesn't matter even if you want to harm and kill me. However, don't harm my mom and my mother, and also my dad. They are all very pitiful. I am the person in charge now in this house."
The six-year-old child had not even started first grade, but she already knew to protect her mother, her father, and also her newborn brother. At that moment, she was that family's mainstay.
When Sean heard all those words, he simply felt like they were slicing his heart up.
Tears gushed down Sean's cheeks. "I am your grandpa"
"All the grandpa in the world loved their grandchildren very much. However, you don't. You also told me last time that you were my grandpa and you are my father's father, and I believed you. I wanted a grandpa like those other children's grandpa, who would bring them to buy many snacks to eat. I wanted such a grandpa. I believed you, but you deceived me. You are not my grandpa. You are a liar. You are my family's enemy!"
Sean was speechless. He had been longing to take a look at his three-day-old grandson. However, never would he have expected that he was already one step away from doing so, but he was blocked outside the door by his granddaughter.
"Whatever you want to do to my family, just come at m e! You can beat me to death, but you can't harm my parents and my brother." Aino straightened her back and looked at her own grandfather extremely fearlessly.
At that moment, Sean felt guilty, so much so that he could not say anything. Sebastian was standing behind him and had been there for a very long time. H e also did not know what to say. He opened his mouth a few times, but he did not say anything. What should he say? Should he tell Aino that Sean truly was her grandpa, so let him in? What should Aino think? The child was only six years old, and that could possibly b e lifelong trauma for her.
Sebastian also could not tell his father to just leave as Aino did not welcome him. This definitely would be a heavy blow to this father. The Ford family simply could not have a third funeral at that moment.
After he thought about it for a long time, Sebastian still called out. "Aino, many people in this world would make mistakes. Just like your grandpa who had deceived you earlier on. That was his mistake and I will never ever forgive him. Aino also should not forgive him. However, in terms of blood relations, he truly is your grandpa, which means he is my biological father, just like you and I."
