Chapter 689 - The Past (1)

"Hey! Little girl! It has been a long time." Mr. Rolando was very happy. He stared at Emily for a moment and confirmed that her memory should have been restored. Then, he took the time to size up Vincent. "Why are you thinner? Have you not eaten well recently?"

Vincent's hair had already returned to black. He looked very healthy. It was just that he had been extremely thin during the time he was on the Emerald Island, and he was still so thin even now.

"Just because he takes care of me." Emily handed a gift to Mr. Rolando. "Grandpa, happy birthday."

"It is his duty to take care of you." As Mr. Rolando spoke, he happily tore apart the gift. He put on a hearty smile and asked curiously and pleasantly, "What is this?"

It was a DV.

There were all the photos and videos taken secretly by Vincent's guards, including photos of the little puppy. There were also some cheerful videos of Emily and Vincent bathing the little puppy.

Mr. Rolando's phone rang before he could turn on the DV. He looked at the call and found that it was his old friend. He immediately picked up the phone with exultation. "Hello..."

"Where are you? Where did you go?" Carl asked on the phone.

"Garden, you guys come here. Don't bring anyone else with you. You guys come together. Don't let anyone see them." Mr. Rolando happily replied answered the phone.

Carl was very excited when he heard Mr. Rolando's voice. He hung up the phone and said to the others beside him with a puzzle. "He sounds very happy. He said he is in the garden and told us not to bring anyone else along..."

"Let's go. I guess he is pretending to be happy. If such an outstanding grandson is gone, who can be happy? He went to the garden. Whoever is celebrating his birthday will go to the garden alone. He should be thinking about his grandson."

"That's right, let's bring the gifts. Everyone, don't talk about anything sad later and talk about something happy."

"By the way, you didn't bring your grandson, right?"

"No, I didn't. Who would dare to bring my grandson? I'm just afraid of provoking him."

"Alright, let's go."

A group of elder gentlemen stepped into the garden with heavy expressions. Just as they were about to smile, they saw a man and a woman under the dim light. They were standing in front of Mr. Rolando. The elder gentlemen could only vaguely see that this man was tall and sturdy in a black suit. Just by looking at his posture, they could tell that this man was mature and responsible. Then, they looked at the little girl next to them. She was wearing a black dress, which complemented Vincent's pure black suit. They couldn't see her face but her long hair behind her back. However, when they heard her laughter, they vaguely felt like...

The elder gentlemen were about to take a closer look when they saw Mr. Rolando wave at them, "Come here, see my grandson and my granddaughter-in-law."

"What?"

The elder gentlemen stood there blankly and almost thought that they heard something wrong.

The man and woman standing in front of Mr. Rolando slowly turned around. The man looked very handsome with a stiff collared shirt. That was Vincent who died in a car accident!

"You, you, you..." The elder gentlemen stammered as they looked at Vincent. Then, they looked at Mr. Rolando. Finally, they confirmed one thing from Mr. Rolando's happy face. Vincent was still alive.

"Hey! You damn old man! We all discussed that we couldn't bring our grandsons here, because we are afraid of provoking you! But you! Ah! Your grandson is standing here!"

After Carl finished speaking, he seemed to have recalled something as he turned to look at Emily who was standing next to Vincent. He asked hesitantly, "What did you just say about her?"

"My granddaughter-in-law." Mr. Rolando raised his chin and replied, his tone sounded as proud as a peacock spreading its tail.

"Ah!! I should have known it! The nearby water balcony gets a month first! If I knew earlier, I would have told my grandson to come! My grandson is particularly innocent. He has never been in a relationship until now!" Benson shouted.

Aaron and Carl fell silent together.

Benson realized something was wrong. He looked back at their reactions and immediately found the problem. "You - you actually secretly do that. No, it is your grandson secretly found a girlfriend?"

"..."

The relationship was a little messy.

Benson stared at Aaron unbelievably, "Who told me before that his grandson stayed in the garret every day and never left home? He couldn't even meet or talk to a girl... How long has it been since you told me that? Tell me how he got a girlfriend? My grandson goes out every day but can't find a girlfriend."

Aaron raised his hands and said, "I really don't know. I only found out after listening to them. They told me that there was such a girl who lived with my grandson now..." As he spoke, his tone couldn't help but become a little proud. "Probably... I will have a great-grandson not long after."

Benson clutched his chest in disbelief. Then, he looked at Mr. Rolando, then looked at the others one by one. Everyone in this group had very capable grandchildren. Trevor was a genius. Randy was a gaming expert, who played games in an E-sports team. There was no need to mention Vincent. He had been famous in City Y for many years until now.

The more Benson thought about it, the more despair he felt. Compared with the others, his grandson was completely useless. He covered his face with his hands, feeling incomparably sad.

He was actually crying.
