William Adler didn’t want to bring up the dark past, nor did he want them to know about it.

Looking at the two little ones, William turned his gaze to First. “Weren’t you the one who disagreed with Hugo

Hodges before? Why are you suddenly defending him today?”

First understood that to make this happen, it couldn’t just be about sweet–talking. Some reasoning was

necessary.

After thinking for a moment, First spoke up, “I didn’t agree with Dad before because I didn’t know much. But

after spending some time with him, I realized he’s not as bad as I thought. You can see how much he cares

about Scarlett. Plus, I found out those things were false, so it’s normal to change my mind a bit!”

First’s honesty left William at a loss for words.

“Great–grandfather, I know you care about Scarlett and don’t want her to get hurt again. But how can you be

sure that being with someone else means she won’t get hurt?” First asked.

Second chimed in, “Take Yale Lowe, for example. He’s a good guy, but his family… It’s a good thing Scarlett

didn’t end up with him. Who knows what could have happened?”

Mentioning Yale Lowe made William furrow his brows.

Back then, he was all set on matchmaking, but thinking about his mother and the current state of the Lowe

Family, William Adler felt somewhat relieved that the two didn’t end up together.

Otherwise, the oue would have been worse than when he separated from Hugo Hodges.

With that thought, William felt a twinge of regret.

In this restless era, choosing to be with someone felt like a gamble, because ino /ione could predict the future,

nor could they see through a person’s true nature with the naked eye.

Everything seemed like a blind choice.

As William pondered deeply, First seized the moment to speak, “Great–grandfather, I know you still have

some reservations about Dad. We’re not saying we fully ept him now, but I think he could be considered

as a candidate to observe. If he remains the same as before, not only you, but the three of us won’t agree

either. But if Dad really has changed, he might not be a bad choice… Besides, you know him well, and now

with the three of us, even if Dad isn’t perfect, he won’t go too far, right?”

Listening to First, William looked at him and Second. “So, what do you two mean? What do you want me to

do?”

First smiled slightly, “Actually, there’s nothing much you need to do. Just don’t interfere and let Dad and

Scarlett develop naturally.”

William Adler looked at them and chuckled, “So, that’s why you two little rascals wanted toe grocery

shopping with me. Tell me, how did Hugo Hodges convince you to be his messengers?”

“Absolutely inot/i!” First dered.

“We swear!” Second added.

“So, you’re doing this voluntarily?”

“We just want Scarlett to be happy!” First exined.

“Yeah, in case we ever have to leave Scarlett, there should be someone to protect her!” Second blurted out.

“Leave? Where are you going?” William asked.

First turned to look at him, frowning.

Can’t you be more careful with your words???

Second paused for a moment, then quickly recovered,ughing as he spoke, “Of course, I mean going to

school or whatever. We will grow up eventually, right?” Heughed, trying to brush it off.

William nced at him and didn’t think much of it. Where could such young kids possibly go?

He figured they were just talking casually.

b“/bAlright, I get what you two mean. I’ll think about it,” William Adler said.

Seeing him relent, Alex and Jamie quickly chimed in, “Great–grandfather, you always doted on Scarlett!”

i“/iShe’s my granddaughter; of course, I dote on her!”

“So, Great–grandfather, tell us, why did Dad marry Scarlett if he liked her when they were young, only to

divorceter? Was it really because he thought Scarlett was too… in back then?” Jamie asked. He had

seen photos of Scarlett Adler from years ago, and she did look a bit… excessively in. But if that was the

only reason, it seemed a bit harsh.

Alex looked at William Adler with curiosity too.

Unexpectedly, Jamie had circled back to the topic.

William didn’t want to discuss it. He nced at the cherries on the fruit stand and quickly changed the

subject, “These look good. Let’s get some for your mom; she needs to eat more fruit.”

“Oh,e on, Great–grandfather, don’t change the subject! Tell us!” Jamie persisted.

“Or is there more to the story?” Alex asked.

William remained silent, continuing to pick out fruit. Why were these two kids so hard to distract?

“Forget it, forget it. If Great–Grandfather doesn’t want to talk about it, he must have his reasons. Let’s just go

back and ask Mom,” Alex suggested.

Hearing this, William Adler quickly interjected, “You can’t ask her!”

Seeing William’s reaction, both Alex and Jamie stood there, staring at him.

William sighed in resignation, b“/bAlright, alright, I’ll tell you. But you can’t go back and ask about it.”

Alex and Jamie nodded eagerly.

William thought for a moment before speaking, “When he was young, he spent a lot of time with your

great–grandfather. He did have feelings for your mom, but then something happened. He lost his memory,

and when he woke up, he was like a different person…”

William spoke vaguely, which was why he couldn’tpletely me Hugo Hodges.

After all, back then, Hugo became like this to save Scarlett Adler.

He did save Scarlett, but fate yed a cruel joke on him.

However, Alex and Jamie looked surprised. “Dad, he had amnesia?” Jamie asked.

“Is it really that dramatic?” Alex couldn’t believe it.

“It’s all in the past now. Just the two of you knowing is enough. Don’t spread it around and upset your mom,”

William Adler advised.

“Does Mom know about this?” asked Jamie.

William nodded. “She knows.”

“So, even knowing all this, Mom still married Dad? Is that right?” Jamie pressed.

These two kids really knew how to dig for answers.

William nodded again.

“Does that mean Scarlett actually has feelings for Dad too?” Alex wondered.

William pressed his lips together, unsure of how to respond.

Sensing his hesitation, Alex asked, “Great–grandpa, is there more to this story? Scarlett doesn’t seem like

someone who’d act irrationally.”

Realizing he couldn’t easily fool them, William revealed the final piece of the puzzle. “Hugo Hodges lost his

memory in an ident while saving your mom.”

Now, everything was clear.

Alex and Jamie exchanged a nce, realizing the gravity of the situation.

Everything was crystal clear now.

So, Dad wasn’t really at fault.

As for Scarlett, whether she had feelings for Daddy or was simply trying to “repay a favor,” their connection

ran deep.

“But what about Great–Grandfather…”

Seeing that they were about to ask more questions, William Adler felt he couldn’t handle it any longer.

“Alright, that’s enough. We should head back now,” he said, pushing the stroller and walking ahead.

It was as if he was trying to escape the scene.

First and Second exchanged a nce and smiled.
