Chapter 1394: The Answer Tristan Wanted
Tristan knew it was time to be honest. Facing the middle-aged man's gaze, his thoughts were seen
through with just one look. Since it was an honest conversation between two men, there was no need
for Tristan to hide anything. If he was honest, Uncle Swain would be honest too.
So Tristan gathered his thoughts and told him, "I just asked Monica a question today."
Algerone Swain listened carefully without interrupting, sipping his tea as he looked at him.
"I asked her what her wishes were," Tristan said. "I didn't expect her biggest wish to be for you to
remarry her mother."
The topic of marriage weighed heavily on Algerone Swain's mind. After all, this marriage had been a
pain in his life. They had separated awkwardly for so many years, and in the blink of an eye, they had
reached middle age. When he thought back to the past, all that was left were regrets. Algerone Swain
didn't say anything, as if brewing something in his thoughts.
Tristan took a sip of tea and spoke again, "But Monica is very rational. She said you remarried and
have a new life now. She accepts and blesses it, but her wish can only remain a wish in the end."
There was a brief silence in the living room. Tristan was both expectant and nervous.
"I did remarry, but it didn't last two years before we divorced again." Algerone Swain smiled and calmly
admitted, "So when it comes to marriage, the original partner is better."
A glimmer of light flashed in Tristan's eyes, and he stared intently at Uncle Swain. This answer was
undoubtedly a ray of sunshine in the dark for Tristan! It was great! As long as he was still single,
everything would be easier to handle.
Just when he didn't know whether to celebrate or sigh, Algerone Swain sighed lightly and then put on a
smile, "Tristan, what do you like about Monica?"
The conversation shifted to him.
Tristan thought seriously about the question his future father-in-law had posed, pondering for about a
minute. He couldn't find a suitable reason. "I don't know, I just like her. It's a feeling that has entered my
heart. I want to be good to her and help her fulfill her wishes. It's that simple."
"My daughter was raised by her mother alone, and her personality has some edges to it. Are you sure
you really like this kind of girl?" Algerone Swain didn't want his daughter to get hurt.
"In my opinion, she's just straightforward, and I can accept it," Tristan said with genuine tolerance. He
looked up and asked, "Uncle Swain, I want to ask you another question now. It might be a bit abrupt
and presumptuous."
"It's okay, go ahead and ask." Algerone Swain could also accept anything, as they would all become
family sooner or later. Moreover, there were no unaskable questions between men.
Tristan took a sip of tea and asked in the most appropriate tone, "What are the chances of you and
Belinda getting back together?"
This was a question Algerone Swain had asked himself more than once. The probability didn't really
have anything to do with him, but rather with Belinda, right?
Seeing that he didn't answer, Tristan continued, "You divorced not long after your second marriage. It
wasn't because the woman wasn't good enough, but because you couldn't let go of Belinda, right?"
Though Tristan had never experienced marriage, he was still an adult. Algerone Swain didn't deny this
and smiled as a response. Tristan didn't ask further, as he had gotten the answer he wanted tonight.novelbin
If Monica found out that Algerone Swain was still single, she would certainly be very happy, right? With
that thought, Tristan's heart felt as sweet as if it were filled with honey.
So they talked about other things, such as work, life, and Monica. Sipping tea and chatting, the night
was quite pleasant, just like family.
