“Yes. That’s exactly what I mean.” As Timothy listened to them, tears welled up in his eyes, and he felta surge of pride. “It’s no surprise you’re Ren’s children. You’re both very intelligent, and your thinking isvery mature. Your emotions are also stronger than your father’s. It’s the Hunt family’s good fortune tohave gotten such good genes from the Everheart family.”novelbin
Alexander was astounded by his grandchildren’s intelligence, but he wasn’t about to give in as heprotested feebly, “Dad, Stefan’s genes aren’t bad either. If the children supposedly inherited theirmother’s emotional intelligence, they must have inherited their father’s intelligence as well.”
“Nonsense!” Timothy rolled his eyes at Alexander. “Did you know Ren is a top student? She skippedgrades and pursued her master’s and doctoral degrees in the most difficult subject, physics. Stefancannot compete with her – he’s only good at business.”
Renee had wheeled Stefan into the living room just as Timothy was criticizing him, and Stefan instantlyscowled.
“Oh, Ren, you’re here with Stefan! How thoughtful of you!” Francine approached them and joyfullyembraced Renee. She paid no attention to Stefan, who was seated in the wheelchair.
“It must have been exhausting for you to drive here while taking care of this nuisance, Ren. Come andtake a seat. Do you want anything to drink?” She guided Renee to the sofa and sat next to her, theninstructed the servant to prepare the best coffee possible.
“I’m not thirsty or tired.” Renee didn’t have the time to entertain Francine’s excessive cheerfulness asshe glanced at Timothy, her eyes teary as she said, “Grandpa Hunt, I’m sorry for being late. I had noidea…”
When Timothy heard this, he scoffed, “What do you mean by late? I’m still alive and kicking! I can eattwo plates of food at the same time, and I’m a great deal stronger than all of you kids put together!”
“That’s good.” Renee nodded with a wobbly smile, trying to keep her emotions in check.
The kids rushed into her arms to comfort her. “Mommy, don’t be sad. Great-grandpa promised to be astar and protect us.”
“Yes. We’ll all eventually become stars and meet in the sky!” Renee was touched by her children’swords.
Everyone talked and laughed together, and the atmosphere was warm and inviting. Only Stefan satalone in the wheelchair, looking depressed. Nobody bothered talking to him or even pushed himaround.
“Have you all finished talking? Is anybody going to pay attention to me?” He couldn’t keep his cool anylonger. “I hurt my back, you know. Isn’t anybody coming to assist me to move?”
Timothy looked at him and remarked flatly, “You’re a big man. Aren’t you embarrassed to admit that youdamaged your back?”
“It’s not like you broke your back,” Alexander scoffed. “What are you whining for?”
Francine, on the other hand, had no time for him since she was preoccupied with the children. Shewould feed Adie, and then Abby, her joyful laughter ringing out.
‘Are they ignoring me? This isn’t possible… It’s time for me to take action!’ Stefan thought.
