Chapter 514
Cole's voice was raspy, carrying the weight of a man who was just starting to bounce back from a serious illness.
"What else? Work and the usual company stuff."
Yale dropped what he was doing and answered with an easy smile. "Dad, are you feeling under the weather or
something? How about | swing by in the next couple of days?"
Cole was getting on in years and had becpretty clingy, always hoping his kids, especially Evangeline, would
caround to the family hfor a visit.
That call was a wake-up call for Yale. He had been so wrapped up in Evangeline and Yessica's business that he
would put the old man on the back burner. That was not appropriate.
"You scamp, if | didn't ring you up, you'd never think to drop by, would you?"
Cole's voice was teasing, but Yale could hear the smile in his words. He was not really mad; he just wanted them
to cand hang out with him.
"Too caught up in work, huh?"
Yale chuckled awkwardly.
Grown-ups could act like kids. There was, his dad, the great and powerful, getting all pouty like a little one.

softened. "You're all swamped with work, | get it, you can't drop by. But what about Evie? She's expecting, she
can't be as tied up as you guys, right? Or did you rope her into working too?"
By the end, Cole sounded genuinely concerned.
His darling granddaughter was carrying the future of the Foster family. How could they let work stress her out at
such a crucial time?
Yale felt a sting of guilt at his father's words.
"Dad, don't jump to conclusions. Evie is our priority right now, and no one is letting her lift a finger. Remember
the car crash fiasco? Evie got off with a scare, and that's why she hasn't been able to visit."
Yale had called hwith the news of Evangeline's safety right after the accident, so Cole was in the
loop.
Under normal circumstances, after such a close call, Evangeline should have cto see Cole with Walter.
However, the situation with her and Walter...
Yale adored his niece and did not want Evangeline to trouble herself for a visit, always making excuses to keep
her comfortable.
Of course, the other Foster brothers were on the spage. They had managed to put off Evangeline's visit to
see Cole until then.
However, Cole, who had been given the runaround by his sons a few times already, was determined to get some
straight answers before he picked up the phone.
