Ethan’s Vengeance of Love

Old Mr. Rowland found Old Mr. Knight’s phone number and wasted no time in dialing it. The phone was quickly

answered, but the voice on the other end was not very friendly.

“Are you out of your mind? Look at what time it is now! It’s almost midnight. You may not need to sleep, but I’m

different!”

“Holland, I have good news to tell you.” However, Old Mr. Rowland was not angry at all even though he was being

yelled at. Instead, he was still in a very good mood.

“What good news could you possibly have?” Nonetheless, his old buddy snorted coldly on the other end of the

phone.

“Well, well. It’s something that you would have never expected. I have a great-grandson now.” Old Mr. Rowland

could not help but boast about his great-grandson. So, obviously, his voice was accompanied by a hint of gloating.

There was a dead silence on the other end of the phone, and it was only after a few seconds that Old Mr. Knight

sneered, “What kind of dreams are you having?”

“I’m not dreaming. It’s the truth. You know I won’t joke about this kind of stuff. Let me ‘enlighten’ you about how

adorable, well-behaved, sensible, intelligent, and witty my great-grandson is—”

Old Mr. Knight promptly hung up on his friend, cutting Old Mr. Rowland’s excitement short. Mr. Rowland was

surprised for a moment, but swiftly dialed the number again, assuming that the hang-up was an error.

Regardless, Old Mr. Knight still answered the phone this time, but his tone was obviously annoyed because he

started cursing Old Mr. Rowland, “James, are you out of your mind? You should go see a doctor.”

Even the cursing did not affect Old Mr. Rowland’s good mood. Instead, he burst out laughing, “Holland, why did you

hang up so quickly? I really have a great-grandson now. If you don’t believe me, I’ll send you photos and videos

tomorrow to prove it to you—”

Old Mr. Knight did not hesitate to hang up the phone again, but this time, Old Mr. Rowland did not dial back. He

decided to prove it to his old friend by sending photos and videos of his great-grandson tomorrow. The photos and

videos would surely make Old Mr. Knight jealous, especially when his great-grandson was so adorable.

Meanwhile, Mrs. Rowland was so excited that she could not fall asleep. So, instead, she contacted toy companies,

children’s clothing companies, and anything else she could think of a child of Apollo’s age might need in the middle

of the night so that they could bring things over to her house early in the morning.

So, the next morning, the Rowland Family received all kinds of children’s supplies ordered by Mrs. Rowland. Keith

was dumbfounded when he came downstairs and saw most of the hall was filled with children’s supplies, leaving

him with no place to even stand. He looked at his mother, who was happily organizing all the items, and said, “Mom,

are you planning to move all the children’s supplies companies into our home?”

“I think your mother did a great job this time. Let’s see what Apollo likes when he wakes up,” said the usually strict

and frugal Old Mr. Rowland. He was fully supportive of his daughter-in-law’s actions and had no objections

whatsoever.

Mrs. Rowland’s face beamed with a sense of achievement as she replied to Keith, “Well, I don’t know what Apollo

likes, so I had to buy everything.” She had been married to the Rowland Family for so many years, and this was the

first time she had received such direct praise from her father-in-law.

Keith was speechless. He noticed that his status in the family plunged ever since Apollo arrived at the Rowland

Residence last night. No one would listen to him speak at all because everyone’s attention was on Apollo. Well, not

that he was complaining or that he was against his mother buying things for Apollo, but he highly doubted if Apollo

could even use all of them at once.

“Apollo hasn’t woken up yet, right? Don’t disturb him. Let him sleep. I’ll take care of him later.” Mrs. Rowland

thought that it was her responsibility to take care of her grandson since she was his Grandma; her son was almost

30 years old, but never in a million years would she have dreamt that this day would finally arrive.

Just as she finished speaking, she glanced up and saw Apollo walking down the stairs, dressed neatly and cleanly,

looking even more adorable and likable than last night.

“Ah, Apollo, you’re already up! And I can see that you’ve even washed up. I have to say that I am amazed!” It would

be disingenuous to say that she was not surprised at all. After all, most, if not all, seven-year-olds still required adult

assistance with their daily routines.

Old Mr. Rowland could not help but let out a satisfied smile. “Excellent, my boy! You’re indeed really sensible, and of

course, it’s all because of your mother’s good parenting.”

Apollo smiled gently as he heard Old Mr. Rowland praise his mother, feeling happy at the compliment. Of course,

Old Mr. Rowland had also noticed that Apollo was protective of Alice and knew that Apollo would appreciate anyone

who praised her. Therefore, he made sure to compliment Alice when he praised Apollo as well. Regardless, his

admiration for Alice was genuine and not just to please Apollo, as he truly liked her as a person.

“Indeed, James, you are absolutely correct,” Mrs. Rowland said with a smile. She had previously harbored some

resentment towards Alice due to her unwillingness to marry, but she now understood that her assessment of Alice

had been erroneous. She had to admit that her father-in-law and son had a keen eye for people and had noticed

something in Alice that she had overlooked.

“Apollo, take a look at what Grandma bought for you. You can keep them if you like them. Otherwise, we’ll return

it,” Mrs. Rowland greeted Apollo with a smile on her face. While the Rowlands were not short of money, Old Mr.

Rowland was always thrifty, and any wasteful behavior was not allowed in the Family. So, anything that was not

chosen today would definitely be returned by Mrs. Rowland.

Apollo looked at the room full of things and did not know what to say. In fact, his Grandma had bought everything

according to the preferences of a normal seven-year-old child. Unfortunately, unbeknownst to the Rowland Family,

he had lost interest in overly childish things even though he was only seven.

Nonetheless, he still symbolically chose a few sets of clothes and some household items. He found toys and the like

to be too childish, and he stopped playing with them when he was three years old. So, he did not choose any of the

toys.

“Is this all you want? Don’t you like anything else?” Mrs. Rowland was a little stunned to see that her grandson

chose so little. He didn’t even touch the toys! She then continued coaxing, “Don’t you want any toys? The people

from the toy company say that these are the latest and best-selling toys.”

Old Mr. Rowland seemed to have realized that Apollo was far more mature and sensible than the average child.

Hence, he said, “Let him be if he doesn’t like any toys. He’s different from other children, haven’t you noticed?”

“What kind of toys do you like? I’ll have those sent over!” Alas, Mrs. Rowland was not one to give up that easily.

After all, she had waited for a grandson for so long that she just wanted to give the best things in the world to

Apollo.

Although Apollo was only seven years old, he had inherited his mother’s extraordinary IQ and had even

outperformed her on numerous occasions. He had also inherited her amazing business acumen and had been

studying business since he was four years old. His computer abilities were likewise exceptional. As a result, he had

little interest in toys and other childish things because he had so many productive activities to do in his spare time.

Still, since he had just recently joined the Rowland Family, he was cautious to reveal his true abilities.
