information. What was the guest's name?”
While the staff listened to the answer, Frank and Kara exchanged
glances. Their breath was held. Their hearts were beating faster.
“Report, Sir. The nof the guest is Sean. He cwith his wife. He walks with a cane.”
Hearing that name, Frank and Kara breathed a sigh of relief. The twins turned around with round eyes. “What?

“Yes, Young Master.”
With sparkling eyes, Louis looked at his sister. “Emily, we can’t just stay here. We have to welcthem!”
Emily nodded slightly. “Yeah. Let’s meet Sean!”
Seeing that the two toddlers had already run, Frank kissed Kara's forehead. “Wait here. We won't be long.” After

“Sean! Sean!”
Ignoring Sean's slightly limping standing position, the twins rushe him with a hug. Sean couldn't do much. He

Instead of feeling relieved, Emily pouted. “The Moore family is so evil. You guys have nothing to do with us. They

Looking at Sean’s wife, Emily took a deep breath. “I hope you're not angry with us, Ma'am.”
The woman beside Sean widened her smile and shook her head. “You don’t need to worry, Young Lady. Our

“Daddy,” Emily called when Frank just opened his mouth, “let's chat
inside. Not here.”
Frank sighed in amusement. His hand that was about to offer a greeting changed direction. He patted Sean's
arm and walked bes
him.

Sean glanced at Frank with a meaningful smile.
“Is that why you didn’t attend Philip and Aunt Barbara's wedding? Because their last nisn’t Harper?” Louis
inquired.
Sean snorted faintly. “No, | actually intended to attend. But two weeks ago, | still couldn't walk properly. | don’t

“You hurt because you tried to protect your family, Sean. You
shouldn't be ashamed.” Emily shook her head slowly. Her eyes looked. rounder from Sean’s perspective.
“Yeah, you should just come. No one will dare judge you. You are part of our family.” Louis nodded reassuringly.
Hearing those sweet voices, Sean’s heart warmed. “Thank you, Young Master and Young Lady. | really appreciate
your kindness.”
“You're welcome, Sean.”
A few moments later, Louis waved his hand. “Uncle Jeremy! Look
who's here!”
Jeremy turned around. Seeing the guest those kids brought in, his eyebrows rose. “Sean?” He shook the man’s
hand then patted him on
the back.
“Congratulations on your wedding, Jeremy.”

“His gift?” Jeremy furrowed an eyebrow.
Sean took out a letter. “Mr. Rowan once toldto hand this over to you, right on your wedding day.”
Jeremy glanced at Frank briefly. “Aren't you mistaken? That's for me?
Not Frank?”
Sean nodded. “Read it.”
While Sean and his wife turned to Ava, Jeremy opened the envelope and unfolded the paper. Rowan’s
handwriting immediately greeted
him.
“Jeremy, my grandson, congratulations on your wedding. Sorry | couldn’t attend your special day. But remember,
my best wishes are always with you.”
Jeremy covered his mouth with a fist, blocking the tears from coming out. Frank massaged one of his shoulders.
However, Jeremy's attention was not diverted at all. His eyes focused on the next line.
“Now that you are married, your responsibilities have increased. Be a good husband and father. Learn from my
experience. Even though I never told you about it directly, I'm sure you know. | hope you can treat your family
much better than | did before. That way, the happiness around you will be much warmer than what I felt with
your grandmother and father before.”
Jeremy lowered the letter while looking up. He was sure his eyes were filled with tears. He didn’t want anyone to
see it.
“Uncle Jeremy, does the letter make you sad?”
Emily's voice made him glance over. “No. This actually makesfee very happy.” Jeremy forced a smile.
“If you're happy, why are you crying? Louis tilted his head.

“That's because when sad and happy signals appear,” Ava said softly, “the parasympathetic nervous system will

hand.
“Uncle, you're very lucky to get a letter from Grandpa Rowan.”
“Yeah, it’s no wonder Uncle is happy
Stuffing the letter into his pocket, Jeremy muttered, “Yeah, I'm very

lit up. “What's so special about the dining room?”
“Con, Emily! Let's just check it out ourselves!”
The twins made another run. As soon as they saw the hallway made. of strings of yellow lights with a super long
dining table underneath, they gasped.
“Wow, this is really cool!” Louis blinked and let his mouth fallen. Beside him, Emily nodded slowly.
“Yeah, it’s like in a fairy land.” A second later, she waved at Kara Mommy, chere quickly! Look at our dining
table tonight. W get married, | want my dining table to be like this too.”
Kara laughed a little. Holding Frank’s hand, she walked faster.

their hearts.
