Chapter 887 Lost in Ecstasy When my father sawlooking at him, he quickly resumed his smile. "I should do it myself. I need to throw sthings I don't need anymore away too." As soon as I heard him say that, I knew he was thinking about it, so I quickly seized the opportunity to convince him to follow through. "We'll have speace of mind after we deal with that. It'll be better to not have to think about what things are like there every year. Won't that just be asking for trouble?" "But we should never forget our roots," he said.
"Dad. Aren't I part of your roots? You should be wherever I am too." I said confidently.
My dad smiled but didn't say anything. He was probably still thinking about how to handle this.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtAtlas understood what I was thinking and said, "Chlo is right, Dad. You should just settle down here. I'll send someone with you to help pack your things and deal with the house one day." "It's okay. Your mom and I can go back together when the tcomes. It'll be easy to deal with the house. Speople in the area will probably be interested in it," he said vaguely, looking like he was still attached.
I quickly added, "Don't ask for too high a price. Take the offer as long as it's reasonable. Or sell it cheap if someone wants it." He hesitated but eventually nodded reluctantly.
Atlas and I exchanged a smile. It seemed like this matter was now settled.
But I felt a little uneasy. It looked like my dad had a secret.
As our conversation ended, we heard Ava's sweet voice calling. "Grandpa, what's that?" We all turned to look. Ava was pointing at a breadfruit tree heavy with fruit.
My dad smiled and said, "That's the breadfruit you eat every day." Ava blinked her big eyes, staring at the fruit on the tree. "But the breadfruit I eat is yellow. Why is this one so dark, like a big winter melon? It's so ugly." Jenny immediately countered, "No, that's wrong. Winter melons are smooth, but this one has bumps." I laughed and turned to my dad. "Why is it so big though?" "These saplings are sof the best varieties of breadfruit from many countries. Of course they're the best." My dad led Ava and Jenny into the orchard on a cement path that had been paved through the middle. "There are all kinds of fruits inside here. It's peak fruit harvesting season right now. Let's start by picking the smaller ones and gather a Bunch to take home." Ava and Jenny started running around the orchard once they got used to the new place.
The blueberries in the orchard were large, round, and deep blue in color. I picked one and put it in my mouth.
When Ava sawdoing that, her eyes widened and she pointed at me, shouting to Atlas, "Daddy, Mommy's eating blueberries without even washing them! That's so unhygienic." Atlas had one too, and looked utterly delighted.

Then, she turned and ran to Jenny. "Con, Jenny! You can eat the blueberries here. Mommy just gave En.one, and they're so sweet." She had discovered a new world, and was staring wide-eyed at Jenny, expressing her amazement.
Then she picked one and stuffed it into Jenny's mouth, asking, "Is it sweet?" Jenny immediately nodded. "Yeah!"
The two of them quickly extended their little hands to pick and eat more blueberries while giggling: Before long, their little mouths were stained with blueberry juice.
Even Atlas's lips had a hint of blue. We indulged in blueberries picked smanganates star En fruits, lychees, and even peaches... All the fruits were large and round, especially the lychees. I tasted one, and it was sweet and refreshing.
