Feeling a bit shy, Mila blushed. She found an excuse to leave the living room, “Grandpa, I’ll go check on the baby. You guys can continue.”
“Okay,” Zach replied with a smile on his face.
Mila went upstairs to the baby’s room to see her son.
Only then did Zach reveal a sad expression. He sighed as he said to Nathan, “You’re still young, and you just married recently. There’s no need to move back here just to accompany an old man like me. “I’m okay with living alone. When people get old, it’s normal to feel lonely. I’m perfectly fine.”
“At my parents’ house, there are too many family members. Layla doesn’t really like Chubs, so she’s not comfortable living there. Living at Hoffis Manor, she’ll be more comfortable,” Nathan explained, trying to comfort him.
Upon hearing this, Zach’s thoughts wandered toward Layla. His expression couldn’t help but turn grim. “Was Layla the one that married Duke after getting rejected by you?” he asked. Nathan nodded.
“Nate, as a man, you must handle relationships with women around you properly. Whether they’re friends or relatives, if any of them show signs of being strange, you should keep your distance,” Zach advised, his tone serious.
“I’ll keep that in mind, Grandpa.”
“My granddaughter has always been possessive since childhood, you know?”
Nathan smiled as he replied, “I know.”
But from another perspective, wasn’t she also caring? That was why she was jealous, right?
Although not entirely sure of Mila’s sincerity, he chose to believe that she loved and cared for him. That was why she was jealous and possessive of all his affection.
Lost in thought, Nathan couldn’t help but look toward the baby’s room.
Zach continued, “There’s one more thing I want to ask from you.” Ads by PubFuture
Nathan snapped back to reality. He said earnestly, “Grandpa, you don’t have to be so polite. Just tell me directly. I’ll do it whenever I can.”
Zach sighed. “My son, daughter-in-law, and grandson are all imprisoned. I hope you can rescue them,” he urged with a hint of desolation.
Nathan reassured, “Grandpa, don’t
worry. Even if you didn’t mentionat, I would still rescue Dad, Mom, and Mila’s brother. The police have been investigating, but it will take some time.”

Zach’s eyes were moist as he nodded.
…
Mila told her in-laws about them moving to Hoffis Manor.
The two elders understood her feelings very well and sympathized with Zach’s situation. They thought Mila and Nathan should go back and accompany Zach.
It didn’t take long for them to move out from Morrison Residence and into Hoffis Manor.
The entire Hoffis Manor was thoroughly searched. All possible monitoring devices were checked and cleared.
Cole brought the entire security team into the Hoffis Manor to strictly guard it.
Finally, the magnificent home regained its former bustling atmosphere and vitality.
Zach said he wanted to hand over the business to Mila so he could retire to look after the baby at home.
Mila refused since she didn’t know how to handle the business. Plus she had her own mission and career
goals. After her maternity leave, she would return to work. Content

In the early morning, sunlight filtered through the tender buds of the trees and cast dappled shadows on the balcony.
It felt very warm.
After Mila woke up, she reached for

She sat up and rubbed her eyes. After that, she walked lazily toward the bathroom.
She leaned against the bathroom door for a while before lightly knocking on the door. “Nate, are you in there?” she asked. “Yeah,” Nathan replied. He then opened the door. A burst of warm air mixed with his scent rushed out from the bathroom. Before Mila could react, she felt a hand on her waist. Suddenly, she was pulled into a warm embrace.
She placed her hands on Nathan’s warm chest. Their bodies were so close to each other. Then, she was brought into the bathroom.
