Chapter 1495 

Antoine was at a loss for words, but Yates was unfazed, “What I did to her wasn’t exactly honorable, even a bit cruel. I’d rather she hated me than forgave me.” 

Antoine frowned. His granddad had always been his greatest supporter, always telling him he was as handsome as any movie star, which is why he’d pursued acting. Now, the thought of his beloved grandfather leaving this world was too much for him to bear. 

Yates seemed to read his thoughts and smiled at him. “Antoine, when you were a kid, you were my favorite. I know it’s hard for you to let me go, but such is life. We all have to face goodbyes.” 

Yates exhaled a smoke ring, the curling tendrils framing his weathered face in a sort of detached serenity. It was as if the youthful Yates, who had been driven by a vengeance so strong it sustained him for years, no longer had a reason to hold on now that the scores were settled. 

Antoine didn’t want to let go of such a grandfather and turned away, unable to watch him. Bevis did the same, head bowed, coming to terms with his own sadness. Only Peterson seemed to have accepted the inevitable, calmly staring at Yates without a word. 

Yates’ gaze shifted from Antoine to the stoic face of Peterson. “Aside from Eleanor, I feel I’ve wronged you too.”

He smiled apologetically, “By taking you in, your childhood and youth were different from your brothers’. By the time I realized, it was too late.” 

He sighed deeply, his eyes filled with both regret and a sense of peace, “Fortunately, you grew up to be kind-hearted despite it all. Otherwise, I’d have to meet your grandmother with shame.” 

Peterson wasn’t bothered by this at all. “Granddad, you’ve put a lot of effort into raising me and have been good to me. You were strict but never cruel. Even when you spanked me, you’d come at night while I was asleep to apply ointment.” 

Yates raised an eyebrow, “You knew?” 

Peterson nodded, “Yes, and I was grateful for it.” 

Yates smiled, relieved, then turned to his two sons sitting on the couch, “You two are getting on in years. Take your wives out more, travel. And don’t meddle in your kids’ love lives.” 

He specifically addressed Peterson’s father, “Look out for Peterson. Have a heart-to-heart with him, see if he’s got his eye on any girl. If he does, as his father, it’s your job to arrange
