Everett turned around and looked at Wade, who was walking towards him. "Hello, grandpa."
Wade was dressed in a red training suit, his hair was grey, and he was in high spirits.
He glanced at Everett and said, "Take a walk with me."
"Okay."
They walked out of the old mansion and walked leisurely on the road.
Wade asked first, "How long are you going to stay at home this time?"
Wade was asking when would he go abroad again.
"It depends."
Everett looked ahead with deep eyes.
Wade's eyes twitched at his words and said, "If you are free, come to visit me as much as possible."
"I'm getting old. I want you to accompany me."
Everett looked at Wade. "I'll visit you more often when I have time."
In Everett's mind, Wade was more important than all the other members of the Westons.
Wade smiled. "Good, I'm glad to hear that."
They did not say anything about Everett's affairs but just chatted casually as usual.
When they went back, they met Shepherd and Harvey, who just came back from running, and they went back to the old mansion, chatting and laughing.
"We're wondering when you will come back. We dare not cook dumplings. You are afraid that if we cook too early, it'll not taste good if you come back too late."
Cristina heard the sound and came out.
Shepherd laughed, his voice loud and clear. "We're back now."
"Okay, we'll cook dumplings now."
Cristina went into the kitchen, and Emma followed in to help.
Belle took out the ginseng tea and put it in front of the old masters.
Shepherd looked around and said, "My second brother and second sister-in-law didn't get up yet?"
When they came back, only Emma, Cristina and Belle were in the living room.
There was no one else.
Hearing that, Belle said, "They've got up. My dad is playing chess with Kingsley in the tea room next door. And my mom and Melody are watching."
Not long after they left, Reid, Kingsley, Leona, and Melody came downstairs one after another.
Kingsley seldom visited Reid, and finally they got together during the new year.
So Kingsley suggested playing chess with his father-in-law.
They went to the tea room and hadn't come out yet.
Shepherd smiled and said, "That's great. Let's go and see how the chess battle is going!"
Everyone went over after hearing Shepherd's words.
But not Everett.
His phone rang.
Everett went out with his phone. Belle looked at his figure and looked upstairs, feeling relieved.
It was the first time Brayden and Olivia spent the night at the old mansion. Everett must have seen how they loved each other after last night, let alone the fact that they were always affectionate.
Everett stopped in front of a pine tree and answered the call.
"I know you're busy. I have to make an appointment now. When do you have time?"
A familiar voice came, accompanied by a familiar smile.
Everett looked at the pine as if he was looking at something else through it.
"Tomorrow."
"That's good. I'll be in Capital City tomorrow and call you when I get there."
"Yes."
After the phone hung up, Everett blinked slowly, and her eyes fell on the branches and leaves of the green pine.
In the new year, it seemed to be more energetic.
Belle went back to the kitchen to see if there was anything she could help with.
Cristina saw her come in and said, "Belle, wake up those who are still asleep. After having breakfast, we'll go worship our ancestors. They can have a good rest after coming back."
