Journey to Happy Ending novel Chapter 824

"Justin, let me ask you a question. If your grandpa on your mother's side wants to see you, will you meet him?" Edward's question was tentative. There was a sudden silence inside the car as neither he nor Justin said anything.

"Daddy, is he the grandpa who dislikes Mom?" It was Justin who broke the pressure surrounding them. He raised his head and looked at his daddy in wonder.

"Yes, you're right. Is it ok if he pays you a visit when it's convenient for both of you?" Edward wouldn't force his son to meet Leo, therefore, he was offering his child an option instead.

"Can I think about it?" The little boy puckered his mouth. 'Since this man once disliked Mommy, why would he want to see me? But then, he's still Mommy's biological father and my grandpa. What should I do?' he thought, indecisive.

"Of course. Take your time. Just tell me yes or no once you get an answer," answered Edward and smiled back. The car drove slowly on its way to Mu Manson. They would be back home soon.

"Will he feel sad if I refuse?" Another innocent question came from Justin as he stared at his daddy. It was then that the car stopped at the parking lot.

"Maybe. But if you don't want to see him, just tell me and I'll let him know," Edward replied in a comforting voice. He had kept this topic from Daisy. He would be less worried if Justin refused. Daisy hated Leo after all. She would definitely go against him once she learned that it was him who arranged for the two to meet.

"Forget it. Let me sleep over it. I'm gonna tell you about my decision tomorrow," his son said gloomily. Justin, who was cheerful earlier, was preoccupied with trouble when they got home. Thus, Daisy automatically wondered upon seeing her child the moment she greeted the two home.

"Son, what happened at school? Did you get into a fight with other kids?" she asked curiously and seriously. She was wearing an apron and it was easy to say that she was cooking. When she heard the noise in the yard, she ran out of the kitchen and came across his son who looked sad and troubled.

"It's nice to see you at this hour of the day, Mommy," said Justin. He threw himself into his mommy's arm and didn't mind the oil stains on her apron.

"Me too, son." Daisy's hands were wet so she raised her hands high and let Justin embrace her waist instead.

"Mommy, you smell good," her child murmured as he rubbed his nose against his Mommy. She smelt of smoke, that was one thing for sure. But that same smell was Mommy's fragrance for Justin's baby mind.

"My boy, I'm cooking Cola Chicken Wings for you." She pushed her son a bit away and looked him in the eye. Her baby surely had a cute face. Meanwhile, Edward was clearly enchanted by Daisy's gentle glances.

"Yey! You're the best mom ever. I know you'll cook a big dinner for me and daddy," said Justin joyously. He smiled and immediately forgot whatever trouble he had in his mind. Nothing was more important than his mom.

"I know you're a chowhound. Now wash your hands. Dinner's coming soon." Although Daisy wanted to cook each and every dinner for her son and husband, she couldn't do that due to her duties and responsibilities as a soldier. Cooking delicious meals for them whenever she could was her way to make up for her constant absence.

"Ok, I'm gonna wash my hands." Justin obediently said. He rushed upstairs and disappeared when he turned the corner. It was then that Daisy turned her gaze from her son to her husband.

"What's wrong? What're you staring at?" Daisy said those words with an intensity that made Edward nervous. He lowered his head and examined himself to check if there was something wrong with him.
