"Evelyn, when we have time, I'll ask Yara and Caleb's dad. If they agree, I'll bring them over often. They've already been at Regency Bay for a few days, and Caleb's parents and Yara have been asking about them."
Evelyn had no choice but to temporarily tuck away her affection and reluctance.
"Alright, I'm just being silly."
Miles felt a knot in his chest watching the exchange. It felt as though a warm, loving family was being violently torn apart.
"Quinn, you promised my grandmother you'd bring them to visit. You'd better keep your word."
Quinn shot him a frosty glare, her fingers tightening. They were about to get divorced, yet he still thought he could order her around?
"Weird Uncle, Caleb and I are going to start kindergarten soon. We'll come visit when we have free time."
Caleb already knew the truth. He and his sister were this man's children, and the elderly woman before him was his great-grandmother. A part of him didn't want to leave either.
But his mother was more important. She had suffered so much, and it was all because of this Weird Uncle.
He couldn't tell his sister, though. She wore her heart on her sleeve and couldn't keep a secret.
Caleb proactively gave his great-grandmother a hug, his childish voice filled with warmth.
"Grandma Evelyn, I'll always miss you. Here is the number for my smartwatch. You can call me anytime."
"Oh, my sweet Caleb. Sweet Luna. You two are my precious angels."
Somehow, those words comforted Evelyn. Her sorrow eased. If she missed them in the future, she could just have Ingrid take her to visit them.
At that thought, the tears in her eyes receded, replaced by a radiant glow.
Ingrid was equally amazed by how clever and well-behaved the boy was. "These two are just so precious. Their parents raised them incredibly well. So polite, so respectful to their elders, and so thoughtful at such a young age."
Jack chimed in with praise. "They are absolutely darling. So polite and sweet."
"Goodbye, Grandma Evelyn!"

I would have accepted the jerk husband ending up with the heroine if he’s only powerful, intelligent but he’s so powerless and so stupid....
Can you make Ethan be the endgame? That Miles is a total jerk....
