This was especially so when his daughter was still pregnant at the moment.
When Keith saw that Merlin was crying, he hurriedly said, “Merlin, there will be great blessings after a catastrophe. You should be happy, so why are you crying?!”
Having said that, he quickly turned to Kathleen and said with great appreciation, “Miss Fox, I have to say that your solution just now is really perfect. Still, even though you have to write this cheque, the money still has to come from the Acker family. You have already helped us so much, so we cannot let you spend any more money.”
Kathleen smiled slightly and said, “Okay, Lord Acker. I’ll do as you say.”
Keith then said to Merlin, “Merlin, when the time comes, let Christian arrange for your wife and daughter to come here directly. It just so happens that Miss Fox is staying for lunch. Your family should be arriving after lunch, so your family of three can be reunited after the meal!”
Merlin wiped away his tears and nodded heavily.
Keith said to Kathleen, “Miss Fox, I hope to delay your time a little after the meal. Your plan is impeccable, but it will be even better and more convincing if you can stay and explain the situation to Merlin’s wife and daughter in person later. What do you think?”
Kathleen said without hesitation, “No problem, Lord Acker. I don’t have any other plans in the afternoon, anyway.”
“Okay!” Keith laughed heartily and said, “I’m so happy today! Merlin came back from the dead and will be able to reunite with his family in our presence! I’m so happy! Christian, remember to record a video of everything later and show it to me again in case I forget about it tomorrow!”
Christian nodded without hesitation and said, “Okay, Dad. All of us will turn on the camera on our cell phones and record everything!”
What Keith said really improved Merlin’s mood. He quickly said to Christian, “Christian, please help me to do one more thing. Can you get someone to help me buy a bouquet of roses?”
Christian joked, “Okay, Merlin, you’ve developed romantic cells now! Just wait, and I’ll arrange everything for you!”
