Chapter 526 Four Puzzled Faces
Malcolm was confused.
These kids are my apprentice’s children. Why can’t I show them off?
“Great-grandpa…” Franklin and Sophia looked at Kenneth and called out to him after they lowered the ice cream in their hands.
Even Xavian and Clayton recognized him and said, “Grandpa…”
As soon as the children addressed Kenneth, they all looked at each other, puzzled.
“Xavian, Clayton, what is going on?” Franklin raised an eyebrow and asked. “Do you guys know our Great-grandpa?”
“He’s your Great-grandpa?” Xavian and Clayton pointed at Kenneth.
Sophia nodded affirmatively.
“Mmhmm. He’s daddy’s Grandpa, which makes him our Great-grandpa!”
Hearing that gave Malcolm an instant realization. “You’re Samuel’s grandfather?” he said while pointing at Kenneth.
“That’s right! Samuel is my grandson, and Franklin and Sophia are my great-grandchildren.” Kenneth stared at Malcolm. “Why are my great-grandchildren here with you? What in the world is going on?”
“I’m your grandson’s master. Is it not normal for me to be with them?” Malcolm’s mind was blown. “This is incredible! Even though I knew you both had the same last names, I actually never thought about making that connection.”
How complicated yet surprising for this to be the case.
Once things got cleared up, Malcolm and Kenneth both had their jaws wide open for quite a bit before closing them shut.
The two met each other after they got old, and neither of them ever talked about anything related to money. So, their conversations mainly revolved around health and current issues. No one had any interest in the other’s family background.
Neither of them would have expected that one was Samuel’s grandfather while the other Samuel’s master.
