Chapter 988
When Kennedy returned, he bumped into Maisie and was surprised. “Why are you out here, Zee?”
Maisie walked toward him. “Uncle
Kennedy, what do you think about Aunt Samantha?”
She had overheard their conversation.
Something had happened between the two of them, and that was why they were ‘avoiding each other.
Kennedy didn’t say a word.
Maisie sighed. “If you really don’t have feelings for her, you should tell her sooner rather than later. However, if you feel the same, I think you should be a little braver.’
Kennedy looked away and slowly said, “I don’t know what’s on my mind. I’ve always been focused on work and never thought about getting married or if I could really do that, taking care of both my family and career. Samantha is a great woman. She had a failed marriage, but I never had one.
“I can’t promise that I’ll be able to give her stability, and I definitely can’t guarantee I won’t disappoint her. I’m afraid I might fail.”
Maisie smiled. “How do you know that you’ll fail if you never try?”
Kennedy fell silent. She smiled again. “No one would know how their marriage would turn out and what they would have to face, the good or the bad. But how would you know the outcome if you never tried? Aunt Samantha had a failed marriage, but she still hopes for happiness. Uncle Kennedy. you deserve it as well.’
Kennedy was stunned. He never thought that someone younger would be giving him life lessons. He helplessly smiled. “I was being too harsh to myself.”
“It’s alright to be harsh. I believe you do that because you want to take good care of your family, and you’ll be able to do that.” Maisie tapped his shoulder.
Kennedy smiled too.
