Veronica CEO's Underworld Queen novel Chapter 115

　　This is the scene that the old master Sy witnessed.

　　In his heart, he felt warmth and a tinge of loneliness. His family could even manage to be happy on their own without him.

　　The old master Sy looked at his younger son from another woman. The young man turned out great, he couldn't be anymore happy. Then he stared at his wife, despite the estrangement all those years, they are still married because the woman is smart and just didn't even bother with him and rather lived her life free from him.

　　Instead of suffering from the misery of her husband's infidelity, she took it as an opportunity to separate houses and decided to even talk to him like how married couples should.

　　Without their grandchildren, he doubts that Vanessa would be patient enough to even take a look at him.

　　She's strong, independent, rational and doesn't dwell on her emotions if it's destructive, it's the same attributes he fell for her for, and the same attributes he wished she didn't possess.

　　Maybe….maybe… the old master Sy stopped this train of thought.

　　No matter how regretful he is, it still wouldn't change the fact that he was the one who betrayed her first. He was the one who disappointed her.

　　He was looking at Vanessa when their grandson, Baelfire saw him from the entrance. "Grandpa is here."

　　Vanessa looked over at him and their eyes met. The woman then took her eyesight from him as if she only saw a distant acquaintance and not a husband for more than forty years.

　　The old master Sy could only hide the sadness and longing in his eyes when his butler/former secretary touched him, sensing the emotional change in his master.

　　They have been companions for many years, funny but true enough, it's like a husband and wife are familiar with each other, even to the point of sensing the other's fluctuating emotion.

　　Seeing his father approaching, Ric put down the little girl in his embrace, and walked to meet the old man halfway. He bowed in respect and filial.

　　"Father, how are you?" He then bowed to Secretary Pito which made the latter bow back.

　　The old man tapped him on the shoulder, even if this son is of another woman and not by his wife, the old master Sy is fond of him because of his upright and kind character.

　　He's been sharply observing this son from afar. And he couldn't be any more happier that his most beloved son, Rawlf, even if he didn't really show it, is guiding his younger brother carefully.

　　Rawlf on the other hand nodded to the old man at the same time, greeted only the word "father" and he did the same with Secretary Pito.
