When Isadora saw Vireo laughing, she felt even more embarrassed. "Holden, I'm sorry. I feel that I am a woman, so I should know how to cook. I wanted to cook something good for you and I'm afraid that you'll be hungry, but…"However, she had already finished using all the ingredients in Holden's fridge. In the end, she did not even manage to make a single decent dish. She was thinking that he had seen Jane making gnocchi when she had nothing to do at home. She had put tomatoes and some vegetables in it and the gnocchi was extremely delicious. Gnocchi were easy to make. It was just mashing and mixing some flour, potatoes, and egg, and it was all done after just boiling them. In the end, Isadora failed at making gnocchi even after she had finished a small bag of flour that Vireo had bought. Instead, her face, hair, and apron were all covered in flour.Since she failed at making gnocchi, she thought of making custard pudding. Isadora had often seen Jane making custard puddings for the c
The way she looked was extremely cute in Vireo's eyes. It was so heartwarming and it made him want to squeeze her tightly in his arms very badly."Are you hungry?" the man asked gently."Mm-hmm." Isadora was truly hungry. When she was at the restaurant, she was so focused on listening to Vireo talking about his past that she did not eat much at all. On top of that, she had spent more than an hour tidying up all the things in the rooms after she had entered the house, so she really was a little hungry."Come on, I'll take you to wash your face. After that, you can just sit and watch television in the living room and wait for me. I'll be done with the cooking in half an hour." The man led Isadora toward the bathroom. He could not bear to clean up her dirty little face, but he knew that Isadora would be shy.As expected, when Isadora saw herself in the mirror, she first lowered her head shyly, then she bent over laughing, and moved around in his arms. Her movements instantly ignited t
Isadora did not know how to do that. She knew nothing. She had been wandering everywhere with her brother, and she was dressed like a man for most of the time. She did not even have the chance to fall in love, much less kiss. Her life truly was very empty after living for more than thirty years. She looked at Vireo with a clear and confused, and also expectant and pitiful gaze. She did not know how to answer him.Vireo smiled. "What a silly girl."She knew nothing, so he suddenly felt guilty. She was so pure. He, on the other hand, had been married before, so he actually was very experienced in that aspect. He felt that she truly would be at a disadvantage if they were to get together. However, when he saw that she loved him so much through her eyes, Vireo felt that he certainly had to be even better to her in this life to compensate her.That night was filled with passion and it was perfect. Also, there was no doubt that it was Vireo who was taking the lead. He could not be too agg
She was a great mother. He especially wanted to meet her. He took both Aino and Minerva downstairs, and once the two children got into his car, one after another, they started to ask him questions."Uncle Holden, did you have a good time last night?""Uncle Holden, where is Isadora?""Uncle Holden, how did you and Aunt Isadora spend last night together?""Uncle Holden, when are you and Isadora planning to get married? Do you think I'm too old to be your flower girl? Are there any girls in their twenties who are still flower girls?""Uncle Holden, Uncle Holden, I'm only twelve years old. I can be the flower girl. Just forget about Miss Minerva.""I want to be one! This is my uncle!""He is also my uncle!""He is my uncle! You brat, if you keep fighting me over him, I'll beat you up!" Minerva had never been gracious to Aino.Aino had always been Minerva's little follower. She grinned and said, "Alright, alright. I'll let you have it since you're the beauty who is second to none
Right at the moment when he saw Sean, Vireo, no, his name should have already been Holden then. Right at the moment when he saw Sean, Holden was also stunned. He had an intense and indescribable feeling toward Sean. It was even more intense than the feeling he had for Sebastian. It was as if Sean was truly his father. However, that feeling was immediately suppressed by Holden. He bowed his head a little and smiled at Sean. "You should be Mister Ford, right?""Holden, my son…" Sean said.Holden was speechless."I have already wronged your mother enough. Your mother wanted to see you once the most before she died, but she did not get to do that. Ever since you died, I felt even more so that I've wronged your mother. I have never expected it, my son, I have never expected that you're still alive. You…you're actually still alive." Sean looked at Holden with tears streaming down his cheeks.Holden shook his head. "Mister Ford, I am not your son. I simply looked like your son. However, I
What they yearned for was the same. That was all. However, at the moment, he simply wanted to live his life well under the name of Holden Payne. He wanted to get along with Holden's family. From then on, they would be his family. While thinking of that, Holden could not help but turn his head back to glance at that old man who was eagerly looking at him.The old man smiled at Holden. "My son…""Mister Ford, I have become Mister Sebastian's younger brother. You're Mister Sebastian's father, so if you don't mind, I'll also come to visit you often. Is that alright?" Holden said gently.Since he had no loved ones anyway, it was a great thing to him for every additional loved one he got.Sean shook his head and his tears instantly streamed down his face. "No, no, my son. You must be my son. You simply are my biological son."Holden was speechless. He did not know what he should say. He did not mind being the old man's son, but deep in the old man's heart, the person he wanted was his b
Sean seemed like he had gotten ten years younger. His son was not dead. He actually did not die. Everyone had lied to him. They could not lie to him anymore. His son actually was not dead. The punishment given to him by God was not too bad. That was great. He had lost everything, but he still had two sons. Two of them. Life was still not too miserable for him.Sean was covered in tears as he looked at Holden. He raised his hand and grabbed Holden's strong arms. However, what none of the people present had ever expected was that Holden, who had always been gentle and elegant, suddenly swung his arm and he unexpectedly made the old man fall straight to the floor. Sean was in so much pain that he did not get up for a very long time."Holden!" Sebastian immediately scolded Holden.However, it was as if Holden did not hear him. He simply glared at Sean with his bloodshot eyes, and then step by step, he walked toward Sean who had fallen on the ground. That gaze was as if he wanted to murd
He certainly must be his son!Sebastian felt an indescribable sadness. How many more sins had his father committed? How many sins had his father actually committed? However, what more could he say? When he was facing Holden, who was incomparably furious, Sebastian sympathized with him. However, no matter how much he sympathized with him, Sebastian also could not just let Holden beat his own father to death. He looked at Vireo while feeling unjustified, but the name he called out was Holden."Holden, Holden, calm down. Calm down for a moment, alright? Listen to me. Even if you were to beat him to death right now, it wouldn't help with anything. On the other hand, your future, your lover, and your everything would all be in vain, Holden!" Sebastian said.Holden looked at Sebastian with his bloodshot eyes. "Sebastian! I know that you value relationships and loyalty! The rumors said that you kill without batting an eyelid and that you are coldblooded and vicious, but that's not true at
