2021-12-25 17:33:34"Sorry if before this, I thought you were still bad, Dad," Julian whispered with closed eyes. The furrows of his brows depicted regret perfectly. "I shouldn't have kept the distance from you for the past two years."
Hearing such an honest statement, Herbert's heart suddenly warmed. Patting his son's back, he took a deep breath. "Even if you go to the ends of the world, I still feel close to you, Julian. You are the son I love more than my own son. Don't you remember how unfortunate Max was?"
Remembering his brother, a small laugh suddenly burst into the air. "Yes, you really loved me too much. But, please don't repeat it. Poor Max. He's already suffered enough.”
"Yes, for sure. I've changed, Julian. Now, I am both a fair father and grandfather,” Herbert said before sighing in relief. The burden at the bottom of his heart no longer existed. The old man could already imagine a brighter future with his sons and grandchildren.
“So, cheer up,

"Sorry, Sir. But …, it doesn't sound like a way to pay a debt, but rather a way to increase it,” Mia said, slowly and very carefully."Not really. By doing so, you help us to feel relieved. Max and Gabriella often feel guilty every time they see John and Minnie still think of them as king and queen. Can you put yourself in their shoes? They feel disrespectful towards Julian's future in-laws."Hearing the explanation, Mia's tension faded a little. She had seen Gabriella and Minnie several times fighting over a spatula or a teapot.“Serving the Evans family is not a burden, Sir, but an honor. I'm sure my parents will mind to quit their jobs,” the girl said with a sincere nod."That's your responsibility. Look for ways to change their minds and also yours. Can you stop calling me sir? I am your future father-in-law. Call me as Gabriella calls me."In an instant, the curve of Mia's lips turned flat. Her heart was beating so fas

"Julian? Why did you come here?” Mia asked with round eyes.After closing the door tightly, the man approached his future wife and sat on the edge of the bed."I miss you," he said before landing a kiss on the girl's forehead."Miss me?" Mia said with a faint sigh. "We're still together at dinner, Julian," the girl continued before meeting eyes again.A second later, the man pressed the tip of the lover's nose with a light touch. "Yes, but three hours seems like a long time to me," Julian teased, successfully widening the curve of the girl's lips.“So, how's your bachelor party? Was it fun?" Mia asked, starting the real conversation.“It didn't feel like a party. I just chatted casually with other guys in the backyard. None of them are interesting. So bored, Cayden even fell asleep in Max's arms," Julian explained in a spoiled tone.“You should have invited a dancer to the party. I'm sure, no one will blink f

The piano began to play beautifully, preparing to welcome the presence of the bride. However, the main door still had not opened. The baby in the blue suit and bow tie was still standing blocking the entrance. His lips pursed, while his brows furrowed. With a pitiful look, he looked at his parents who were waiting on the edge of the carpet."I think Cayden is scared," Max whispered to his wife."Yes. It seems, he is depressed because all eyes are on him,” Gabriella muttered before letting out a faint sigh. A second later, she approached his son and knelt down. “What is it, Little Prince?”Still holding a small basket filled with flower petals, the baby entered the mother's arms. Tears began to form droplets at the edges of his eyes."Are you afraid?" Gabriella whispered as she ran her hand through the smooth combed hair."Yayayaya ..." Cayden mumbled sadly while deepening the furrows of his eyebrows.While imitating the loo

While staring at each other, the bride and groom breathed the same happiness. Their eyes welled with tears and filled with compassion, while the corners of their lips twitched, unable to lift anymore. The joy in their hearts had reached the pinnacle.“Julian Evans, would you accept Mia Sanders as a wife?”In an instant, the man's heart churned with various emotions. Even though he had heard that question before, the impression this time was completely different.As the priest read the vow, the struggle to win the girl's heart flashed through Julian's mind. How much he begged, how many times Mia had rejected his love, and how determined he was to keep pursuing ... Julian failed to count.Just as the room fell silent again, the groom came to a conclusion. He had succeeded in getting the girl of his dreams. Along with the happy sigh, Julian answered, "Yes, I do."Mia's blood suddenly rippled to catch the vibration of a voice that was so su

Seeing the sadness on Mr. Hunt's face, Mia's eyes also filled with tears. The woman was able to feel what stirred the grandfather's heart. Realizing it, Julian spontaneously stroked his wife's back. With a little smile, he expressed support for listening to the conversation."I'm really sorry for what my son has done," Mr. Hunt said in a hoarse voice that was no longer cheerful. Regret had narrowed his throat. "James shouldn't have snatched your wife. I am very ashamed of his behavior."Not expecting to receive such a confession, Herbert froze. After one blink, he tried to break the tension through a stiff curve of his lips."You don't have to feel guilty, Mister Hunt. It happened long time ago. I've forgotten the pain and even forgiven them."Unexpectedly, the white-haired man waved his hand and shook his head. “There is no way a human could ever forget such a huge betrayal. I know you must feel bad for me. Because of that, you cover the wound that

“Mia … Mia … Mia ….”People kept chanting the name of the bride. Not wanting to disappoint the guests, Julian pulled his wife to the dance floor."No, Julian. I can't dance," Mia said with doubtful brows."It doesn't matter. I will guide you. Just follow my steps," the man said carefree.Grinning, the woman in white whispered, "But, what about our Little Princess?"“Little Princess would love to dance. Maybe, she will be born as a dancer,” Julian joked while positioning himself in front of his wife."Is it okay?" Mia asked almost inaudibly. Her forehead painted a look of concern.While placing one hand behind the woman's back, Julian brought his lips to her ear. "Take it easy. We're going to move slowly. Little Princess will be safe.”“What if I stumble and fall?” the woman sighed as she was still reluctant to move.“I will catch you before your knees b

Three minutes earlier, Herbert took his daughter-in-law's hand with a bright smile. His eyes were no longer firm, but warm."Thank you, Mia. You've managed to make me feel young again," the old man mumbled, instantly inviting a chuckle from the bride."You're still young, Dad. Look! Your dance moves are even more agile than mine," the woman in white replied, tucking confidence under her eyebrows.“Younger than Mr. Hunt, you mean?” the father-in-law joked, once again provoking joy from the mouth of the daughter-in-law. After one light breath, Herbert shook his head faintly. “You don't need to comfort me, Mia. I realize that I am no longer young. Look at my grandchild … soon to be two.”Before the woman could reply, the old man took a deep breath. "I can't wait to meet your daughter. Lately, I've been wondering what her face looks like. Does she look like you … or Julian?”Curving her lips, the woman tilted

The atmosphere suddenly became silent. Only Cayden's cries shook the air. Even though his eyes were on Gabriella and his ears were pinched by Max's shoulders and palm, the little baby was able to feel a strong sense of dread.Realizing the silence, Sharp Knife closed his coat which had just lost a weapon. With an innocent look, he looked at the faces of people who were wide-eyed at him, including the skinny woman in the black dress who didn't expect her boss to end up horribly."What's wrong? I had already given him a chance to stay alive, but he refused. No Name himself chose to die," Sharp Knife said lightly."You killed him," a policeman sighed as he felt his gun was useless."Because I knew you wouldn't dare to do it," the head of bodyguard stated, pointing at the man lying there with a knife stuck right in the eye. “If it wasn't No Name, then Mia would be in his place. Which one do you prefer?”Realizing the truth of the knife-thro

"Whoa!" Cayden sighed as his father placed him on the back of a pony. With round eyes, he surveyed his height from the ground. Even though it was not much, the toddler in the cowboy hat still showed a happy smile. “How is it, Little Evans? Are you happy?” the woman who held the horse's rein asked. Not daring to move much, Cayden nodded at a limited angle. "Yes, Greta. I am happy. It's thrilling!” he answered enthusiastically. “Thrilling?” Gabriella muttered, furrowing an eyebrow. While continuing to rock her niece, the woman expressed astonishment. “Where did you learn that word, Little Prince?” "Daddy often mentions it," the toddler replied, successfully making his father wince. "Daddy said that the nights spent with Mom were always thrilling." As Gabriella glared at her husband, Greta burst out laughing. "Gosh, Max. I think you should be more careful now. Your genius son can absorb all the words you speak.” "Right. I'll be more caref

"If you kept avoiding me, I would really quit the company," Julian said, successfully freezing Mr. Hunt's steps. The old man was then blinking, digesting the words he thought he heard wrong. “Actually, my position as a CEO is being threatened for some reasons. I tried to keep it a secret from all of you. I didn't even let Mia know. But as it turned out, it wasn't easy at all. My mind became adrift. And because the burden was too heavy, my emotions finally exploded. I'm so sorry it had to happen in front of you." Hearing the tone that seemed honest, Mr. Hunt slowly turned his focus. Two seconds later, he saw the tears slide from the grandson's eyes. "I've tried to be strong and tough, Grandpa. I thought I could solve all problems. But it turns out, I haven’t found any solution yet. That's why I was angry when I failed to find Grace and you at the cemetery. It got me think that I am a useless man," Julian explained with the gloomy eyes landed on the grass.

“Tsk, why does Grandpa run away like this? It just makes me feel even guiltier,” Julian grumbled between gasping breaths. Holding on to Mr. Hunt's message, he walked down the tree-lined path. “What should I do if Grandpa isn't there? Where should I look for him?” the man thought as he couldn't erase the wrinkles from his face. The burden in his heart was too heavy to ignore. After a few moments of struggling with the noise in his brain, Julian finally shook his head and blinked strongly. "No, no. Grandpa must be there. I'll take him home and things will automatically return to the way they were before," the man nodded, fostering hope. Ignoring the anxiety that kept swirling in his mind, he went faster. Unfortunately, as soon as Julian passed the cemetery gates, his steps were frozen. His jaw was dropping while his eyelids were lifted to the maximum. What he had hoped for quickly turned into disappointment. "No way! This is impossible!” he curs

"Dad," Cayden called quietly. A second later, the toddler handed Max a piece of bread that had been cleaned of jam. "I'm already full," he continued with a meaningful smile.Understanding the son's intentions, Max spontaneously raised an eyebrow. "Do you want me to finish your bread again?"While showing two rows of tiny teeth, Cayden nodded. After a faint exhalation, the father began to vibrate the air with laughter."Gaby, look at what Little Prince did! I can get fat if he keeps handing me food,” the man said while showing the second bread he received from his son.“Just eat it, Max. You need more energy to help the Little Prince take care of Hasty,” the woman who was cleaning the dishes with a sponge replied.Hearing his mother's response, Cayden's eyes immediately widened. His energy had just risen to the peak. “I've finished breakfast, Mom. Can I go to the stable now?”"Yes, but you have to wash your face

Suddenly, Julian dropped his face into his hands. After exhaling heavily, he lifted his head again and put on an indescribable expression."I didn't mean to scare anyone, Mia. I just don't want Grandpa’s mistake to happen again," the man said with frown on his face."Yes, I know," Mia replied with the same thin voice. “But you can do it without hurting Grandpa's feelings, Julian. This matter can be discussed amicably.”While gritting his teeth, Julian shook his head. Confusion had returned to cover his eyes. “What should I do now? I already made Grandpa sad.""Apologize?" Mia answered with a grimace."Is that enough?" the man asked doubtfully. He began to realize that his anger had indeed crossed the line.Pondering, the woman nodded. “As long as it's sincere, Grandpa will definitely forgive you. And I think, you should also explain to Cayden that what you did was wrong. Don't let your nephew imitate something t

“Greta, have you prepared delicious toast for us?” Cayden asked as the hostess opened the door wider to welcome him. Seeing her father was still able to walk, the woman with high arch of the brows spontaneously sighed in relief. After shaking her head for a moment, she turned her gaze to the toddler who was still holding Mr. Hunt's hand and waiting for her response. "Of course I have. There is also strawberry jam for you. Are you hungry?” Greta asked while faking a smile. “Not me, but Grandpa. I heard the sound of his breathing all the way. Grandpa is very tired! He should eat a lot of bread," Cayden said with his trademark expression—round eyes and pursed lips. While stroking her son's head, Gabriella bent her knees. After leveling their eyes, the woman tilted her head. "You know where Greta put the plate of bread, don't you?" No more than two seconds, the toddler nodded. "Yes. On the dining table," he answered with a big smile. "That

"Sorry, Julian. I took Grace to see your grandmother for a while. Now, I intend to take her home. We're not wandering around or straying like you said," Mister Hunt explained with an indescribable expression. Even so, his hoarse voice was able to touch the hearts of the listeners, apart from his grandson. "But the way home is over there, Grandpa!" Julian snapped, still with eyebrows raised to the max. The young man didn't feel sorry at all for the hunched back that was getting weighed down by guilt. "I really can’t understand what’s on your mind. Don't you realize that your recklessness can lead to trouble? Didn't we agree to go together? Why did you secretly take Grace away?” he continued, thickening the wrinkles on his grandfather's forehead. Sensing her father's anger, Little Princess began to furrow her brows. The baby had never heard such a loud voice. When her eyes fell on Mr. Hunt's gloomy face, she spontaneously pouted. A second later, her heavy cry b

Arriving at the cemetery, Julian was taken aback. What he saw was completely beyond expectation. There were no old man and baby among the tombstones. The grandfather and Grace left absolutely no trace. "This is impossible," Julian muttered as he quickened his pace. Neglecting his initial attempt to remain calm, the man sped toward the direction Greta had given. After searching for a while, he finally found the grandmother's name on one of the stones. “Right, this is the place. They should be here," Julian sighed, sounding desperate. With deep furrows, he circled around, trying to find any trace of either his daughter or Grandpa Hunt. Unfortunately, as far as the eye could see, the two remained off the radar. Confusion instantly grew bigger in Julian’s mind. "Tsk, how could it be like this?" he grumbled while clutching his head. Knowing that irritation, Mia gently touched her husband's arm. She knew that the man had failed to control hi
CEO's Love in Trap Extra Chapter| 12. Grandpa and Grace
Carefully, Mr. Hunt wiped his great-granddaughter's cheek. Grace's red eyes no longer shed sadness. However, the old man still felt guilty for making the baby cry. "I'm sorry, Grace. I should have walked more calmly so you wouldn't wake up," he whispered in between his ragged breaths. After her face had been dry, Grace rested her head on Mister Hunt's shoulder. Blinking slowly, she pursed her lips. The furrow of her tiny brows indicated that she still wanted to roll up in the blanket on the crib. The baby wondered why she was with her great-grandfather, sitting on a long bench at the edge of a path. “When I was young, I only need fifteen minutes to arrive at your great-grandmother's grave. But now, why does it feel so long and tiring?” Mr. Hunt grumbled as he wiped his forehead with one hand. After one quick breath, the old man stood up again and held Grace in his languid arms. Although the baby was a bit heavy, his lips still curled up warmly.
