Zayne sat below the stone block under the tree and began to complain incessantly, “Granny Winter is indeed superb in the art of healing. But why is she particularly attentive to the Ares family men alone? Is it because all the Areses are so handsome?”Then, Zayne patted his mouth. “Pah! I’d better shut my mouth before Sir Ares comes over to sort me out.”Baby Robbie abruptly stood up with a look of astonishment in his eyes. “What did you just say, Uncle?”Zayne looked around, making sure that Sir Ares and Jenson were not by his side before he had the guts to repeat his words, “I said, Granny Winter’s art of healing is exquisite. But why is she lingering around you Ares men?”Baby Robbie suddenly fell from the tree. Before he reached the ground, Baby Robbie did a flip and stood back up.Zayne looked at him and asked, “Why are you so startled?”Huge suspicion was overflowing from Baby Robbie’s gaze.He had been so careless before and did not pay attention to Granny Winter’s arriva
Since then, Baby Robbie had been tirelessly trying to help Baby Zetty. From collecting medicinal materials to sorting and drying them, all the way to fetching Baby Zetty something to drink.Baby Zetty could feel that Baby Robbie’s attitude toward her had taken a complete turn. For a moment there, she even suspected that Baby Robbie had found out about her identity. She immediately felt more pressured.However, when she was about to make insinuations to test Baby Robbie, he wittily dispelled her worries.“You saved my daddy, so from now on, you’re considered the Ares family’s savior. Don’t worry about it. Because of your great kindness, my sisters and I will show you more respect in the future.”Baby Zetty heaved a sigh of relief.“I’m delighted that you think of it that way,” said Baby Zetty.Baby Robbie looked at Baby Zetty’s aged appearance and felt extremely upset about it. Baby Zetty, Jens, and he were triplets, so the relationship between the three was much closer. His siste
Roxie fixed her deep and unfathomable eyes on Baby Robbie, interrogating him somewhat angrily, “Why on earth do you want that harmful stuff?”Baby Robbie embarrassedly rubbed the tip of his nose. From Roxie’s gaze, she seemed to think that he was going to commit a crime. Baby Robbie was unwilling to expose Baby Zetty’s identity and vaguely said, “Come on. I just need it for something.”Roxie had always kept the military intelligence division’s matters hush. If Baby Robbie could not tell her the reason, Roxie would naturally refuse to hand the formula to him.“I’ll not hand such a thing to you. Give up, Robbie. We’ve finally bid our farewells to the military intelligence division. How could you still think about those things from the past? It’s not like you don’t know how atrocious those things are.”Baby Robbie felt utterly helpless and ultimately took another approach. He started muttering in a panic, “Sis Roxie, I’ll tell you the truth. I’ve fallen in love with a girl, but I do
“Who got on your nerve, Miss Roxie?” Baby Zetty could not help but ask.Roxie’s hand movements paused slightly, and she smiled bitterly at her while saying, “No one. I just feel a little stifled, that’s all.”Baby Zetty snatched the medicinal pestle and said, “If you have anything to say, don’t hold back. Your body will suffer from it.”After all, she was the most typical example of this.Roxie grabbed the medicinal pestle back but said nothing in response.After crushing the medicinal materials into a powder, she quickly made them into pills. Baby Zetty secretly watched as the materials were made into three pills and kept that in mind.After Roxie made the pills, she went looking for Baby Robbie and handed two of them to him, saying, “These are the pills you wanted. I just made them.”Baby Robbie was startled. “You’re quick!”Roxie’s eyes were currently filled with bitterness, though she was still smiling.He had no idea how much she cared about him.A single command from hi
Baby Robbie said, “Forget it. I’ll not make it hard for you if you’re reluctant to tell me. I wish you the sweetest dream tonight, Granny.”Baby Robbie left with a smile after uttering these words.Baby Zetty was a little confused. Baby Robbie had spared no effort to prepare those pills. Was it not to interrogate her as to why Daddy was kind to her? Why did he give up so easily?Baby Zetty pondered over it and could not seem to figure out the answer. Later, she thought that perhaps it was due to Baby Robbie’s kind nature that he did not want to force her to do things against her will.Hence, she proceeded to put her guard down.After Finn had his dinner in the evening, he remembered Baby Robbie’s instructions and hurried over to look for Baby Zetty.It was just that there was a slight moment of hesitation before Finn entered. Ultimately, his kindness prevailed. He thought that there was no need to be afraid of gossip as he would not be doing anything wrong. Hence, he knocked on t
Baby Zetty’s eyes were red, and helpless tears were escaping from them. “So you do care about my age and how ugly I am.”Finn looked at her in astonishment and felt that Granny Winter was simply unreasonable. He was getting slightly angry and said, “Granny, perhaps my actions have caused you to misunderstand. I’d like to sincerely say sorry to you because of it. I thought that given our age gap, you could act within the boundaries even if I were to treat you well. I was merely doing everything as an act of friendship.”Baby Zetty started weeping bitterly. She knew very well that she should not be saying these disgraceful words, but it was out of her control. She wanted to feel his love for her again before leaving this world.She knew that this was unfair to Finn. However, she was selfish and wanted him to accompany her, despite her being in the shell of an old grandmother, in the name of love.After Finn said these words, he hastily left.Baby Zetty was unwilling to accept this.
The moment Finn realized the answers to these questions, he wanted to give himself a massive slap in the face. How could he have been so stupid? How could he have hurt Baby Zetty again?He abruptly turned around and dashed toward Baby Zetty once more.At this moment, Baby Zetty was sitting on the ground dejectedly. Her gray hair appeared as white as snow now, and she had aged rapidly in a split second.Baby Zetty sat there while tears quietly streamed down her face.She was utterly helpless and had given up all hope.Seeing Baby Zetty rapidly aging before his eyes, Finn felt a strong sense of self-abasing in his heart. He staggered toward her and slowly squatted down.Then, he tenderly hugged Baby Zetty into his arms.Baby Zetty looked up, and when she saw Finn, she pushed him away in resistance. However, Finn was holding onto her too tightly, so tightly that she simply could not escape his embrace.Baby Zetty could only weep out sorrowfully.Finn murmured, “I missed an oppo
Jenson suddenly walked over and glared at Baby Robbie coldly. He sarcastically reprimanded him, “What a fine job you did.”Baby Robbie felt wronged by this and said, “I was merely hoping that my sister and Brother Finn could end up together. Since they like each other, they’ll come to regret it for the rest of their lives if they miss the opportunity to confess their feelings for each other.”Jenson wanted to continue criticizing Baby Robbie, but Finn stopped him all of a sudden and said, “Stop blaming Robbie, Jens. He’s not wrong. I’m very grateful to him that he gave me the chance to find out that Winter was Zetty all along. I know that Baby Zetty can’t accept me right now, but it doesn’t matter. I’ll find a way for her to accept me again.”After Finn said this, he bid farewell to Jenson and Baby Robbie, saying, “I’ll go out and look for Baby Zetty. I’ll bring her back safe and sound.”Jens and Baby Robbie nodded. “Alright.”Finn thought that since Baby Zetty was old and had lim
