Chapter 308

“Grandpa, how are you feeling these days? Let me know if something doesn’t feel right.”

Jasper knelt on one knee by Newton’s wheelchair and glanced up at his grandfather. His

eyes were clear, bright, and reminiscent of his teenage years.

He further suggested, “Why don’t you move back to Seaview Manor? That way, Mrs. Rosie

and I can better look after you.”

“Why would I? Your dad and his wretched wife will only shave years off my life!”

The thought of Sophia gave Newton a headache. He let out an exasperated sigh. “I have

sworn not to move back until Javier divorces that woman. I’m fine here. The secret to

longevity is to keep them out of sight anyway!”

Jasper flashed a bitter smile. He felt helpless in front of his stubborn grandfather.

“This villa was home to Mr. Newton and Madam Doris. He’s unwilling to leave because it

feels and reminds him of Madam Doris,” the thoughtful Ben explained with a smile.

“Ben, I am increasingly senile, I think. Sometimes, I am delusional.”

Newton turned around and stared at the backyard in a daze. “I once saw Doris singing and

tending to the

flowers in the backyard. She even smiled at me when I walked up to her.”

“No, Mr. Newton, you’re not senile. Madam Doris must have sensed your deep longing for

her. That’s why

she’s reluctant to leave and chooses to stay by your side,” Ben comforted the old man.

Jasper felt a lump in his throat and hung his head with guilt. Newton and Doris had a

loving marriage,

which gave him hope for a loyal relationship. Hence, he had an obsession with his

relationship with Liana.

There were warning signs early in their relationship. They were incompatible and did not

have much in

common to talk about. Most of the time, he was the one to compromise.

He had been led astray by his desperation to be loved and his fear of losing everything he

worked for. In the end, not only did he lose everything, but he also hurt another woman

who truly loved him.

“How foolish I’ve been.”

“Grandpa, I’m sorry.” His lashes fluttered as he spoke in a shaking voice.

Newton felt sympathy for his prideful grandson, now riddled with shame and guilt. He

sighed and patted Jasper on the shoulder. “Jasper, you were just like me when I was

younger. I was fussy and stubborn.

“There’s only one difference between us-I was luckier than you in that I fell in love with the

right woman. Anyway, I’m glad you have changed your ways.”

“Grandpa, I …”

“I was at fault, too. I shouldn’t have forced you to marry Alice. Nothing good comes from

force. From now on, you and Alice should pursue whomever you love.

“I must have put Alice in a tough place, forcing her to be with a man who doesn’t love her

back.”

Newton put on a straight face and instructed Ben, “Ben, show me a list of bachelors who

are a good match for Alice. Since I have too much time on my hands, I’ll bring her on blind

dates when she’s free.

“I do not want to see her love life on pause after the divorce. That would trouble me to no

end.”

“Uh? Oh… Sure, Mr. Newton,” Ben responded, seemingly amused and caught by surprise.

Newton’s remark reminded Jasper of the scene where Jameson presented the roses to

Alyssa under the

sunset. He clenched his fists, slowly drowning in bitterness and remorse.

Jasper left Crescent Bay after a good chat with Newton.

“Sir, I know you’re eager to see Mr. Jasper back with Ms. Taylor. So, why introduce

potential suitors for

Ms. Taylor?” Ben sounded baffled.

“I know my grandson like the back of my hand. He would not listen to me nagging at him

to get back with

Alice.”

Newton narrowed his eyes, looking sly and impish. “I’ll play on his possessiveness and

make him feel

threatened. Only then will he realize who he truly loves.”
