Chapter 606

The news was a cause for celebration, yet the air hung heavy with silence

Evadne paused, her voice even, “Aaron told me that Elspeth was a mess before the execution. She

was so scared she lost control of the bladder, couldn’t even walk. They had to drag her to the execution

chamber. It was quite the spectacle”

Thaddeus‘ lips barely moved, his voice a hoarse whisper, “Was it lethal injection or a firing squad?”

“Injection”

Evadne locked eyes with the man’s deep gaze, her lips curling slightly. “A quick bullet would have been

too kind. She writhed in agony for ten minutes after the poison hit her system, before her heart finally

stopped. Tied to a chair, with limbs stiff and face. distorted, those brief ten minutes were far from

enough to atone for her sins, but at least she got what she deserved.

Thaddeus eyelids drooped slowly, a tumult of emotions rising and falling in his chest.

Elspeth was gone. He should have been overjoyed, but the delayed gratification left him less thrilled

than he had anticipated.

“After her death, the court notified Frederic to claim the body for cremation Technically, they were still

married, so he was her next of kin. But he refused to show up, so they had no choice but to send

Elspeth’s body to the crematorium”

Evadne’s lips twisted into a sardonic smile, “You’d think after all they’d been through, and after she

bore heirs for the Abernathy family, Frederic could at least see her off one last time. It’s a pity, really”

“Hmph! If he had gone to pick up that witch’s body, he might as well quit being CEO and start

managing a landfill

Hamilton’s eyes sparkled as he slapped his thigh, “Anyway, my grandson has avenged a deep–seated

vendetta, and that’s cause for a grand celebration Murray, tell the chef to prepare some extra special

dishes tonight, and open a fine bottle of wine to celebrate properly

Murray was in high spirits also, “Right away, sir. I’ll see to it immediately

“And while you’re at it, send someone to buy some fireworks to set off at the gate. We need to clear the

bad air!”

Thaddeus couldn’t help but smile, “Grandpa Hamilton, that’s not necessary. Besides, this place is so

secluded, where would you even find fireworks around here? Don’t trouble Murray with such a task.”

Murray, there’s a fireworks shop about three miles from Grandpa’s mansion. Lused to buy them there

for him. You can send someone; they should still be open Evadne offered with a sweet grin.

Thaddeus looked at Evadne, surprised and secretly impressed.

Used to? When had she been doing all this without him noticing?

Murray gave Evadne a thumbs–up. “When it comes to knowing Mr. Hamilton Abernathy, no one

compares to Ms. Ashbourne You’re not just his granddaughter–in–law, you’re like his own flesh and

blood.”

Flattered by the compliment, even the usually confident Evadne intertwined her fingers, blushing.

“Indeed, my llana has always been so devoted to me. No one in the Abernathy family comes close to

her. Hamilton mused, his gaze falling on Thaddeus bewildered face with a hint of reproach, “You

probably don’t even know all my habits or what I like, but Ilana knows them by heart. During your three

“Grandpa Hamilton.” Thaddeus voice caught, his throat tight with emotion

“Grandpa Hamilton, Thaddeus has always been good to me, exceptionally so

Evadne quickly soothed Hamilton, her playful smile returning, “Besides, spending time with you has

always been my pleasure. Ive learned so much from you, and every visit is like stealing a bit of your

wisdom. Bet you didn’t see that coming, huh?”

Before her voice trailed off, a tall shadow loomed over her. Suddenly, a firm hand cradled her lower

warm chest

Evadne melted into his embrace, her breath hitching as Thaddeus‘ lips claimed hers in a fervent kiss,

his eyes filled with longing and tenderness. He didn’t care that Grandpa was watching, he was openly

passionate and possessive.

Hamilton and Murray were beside themselves with excitement, their hearts racing with joy!

Thaddeus had always been reserved, less of worldly wisdom, difficult to get along. Hamilton had half a

mind to take him to a psychiatrist when he was younger but feared it would damage his pride.

Thaddeus was consumed with a sense of shame. How could it not relate to him?

He was Hamilton’s own grandson, yet for the past twenty years, he had only inherited Frederic’s cold

indifference. He thought he had been getting better, but now it seemed his own depth of feeling couldn’t

compare to a fraction of his grandfather’s love for his grandmother

“From now on, it won’t happen again,” Thaddeus murmured with a trembling tone after a long silence:

Evadne’s delicate fingers pressed against his lips, her smile gentle, “Yes, of course. It won’t happen

again”

The young couple had a delightful dinner with Hamilton, and Murray had arranged for the fireworks to

be delivered.

Hamilton sat in his wheelchair, a contented smile on his face as he watched his grandson and Evadne

ignite the brilliant fireworks nearby. They twirled sparklers in their hands, laughing joyously like children

on Christmas.

“Look at Thaddeus smile, how bright and cheerful” Murray draped a blanket over Hamilton’s legs, “I still

remember when he first came to live with you. His height barely arrived to that to your waist. He was

wearing ill–fitting clothes, so thin and small. Quite the pitiful sight

Hamilton nodded in agreement. Time flies. He’s now a man of stature, standing on his own.”

“Before he met Ms Ashbourne, I don’t recall him ever smiling like that. He was burdened with heavy

responsibilities and hidden resentments, never truly happy. But thankfully, Ms. Ashbourne redeemed

him, and all is well now,” Murray reflected

“Mana is not just a gift from heaven to me but to my grandson as well” Hamilton’s eyes warmed

Suddenly, Hamilton’s phone in his coat pocket vibrated, snapping him back to reality. He took it out,

and his pupils contracted at the sight

Puzzled, Murray glanced at the screen, his expression turning to shock, “is that Mr. Chad Abernathy?

“Murray, take me inside.”

Once back in the living room, Hamilton took a deep breath and answered the video call.

On the screen appeared Chad his face pale and delicate, offering Hamilton a warm smile despite his

evident frailty

“Grandpa Hamilton, long time no see, How have you been?”

Hamilton’s expression stiffened slightly. Tm well, Chad, how are you recuperating over there? You look

“Grandpa Hamilton, please don’t worry My health is improving day by day. As your grandson, I’ve been

away for so many years, unable to fulfill my duties before you and dad. I am ashamed. I will recover

and hope to return to your side and dads as soon as possible. Chad’s coughing fit brought a mist to his

soft eyes.

Hamilton responded quickly. “See, you’re still quite ill. Don’t push yourself, and focus on getting better

abroad. Your dad and I understand, we won’t blame you”

As they spoke, the sounds of laughter and conversation from Thaddeus and Evadne drifted in, and it

seemed the couple was heading their way.

Hamilton’s heart clenched. “Chad, I have something to attend to. We’ll talk in a few days
