Chapter 69
Mr. Philip returned to the May Residence.
He bumped into Lara the minute he walked in. She knew Grandpa Dave had called Mr. Philip over, so
she said in a strange tone, “You’re back, Mr. Philip. Why did Grandpa Dave call you over? Isn’t he living
together with his baby granddaughter? They live in Terahis Grove! Why are you still needed?”
When she mentioned Terahis Grove, she was gritting her teeth. After all, it was a neighborhood she
really wanted to live in, but she did not even have the chance to see it.
“Ma’am, Grandpa Dave said he wanted to recognize Molly as a member of the May family. He wants to
put her name into the family tree,” Mr. Philip responded truthfully.
‘What?!
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtLara was shocked! “Is he insane?!” She screeched.
Mr. Philips frowned as he was upset by her words.
“Molly was too humiliating back then. Our name is tarnished because of her! Her three kids too. They are
her love child with an unknown man! That’s even more embarrassing! Grandpa Dave is too blinded!”
Walter said in a deep voice.
“Go tell Grandpa Dave that we object to this!” Lara left Mr. Philip this line before she chased him back to
Molly’s place.
When Mr. Philip went back to pass their message to Grandpa Dave, Grandpa Dave was a little
disappointed. ‘This pair of parents are kicking such a good daughter out of the family. Even if I planned
so thoroughly, it’s pointless. They’ll regret this in the future, for sure!’
Molly saw Grandpa Dave’s intention, but she was not surprised at this. She consoled him,” Grandpa, I
know why you’re doing this. You don’t have to force this. I’ve accepted this for a long time. It’s okay.”
Grandpa Dave showed a heartbroken expression as Molly was an extremely sensible granddaughter.
“You’ve worked hard these years. It isn’t your fault, but you had to carry the responsibility. You’ve never
been loved by a parent, and you’ve been treated badly in the countryside. You’ve suffered too much
while you raised your kids. I just want to see you prosper. I want you to see you having everything, get
engaged and married to a good man, and have a home for yoursell.”
He knew about his condition. He probably had ten over more years to live when Molly’s children got older
and started their own families, Molly would not have anyone around her. Then, he would not be able to
rest in peace.
Molly said, “You don’t have to rush things, grandpa. Take it slow. Good things come to those who wait.”
At the same time, Sean and Tony came over and heard Grandpa Dave talking about the engagement.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmTony asked, “Engagement? Are you getting engaged , Dr. May? Why so sudden? Who is that

man? I’ve never heard you talking about this.” Molly glared at him and said, “I’m not. Stop your
nonsense.” Tony looked confused as he scratched the back of his head. The triplets immediately chimed
in, “No, great-grandpa is just saying that he wants mommy to get engaged.” Alex immediately said,
“Whoever mommy picks has to go through us. He’d better be stable! After all, he’ll be our daddy. Not
anyone can easily be our daddy.” “That’s right! He must have a successful career,” Ben followed along.
Claudia said in a cute tone, “He has to be as handsome as Uncle Sean too.”
Sean found it hilarious.
Grandpa Dave chuckled as well. “Your standards are too high. Other than Mr. Anderson, I don’t think
anyone could meet your requirements.”
