Chapter 425: Chapter 419: Birthday Celebration

Translator: 549690339

When Amelia Lee was young, in those years, a single woman raising a child was no easy feat. Not to mention the societal gossip alone was enough to make a weak woman crumble, yet Amelia Lee managed to raise Kay Lee, despite difficulties. Although there was the help from the old man, he only arrived when Kay was more than seven years old.

Before that, Amelia single-handedly raised Kay. If another woman was in her shoes, she might have been reduced to being Cypress Davis’ mistress, perhaps. After all, Cypress Davis was close to ten years older than Amelia.

“I understand.” Finn Lewis nodded seriously, he had to admit, Amelia Lee was a truly good woman. He wondered if Cypress Davis was blind, how could he abandon such a woman.

“The old man’s birthday party is tonight. Stay here for the night and leave with Kay tomorrow. Kay is quite busy with her work now, the old man will understand.” Amelia Lee said with a smile.

“Mom, why don’t you come to Celeston with me?” Kay Lee couldn’t help but propose.

“If I go, who will take care of your grandfather?” Amelia Lee shook her head.

“Mom, it’s true that grandpa saved us, but isn’t it the children’s duty to take care of him? Let’s not talk about anything else, how many of them bother to visit grandpa for his birthday or during the New Year? Some of them don’t even return once a year.” Kay Lee paused before continuing. ƒгeewёbnovel.com

Finn Lewis was stunned, only then did he understand that Amelia Lee was the one who had been taking care of the old man all along. No wonder Amelia Lee wasn’t always at Kay Lee’s side. Although Kay Lee didn’t mention it, Finn Lewis could imagine that Amelia Lee treated the old man as her own father. However, in the eyes of the Davis family, Amelia Lee might just appear as a sycophant. They might have thought that Amelia Lee stayed by the old man’s side to utilize his power and connections, but they never considered that even if Amelia Lee wasn’t with the old man,

given his character and the guilt he felt for things Cypress Davis did, he wouldn’t treat Amelia Lee and her family differently. She didn’t need to stick to the old man like she did. But Amelia Lee chose to stay, which made it clear what kind of person she was. It was no wonder that she raised such an excellent daughter as Kay Lee. Staying here, Amelia bore a lot of criticism, Finn could only imagine how much. But she chose to remain silent and simply do what she needed to do.

How many people could do that? Probably, the majority of them wouldn’t be able to.

“Enough, don’t say silly things. I’m still young, I have years to accompany you, just don’t abandon me later. Your grandpa is old, a housemaid alone isn’t enough to take care of him. I can’t stay here for many more years either.” Amelia Lee smiled kindly, stroking Kay Lee’s hair as she spoke tenderly.

“Auntie, don’t worry. With me around, nobody can bully Kay.” Finn Lewis quickly assured, thumping his chest as he spoke.

“Alright, Auntie trusts you.” Amelia Lee nodded, smiling. Regarding Finn Lewis, Amelia Lee had asked Kay questions, even ones of a very private nature. She came to know that Finn Lewis had had several opportunities to take advantage of her daughter, but he had never done so. Thus, she knew that Finn Lewis genuinely cared for her daughter and was someone worthy of trust.

The old man’s birthday banquet was in the evening. Even though, according to Kay Lee, no outsiders were invited, it didn’t mean no outsiders would come. Given the position of the old man and Cypress Davis, there would undoubtedly be people who came to flatter them, people who had a very wide network of information. If only these types of people were attending, it would not be a problem. These visitors knew their limits; they’d exchange pleasantries, offer their congratulations, and quickly leave.

Some guests who arrived, even the old man himself had to greet. Such as the old man’s war buddies. These people were purely associated because of their friendship with the old man. By four or five in the afternoon, the courtyard was full of all kinds of cars. None of them were low-grade; at the very least, each cost around three hundred thousand dollars. The people who drove these cars could afford even better ones, but their status did not permit them to do so.

As the old man’s granddaughter, Kay Lee was naturally one of the hosts. When important guests arrived, she had to go out to welcome them. As Kay Lee’s companion, Finn naturally had to join in the greeting. Around five in the afternoon, when seven or eight four-wheel-drive vehicles came from afar, Finn Lewis perked up, understanding that significant figures were arriving.

The cars weren’t anything special, but the people who came certainly were. The leading vehicles were military off-road vehicles.

These were probably the old man’s war buddies given the four military off-road vehicles that arrived. Otherwise, the other members of the Davis family didn’t have any relationship with the military.

Apparently, the old man also got the news. He came out of the house himself. He was wearing an early form of military uniform today. However, there were no rank insignia or other decorations, just a simple military uniform, along with an early model military hat.

The old man was waiting at the gate, so naturally, others also waited at the gate with him. To the old man, all of these war buddies were significant figures. But these figures remembered his birthday, which was pure comradery. Just for the sake of this relationship, he had to come out and greet them.

The convoy soon stopped at the gate of the old man’s house. The door of the passenger seat of the leading vehicle opened, and a soldier jumped right out. Seeing the soldier that jumped out, Finn Lewis was slightly taken aback, he was probably not one of the old man’s war buddies.

He was a young major. Undeniably young, considering the age. Although Flame Nation was implementing a policy of youthifying its officials, including the military, as many of the older generation of soldiers couldn’t keep up with the younger generations, but this major was still relatively young.

This difference distinguished military personnel from ordinary people. Of course, if he were an escort, he would typically sit in the back. The young major noticed the old man waiting at the gate. He got off the car and hurried towards the gate. The younger man behind him followed closely. Upon reaching the gate, the major saluted the old man before smiling and saying, “Uncle Davis, happy birthday! I’m here on behalf of my father. He’s been under the weather lately and couldn’t make it over.”

“Is Mr. Butler alright?” The old man immediately asked with a face full of worry.
