The CEO's Wife Is A Demon God's Daughter-Chapter 872 The Davis Patriarch’s Secret
~ At Davis Family Mansion ~
Tristan and Zhen-Zhen were now busy in the preparation of their wedding. Their parents were helping them so Grandpa Lu and Zu Wan were the ones taking care of the twins.
Grandpa Lu was playing with Little Tian while Zu Wan was entertaining Little Cassie together with the other fire dragons– FaMo and Miho.
Grandpa Lu brought Little Tian to Grandma Cassandra's Garden. He was carrying the little boy in his arms. Little Tian grew fast. He looked like a one year old boy now. He became big and tall as compared to a normal human child.
"My great grandson, do you like this garden? The flowers here are the favorite of your great grandma, most especially the tulips. Once you become an adult and fall for someone, you can get flowers here and give them to your woman."
Little Tian was not talking nor making a sound but his eyes were fixed on Grandpa Lu's face. He was listening attentively to grandpa.
He was also moving his gaze to the flowers whenever Grandpa Lu would point his fingers at those flowers. Little Tian seemed like engraving the image and the name of the flowers in his mind.
After roaming around the garden, they sat down on the bench located in the center of the garden. Grandpa Lu continued talking to Little Tian.
"I would really like to watch you grow and get married someday… you and Little Cassie." Grandpa Lu had a glum look in his eyes when he thought about something.
"I don't think I can still see you and Little Cassie marry someone. I might be dead by that time."
Little Tian also noticed the sadness plastered on Grandpa Lu's face. He reached out his hands to touch Grandpa Lu's face. That simple gesture from Little Tian brought a faint smile to Grandpa Lu's lips.
"Thank you for comforting me, Christian. I am already happy that I can take care of you like this. My remaining days here on earth will be worth it even though I can't live that long just to see you and Little Cassie creating your own family. I know both of you will do a good job. Live happily and be successful just like your mother and father."
Grandpa Lu couldn't stop himself from being sentimental. But at the same time, he felt so blissful, taking care of Little Cassie and Little Tian.
The corners of Little Tian's lips tugged upward forming a cute and charming smile. That smile was enough to comfort Grandpa Lu and brighten up his mood.
If Little Tian could speak, he would certainly talk to his great grandpa and console him. But for now, all he could give him was a smile and little gestures.
He could feel that Grandpa Lu was worried about the future. He was troubled by something but he chose not to share it with Tristan and others.
The Davis Family became complete and happy so he thought he couldn't ask for more. His grandsons, Tristan and Andrew, already reconciled. The competition between the Davis Family and Sy Family ended as they became one family through Andrew and Alveena.
Tristan and Zhen-Zhen gave him two cute great grandchildren. And they were expecting another baby to be born– Andrew's and Alveena's child.
However, as time went by, Grandpa Lu wanted to have more… he desired something more. And that was… to live longer and spend more time with his family.
Little Tian and Little Cassie gave him another hope… another reason to wake up every day. He didn't want this moment to end. 𝐟re𝐞w𝐞𝒃𝓃𝒐𝐯𝚎𝒍.c૦𝚖
But he felt like his wish would not be fulfilled this time around…
Grandpa Lu was still sitting on the bench together with Little Tian when he suddenly felt pain in his chest. His free hand clutched his chest.
The discomfort could be felt on the left side of his chest. There was a squeezing pressure inside his heart, making him in pain and lightheaded.
Despite his pain, Grandpa Lu endured it for the sake of Little Tian. Fortunately, he brought his medicine with him as he already expected to be ill. This was something he wanted to hide from the Davis Family.
Not wasting any more time, he took one pill. A few seconds later, the pain subsided a little bit. His rag breathing came back to normal. He almost thought he would collapse in front of his great grandson.
Grandpa Lu wouldn't forgive himself if Little Tian would be hurt because of him. He almost dropped the child when he felt the throbbing pain in his heart a while ago.
"My great grandson… I'm sorry. But I think we should go back inside the house. There was no one here aside from us. If something bad happens to me, you might also be hurt."
After gathering his energy up, Grandpa Lu wiped away his cold sweat. He tried to look fine even though he felt so weak.
'I wonder how long I can hide this from them. I don't want to worry the family. Tristan and Zhen are preparing for their wedding. Telling them about my health condition will ruin the happy moments.' Grandpa Lu thought to himself.
Grandpa Lu had decided to tell the Davis Family after the wedding of his grandson. He hoped nothing bad would happen to him before that day comes.
Grandpa Lu was hellbent to hide his illness from the family. But unknown to Grandpa Lu, someone already knew about it– Little Tian.
The Little Boy looked sad while staring at his great grandpa. However the boy didn't cry instead, he summoned his fire dragon to transfer some energy to his weak old man.
That was also the reason why Grandpa Lu felt better right away. It's not only because of his medicine but because of the energy that was transferred to him by Little Tian's blue fire dragon.
Though Little Tian couldn't talk, he could communicate with his fire dragon. The blue fire dragon could understand what Little Tian wanted to do so he obeyed his master's command and request to support and strengthen Grandpa Lu.
In the little boy's mind, he swore to protect his great grandpa since he could feel the old man's love for him and his family.
