Ethan’s Vengeance of Love

Chapter 154

“Sure.” Although Apollo was not very used to being so friendly with strangers, he obediently walked over since they were his relatives.

“How well-behaved! Oh! How are you so well-behaved? Oh, my God… My heart is about to melt into a puddle. This is wonderful! I’m so happy!” Janice gently pulled Apollo into her arms. She was so emotional that her words were slightly jumbled together.

Keith felt a flicker of emotion flashing through his eyes for a moment after observing his grandfather’s and mother’s reactions. He was the only one who knew that Apollo was not his biological son. Nevertheless, he had already come to regard Apollo as his biological son when he decided to acknowledge Apollo as his son.

“Sweetie, what is your name?” Janice made her voice especially gentle, lest she frightened her grandson.

“Apollo Woland.” When James heard Janice’s question, he immediately recalled the name of the child written on the paternity test. “You’re called Apollo Woland, right?”

“That’s right. My name is Apollo Woland.” Apollo nodded obediently.

“Is that your mother’s surname?” Janice was so astonished that she instinctively blurted out the question.

She had the niggling feeling that she had overlooked something important earlier, but it was not until this moment that she finally understood what she had overlooked.

She quickly glanced toward Keith. “Where is his mother? You brought the child back, but where is his mother?”

“That’s right. Where is the child’s mother?” James turned his gaze toward Keith. “You are at fault here. How can you make a woman give birth to a child without giving her a proper status in society? You are being disrespectful and ungrateful toward her. If you don’t treat her well and make up for your mistakes in the future, I will never forgive you.”

He added, “Hurry up and bring the child’s mother home. We will not skimp on any of the necessary ceremonial rites and traditional customs, so quickly start preparing for the wedding.”

“Yes, that’s right. Quickly start preparing for the wedding. Moreover, it has to be perfect! The wedding has to be done flawlessly!” Janice hugged her grandson tightly, refusing to loosen her grip. Regardless of the woman her son brought back, she would agree to the marriage without a second thought.

“I’m afraid the wedding might not be possible for the time being.” Keith had previously promised Apollo that he would keep Alice’s identity a secret. Since he had given his word, he could not go back on his promise.

“Keith, what are you saying? She has given birth to your child! How can you not hold a wedding for her?” Janice might be soft-hearted most of the time, but she was a person who would stand up for her principles when needed.

“The surname ‘Woland’?” James glanced at Keith, his eyes narrowing slightly in thought. “Is the child’s mother Alice Woland?”

The old man certainly caught on quickly.

The reason he dared to make such a guess was that he knew his grandson very well. Although he constantly scolded and criticized his grandson, he believed in his grandson’s character.

Keith recently announced his intention to marry Alice, then he suddenly brought home a child. James would never believe any claims that the child was unrelated to Alice.

Keith stiffened slightly. Grandpa is amazing. I can’t believe he guessed the truth so quickly.

Likewise, Apollo was also astonished. He had already disguised himself so that his current appearance no longer resembled his mother’s. How did his great-grandfather manage to guess the truth?

“Is it really… Alice Woland?” Janice’s eyes flashed quickly, then she burst out laughing. “I was wondering why this child is so good-looking. Alice is well known in Rodcaster for her beauty, and only her child would be so good-looking.”

She had previously been unsatisfied with Alice. Nevertheless, she had no intention to stop her son just because of her dissatisfaction.

If her son had insisted on marrying Alice, she would have agreed to the marriage.

As she gazed at her good-looking and well-behaved grandson at this moment, the minor dissatisfaction she held toward Alice vanished into nothing.

She was now extremely satisfied with Alice.

Alice had been disfigured in a traffic accident seven years ago, but Janice had seen her appearance before the disfigurement. She had been extremely beautiful, so it was no wonder that her child would be so good-looking.

“Keith, I will begin preparations for the wedding tomorrow. Hurry up and settle your marriage affairs.” At this moment, Janice was excited for Alice to marry into the Rowland Family as soon as possible.

Apollo initially wanted to conceal his mother’s identity, but he could not deceive them now that James had easily guessed the truth.

“Coming forward to acknowledge my family is something I did on my own. It has nothing to do with my mother, and I do not wish for this incident to affect my mother in any way. That’s why I hope that you

can keep her identity a secret, Great-Grandpa, Grandma.” He was stubbornly insistent on this matter.

“Why?” Janice was dumbfounded by Apollo’s statement. “You’ve been accepted into the Rowland Family. It’s only right for your mother to also be brought into the Rowland Family. That’s simply how things work. Don’t worry, Sweetie. We won’t allow your mother to suffer any grievances whatsoever.”

“Is it because Alice has not agreed to marry you?” Compared to Janice, James was evidently calmer. Hence, he immediately realized the root of the problem.

“That’s right.” Keith nodded without hesitation. “That’s why I hope you and Mom will keep Alice’s identity a secret until she agrees to marry me. That’s what Apollo wants. It is his method of respecting his mother’s decision and protecting her from harm.”

“But I don’t understand. Alice has already borne you a child, and the child is already at this age. Marrying into the Rowland Family is the best method to protect her.” Being a woman, Janice often considered most matters from her point of view as a woman.

“Alice is different from others. Since this is what Apollo wants, we should respect his decision. We should let the children solve their problems on their own. Let’s not worry about such matters.” James had always been open-minded. Besides, everything else did not matter since he now had a great- grandson.

He also had great confidence in his grandson. Not only was Keith an excellent man, but their child was also quite grown by now. He was certain that Alice would eventually agree to marry into the Rowland Family.

In his opinion, Alice was perfect in all aspects. Now that he also had such an obedient and sensible great-grandson, what was there for him to be dissatisfied about?

He was so elated that he would even wake up with a smile on his face.

“To be honest, when I visited the Woland Residence previously, I had the feeling that the Woland Family does not treat Alice very well. I just want to bring her into the Rowland Family so that we can protect her properly.” As a woman, Janice generally had a more considerate mindset than the men. She had noticed many issues during her visit to the Woland Residence.

Apollo glanced at Janice with his gorgeous eyes and smiled politely. “Grandma, there’s no need for you to worry about Mommy. She can take good care of herself.”

Her heart practically melted at the sight of his smile. “I will do as you say, but I can’t help feeling bad for your mother.”

“Alice has her own network support behind her. The Woland Family will not be able to bully her so easily. What’s more, we can protect her even without bringing her into the Rowland Family,” In the end, James decided to speak up for Alice.
