While the grandfather and granddaughter enjoyed their time together, the old butler watched from the corner, envious.

The butler thought, ‘I genuinely envy Richard–he gets to hold Yvonne and play with her.’

The butler, about the same age as Richard, was slightly different. His body wasn’t as strong–years of hard work and lingering health issues had taken a toll.

Although he had recovered somewhat during his stay with the Holmes family, he still lacked the strength to hold Yvonne.

The butler thought, ‘If I lose my strength and drop Yvonne, I’ll never forgive myself!‘

For now, he could only watch from the sidelines, a quiet observer.

He glanced at the clock on the wall–lunchtime had arrived. It was time to remind Yvonne to eat.

As expected, Richard stayed at the Holmes residence for lunch, and when he sat down to eat, he casually took the nearly finished jar of jasmine wine with him.

By the time they were eating, the bottle was placed right in front of him. Richard enjoyed the meal so much that he drank the entire bottle himself.

Feeling utterly satisfied, he even forgot about his scheduled checkup for the afternoon.

The best part was that the wine wasn’t decisive. Despite drinking so much, Richard still felt sharp and alert, without a hint of dizziness.

When the time came for his appointment, he leisurely went to the hospital. The scent of jasmine wine lingered in the air, leaving a trail wherever he went.

As Richard walked through the hospital, the scent of the wine seemed to draw people’s attention, causing them to stop and

stare.

To the casual observer, Richard was just an ordinary older man, yet somehow, he turned heads wherever he went.

Some even braved the watchful eyes of his bodyguards, walking up to ask him where he had gotten the wine.

It was a question he got asked several times on his way, but Richard never grew impatient. With a hearty laugh and a smug smile, he proudly told everyone it was wine made by Yvonne.

When people complimented the scent but walked away with a look of regret, Richard only felt more pleased. Of course, Yvonne’s creations were always the best.
