Chapter 954

Franklin stated, “He is your grandfather, after all.

He believed you were too young back then and worried about the wrong sort of people leading you astray, so he might have been overly controlling.

Regarding the missing girls you mentioned, he simply relocated them out of Morcastle and ensured they were settled in other cities.

He’s not the monster you imagine him to be.

Franklin met Domenic’s gaze, his expression thoughtful.

He Licked his dry lips and continued, “Things are different now.

Over the years, you’ve demonstrated your capabilities to your grandpa.

He had intended to pass the leadership of the Walsh Group to you, trusting in your judgment of people.

Moreover, he always believed that Miss Larson was meant to be with you.
