Her Return, His Regret by Natie

Chapter 106~ Before it's too late

Miles Kingsley froze.

He turned to look at the source of the voice and his eyes widened when he saw a small adorable figure running towards him.

"Grandpa!" The little girl wrapped her arms around Miles' legs and looked up. "You're Daddy's Daddy, right? You look alike and you look like Ethan too."

Miles' heart skipped a beat. He looked down at the little girl and then looked up at the woman who was approaching while holding the hand of a little boy who looked so much like Ryan. "This..."

Miles was bereft of any words.

He turned to look at Ryan, a questioning look on his face.

"What's going on, son? Are these your children?" Miles asked.

Ryan nodded and replied, "Yes, Dad. This is Ella and this is Ethan. Not only is Larisa alive, but she also gave me two beautiful children."

Miles glanced at the two children, his eyes watering with tears. He said, "So, I'm a grandfather... and I'm the last person to know that my son has children?"

"Miles, it's not really easy to tell you anything when you have a viper whispering in your ears," Charles remarked, his eyebrows furrowing.

Miles looked at his father and snapped, "Father, you've always been unwelcoming towards Celeste. She's a good woman. You would see that if you only gave her a chance... knowing you guys didn't tell me about my grandchildren just because of my wife makes me feel so sad..."

He turned to look at Ryan and uttered, "I'm your father, Ryan."

"Yes, you are, Dad... but-" Ryan wanted to ask Miles if he had really been acting like a father all these years.

However, he held himself back because of the kids. He sighed and said, "I'm sorry, Dad. I should have told you when I found out about them."
