At the Collins family.

Ever since Jarold's phone call, Maddox decided not to go to Minerva's for the time being. Otherwise, if he stayed outside for too long, Jarold would grow to be even more suspicious.

It wasn't easy for Geoffrey to cover it up for him. He had to put on an act.

Now that he had just begun to date Minerva, their relationship was still unstable. If something really happened, he didn't know if she would be scared away.

"You're back?"

"Grandpa."

Jarold looked at this grandson of his who was in front of him, his black eyes sharp. He thought that he looked very similar to his mother, Aurora, especially the point between his eyes and brows. They looked very much like each other.

Every time he saw Sebastian going against him and refusing to admit defeat, it was as though Aurora was standing in front of him once more.

As soon as he thought of her, Jarold's heart ached. He thought back to what Monica had said by his ear that day. He looked at Sebastian and said, "You, come with me to the study."

Maddox could see through the pain in Jarold's eyes. He looked at his back and narrowed his eyes slightly.

For such a long time, Jarold had never looked at him with that kind of expression.

Could something have happened?

However, Maddox followed Jarold into the study calmly.

After entering the study, Jarold ordered Maddox to close the door and sit down.

Maddox then closed the door behind him.

He didn't take the initiative to speak, because he knew that Jarold would talk to him a lot that evening, or ask him many questions. From the moment he decided to be together with Minerva, he had already thought of all the answers and tried his best to think of all the questions Jarold would ask.
