The maid left the room along with the tea.

The room turned silent. Jarold stared at the print of the table cloth and let out a heavy sigh.

A few days ago, when his great-grandson was still here, this room was filled with their combined laughter. It was lively, but now that Beanie had left, this place felt empty again.

Just like in the past countless lonely days he had lived in.

Oh Jarold, you're an old man now. You have lived through the past alone and this is just how it used to be, so why aren't you used to it? He wondered to himself.

Once a person experienced warmth, it was hard to go back to being in the cold.

He let out a few sighs continuously. The two maids standing by the entrance looked at each other helplessly but didn't say a word. They were afraid that if Master Collins heard them speak, he would get upset and punish them.

After all, they all knew they had to take care of his emotions at a time like this.

After some time, he felt that his back was aching.

"Alas, it's true that we get more useless when we're old."

He wanted to stand up, but at this moment, a childish voice suddenly came into the room.

"Great-Grandpa!"

Jarold's body trembled. He felt as though he was hallucinating. Otherwise, how could he have heard Beanie's voice?

This must be a hallucination!

He got up from the chair as footsteps approached him from behind.

Clatter! Clatter! Clatter!

Clatter! Clatter! Clatter!

The sound of footsteps came closer and soon arrived behind him. Then, the footsteps stopped and he could hear the child being out of breath. "Great-Grandpa! I'm back!"

Jarold was stunned. Only after being in daze for a few seconds, did he turn his head.

At a glance, he saw Beanie standing in front of him.
