Chapter 374

Edmund's hand, which had been holding the cup, jolted slightly.

As he lowered his head, a trace of bitterness flashed across his eyes.

“Grandpa, is providing an heir for the family that important? Do I really have to deliver an heir for the Chivers family?”

Glen was bewildered upon hearing that.

As he finally made sense of Edmund's words, his face grew solemn. “It's not that we desperately want an heir, but at the very least, it's better if there's a woman who can keep you company and take care of you. Otherwise, how are you going to live the rest of your life? Eddy, some people are destined to come into your life for a brief moment, so you don't have to be so obsessed with them.”

A bitter smile played around Edmund's lips. In a hoarse voice, he replied, “But I have already fallen for her. Grandpa, you used to be deeply in love with Grandma too. There was a time when you even wanted to end your life for Grandma. You should understand the torture of being in love with someone.”

As he spoke, he suddenly rose to his feet and walked up to Glen. He dropped to his knees abruptly.

“Grandpa, I'm afraid I'll have to become the first unfilial child of the Chivers family.”

As a clever man, Glen understood what he meant.

However, there was nothing he could say at that point.

“Forget it. Get up first. Some things are destined by fate, and no one can change them. If God really wants the Chivers family to be heirless, there is nothing we can do anyway, right?”

Edmund lowered his head. After remaining silent for a while, he slowly got up. “The Chivers family still has other members. I'll pick one of my uncles' children in a few years and adopt him. Grandpa, don't worry. I won't let the Chivers family lineage end like this.”

Glen waved his hand.

His grandson had been in such distress. As the elder of the family, he couldn't bring himself to force his grandson.
