Chapter 232
The Austin Family’s Kids Can’t Be Wronged
“Hi!” Marc sighed, “What insomnia? I just don’t want to sleep. Don’t listen to Zain’s nonsense!”
The more he denied it, the more it proved that it was a fact.
After being strong and domineering for a lifetime, how could Marc admit that he would be old, sick, and facing various bodily organs decline?
However, Silvia knew that he attached much importance to his self-esteem, so she didn’t unveil his lie. Instead, she followed his words and said, “Yes, you don’t want to sleep, but you used to tell us that martial artists have to keep a regular schedule and have enough rest to conserve their energy. However, you are not behaving like a good example.”
Her words made Marc laugh. It was rare for a serious person like Marc to smile. Silvia was
surprised.
After laughing for a few seconds, Marc sighed faintly. “Do you remember what I’ve told you?”
“Yes, of course!” How could she forget? After so many years of teaching and instruction, she could
not forget Marc’s words even when she closed her eyes.
“In that case, you must remember how I used to punish you, right?” he continued.
Silvia turned silent.
It was impossible for her to forget all that. It was just that the punishment was too harsh back then,
so she once felt that it would be impossible for her to survive in this family.
At that time, she only thought that life was rough in the Austin family, but she did not know that the people outside were truly vicious. In comparison, those days when she had been trained heavily
were much better.
Seeing that she did not speak, Marc gently patted the back of her hand. “When you were young, I was indeed too harsh on you. But even now, I do not regret it. However, I am very happy that you can come back.”
It was actually not easy for him to say these words. Silvia never expected him to apologize, but his words made the last bit of resentment in her heart disappear.
In fact, when Silvia thought about it, she realized that every member of the Austin family grew up in the same way. Indeed, she did not enjoy any special treatment because she was Marc’s granddaughter, but at the same time, she did not receive any additional training.
As a member of the Austin Family, Silvia could be provoked or attacked at any time. If she hadn’t
been forced to practice and lay a good foundation, how could she face all kinds of challenges in the future?
Later, she understood it all. However, she drifted away from her family because of Ladarius. At that time, she did not want to come back. And she felt that it was embarrassing to come back just like that. Back then, she wholeheartedly wanted to make achievements and return with a great reputation
In her imagination, after she became successful, her grandfather would definitely forgive her and Ladarius would be impressed by her.
However, reality proved that her family’s foresight was not wrong. Ladarius was indeed not a good man, and his actions broke her heart.
At that moment, Silvia was sitting here and thinking back to the past. She realized that it was all the
past. And Marc’s words made her finally let go.
“Grandpa.” She leaned into her grandfather’s arms and said in a low voice, “I’m sorry.”
Marc didn’t reply.
However, Silvia sensed him tremble. Marc probably did not expect Silvia to say this. It was shocking to him because he had never seen any kid being so childish with him.
Each one of Marc’s children or disciples was respectful and fearful of him. When they saw him, they would stand aside obediently. No one had ever snuggled in his embrace.
Marc might have hesitated or was slow in reaction when Silvia threw herself into his arms. Anyway,
he did not push her away. Instead, he lowered his head and looked at Silvia’s head. A long-lost love for his granddaughter surged in his heart. It was as if he had returned to the first time he had become a father.
After so many years of being a dignified man of the family, Marc had almost forgotten how it felt to
be a loving father and an amiable old man.
His body stiffened for a few seconds before he raised his hand and gently stroked Silvia’s back. “What nonsense are you saying?” he sighed.
“Grandpa, I was willful in the past. I’m sorry!” Silvia said in a low voice.
Now she realized how stupid and unreasonable she had been to leave his family for such a man.
“Silly child, everyone makes mistakes when they are young. You just need to remember that this place will always be your home!” After he finished speaking, he turned his head and coughed a few times.
Hearing Marc coughing, Silvia quickly got up and looked at him nervously. “Are you alright? I’ll call the doctor over and examine you!”
Marc held her hand and frowned, “There is no need! It’s just a minor illness. I’ll get better if I drink more water and get more sleep!”
Then Marc picked up the cup on the bedside cabinet and took two sips of water. He said, “Look, I’m alright now! By the way, are you leaving? You are all by yourself outside, but now I have nothing to worry about. You are very good at taking care of yourself now. Well, you can come back to take a look whenever you want.”
After a pause, he added, “That kid surnamed Palmer seems nice. But if you want to get married to
him, you’d better wait and take a closer look. There’s no hurry!”
Silvia was speechless.
Looking at her hesitant expression, Marc had a bad feeling. “Don’t tell me that you have already..
Silvia was in a dilemma when she heard Marc’s words. So she gritted her teeth and blurted out,
“Grandpa, I have already gotten married to him officially.”
“What?” Marc sat up abruptly, with his eyes widened in shock. “You, you…”
“This is an accident, just an accident! We haven’t made it public yet, so we didn’t mean to hide it from you,” Silvia hurriedly explained.
“It hasn’t been made public yet?” Marc frowned and repeated her words,
If this matter was made public, it was impossible for the Austin Family to know nothing about it.
Marc thought for a moment and asked, “Zain doesn’t know either?”
“I think… He doesn’t know.” After all, Silvia did not tell him. Besides, if Zain had known it, he would
definitely have told Marc.
“Excellent! You guys have grown up and can decide for yourselves!” Marc nodded his head as he said. Although Marc said so, Silvia, with years of experience, knew that he was angry.
“Grandpa, we were in a specific situation and I didn’t mean to hide it from you.”
Back then, when she and Simon got married, she was in a daze. Their marriage could be considered the result of impulse or destiny.
Originally, Silvia had only wanted to seek his help, but then she somehow got married to him. It all happened just like that.
Silvia believed that her choice wasn’t wrong this time, so she didn’t regret it.
Marc waved his hand and closed his eyes. Then he leaned back, saying, “Forget it. What’s done is done. I can’t make you two divorce. But…”
He slowly opened his eyes and said, “Since you’ve got the marriage certificate, we can’t keep it a secret forever. Let’s find a day to hold the wedding. The kids of the Austin family can’t be treated wrongly.”
Now that Simon and Silvia had gotten married, there is no point in opposing it. Besides, Simon appeared to be a nice man in Marc’s eyes.
“Alright!” Silvia nodded, with her heart filled with warmth.
