Whispers Of Betrayal (Anastasia and Alastor)

Chapter 145

“Grandma, drink some water.” Alastor poured a glass of warm water for his grandma.

Actually, Alastor could tell that his grandmother had something to advise him.

“Alastor, I don’t have much time left,” Andrea said calmly.

“Grandma, please don’t say that…” Alastor lowered his head, trying to hold back his emotions.

“You grew up with me and your grandpa. The proudest thing in my life is to nurture you and your father,” Andrea said, taking Alastor’s hand. “But your grandfather and I failed to set a good example for you. Our relationship had never been great, and your father is not a good father, nor a good husband as well. It’s unfortunate that no one has taught you how to be a good husband.”

Alastor remained silent.

Andrea knew Alastor was not good at expressing himself and tended to keep everything in his heart.

When Alastor was a kid, he didn’t have parents by his side like other children.

When other children got bullied, they had their fathers to support them, but Alastor could only rely on himself.

He had always been indifferent to emotions and had never invested too much in them.

During puberty, while other children were in love, Alastor was always alone.
