The Woman From Hell

The next day, it was the weekend. Munchkin was at home. We wanted to take the children out but Neil wanted to come and so we canceled our plans to go out.

This was Munchkin's first-time meeting Neil.

"You can call him uncle." I glanced at Munchkin.

Munchkin was a polite boy and called him uncle like I asked him to.

Neil smiled. "So you're Munchkin. You're a handsome and dashing boy."

"You're cool too, uncle. Like daddy."

Children did not lie. Neil and Theo shared the same blood so they had similar auras, which could be seen at a glance.

I stroked his little head and turned my gaze to Theo. Although Theo accepted Neil the last time, the two brothers still did not interact with each other much and were still quite awkward with one another until now. "Theo." I winked at him.

When Theo saw this, he glanced at the water in front of Neil and said slightly, "Please have a drink."

This unique greeting was so like Theo.

Neil smiled. "Alright."

They were so polite, so awkward.

I exchanged glances with Munchkin. I believed he was thinking the same as I was at this moment.

Caroline brought the two children down. Timothy and Wendy could both already walk a little. They broke the silence the moment they arrived, attracting both Theo and Neil's attention.

I purposely stayed back and watched Neil and Theo hold hands with one of the children each.

This was such a beautiful scene.

Theo and Neil played with the children the entire morning. The children then drank some milk before they went for their afternoon nap.

I knew Theo and Neil were in the study so I prepared some tea and fruits and brought it up to them.

The two of them looked like they were compatible with one another in the study. They looked as if they were discussing business.

They were all capable people. After Nibel left Neil also resigned from Pristine I wanted Theo to bring Neil into Grant Corporation to help out, but alas, Theo never said anything.

Was this not an opportunity?

Standing at the door, I coughed and only spoke after I caught their attention. "What are you guys talking about so seriously? I didn't even dare come in before making a sound to catch your attention." NôvelDrama.Org holds this content.

I placed the fruit plate on the side of the table and looked at the document in Theo's hand. "Wasn't this the project you were cracking your head over the past few days? Did you think of a solution?"

"We were discussing it just now. We've roughly put together a plan." Theo put down the document and turned to look at Neil. "You've got pretty good ideas." He so obviously admired the other but would not show it.

I looked at Neil. "That's right, Neil is indeed a bright person. Keep the good genes within the family. Theo, why don't you ask Neil to help you out at the company?" Neil was a little surprised when he heard this and hurriedly asked, "Can I?" There was obvious joy in his voice.

I was similarly anticipating Theo's answer eagerly.

Theo frowned at first but then his brows slowly eased. After a moment, he replied slowly, "Yes. You're a Grant too, you should."

"That's great." Neil looked at me like a happy three-year-old. It then registered in his mind and Neil looked at Theo. "A...a Grant?" "Yes. Are you not?"

"Yes. Yes, I am." Neil's face slowly broke into a smile. There were even some tears in his eyes.

After so many years, he had finally been acknowledged.

I could feel his happiness as well. "Could I call you Neil Grant in the future then?"

"Let's find a time to organize a reception. I'll make an official announcement," Theo said.

"Thank you for accepting me, brother."

A smile unconsciously made its way to my face as I watched them...
