Marriage With A Evil Heart

Chapter 177 – A Lesson from Grandpa



I could see the glint in Lilly’s eyes at this point, all stupid hope! Just like Robert and his family, there was a greed that was hard to hide.

My dad scrutinized Lilly with a solemn look on his face, “So first you have to answer a question for Grandpa, do you know what quality we most wanted you to have when you were born?”

I didn’t think my dad would ask a completely unsticky question.

The gleam in Lilly’s eyes shifted to confusion and a soft “I don’t know, dad never told me.”

My dad said in a warm voice, “Well then, how about Grandpa tells you all about it today?”

Lilly nodded, showing her childlike innocence, her eyes full of adoration as she saw her grandfather, waiting intently, an expression rarely seen on her face.

I was going to take Oliver back to his room, but immediately changed my mind and hurriedly sat down, put my arm around Oliver and sat a ‘shhh’ gesture at him, pointing to his grandpa, and Oliver, being as smart as he is, instantly understood in seconds.

How could I pass up such a great learning opportunity? I had to hear what my dad had to say.

Oliver instantly pricked up his ears as well.

My dad saw Lilly seriously, with a gentle smile on his face, and said in a loving tone, “Grandpa has a lot of books here, there is time for Grandpa to take you through them one by one, and from within these books you can see the qualities of the various characters, and although you may not understand them now, once you’ve read them and memorized them you’re bound to stand out and become the best of your generation. ” My dad then asked, “Do you understand what it means to stand out?”

“It’s just better than everyone else!” Lilly explained in a childish voice.

Her grandfather laughed out warmly, “Well, Lilly is smart enough to interpret it that way too! The exact interpretation is: it means all revealed! It means that if our Lilly had read the books, she would have been in a group of people and it would have all revealed itself.”

Sure enough, Lilly was enraptured, and she did like to be in the limelight.

“Not only do we want you to stand out, but we also want you to be caring, smart, tough, and unique. Do you understand what those mean?”© NôvelDrama.Org - All rights reserved.

Lilly, a little timid and cautious, said, “Does that mean I’ll be unique?”

His grandfather laughed and reached out to rub her head, “You are really smart, that’s what I mean! But this unique is only after you continue to work hard, everyone is born equal and ordinary, you want to be different, unique, you have to continue to improve themselves, from the book to learn the essence, do not read the book is never!”

“Grandpa you are amazing. Everyone on the ancient streets says you’re the best and most cultured in Southend!” Lilly’s face was worshipful, the compliment was off the cuff.

My dad, amused by these words, laughed out loud and put his arm around Lilly, “So, do you want to be the best in other people’s eyes too?”

Lilly was a little skeptical, but her eyes were all eager, “Can I do it?”

Her Grandpa was fairly certain, “Of course it can work, Grandpa wasn’t the greatest in his life! But Grandpa was willing to learn, and knowledge is our power, the superpower that can change everything!”

Lilly, as if awakened by these words, became exuberant all of a sudden. Before she could say anything, Oliver, fearing to be left behind, immediately shouted, “Grandpa, then I’m going to learn from you too. if Lilly can do it, so can I!”

My dad immediately asked while the iron was hot, “So do you guys want to run the street yourselves and make it yours!”

“Huh? Grandpa is this okay, you still haven’t told me if the street really belongs to our family like those people said?” Lilly circled back to the question.

“Of course it’s our own family!” My dad’s tone was quite proud, and his answer was decisive and dominant.

Even I, not to mention the kids, felt an instinctive stiffening of my spine and pride like never before.

“So … so we really do own the street?”

“Right!”

“… Ah! Awesome!”

Lilly let out a gasp! Interrupting his grandfather, I couldn’t help but look over at my dad and shrug a little in discouragement!

My dad raised his hand to stop me and continued to say to Lilly, “So Lilly, do you want to help me plan and manage this street together? After all, I’ll be getting older and there will come a time when I won’t be able to manage it, then you’ll have to manage it from now on!”

Lilly responded immediately, but then questioned, “Grandpa, I take it, you mean you’re giving me this street from now on?”

“That depends on whether or not you can carry the burden, if you can, it’s yours! The prerequisite is that you have to work hard to make yourself strong, so strong that others can’t defeat you and take away what you have in your hands, that’s the only way!”

That’s such a classic statement from my dad, having to be able to protect what everyone else is eyeing so that it doesn’t get taken away from you.

Like my Medikit Inc! I’m not protected, which only means that I’m not strong enough.

“Will I be okay, Grandpa?” Lilly asked uncertainly.

“It will work because you’re one of a kind!” My dad’s affirmed.

“Okay, Grandpa I want to stay here and learn from you!” Lilly’s words were full of childishness, but with direction.

I saw Hilda make a pretense of stepping out and cleaning up, removing her phone in the process.

My dad and I looked at each other in disbelief!

And I’m glad that what I just said was recorded in its entirety.

Robert’s favorite thing to hear would have to be my dad’s comment that the street would be for Lilly from now on, and he said exactly what his family was thinking, so it looks like today’s purpose was accomplished!

Just then a message came in on my cell phone.
