Chapter 245 You Unfilial Son
Theodore understood all of Charles's concerns.
If Charles wanted to continue his long-term relationship with Luna, he had to be prepared for a prolonged battle with Luna's relatives.
For Charles, wasn't this also a test of his relationship with Luna?
This was also the reason why Ashley was cold towards Luna.
Ashley didn't want Luna's relatives to affect Charles or the reputation of the Lee family.
Although Charles's identity hadn't been exposed yet, there was no guarantee that it wouldn't be revealed someday. At that time, it would be even harder to get rid of those relatives.
"Charles, they keep bothering Luna every now and then. There's no guarantee that it will be resolved smoothly every time. Your future is a long and arduous journey."
Theodore advised Charles, and was about to hang up the phone when Charles suddenly said, "Grandpa, don't hang up yet. I need a favor."
Hearing the word "favor," Theodore's heart skipped a beat, instinctively feeling it wasn't a good thing.
"Grandpa, tomorrow is the last day of the one-month period Luna and I agreed on. I don't want a divorce, but I've thought of many reasons. I even tore up Luna's marriage certificate and flushed it down the toilet; it's probably in the ocean by now.
But the more I interact with Luna, the more I understand her temper. If she wants a divorce, not having the marriage certificate will only delay things temporarily. I want to find a long-term solution. I've thought of many reasons, and the best one now is you, Grandpa.
After all, you've met Luna a few times, and you've helped each other. I think she will consider your feelings."
After Charles finished speaking, Theodore felt something was off.
If it were about persuading Luna not to divorce, he would help without Charles asking.
He felt that Charles had another scheme in mind.
"Charles, get to the point." Theodore was ready to be manipulated by Charles.
"Grandpa, I want to tell Luna that you're sick, very sick, and that you want to see me happy and don't want me to get divorced. Luna is kind at heart, and you two have a good relationship. For your sake, she will agree. I want to use this to sign an agreement with her to continue living together for another year."
After Charles finished speaking, Theodore laughed in anger.
"You ungrateful child! How dare you curse me?"
Charles sighed, "Forget it then, I'll just get a divorce."
Theodore fell silent. Was he being blackmailed?
"Divorce my ass! I'll cooperate with you! But you should also reflect on yourself. Why is it that after meeting Luna only twice, you're sure that she will consider my feelings and continue living with you after knowing my identity?
And yet, after living under the same roof with her for a month, she still doesn't want to stay with you! Aren't you a failure!
How did you treat her before?"
After Theodore finished speaking, he hung up the phone with a snap.
"Grant, stop the car!"
Theodore, with a dark expression, signaled the driver to stop.
As soon as Grant Lynch stopped the car, Theodore pounded on the seat back, his expression pained.
"For my grandson's happiness, I'm making a huge sacrifice this time! Grant, what should I do to make up for such a big sacrifice?"
Grant, with a wooden expression, calmly said, "If it were me, I'd reward myself with a good meal."
Theodore: "What if a good meal doesn't help?"
Grant: "Then have another meal."
Theodore patted Grant's shoulder. "You're right! Tonight, I'm not going back. A full package of gourmet food, sauna, and foot massage is my treat."
Grant fell silent.
He thought to himself: Mr. Lynch, you don't have a wife, but I do. If my wife finds out, she'll skin me alive!
After hanging up the phone, Charles felt very guilty. For his own happiness, he had to trouble Theodore, which indeed made him unfilial.
However, his guilt quickly vanished when he received a call from Luna.
"Charles, are you coming back for dinner tonight? I have a surprise for you."
Luna's tone was light and warm.
