Chapter 734 A Necessary Support
Holding Grandpa Richard, Seeing Richard Foster silently shedding tears, Ivy felt deeply pained. She whispered to Richard Foster, "Grandpa, someone is trying to take your wife away. Aren't you going to do something? Don't you want to fight for her?"
Even though her voice was soft, Beckett Ashford and Annabel Lewis heard it.
Beckett Ashford's face slightly darkened, and he reproached, "Ivy, I am your grandpa here! I am Alexander's biological grandfather, and Annabel Lewis is Alexander's biological grandmother. You are Alexander's wife and should understand clearly who truly belongs to this family!"
With tearful eyes, Ivy countered, "Grandpa Beckett, what you said is true. You and Grandma Annabel have a son, a grandson, and a great-grandson. Your family is full of descendants, whether by blood or by law, you are truly a family."
"But, Grandma Annabel and Grandpa Richard have loved each other for so many years and finally came together. Between you and Grandma Annabel, there are so many offspring, but between Grandpa Richard and Grandma Annabel, there is nothing."
"What brings them together is love, a love so pure and untainted! Your unconditional devotion and infinite tolerance for Grandma Annabel, I have to admit, you are a good man and husband."
"But Grandpa Richard is also a good man, a man who has waited for love for decades. For the sake of not disturbing your life, he silently protects Grandma Annabel."
"Without his steadfast protection for decades, no one would have known about the scene where Fiona killed Annabel Lewis. Without Grandpa Richard's revelation, we would still be living in Fiona's lies."
"Grandpa Richard's love for Grandma Annabel is the same as your love for her."
"I know, as a descendant of the Ashford family, as your granddaughter-in-law, I shouldn't speak for others. However, as a child who grew up in an orphanage my whole life, I must support Grandpa Richard Foster."
"For the sake of saving Annabel Lewis and the future generations of the Ashford family, he has endured so much pain, becoming disabled after Fiona hit him with a car, unable to live a normal life, devoting himself to an orphanage."
"He has spent his entire life in dedication, always giving to others. In the end, can't he have one chance? Grandpa Beckett, if you truly love Grandma Annabel, you should let her be with the person she loves the most in her heart, instead of forcibly restraining her with children and descendants."
Beckett Ash
Ford fell silent, seemingly deep in thought and making a final decision. Richard Foster gently squeezed Ivy's hand and spoke kindly, "Ivy, Grandfather is very grateful for your support and help. But Grandfather knows that some things cannot be forced. Even if Grandfather and Annabel loved each other when they were young, even if we have feelings for each other now..."
"But we have no descendants, no family ties. Our feelings can be let go without any regrets. However, Annabel and Beckett, they cannot let go without any regrets."
"I cannot break apart a family that should be whole, for the sake of my own happiness. If I were that kind of person, I would have done it 20 or 40 years ago. I believe, even if I forcibly took Annabel away at that time, she wouldn't have hated me for long."
"But in the end, I didn't do it, because in this world, I'm not the only one who loves Annabel. Her husband loves her, her son loves her. I cannot deprive others of their right to love Annabel just because of my selfishness."
