Triple Blessings: Mr. Fu’s Passionate Pursuit

Chapter 721: Chapter 717: Safe and Sound, Return Home Soon

Old Master’s refusal to eat had been a headache for the old butler for most of the day.

In the end, with Timmy’s intervention, Old Master obediently ate his meal.

Not only did he eat, but he also took a large handful of various health supplements, such as vitamins and calcium tablets, at Timmy’s urging, half an hour after finishing his meal.

Seeing that Mr. Timmy’s words were so effective, the old butler secretly planned to call back the next day and ask Mr. Timmy to persuade Old Master to go home early.

Living in such a remote place with morning frost and evening cold wasn’t easy for the ninety-year-old Old Master.

However, before the butler could make the call, Old Master instructed him before bedtime.

“Tomorrow morning, you go and take care of things over there and offer some extra incense money. By the way, tell them that we are leaving the mountain tomorrow noon,” he said.

Caught off guard by this sudden decision, the old butler was for a moment in disbelief.

“Old Master, have you thought it through? We’re leaving the mountain tomorrow?”

Such sudden joy made the old butler feel as if he were dreaming.

He knew that before, no matter how much he nagged, Old Master wouldn’t relent.

Why had he suddenly changed his mind after just half a day’s time?

The old butler didn’t connect this with Timmy’s phone call until he heard Old Master sigh deeply.

“Yes, I’ve thought it through!”

“I was foolish to suffer here for some petty creatures and neglect my well-behaved and adorable great-grandchildren at home.”

“My days are numbered, and I should cherish every extra day I can spend with them…”

Old Master’s words almost brought the old butler to tears.

“Old Master, you will live a long life and be with them for a long time…”

Old Master nodded, “Yes, Timmy is right. I should take good care of myself. As for my late wife, she has been waiting for so many years, a few more won’t make a difference.”

As people grow older, they become more nostalgic for people and things from the past.

If there’s nothing left in the world for them to linger on, they willingly move on to another realm to reunite with those they’ve longed for and missed.

Before Timmy was sent back to the Lewis, Old Master felt his attachment to the world diminishing day by day.

He even saw that the dying flame of his life was gradually weakening.

When Timmy returned, his will to live seemed to be somewhat restored.

However, at the time, Timmy was as aloof as his father and not very affectionate.

Even when he was occasionally playful with Old Master, he still lacked the lively spirit of ordinary children.

Living in the Lewis, Old Master felt the cold and loneliness intensifying daily.

At that time, every night before sleep, he had a subtle anticipation.

An anticipation that in his dreams, the person he had loved and cherished for a lifetime would come to take him away.

Everything changed when Richelle Dunn returned to Kindur with Timothy and Tifanny.

Timmy began to brighten up day by day, and his once cold eyes began to regain the vitality and warmth of a normal child.

He became more and more affectionate, and each time he acted cute, Old Master’s heart seemed to warm up a little.

Afterward, when Timothy and Tifanny were introduced, Old Master spent more and more time living with his grandchildren, daughter-in-law, and great-grandchildren.

The house was lively all day long, but he never once felt irritated or uncomfortable.

That previous feeling of living in an ice cave had long ceased to appear.

The occasional surges of loneliness and desolation had also disappeared for a long time.

Every night before sleep, he no longer prayed for his late wife to take him away.

Rather, he prayed for many more years of health and longevity.

To see the kids graduate and grow from children to confident young teenagers…

That night, before falling asleep, Old Master spoke to the smiling face that appeared in his mind.

“My dear, I’m sorry, but I might be a few years late before I can join you. Please don’t blame me.”

The smiling face in his mind just kept smiling at him, without saying a word.

So Old Master understood that this was not only his wish but also his family’s precious wish.

Early the next morning, Roy Lewis received a call from the old butler.

“Mr. Roy, Old Master is coming down the mountain at noon. He says he wants to eat Dr. Dunn’s dumplings tonight.”

Roy had tried to persuade Old Master to come down the mountain several times before, but he had always been very firm in his decision.

This time, hearing that he wanted to come down and go home, Roy was surprised.

“Did my grandfather say that himself?”

The old butler hummed in agreement, recounting how he had called to find Roy and Richelle the day before but ended up only talking to Timmy and the subsequent events.

“Old Master’s temper can only be tamed by Mr. Timmy and Miss Tifanny,” he said.

Roy couldn’t help but sigh, “Indeed, if it had been Richelle and me trying to persuade him, we probably wouldn’t have achieved such results.” fгee𝑤ebɳoveɭ.cøm

At least Roy had some self-awareness.

Of course, this wasn’t to say that he and Richelle mattered less in Old Master’s heart.

But as adults, they couldn’t just disregard Old Master’s wishes to stay on the mountain.

Unlike Timmy and the others, who thought like children.

They wanted to get their way regardless of whether it was reasonable or not.

So they didn’t care about respecting Old Master’s thoughts.

All they wanted was for their great-grandfather to come home safely and soon!
