Alex put Amelia down and held her hand to the three tablets. He picked up six incense sticks and lit them up. He gave three incense sticks to Amelia and held three incense sticks himself. Alex knelt on the prayer mat and kowtowed. “Old Master, look who this is. You didn’t expect your grandson to have such a cute daughter in his life, right?”
All these years, the last thing that Alex couldn’t let go of was the last time he saw his grandfather. He turned around, and his grandfather was also looking at him. When he turned back again, only his grandfather’s bloody back was left. He clearly knew that it was the last time, but he didn’t have time to say anything.
Alex said, “Miao, this is great-grandpa.”
Amelia imitated Alex and knelt on the mat. She shouted, “Great-grandpa.”
Alex’s throat was slightly dry. He said again, “This is Grandpa and Grandma.”
Amelia said, “Grandpa, Grandma.” With that, she kowtowed like Alex. She kowtowed so hard that she couldn’t control her strength and hit her head on the ground.
“Ouch.” Amelia hurriedly covered her forehead, but the hand holding the three incense sticks was steady. Alex quickly picked her up and asked, “Are you alright?” In the end, he saw that his daughter’s forehead was red. Not only was it red, but it also seemed to be a little swollen. She was kowtowing too hard.
Alex was speechless for a moment. He brought Amelia to offer the incense and three cups of wine before leaving the ancestral hall.
“Does it still hurt?” On the way back, Alex gently touched Amelia’s forehead. Amelia covered her forehead with both hands. She didn’t feel any pain just now, but it was starting to hurt now.
Alex sent someone to get medicine, but Amelia was staring at the courtyard. The female ghost had not been able to enter the ancestral hall just now and could only stand outside. A place like the ancestral hall was like someone else’s territory. Ordinary ghosts would only sneak in to eat some tribute unless they were starving. Otherwise, they would usually avoid it. In addition, Michael
Burton’s memorial tablet had merit, he had sacrified himself for his country. Ordinary ghosts did not dare to provoke him.
Alex followed Amelia’s gaze and looked at the osmanthus tree in the courtyard. He asked, “What are you looking at?” The courtyard was dark. What was there to see?
Amelia hesitated for a moment and asked, “Dad, did you look for an Auntie outside?”
Alex was stunned. “What?” Looking for an auntie? Was he that kind of person? No, what did the Walton family teach his daughter? He frowned and said, “Dad didn’t look for an auntie in the past. I won’t look for an auntie now, and I definitely won’t look for an auntie in the future. Dad isn’t interested in women.”
Amelia exclaimed and asked, “Then how was I born?”
Alex: “…” He coughed and said, “Your mother doesn’t count.”
Amelia’s train of thought was completely off. She asked, “Why doesn’t Mom count?”
Alex said, “Because Dad’s contact with your mother was an accident.”
Amelia asked, “Is Mia also an accident?”
Alex choked.
Amelia asked again, “Does Daddy not like Mommy?
Alex: ‘
Amelia: “Since Daddy doesn’t like Mommy, why did you still interact with
Mommy and have an accident?”
Alex was speechless. He touched his nose and changed the topic. “Mia, do you want to eat ice cream?
Amelia’s eyes lit up. “I want to eat it!” The father and daughter forgot about their conversation and prepared to find ice cream.
Under the osmanthus tree, the female ghost hugged her head with a hint of resentment in her eyes. She floated and followed, keeping a distance from Alex, but she refused to leave.
“Uh-uh-uh…” The ghost made a short sound in her throat. It sounded scary. Her throat felt like it had been cut off. She couldn’t make a sound.
George was busy until noon the next day. He didn’t expect Alex to not send
Amelia back yet! Old Madam Su controlled the wheelchair and came out of the house. She said angrily, “Where’s Mia? You’re already so old. How can you lose the child when you go out?”
George pursed his lips and explained, “Mom, Mia was taken away by her tather.”
Old Madam Walton glared at him. “If you didn’t bring her back, you lost her!”
George looked at Old Master Walton, who was behind Old Madam Walton. Behind Old Master Walton were Andrew, Eric, Chris, and Dylan. Then, there was Lucas, William, and Emma.. The entire family crossed their arms and stared at him, as if saying, “You still have the cheek to come back after losing Mia?”
