Chapter 481 Under Her Spell

Franklin was stumped and regretted what he said. He realized that he should not have revealed that Sophia was learning traditional medicine.

Kenneth’s expression darkened when he sensed Franklin’s silence. “Is she learning from that woman?”

Although Kenneth did not mention any name, Franklin immediately knew he was talking about Natalie.

“Great-grandpa, can you show her some respect?” Franklin asked. He felt indignant on behalf of Natalie.

Kenneth felt anger brewing in his chest upon hearing what his great-grandson said. He was on the verge of bursting with fury.

As Franklin and Sophia’s great-grandfather, Kenneth doted on them since they were young. It hurt him that they kept talking back to defend a woman of unknown origin.

Therefore, the more they tried to defend Natalie, the more Kenneth grew to hate her.

“No!” Kenneth lashed out furiously.

“Great-grandpa, why are you…” Franklin mumbled angrily, “I am trying to reason with you. How can you be as stubborn as a child?”

Kenneth was rendered speechless.

That Natalie is something! It is bad enough that she put my grandson under her spell. Now, she even influenced my great-grandchildren, Franklin and Sophia. I can’t bear the indignity.

Kenneth yelled, “What did that woman tell you? Have you forgotten your real mother? How can you accept that lowly woman as your mother? You and Sophia have fallen for her trap!”

Then, Kenneth took a deep breath before continuing, “Both of you are still young and immature. Once you are older, you will understand the importance of family. Then, you will regret how you treat Yara!”

Initially, Franklin had the patience to try and reason with Kenneth. He wanted to help him to consider from his point of view.

However, the moment Kenneth mentioned Yara, Franklin could not help but feel disgusted. “Great-grandpa, I need to take a dump, so I can’t stay to chat anymore.”

Then, the phone fell silent.

Franklin hung up without saying goodbye. It hurt Kenneth’s heart to the point of breaking.

As a result, Kenneth did not have the mood to feed the fish anymore—he threw a fistful of fish feed into the pond and left.

He could not understand how his relationship with his beloved great-grandchildren had come to this point.

Kenneth had always gotten along with Franklin and Sophia. He remembered their cute voices when they called him “Great-grandpa.” Nothing could beat the joy of hearing them say that.

Now, they were not even willing to call him.

It is all Natalie’s fault!

Kenneth returned to his bedroom. He suddenly recalled Xavian and Clayton. They were about the same age as Franklin and Sophia.

A few days ago, Xavian and Clayton sent him a medical prescription.

Kenneth shared this prescription with a friend who knew medicine. His friend stayed on the mountain in seclusion. When he saw the said prescription, he declared that he wanted to come down of the mountain to meet Yara and discuss medicinal knowledge with her.

Kenneth turned down his request immediately.

After all, Yara did not prepare the prescription. Even Kenneth never met the woman who formulated it.

The butler prepared the medicine as prescribed for Kenneth to consume regularly. Soon, he discovered that his stamina and health improved tremendously.

Therefore, Kenneth became even more curious about the identity of Xavian and Clayton’s mother. She had perfected her medical skills and taught her children so well.

Kenneth’s anger and frustration receded as he thought about Xavian and Clayton.

He had not seen them for a long time. Although they had no blood relations, he missed them somehow.

Therefore, Kenneth sent a WhatsApp message to Xavian and Clayton, inviting them to meet up. He soon received their replies: Okay!

Kenneth could not help but feel excited and immediately instructed the butler to buy the children’s favorite snacks.

After the butler left, Kenneth was suddenly puzzled by his behavior.

Why am I so fond of Xavian and Clayton? That sense of affection and familiarity seems no different from what I feel for Franklin and Sophia.
