Chapter 502 Deserve To Die

Betty turned around and fell into a daze. “Theodore.” Theodore strode over and gazed at the pictureon the headstone. “Andrew resembled you.”Betty remained silent.Kathleen frowned. “Grandma, youtwo know each other?"We've been friends for many years,” Theodore said solemnly.Given thechoice, I'd not have the slightest inclination to be friends with you. I heard you fired a shot at mygranddaughter?” Betty uttered coldly.Theodore froze momentarily before responding awkwardly,“That's a misunderstanding. I did not know her identity at that time."Betty said icily, “Theodore, afterall the bad things you all have done, you'll be faced with retribution sooner or later.”"He replied in aself-deprecating tone, “Retribution? I've already met mine. My son died a few years ago."Betty askedfrostily, “Why are you here?"Theodore turned to look at Kathleen. “I'm here to meet withyou."Kathleen knitted her brows. “Me?"He gazed at her. “You need to be more careful.”"What do Ineed to be careful of?” Kathleen was confused.Have I not dealt with everyone who needs to betaken care of?“Explain yourself!” Betty demanded in displeasure.”Yareli. She blames you forVanessa's death,” Theodore reminded.Kathleen frowned slightly. “How did you know aboutthat?"“She found me. She wanted to collaborate with me,” he explained Kathleen utteredindifferently, “I can't believe she still hasn't given up.”“Vanessa's death has nothing to do with you. Ithink Yareli is just a lunatic.” Betty furrowed her brows.”Rest assured, Grandma. I'll handle thatproblem.” Kathleen did not wish for Betty to be worried about her.Betty grasped Kathleen's hand. “Ithink these people are being ungrateful.”“That's right,” Kathleen agreed.Theodore merely stared ather in a solemn manner. “I'll be leaving now."“Hold on. Aren't you going to avenge your son?”Kathleen gave him a meaningful look.He smiled. “My son has been avenged.”Kathleen was takenaback. “Don't tell me Trevor is..."Theodore regarded her with a poker face. “This person no longerexists in this world. That's all.”Kathleen pursed her lips. “I know I should not be meddling in thegrudges between you two, but..."Theodore elaborated, “He felt rather remorseful. He regrettedtreating your grandmother in that manner. However, life is a collection of choices and decisions. It isdifficult for us to turn a new leaf after making one significant mistake. He gave you all those thingsto make it up for your grandmother.”*I will not accept them,” Kathleen stated."That's your problemthen.” He turned on his heel.”"Where are you going?” Kathleen asked in curiosity. Theodore paused. “Idon't know. I'll leave that to fate now that I've avenged my son.”He had already lost the will to

live. With that, Theodore turned around and left.Kathleen let out a deep sigh. “It's unexpected thatTrevor really died.”Betty said, “People like him deserve to die."Kathleen nodded in agreement.”lguess Theodore is planning to go to that place.” Betty speculated."Where?” Kathleen was eager toknow."His wife's hometown. She came from Jedayton. I suppose he will probably go there.” Bettysighed.Kathleen could not help but ask, “Grandma, how did you two know each other?"“We grew uptogether, but there's nothing romantic between us. We are just friends. I was informed when he wasmarried and blessed with a son. His wife died because of Luna,” Betty explained.Kathleen wasshocked. “That's unbelievable.” Their grudges were deep-seated. He's a pitiful man, actually.” Bettysighed again.Kathleen pursed her lips. “Let's go back, Grandma.""Okay.” Betty nodded.They got intothe car and went to the Macari residence.Diana and Betty were excited to be reunited.The two ofthem had met many years ago.Although they did not chat for long then, the two women got alongwell. However, they did not have a chance to meet again after Betty went overseas.Their previousencounter prompted both women to feel as if they had been friends for a long time instead ofnewly-met acquaintances now that they were reunited.Kathleen felt relieved as she watched themtalking happily.Diana invited Betty to stay.Betty found it difficult to refuse the invitation and had nochoice but to agree.That night, Kathleen exited the bathroom after she was done showering.Samuelfrowned while browsing through something.She sat down beside him. “What are you lookingat?"“Eil and Desi will be starting school soon. I'm helping them to select a school,” he repliedsolemnly.Kathleen took a glance and noticed Samuel was surveying all the best private schools.Sheasked, “Is it that difficult to make a choice?"Placing her to sit between his legs, Samuel explained,“This school provides relatively good basic education while this one focuses more on their students’self-development.”I think Eil's talent will go to waste if he attends the first school. Desi, on theother hand, is suitable. Eil is more fitted to go to the second school,” Kathleen expressed herthoughts."Yes. Moreover, I sought Eil's opinion earlier,” Samuel said."What did he say?” Kathleen wascurious.”He wishes to go overseas.”"Go overseas?” Kathleen was stunned. “How can he leave ourside at such a young age?"“Kate, I haven't agreed to his suggestion yet."She pursed her lips. “But areyou considering that option?"“I promised Eil to respect all the decisions he makes,” Samuelanswered.Kathleen fell silent.”Kate, if you do not want him to go abroad, I'll let him know,” hecomforted her.She shook her head. “No, it's okay. If that's truly what he desires, I'll respect hisdecision too. I just think that Eil seems to have lost the sense of happiness as a child. He's toomature for his age.”Samuel held her hands. “If you're worried, we can accompany him there.” Butthere are too many places that need us.” Kathleen's eyes reddened.They were not only Eilam'sparents but also had many other responsibilities and commitments.Still, Kathleen could not possiblybe so selfish as to request Eilam not to go abroad.If Eilam really wanted to go, she wouldundoubtedly be supportive as well.Samuel comforted her, “The transportation system nowadays isvery advanced. We can meet with him at any time."Kathleen nodded. “You support his decision togo overseas, am I right?"“Yes.” He bobbed his head. “He can choose what to do with his life.Moreover, I think his decision is not bad.”Feeling a little dejected, she asked, “What if Desi is the onewho wants to go abroad?”“I will not stop her either. I wish for them to have the power to choosehow they want to live their lives. They are our children, so we should have faith in their decisions.Don't you think so?”She pursed her lips. “I can allow Eil to go overseas, but he needs to be a fewmore years older.”"Samuel sensed that was Kathleen's extent of compromising. He nodded. “Okay. Igot it."Kathleen glanced at the pamphlets of the schools on Samuel's legs. “I'll bring them to visitthese two schools tomorrow and let them choose for themselves.”
