Chapter 561 Pierre Fowler's Maternal Grandfather

Selena never knew that Francesca Moody's father was an admiral in Yucaria, and that she married into a faraway land before ending her own life in the most miserable way possible. At the same time, Selena also came to understand why Pierre would make the bold decision to bring his family of five over to Yucaria.

It was all because he had connections in Yucaria, so he was certain they would be safe. Even if he had to depart in such a hurry, he wasn't worried at all. After all, his grandfather was an admiral here, so nobody would dare lay a finger on them.

"Have a seat. Just treat me like a regular kind old man." The kids laughed at Evan's odd accent when he tried to speak in Astoric, which instantly eased the tense atmosphere. The sight of the three kids surrounding Evan reminded Selena of those more peaceful times.

After the family had a jolly meal together, Selena brought the kids upstairs for a nap. Meanwhile, Evan and Pierre remained seated in the living room, which indicated that there would be an important conversation happening between them, so Selena figured she shouldn't be disturbing them.

"What are your plans?" Evan and Pierre were speaking in English.

Because the admiral felt like he owed his daughter a lot, he projected all of the love he had onto Pierre, his maternal grandson. Nonetheless, they didn't get to meet up a lot with each other. In fact, Evan was irked when he met Pierre again this time. Why didn't Pierre bring his children to meet me as soon as he came? He only came to me for help when sh*t hit the fan!

"I haven't thought about what to do." Pierre had been planning to help Selena replace her mother's bracelet, but they got into trouble before even replaceing it, and Selena even ended up getting arrested. "Why didn't you come to me?"

"Grandpa, I wasn't avoiding you. It's just that I don't want to frighten Selena. I don't want to add one more thing to the already long list of things that I am hiding from her." Pierre chuckled while wearing a silly look on his face.

While pointing at Pierre, Evan let out a laugh. "Women are the death of men. You're no different from the other regular men, it seems."

"How is Selena? What do you think of your granddaughter-in-law?"

With a nod, Evan replied, "She has the guts to go with the looks. Most importantly, you love her."

"Of course! She's my woman!" Pierre lifted his chin proudly.

Shaking his head, Even stated drily, "You sure look like your mother. How long are you planning to stay here?"

"We're leaving soon."

Despite his astonishment, Evan calmed down by the next instant. "I suppose you're right. You're not safe here after everything that has happened. You even got involved in a murder that you didn't commit, so it's about time that you leave. It's better this way." Although Evan knew he would miss his grandson and the three adorable kids, he was even more concerned for their safety.

"Grandpa, I will bring them to meet you again when I get the chance to do that."

Upon hearing that, Evan gave Pierre a pat on the shoulder before offering him a military salute, which Pierre followed suit. That night, the family went out for dinner again. Pierre informed Selena of his decision to leave, which she agreed to, as she had finally decided to give up on the bracelet after her unforeseen arrest.

While they were dining, Pierre signaled Selena with a look before speaking. "Grandpa, Selena requires your assistance."

"What is it?" Evan immediately glanced at Selena.

Startled, Selena looked at Pierre before hastily explaining, "Oh, the thing is, Grandpa, we came here this time for my mother's bracelet."

With that, she unlocked her phone to open a picture of the bracelet to be shown to Evan. Upon noticing that, Evan took the phone from her. Then, Selena proceeded to give an explanation. "The bracelet used to be among my mother's prized possessions. She had passed away for a long time, so I have always been wanting to replace the bracelet in her stead. Due to some reasons, I didn't get a photo of the remaining bracelet during the previous auction, and I don't have any idea where it is either, so I hope that you will be able to help me to search for them."
