“Your grandpa misses you,” he replied after
@ pause.
“Grandpa misses me?” Niles was a bit confused
“Yes. Moreover, one of his comrades-in-arms passed away several days ago. He’s been really sad the last few days, and I think if you cback, you can talk to him and cheer him up.” Baldwin felt a bit bad lying to his son like that, but he had no choice.
“No problem! I’LL make sure my dear grandpa will Laugh again. Wait for me. I’ll be there soon. Just let me finish my classes.” The property ownership certificate had made Niles’ day. He was so happy he could even make his icy brother grin, let alone his grandpa.

The shriek of a car brake pierced the serenity in the air after about an hour. Niles got out of the car, whistling a peaceful tune.
When he walked into the living room, only Cecelia was there.
“Son, you are back,” she said in her usual tone, with no betrayal in her voice, though it was taking quite a toll on her.
“Yes, Mom. It’s good to see you! Are you happy to see me?” Niles pecked her on the cheek. He really was in a good mood.
Cecelia was amused.
“Okay. Now go upstairs. Your grandpa is waiting.”
“Gladly!” Niles jogged towards the stairs.
She watched him.

“He is in the study,” she called out behind her son.
“Okey-dokey, dear mummy!” Niles climbed the stairs, still humming a song.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThe second he was out of sight, Cecelia took her handbag and left the house. She couldn’t bear to watch what was to follow and what was more, she knew Keith very well. If anyone tried to put in a good word for
Niles, he would punish him even more harshly.
She was afraid that if she stayed, her maternal instincts would overwhelm her sense and compel her to stop Keith from punishing her son.
In this regard, Baldwin didn’t have any problems. He was firmer and more composed than his wife. Even if he had to listen to his son beg pitifully in front of him, he wouldn’t go soft.
The second floor was very quiet, much like the silence before a storm.
Oblivious of the upcoming danger, Niles pushed open the door to the study with a beaming face.
“My dear, dear grandpa, I’m back! I missed you so much!” he greeted
Keith in the scheerful tone as before.
“Kneel!” the old man demanded in a harsh voice that was in sharp contrast to Niles’ happy and ecstatic tone.
