"But Wayne, that's not something we should worry about anymore."
Violet Don thought for a long time before she chose to speak, "The future of the Bates Family, whether it thrives or collapses, is no longer our concern."
Wayne Don's words got stuck in his throat.
Yes, it has nothing to do with them anymore. With Noah Bates gone, the days of glamour are over. From now on, they just need to forget him and live their lives peacefully.
Wayne pressed his lips together, holding back the words he wanted to say. Then he said to his mom, "Yes, I understand. I was just worried for Grandpa about the future..."
"They will figure it out." Violet told her son decisively, "I won't let you suffer anymore."
Wayne looked at Violet's face, his mind filled with endless thoughts, but he couldn't find the courage to speak them.
