Love is the Sunshine

Chapter 548 Successor (Part One)

Hearing him say that, Carla nodded her head, feeling quite contented.

"I think that's a great idea. And in doing so, they won't feel so helpless and alone. I feel sorry for those

poor children!" Carla remarked.

She had no idea what happened to them after she saved them. The two kids were being raised solely

by their mother. Their father had become so addicted to gambling that no one had any clue as to where

he could be found after getting divorced with his wife.

For that reason, when their mother passed away, the two of them no longer had anyone else to turn to.

"Come over here, Sally. Let me introduce you to your father's grandfather whom you're going to call

great-grandfather. Go on and say hello to great-grandfather," Carla said.

She held her in her arms as she explained who this person was to Sally.

Glancing at Terence, and then at Nicholas, Sally found the situation a bit confusing. Yesterday, she had

just met her grandfather, and now she found out she had a great-grandfather who was, in turn, her

daddy's grandfather...

After thinking about it for a while, she gave up trying to figure it out as she got distracted by the

wheelchair Nicholas was sitting on.

"Great-grandfather, is it okay if I take a look at your wheelchair? It looks like fun. Why does it have

wheels? Can they actually move?" Sally innocently asked.

"Ho-ho, yes, they can move indeed. Come, let great-grandfather show you how it works..."

As he grinned from ear to ear, Nicholas turned the wheels to move forward.

With curiosity written all over her face, Sally watched him and followed him around.

Caressing Carla's shoulder ever so slightly, Terence couldn't be any happier when he saw Grandpa

Nicholas having the time of his life in this little family reunion. It seemed that Nicholas had been feeling

blue all this time, so he truly enjoyed having Sally around to play with him, much like a little kid.

"You're so awesome, great-grandpa!" Sally cheered him on as he moved around.

"By the way, great-grandpa, my uncle visited us yesterday. I really like him a lot because he is also so

awesome just like you. And he also knows Taekwondo and plays basketball!"

Sally commented as Nicholas held her. Naturally, kids felt much closer to their relatives compared to

other people.

"Wow, that sounds great! You know what, not to brag or anything, but when I was young, I was quite

brilliant as well. I served in the army and laid waste to a lot of enemies in the battlefield," Nicholas told

Sally about his past, watching the lovely little girl with a big smile on his face.

The best thing he ever could have wished for had finally been fulfilled.

However, there was just one other thing he really wanted...

"Really? Wow! Can you please tell me more, great-grandpa?" Hearing him say that seemed to have This text is © NôvelDrama/.Org.

piqued Sally's interest quite a bit. At that moment, she began thinking that her great-grandpa was such

an amazing man.

Seeing her great-grandchild's reaction, Nicholas couldn't help but smile and heaved a heavy sigh,

feeling somewhat regretful. What a pity it was that there was no one who would take over his mantle if

he died right now.

He had a total of 3 grandsons, among whom Ahern seemed so hopeless while Jimmy simply sought

ease and comfort. Terence was supposed to be the only one who showed potential, but on one hand,

he was the one who had to take over the family business; on the other hand, he had never been fond

of fighting or killing.

'If I die, the An family is bound to lose its backing in the military, ' Nicholas sighed, feeling so dejected.

"Terence, come here,"

Nicholas called Terence, gesturing for him to come closer.

"What's the matter, grandpa?" Terence sprung up from his seat and walked toward him.

"Terence, were you able to find the right person among the young ones in the An family? Is there

anyone who has what it takes to serve in the army?"

With his eyebrows deeply knit, Nicholas asked in a serious tone.

Feeling a bit reluctant to give him an answer, Terence shook his head in response.

"I still haven't found one yet. Some of them are already at just the right age, but all of them have

already gotten so used to leading such a comfortable life that letting them have a rough time in the

army would already be out of the question. Even if we were to send them there, I can say for certain

that we would have to make use of our connections to ensure they could get away from any harsh

treatment, so I think that would just defeat the purpose,"

Terence sighed and admitted the truth.

Holding Sally's hand, Carla was about to walk toward them, but she ultimately decided not to as she

didn't want to get in the way of their conversation.

"Well, what about other ones who are not directly from the An family? Perhaps someone who's

upstanding and dependable? Do you happen to know anyone like that?" Nicholas went on and asked.

He wanted to make the most of the time he had left, so he was desperate to find someone to follow his

footsteps.

For as long as he could find someone who was right for the position, he would definitely send him to

the army and use the connections that he had. He had faith that the person he would choose was

bound to make some accomplishments.

But above all else, the reason he was so eager to find someone was because he didn't want the An

family to lose its connection with the army.

"Mummy, when is uncle Sean going to come visit us again?"

Sally asked from out of the blue as Carla grabbed her to walk away from the other two. It was just

yesterday that she met Sean, so the memory of playing with him was still so fresh in her

mind.
