And in the future, no one can know how these two children will develop.
“I didn’t say William doesn’t play well, but the feeling when they both play the piano is different!” Jasper said casually, still immersed in the piano music he had just heard.
At this moment, Brian and Valda have arrived at this table to offer a toast. Grace then took a few children and together with Jason, they returned the toast to the newlyweds.
The triplets followed the previous rehearsal and congratulated the newlyweds, making Valda giggle uncontrollably.
“Brian and Valda, I wish you happiness!” Grace sincerely said.
“Thank you,” Brian said, looking at Grace and understanding her gesture. Then he clinked glasses with
Grace and they drank together.
For so many years, I was obsessed and trapped in the mud of emotions, but in the end, I was saved by another person.
He doesn’t regret loving Grace. Without that love for Grace, he might have missed out on being with
Valda.
The relationship between him and Valda, one could say, was brought about by Grace!
When Brian and Valda finished their drinks at this table and moved on to the next one, Jason looked at
Grace and said, “They will surely be very happy in the future.”
“Yeah, Brian really, really loves Valda,” Grace murmured.
This is the ending she most wants to see!
When Valda fell into the water and couldn’t be found for a year, she thought she would never see this scene again!
Fortunately, Valda has returned!
Grace and Jason sat back down, and Jasper leaned in close to Grace again. He continued with the previous question,
“Mommy, can you help me find that boy?”
“Which boy?” Jason asked with great interest.
So Jasper repeated the incident of hearing the piano music in the hallway and the person running out of the storeroom.
Jason’s eyes flickered with a hint of thoughtfulness, “So, does Jasper really want to find that boy?”
“Mmm, I want to hear him play the piano again,” the little one nodded vigorously.
Jason looked at William standing next to Jasper and asked, “What about William? Do you want Jasper to find that boy?”
William’s body suddenly stiffened and met Jason’s gaze.
In an instant, he felt as though the other person had seen through all of his thoughts.
Every time he was looked at like this by Uncle Reed, he felt like he couldn’t hide anything and felt a heavy sense of oppression.
He certainly doesn’t want Jasper to find that boy, nor does he want her to develop feelings for someone else’s piano and then… develop feelings for that person!
Because… he used to be like this!
If he didn’t have a piano back then, maybe Jasper wouldn’t have been so interested in him!
“So, do you want it or not?” Jason’s voice rang out again.
“I…” William shifted his lips, feeling like all the words were stuck in his throat.
“Of course William wants to find him too!” Jasper interrupted, then turned excitedly to William and said,
“William, when we find that boy, let’s listen to him play the piano together so you can understand what I mean by ‘flavor’! And then we can play the piano together, it’ll be so much fun!”
Jasper’s bright eyes sparkled like stars, and his hopeful expression made William’s uncomfortable feeling grow stronger, as if he would lose her if that boy was found.
But he couldn’t bring himself to say no, because he didn’t want to see her disappointed.
So he could only say, “Um, of course…I also hope we can find him.”
“I knew it!” Jasper raised his chin triumphantly and looked at his dad.
Jason smiled slightly, “Then I’ll find this boy and let him play the piano for Jasper and you all again.”
“Thank you, Dad!” Jasper immediately showed a brilliant smile.
Grace looked at her husband disapprovingly and asked when the nanny took the children to another part of the banquet hall, “Do you really want to help Jasper find that boy?”
“Why not? Since Jasper wants to hear that boy play the piano again, what harm is there in fulfilling our daughter’s small wish?” said Jason.
“But William, he…”
“He just said it earlier, didn’t he? He also hopes to find that boy,” Jason chuckled.
“You clearly know that the child is not genuinely willing!” Grace said. She could even see through
William’s thoughts, and she didn’t believe he couldn’t see it.
“Yes, he wasn’t really willing, but since he said those things to Jasper, he should bear the consequences, shouldn’t he?” Jason said. “If he can’t handle this, then there will only be more things he can’t handle in the future.”
Jasper nodded in agreement, “I understand what you mean. It’s important to take responsibility for our words and actions, even if we don’t really mean them.”
Jason smiled, “Exactly. It’s all about being accountable and honest with ourselves and others.”
Grace sighed, feeling sorry for William, even though his mother was Lily.
The culprit who once framed her and caused her to be imprisoned, but this child is innocent!
Moreover, although this child grew up with Lily, he did not develop any bad thoughts. In fact, he was once bullied because his mother was a criminal.
Grace knows what it feels like to be bullied, so she feels even more sorry for William.
“Alright, as for the children’s affairs, they will solve them on their own in the future. Right now, they are still young, we have to wait for them to be troubled by matters of the heart, at least for another 7-8
years.” Seeing the worried expression on his wife’s face, Jason started to console her.
“Grace said, ‘I hope William and Jasper will be well in the future! As a mother, she realized that the older her children grew, the more she had endless worries.”
Jason didn’t say much. For him, the only things that mattered were Grace and their children. As for
William, he was actually insignificant to him.
At first, the Reed family took in William simply because Jasper liked him. To William, he was nothing more than Jasper’s toy.
So, naturally, he wouldn’t care about what will happen to a toy in the future.
He just wants his daughter to be well and happy!
If Jasper ends up liking William in the future, then no matter what, he will help his daughter get him! If
Jasper doesn’t like William, then he naturally has a way to make William lose interest!
After the wedding reception, Philip and William returned to their hotel.
Philip suddenly said, “I heard that your uncle Reed is going to help Jasper find a boy who can play the piano well, is that true?”
William’s small body suddenly stiffened.
“Do you want Jasper to find that boy?” Philip asked.
William tightly pursed his lips and looked at his father, but didn’t answer immediately.
Philip said, “William, if you really want Jasper to find that boy, then I won’t interfere. Uncle Reed won’t take long to find him. But if you don’t want that boy to be found, then I can intervene and end this matter here.”
William was surprised and looked at his father.
“What’s wrong?” Philip raised his eyebrows.
After a while, William asked, “Why?”
“Why am I willing to do this?” Philip raised his hand and touched his son’s head. “Because you are my son, and as a father, I naturally want my son to be happy. So if you don’t want it, I can make sure that boy won’t be found by the Reed family.”
William blinked and Philip continued, “When I brought you back to the Barlow family, I told you that if you just followed Jasper, you might never get what you want.
The more precious something is, the more it requires matching strength!”
After a pause, he smiled faintly, “Just like now, I have the ability to make sure that the person you don’t want to see won’t appear in front of Jasper.””
William’s beautiful black eyes seemed to understand something.
After a moment, he shook his head and said, “No need. If Jasper really wants to find that person, then let her find them on her own.”
He didn’t want to see disappointment in Jasper’s eyes. He hoped she could be happy, even though he would be scared, worried, nervous… and afraid that if she really fell in love with the person’s piano and also considered that person important, what should he do…
But when she thinks about the anticipation in her eyes today, she doesn’t want to do something she doesn’t like.
“Are you really sure about this?” Philip asked seriously.
“Mmm, I’ve made up my mind,” William nodded earnestly.
“Since you have made up your mind, you will have to bear the consequences of your decisions in the future, no matter what happens. Do you understand? Don’t regret the decision you made today!” Philip sighed and said, “You should know that every decision you make now may affect your future.”
William’s hand, which was hanging by his side, slowly tightened into a small fist. “I understand, and I won’t regret it!”
Because he wanted to see Jasper’s smile, this was more important than anything else!
Philip said, “Okay, then let the Reed family find that boy!”
Since the son has made this decision, the father will no longer intervene. He only hopes that in the future, William will not regret the decision he made today.
After the wedding reception, Valda was taken back to the villa that had been set up as their new home.
Of course, a housewarming party was also held. After everyone had left, only Valda and Brian were left in the bedroom of their new house.
“You must be tired,” said Brian.
“Somewhat,” Valda replied. During the busy and bustling wedding today, she didn’t feel it much. But now that everything has suddenly quieted down, a sense of exhaustion has slowly crept up on her.
