Chapter 460
Leanne's eyes shimmered with unshed tears as she nodded, saying,
"Regardless, I'm grateful you're willing to share it now."
"The family motto my father left us, 'Love in the family brings prosperity.' It was his dying insight, his hope for us. Seeing you three brothers united and the love between you and your spouses, I can't lag as a father."
Maddox was moved. "What we failed to achieve in our generation, you three have accomplished. If your grandparents were watching over us, they could rest easy now."
A knowing smile played on Curtis' lips, an expected yet affirming one.
"Had you mentioned it earlier, I would've just told the guard to let you in."
Maddox lifted his right hand, and his hearty palm hitting Curtis' shoulder echoed twice. "How did I end up with a son like you?"
"Mind the baby," Curtis said with feigned seriousness, covering Leanne's belly with his hand as a warning. "Her brain is already developing, sensing the world around her. You wouldn't want your granddaughter's first words to you to be 'old rascal,' would you?"
The image was indeed beautiful.
Maddox fell silent, withdrawing his hand to his back.
Perhaps it was indeed time to enjoy the joys of being a grandfather. Maddox hadn't been too fond of these sentimental moments when his sons were young, but at the moment, the unborn baby had unmistakably caught his heart.
"After this case wraps up and the kid's here, I won't have to feel all sorry when she asks about her grandparents."
Inside, the warmth was like spring, while outside, the drifting snow seemed to be easing.
As Maddox and Jennifer prepared to leave, Leanne and Curtis walked them to the door.
Watching the two get into the car, Jennifer called out from the half-lowered window. "Take Anne back into the house."
Leanne said before the window rolled up, "Maddox, Jennifer, thank you."
