NovelStartChapter 350 Grandpa Clemens at the Doorstep "Mommy, Mommy..." Noah's call snapped Sadie out of her reverie.
Coming back to the present, she spoke with guilt, "It's all Mommy's fault. If I hadn't been late, Nathan wouldn't have been in that accident, and you kids wouldn't have suffered so much." "Don't say that, Mommy," Noah said, reaching out to touch Sadie's face with a comforting gesture. "You're working hard and taking great care of us. We should always be here assisting you." "Yeah, Noah's right," Nathan added, counting on his fingers with a sheepish look. "If I hadn't gone chasing after a cat in the woods, I wouldn't have been caught in the accident." "It's my fault, I was the one who spotted the cat." Mia pouted, her chubby cheeks forming cute dimples.

"Now, let's discuss whether we should accept Grandpa's dinner invitation for tonight," Sadie gently proposed, though she thought to herself that Grandpa Clemens was actually their great-grandpa, a generation away. "Mommy, I wish to go there," Mia said timidly, raising her little hand. "Grandpa is really nice to us. I like him!" too," Nathan quickly agreed. "I like Grandpa, and I promised him I'd go." "Mommy, are you worried about Grandpa's grandson causing trouble?" Noah caught on, asking considerately. "He's your boss, right?" Sadie paused before realizing, "Yes, he's my boss." Noah thought for a moment and said earnestly, "He looks kind of fierce, but when he brought us hlast night, he was decent enough, and he didn't do anything to hurt us." "He brought you back home?" Sadie was surprised. The children nodded in agreement.
Images of Micah interacting with the kids filled Sadie's mind. He was probably as stone-faced as usual, the epitof unapproachability.
With that kind of demeanor, it would be odd if the kids weren't afraid of him.
"Mommy, Grandpa's been nice to us. We really like him," Noah said empathetically. "But if you are unwilling to see us get too close to your boss's grandpa, then we won't go." Hearing those words, Nathan and Mia both hung their heads in dejection.

"Ding-dong!" Before Sadie could finish, the sudden sound of the doorbell interrupted her, followed by an excited voice. "Grandpa Clemens, you're here!" Hearing this, Sadie's face turned paled. "Oh no, Grandpa Clemens actually showed up at our doorstep!" she thought.
If they ran into each other now, it would be a disaster.
"I'm here to pick up the kids, and I'd also like to meet their mother and offer an apology in person," Grandpa Clemens said.
