Chapter 915
Brandon moseyed over to Oliver's place after hearing he was by the pond, so that's where he headed.
Brandon and Bennett strolled up to the pond, only to catch Oliver locking lips with Josefina. The two older gentlemen stood there, momentarily stunned, exchanging glances before deciding it was best to leave. They made their way out of the garden, walking slowly and steadily, while Brandon was so excited he could barely walk straight.
Bennett steadied him, "Easy, sir. Don't get too excited. Your health is what matters."
"You're right, Bennett. I've got to take care of myself. I want to stick around long enough to hold my great-grandkids, whether they're boys or girls, just as long as they're healthy!"
Bennett chuckled at Brandon's joy. "Sir, congratulations are in order. You're about to be a great-grandfather."
“Bennett, congrats to you too. You're going to be a granddad."
They shared a warm smile, both filled with emotion. Just then, the butler approached.
Noticing they hadn't gone to the garden, he respectfully asked, “Sir, have you seen the young master?"
"Tell everyone to steer clear of the garden,” Brandon instructed.
The butler was curious, but he didn't question it. What was happening in the garden? Why the lockdown? Even without knowing the reason, he relayed the message: no one was to go near the garden, or else!
With instructions given, Brandon settled into the living room for some tea. "Bennett, the tea's a bit sweet today, but quite nice."
Bennett laughed, "Sir, it's your good mood making the tea taste sweet.”
"If only I could have tea this sweet every day, that'd be something." With that thought, Brandon let out a hearty laugh. The good news had him beaming.
When Oliver and Josefina came back to the living room, Josefina was taken aback to see Brandon there. He greeted her warmly, "Josie, I just brewed some tea. Join us for a cup."
She sat down, and Oliver handed her a cup. "Grandpa, what brings you here?" Oliver asked quietly.
"I realized it's been ages since I brought Josie a gift. I've got some things ready but wasn't sure if they re enough. I brought a fist for you to check. We can't have Josie feeling left out."
Bennett pulled out a list filled with dense writing. Josefina was puzzled. Why was everyone so keen on showering her with gifts?
She tried to decline, "Grandpa Brandon, no more gifts, please.
Kania just dropped off a bunch, and
I'm figuring out what to get her in return. My rooms bursting at the seams."
"What? Kania gave you gifts?" Brandon asked.
Josefina explained, “I helped Kania, and she wanted to cover my medical expenses.
I didn't accept, so she gave me gifts instead."
Brandon was adamant, "Well, I can't let her outdo me. I need to give you more!"
Josefina was at a loss. She'd hoped to dissuade him from giving more gifts, but he was determined.
"Grandpa Brandon, really, I don't need anything else. No more gifts, please."
“Give, and give more," Oliver chimed in with a grin.
Josefina elbowed Oliver, signaling him to stop. Oliver pretended not to notice and continued, "Grandpa, let's get these gifts to her. And if there's anything else, handle it
