“Please wait a moment.”
“Mrs. Keaton, it’s Ms. Reece.” Savion handed Melina the phone while she was having
her physiotherapy.
“What’s the matter?” Melina said as she took the phone. “Hello, Julie.”
Julianna hesitated for a few seconds and said bluntly, “Grandma, I… want to bring the
children back.”
“They are fine here. You don’t have to worry.”
“Grandma, I heard that you want to change their surname. Is that true?” Julianna asked
tentatively.
“It’s true. After all, they are from the Keaton family. How can we let them have the
surname Reece?”
“Grandma, I want to bring the children back. As for changing their surname, we can talk
about it later…”
Before Julianna could finish her words, Melina directly refused, “That’s impossible. They
are from the Keaton family. I can’t let them live outside.”
“Grandma, they are my children.”
“Julianna, thank you very much for giving birth to the three children of the Keaton family.
“There are not many members in our family. Now that we have these three children, they
are the future of our family.
“Although you are excellent, you lack experience in educating children. If the children
stay in the Keaton’s house, we can provide the best environment for them to grow.”
When Julianna heard this, she became even more anxious. “Grandma, you can’t do this.
No matter what, the three children are
mine.
“I will educate them well. You don’t have to worry about this. If you want to see the
children, I will ask them to see you at any
time.
“But you can’t keep them in the Keaton’s house for a long period, and you can’t change
their surname either.”
Melina said with a hint of contempt over the phone, “Julie, I admit that you are their
mother. You can also come to the
Keaton’s house to visit the children at any time.
“However, the children can not stay with you. They are the future heirs of the Keaton
family. If the children stay in the
Keaton’s house, we can provide the best environment for them to grow.”
“Grandma, you can’t make such a decision…”

“Edwin.”

Edwin frowned slightly when he heard that. “Alright. I also have something to talk to you
about.”
“Well, come back early tonight.”
“Okay.”
It was six o’clock in the evening.
Edwin returned to the Keaton’s house punctually.
“Grandma, I’m back”
“Edwin, you’re back.” Melina sat in her wheelchair, her face slightly rosy.
It looked like she was energetic.
Edwin looked around the living room and did not see the two children. He asked
doubtfully, “Grandma, where are the
children?”
“They’re upstairs. I’ve asked Savion to take care of them.”
Edwin paused for a moment, then said with a smile, “Grandma, I heard that you want to
change the surname of the children?”
“Yes, they are the descendants of the Keaton family. They must have the surname
Keaton.”
When Edwin heard this, he sat down beside Melina and held her hand. “Grandma, they
are the children of the Keaton family.
“But Julianna has always been the one taking care of them and raising them..
“Before doing this, should we discuss it with Julianna?
“Now that you suddenly made this decision, she could not accept it for the time being.”
When Melina heard this, she said angrily, “She has no choice but to accept.
“She was lucky enough to give birth to the children. It’s been four years, but she still
refused to let the children return to the Keaton family. She even kept hiding the truth and
almost made me regret it for the rest of my life.
“Because of this, I am very angry. It is impossible to let her continue to raise the
children.”
After Melina finished speaking, she was so angry that she kept coughing.
Edwin patted Melina’s back gently to calm her down. Then he continued, “Grandma, no
matter what, you have to respect her. Let me talk to her about this bit by bit.”
“Edwin, you don’t have to worry about this matter. Let me handle it.
“If she has any complaints, let her negotiate with me in person.”
Edwin frowned when he heard this.
Melina was aggressive when she was young, and when she got older, it was inevitable
that she would be more stubborn.
If it was anything else, Edwin would probably be able to convince her, but regarding the
Keaton family’s descendants, Melina would not give in.
Edwin was the only son in the Keaton family, and his father died young. Therefore,
Melina wanted Edwin to make the Keaton family thrive.
Now that Melina finally had two great–grandsons. She treated them as the apple of her
eye. How could she allow anyone to take them away?
With a sigh, Edwin did not dare to persuade Melina anymore.
Melina was not in good health, so he could not go against her wishes.
