97 Visiting His Parents (2/2)

She battled everyday like this. As much as she wanted to abandon him like others would, she could not do so because he was the only one whom she called her family and she love Albert unconditionally.

”Yes dear. He will be like him in the future. Come, the food is ready, let's eat.” Rodora ushered them to the dining room.

During this entire time, Lyndon's heart felt like squeezed dry. He felt an intense pain in his chest as he looked at his father in his current state.

His condition was one of the many conditions around the world that until now, has no cure. It is a painful process until death. He wanted to shed tears but he will not let himself wallow with sadness because he needed to be strong. He needed to be strong while facing this all alone.

He knew that his mother is the one who's in great pain. He's still lucky because Misha will be always at his back and will be waiting for him but for his mother, her family was not in this country nor she could easily contact them.

He just patted his mother's back and hugged her to show that he understands her pain. That he's only there to be her support whenever she wanted.

Conrad helped Albert to his seat and placed a table napkin over his lap and under his chin. Aside from forgetting his family members, he's on the point that he often make clatter with his food that's why he needed so much table napkins.

Rodora scooped food for him and help him feed himself as Lyndon picked up his cutleries to start eating his food but his father spoke.

”You know what, Rodora made this all. Her cooking is one of the best.” Albert bragged. Lyndon half-smiled upon hearing this.

”I know. I've tasted her cooking before and it's really delicious.”

”Yes... Yes... We plan on putting up a restaurant but Shane said we can just buy Villa Rosa and made it our own business.” Albert spilled as he ate clumsily. His plate is now full of different food.

”Is that soo?” Lyndon sounded interested.

”Yes but I declined because I know that his father is forcing him to inherit the Lewis businesses but he doesn't want to so I gave him that one, now he's the owner of that place.” he continued to prattle. He looked at his mother and she nodded. It was the truth, Albert wanted them to open a restaurant for her but then, Shane needed to prove to the old man Lewis that he's not interested in the business so, they gave him the place.

The meal ended but Albert still wanted to have a chat with the young man he met today but Conrad and Rodora insisted that he should take his medicine and rest. He couldn't help but grumble even so, he followed his nurse out from the terrace.

Lyndon and Rodora were left in the place while savoring the silence between them. The silence was deafening but to them, they quite enjoyed each other's company.

Lyndon looked at his mother with complex emotion. He wanted to tell her that Leo was not really dead and it was all staged by the organization related to her but there's a part of him saying that it's unnecessary to involve her in this battle.

”Mom... I... I have something to tell you.”
