My Substitute CEO Bride romance Capítulo 946

Everyone fell silent as they looked at the pain on Philix’s face.

Who would have thought that the tough man in charge of the North Army would have a soft side too?

The girl at the convenience store rested her face in both her hands and said, “I don’t think feelings are that complicated. If you cherish the present moment, you won’t be left with so many regrets!”

Stellar chuckled. “It seems like you’re still a kid.”

“What’s wrong with being a kid? Do kids not have feelings?” the girl retorted in disapproval.

Stellar was surprised. He did not expect an underaged brat to refute him. He disregarded her words, thinking that it was just a childish statement.

“I think that the little girl is right. Cherishing the present is how we avoid regrets. If Wolf had cherished those final moments, he could have at least seen the birth of his own child.”

Felicity had not gotten over the story, and her eyes were still teary.

Stellar remained silent. There was a complicated look in his eyes as if he was contemplating what Felicity meant.

It also seemed like he was reminiscing about his long-buried emotions.

Half an hour later, the rain stopped and the sky cleared up.

The ground was covered with Nash’s and Philix’s cigarette butts.

“The rain stopped. Let’s go!”

Philix stamped out the cigarette butt he just threw on the ground and brushed off the ash that fell on his windbreaker as he stood up.

…

At the entrance of Snyder Estate, only Santiago and Caleb, who was holding his child, were standing outside.

Santiago looked a little dazed, seemingly in deep thought.

Caleb noticed that his grandfather was not looking as excited as he should be, so he could not help but ask, “Grandpa, shouldn’t you be happy that the North Warden is coming to our house? Why do you look so glum?”

Santiago shook his head and said, “It’s not your place to ask!”

Caleb gulped and dared not say a word more.

Soon after, Santiago’s seven-seater bulletproof car stopped at the entrance.

Now that it was the Snyder family’s turn to welcome him, only Santiago and Caleb came out to greet him.

If word got out, people might even think that the Snyder family loathed the North Warden!

Santiago looked apologetic. As soon as he was about to say something, Philix said, “I came to Sagen on such short notice, so there’s no need to make a big fuss. Just treat me like any other guest!”

Caleb carefully looked at Philix and was amazed at how down-to-earth he was.

He could not help but feel ashamed about how much of an asshole he was in the past.

Philix glanced at the child in Caleb’s arms and smiled. “Is this Roland’s grandson?”

Caleb looked at Philix in shock. “North Warden, do you know my father?”

He was wondering whether Philix was actually related to the Snyder family.

Philix did not answer his question directly but smiled. “Your father should be around the same age as me, yet he’s already a grandfather. I’m jealous!”

Behind him, Nash’s face turned red.
