Chapter 369: Chapter 369: Reunion with Simon Carrington (6)

"Axel, say hi, this is Uncle Simon." Carolline Ruiz held Axel’s hand, introduced him, and then introduced Simon Carrington, "Simon, this is my son, his name is Axel, and he’s almost six years old."

"Uncle Simon, hello. Mom, I’m going to wash my hands first. Where’s Dad? Dad just called and said he’d be back for dinner." Axel suddenly remembered that everyone else had returned, dinner was about to start, and his father had not come back yet.

As soon as the word "Dad" was mentioned, Master Ruiz’s face changed immediately, and he didn’t even care about dinner anymore, "What Dad? Has Axel’s father been found?"

Back then, no matter how much they asked Carolline, she always avoided discussing Axel’s father, insisting that it was her mistake and that she had disgraced the Ruiz Family. She asked her grandfather not to bother finding out who Axel’s father was and not to ask questions.

At that time, he was really mad at the three of them. Although he didn’t particularly like Carolline and didn’t see her as the gem of the Ruiz family, she was Henry Ruiz’s daughter, who he acknowledged as his granddaughter.

How could he not like her at all? He was a little strict with her, hoping that she would take fewer detours in the future. As it turned out, she not only took detours, but she was also stubborn and foolish.

Carolline had a child with a man of unknown status and got her parents to help her take care of him for so many years. She didn’t say a word about this grievance, which really made him angry with the whole family, including Henry Ruiz.

This was the first time in many years that he had taken the initiative to come to his eldest son’s home. If it weren’t for Simon Carrington pleading with him, he wouldn’t want to show up.

Now, Simon’s request didn’t seem so important anymore. He felt it was more important to see who on earth Axel’s father was, with Carolline protecting him and Henry Ruiz and Emily Hill silently watching their daughter endure insults.

"It’s not that he’s been found, he’s always been around, just too busy before, but now he’s back," Henry Ruiz said with a smile. It’s a long story, so he decided to just mention it briefly.

"You’ve all kept this secret quite well," Master Ruiz snorted coldly.

Carolline bowed her head, not daring to face her grandfather’s stern gaze. This matter was indeed their fault, and she couldn’t say anything in front of her grandfather.

"I’m sorry, Grandpa, he will apologize to you with a couple of drinks later," Carolline approached him with a conciliatory tone.

"He abandoned you and your son for so many years, and you forgave him so easily. No wonder people are reluctant to have daughters," Master Ruiz stared at Carolline, who had no backbone, unlike the daughters of the Ruiz family.

Take Jasmine Ruiz, for example. Although she was also a girl in the Ruiz family, she had much more dignity than Carolline. Christopher Lopez may have been from an elite background in Kyoto, but in front of Jasmine Ruiz, he was an obedient little white rabbit. Now, this was the demeanor a girl from the Ruiz Family should have.

Carolline, on the other hand, was so weak that she allowed a man to come and go as he pleased, finding solace elsewhere without any regard for her own opinions. It really annoyed him.

"No, Great Grandpa, Dad didn’t abandon me and Mom. He was busy with his career. Look, as soon as he got back, he didn’t leave and even promised me and Mom that he’d never leave us again." Axel defended his father. His father’s family treasured him, but his great-grandfather never treated him kindly and always criticized his mother and grandmother, which he disliked.

"What do you know? The adult world is none of your business, you little brat," Master Ruiz glared at Axel, even more annoyed. Although Axel was the eldest grandchild of the current Ruiz generation, he still had that ’outsider’ status after all.
