Cassandra Had It Tough Cecilia finally understood the good intentions behind her granddad’s actions.

She earnestly replied, “Grandpa, don’t worry. I’ll take good care of myself. I can’t promise that I’ll never be deceived, but I assure you I won’t place all my hopes on others.”

Upon hearing her promise, Alphonse finally nodded in agreement.

“Alright, alright.” He patted Cecilia on the shoulder. “Seeing you like this, we can rest easy. Whatever happens in the future, you must tell me and your granny. We may be old, but we’re tough and can handle a bit of trouble.”

“Alright.” Cecilia’s eyes crinkled into a smile.

Alphonse had asked her to call over Nathaniel as well.

Just after managing to eat a bit, Nathaniel hurriedly headed toward Alphonse’s study.
