William seemed as if he had been enchanted, with his mind filled with countless shocks, ultimately culminating

in shame.

Thorne’s love for Thea, as a father, was nothing short of selfless. Thorne was like a candle, completely burning

himself out for Thea.

William was so moved that he couldn't speak for a long time.

“So you didn’t hesitate to send yourself to prison, just to remove the stumbling block for Thea in the end. Silly

child, with your fragile body, how much suffering you must endure in prison?” William's eyes were filled with

tears.

He wiped away his tears with the back of his hand and reproached himself, “I have always been disdainful of you

for having been in prison, but | never thought that you did it for Jade. Why are you so foolish?”

Thorne sighed, “Uncle, | suffered from premature aging. The doctor said my mindset is not good, and my body

metabolism is severely compromised. With the rate at which | am aging, | probably won't live for more than

seven or eight years.”

Tears rolled down William's face. “Theodore, let's go see a doctor. There must be a way to treat it.”

Thorne’s face darkened, “The doctor said it was possible to find ways to delay aging. But even after a few years,

| would still grow white hair and wrinkles. Aging would makelose my ability to take care of myself, and |

would need someone

to assistwith my daily life, even with basic bodily functions. It's such a humiliating way to live... | don’t want

that.”

William choked up and said, “Theodore, Uncle also went through this, actually it’s nothing.”

Thorne, however, said, “I am different from you. Uncle's condition will get better and better. While | can only

become

older and weaker.”

William grabbed the table in agony with both hands, “Why did I have to get this illness? What would Jade do if

she knew you had this disease?”

Thorne’s calm face instantly becflustered, “Uncle, Thea must never find out about this. If she were to know,

the consequences would be unimaginable.”

Over the years, all the efforts | made were to make her happy and worry-free. If she knew my true situation, she

wouldn't be able to bear it. All my efforts would be in vain.

William's eyes turned red. In the past, he always worried about Thorne hurting his precious daughter. Now he felt

ashamed, as Thorne was the one who loved their daughter more than he did.

“Theodore, | promised you not to tell Jade. But what do you want Uncle to do for you? Otherwise, how can my

heart be at ease?” For the first time, William felt an infinite compassion towards Thorne.

“Uncle, fulfill my dream, protect Thea, and | will have no regrets in this lifetime,” Thorne said, each word

resounding with strength.

William's heart was throbbing painfully, and he reached out to press down on his chest with all his strength, just

to barely endure it.

“Okay. | agreed to you.”

“Thank you, uncle.”

“Silly child, Uncle should thank you.” William tightly held Thorne’s hand, tears streaming down his face.

On the other hand, Thorne disregarded life and death. He calmly said, “Uncle, there's no need to feel sorry for

me. Everyone will eventually die. Compared to many others, | consider myself lucky.”

When Thorne said these words, his eyes were deep and he gazed into the distance.

Compared to the past life, in this life, he at least protected her as he watched Thea die tragically but helplessly.

He felt fortunate.

After William and Thorne had talked, his mood never improved again.

In the evening, William went to the market and bought a lot of fresh ingredients. He opened a video tutorial on

his phone and clumsily learned how to make various delicious dishes.

His idea was very simple, he just wanted Thorne to live the rest of his life happily.

When Thea chome, she saw her father sweating profusely in the kitchen. She picked up a tissue and

considerately wiped the sweat off her father’s forehead.

“So attentive, are you asking for a favor from me?” William teased.

Thea asked sneakily, “Dad, could you convey my feelings to Theodore?”

“What do you mean?” William pretended to be clueless.

The daughter's intention was nothing more than to confess her love to Thorne.

He knew that Thorne also loved his daughter immensely.

But two people who love each other cannot be together.

William could not give hope to his daughter.

Thea looked at her father with a gloomy expression.

“Oh, look at my memory. | forgot.” William slapped his thigh, suddenly realizing.

Thea was extremely disappointed, “You could forget such an important thing?”

“Dad is going through menopause. His memory is not good. Jade, Dad will use a notebook next time, | promise it

won't happen again,” William pretended to be busy, holding a spatula in his hand, quickly making noises in the

frying pan.

Thea left reluctantly.

Dad didn’t help her, so she decided to be brave on her own.

She went upstairs and, when passing by Thorne’s room, deliberately stopped. She knocked on the door, and

Thorne almost instantly opened it.

“Is Thea off work?”

Thea suddenly grabbed his hand and coquettishly said, “Theodore, Thea doesn’t want you to leave me. Can't

you just stay?”

Thorne was most afraid of her acting coquettish with him, he had absolutely no resistance to Thea’s

coquettishness.

“Then can | stay a few more days?”

Thea said, “It’s only been a few days, don’t worry.”

“How many more months did you stay?”

Thea shook her head desperately.

Thorne cunningly changed the subject, “Thea, I'm so hungry. Let's go have dinner. Uncle said you've been

working hard, and he wants to make you a big meal to compensate you.”

Thea was indeed naive and easily led by him, “He wasn’t working hard forat all. He felt guilty towards you

and didn’t want to apologize to you, a younger person. So he used this method to express his apology to you.”

Thorne laughed and said, “Uncle is really adorable.”

He truly breathed a sigh of relief in his heart. If Thea had kept pressing him about staying or leaving, he would

have collapsed.

“Theodore, wait forfor a moment.”

Thea put the work folder back in the study and then skipped out, pushing Thorne downstairs.

On the dining table, there was a sumptuous dinner, with various delicacies from different regions, including

aquatic and terrestrial animals, crawling, walking, and flying in the sky, which dazzled the eyes of the onlookers.

“Dad, how c| didn’t know you were such a good cook?” Thea stuck out her tongue and playfully teased her

father.

William had a proud look on his face as he said, “Jade, Dad isn’t bragging. People like us, who are naturally

intelligent, can learn anything quickly. These dishes, as long as we watch the tutorial videos once, we can make

almost all of them.”

Thorne, however, laughed with a particularly meaningful smile.

He looked deeply into Thea’s eyes and sighed, realizing the power of genetics. Because Thea was also someone

who loved to be around the stove, she could also learn to make a variety of dishes. Unfortunately, they looked

good but tasted terrible.

Thorne was certain that the food on William's table was most likely either too salty or tasteless.

“Theodore, Jade, you sit and eat first. Dad will csoon after finishing the last dish.”
