Chapter 1819 Be His Son Instead
Jonathan didn''t even need to ask-he already knew what good news George was referring to. "Great-grandpa, are you trying to tell me I''m going to have a little brother or sister?"
George lookedpletely taken aback. "Oh dear, Jon, how did you figure that out?" He had only heard about it today from Vivian and Zachary. The two of them had deliberately kept it a secret from him, saying they wanted to surprise him.
"I''m just guessing," Jonathan replied, choosing not to reveal the truth. If he admitted he had known all along, the old man would certainly scold him for keeping secrets.
George didn''t think much of it and simplyughed. "Young minds are sharp these days. You really are clever, Jon. Ms. Kennedy is pregnant-she''s already two months along."
"Congrattions, Great-grandpa! You''ll finally get to hold your great-grandchild," Jonathan said sincerely.
George let out a heartyugh. "No matter what, you''re still my great-grandchild. You all mean the same to me."
Jonathan nodded. He knew George would never treat him differently just because he had a biological great-grandchild now.
"When will you being back? I miss you," George asked again.
Jonathan could tell that George truly did miss him. Having a child around made the house more lively, and Jonathan had always been the bright spark in the family. Sometimes, George treated him like a great-grandson, and other times, more like a friend.
"I guess I''lle back tomorrow," Jonathan decided.
He was also missing George. After all,pared to him, his younger brother Elliot was still far too na?ve.
Jonathan spent a lot of time with George-not just ying chess but also learning about business. He had picked up many valuable strategies that would definitely help him in the future.
"All right, all right! I''lle pick you up tomorrow."
"No need, Great-grandpa. I cane back from kindergarten on my own. Just send the driver to pick me up."
"All right," George agreed, nodding. His health wasn''t the best these days, and he couldn''t be running around too much.
Just today, when Vivian and Zachary had given him the surprise news, his heart had nearly skipped a beat. Thankfully, he hadn''t had a sudden heart attack, or what was supposed to be a joyful asion would have turned into a disaster.
After finishing his call with George, Jonathan saw Elliot approaching. "Jonathan, you''re heading to the Sinir residence again? You might as well just be their son," Elliot teased.
Jonathan shot him a look. "Mr. Zachary is about to be a dad-he doesn''t need me to act as his son. Besides-"
He turned to look at Nathaniel, who stood not far away with a cold expression. "You want me to be Mr. Zachary''s son, but have you even considered what our dad might think?"
Elliot froze for a moment.
Before he could respond, Nathaniel suddenly grabbed him from behind and lifted him up. "Watch what you say next time."
After a brief struggle, Nathaniel finally let him go. "All right, all right! I get it! I won''t bber anymore, Dad, you''re going to ruin my clothes," Elliot grumbled.
The house was filled withughter and warmth. That evening, when Cecilia and the others returned home, they were greeted by this heartwarming scene.
Jonathan told her that after school tomorrow, he would be heading to George''s house. Cecilia reminded him, "Ms. Kennedy is pregnant now, so make sure you behave yourself and don''t give her any trouble, all right?"
Jonathan sighed softly. "Mommy, do you really think I''m the kind of kid who causes trouble?"
Cecilia hesitated he had a point. Compared to Jonathan, Vivian seemed more like a child.
An idea came to her, and she quickly added, "Jonathan, just keep an eye on Ms. Kennedy, okay? Make sure she doesn''t move around too much. She''s pregnant now and needs to be careful for the baby''s sake.
