Julia's expression relaxed. She looked at the person before her, and her gaze was slightly doubtful.

Darren continued, "But after some time, I realized Elisa isn't what I previously thought of her. Moreover, she still treated you well even when I was nasty. She wasn't influenced by me at all and was still respectful. This was what made me change my mind about her."

Julia blinked and kept quiet. She still felt something wasn't right, but she was genuinely happy that Darren had changed his mind.

After that, Darren continued in his calm voice.

"Actually, we got together because we had a good relationship. At first, my family opposed me being with you, but I was willing to break away from them to be with you. I didn't care about what anybody else said. We've been in love all these years, so I know what love feels like. Now, I can see that the brat has feelings for Liz. Since he likes Liz, I naturally can't continue to be in their way. It's great to meet someone you love to spend the rest of your lives together."

Upon seeing Julia's slightly relaxed yet still skeptical expression, Darren sighed. He sat beside Julia and pulled her hand. He seemed to be sorrowful as he spoke. "Most importantly, I don't want to argue with you anymore. More conflict has come up between us because of Elisa. Right now, I only want to spend our remaining years together. Nothing else is important. Our children and grandchildren have their own lives. I won't interfere in anything, but I won't stand in their way anymore. They can do whatever they want or like. Let's just live our lives."

Julia might have found what he said at the beginning strange, but she was suddenly moved when she heard what Darren said in the end.

She knew how much Darren cared about her. Her misgivings vanished after hearing what he had to say. She paused and looked at Darren. "You've really thought it through. You won't obstruct them, go against me, or hate Liz anymore?"

"I won't. Are you reassured yet?" Darren shook his head in exasperation but made a promise to her solemnly.

Darren rarely spoke in that tone, but he must have been sincere since he did. Julia's eyes immediately lit up. She couldn't help but hit Darren's shoulders excitedly like a child. "You finally understand, old man!"

Darren was dumbstruck.
