After a brief pause, Amara agreed to his suggestion.
They were about to leave when they heard footsteps approaching from upstairs.
Lucia was helping Waldo downstairs.
Waldo shifted his gaze to Amara, who immediately lowered her head.
Witnessing this, Matthew stepped forward, his voice calm as he addressed his grandfather.
“Grandpa, my mother has come to Seamarsh, and I’ve brought her here to visit you.”
Waldo, looking coldly at Amara, asked in a chilly and stern tone, “Have you thought it through now? Are you willing to come back to the Clark family?”
Amara was startled by Waldo’s directness, raising her head in shock.

Unmoved by her reaction, Waldo continued, “If you wish to remarry in the future, Lucia and I will choose a suitable match for you. We won’t let you make another mistake and cause trouble for Matthew.”
“Grandpa…” Matthew interjected, dissatisfied with his words.
Bowing slightly, Amara interrupted, “I know I made mistakes this time.
I came to see both of you and to apologize for the things I did.”
She paused, gathering her thoughts before speaking again.
“My misjudgment brought trouble to the Clark family and involved Matthew.
I’ll be more careful in the future. I appreciate your kindness, but I still don’t want to go back to the Clark family.”
“What do you mean?” Waldo’s tone sharpened instantly.

“If you’re not willing to come back, then leave and don’t return. This family doesn’t welcome outsiders.”
With that, he started coughing heavily.
Lucia rushed to help him catch his breath, saying soothingly, “Don’t get upset now. Your health has just improved a bit. Let’s calm down and talk properly.”
“I’m sorry,” Amara said, bowing to Waldo and Lucia.
“Take care of yourselves. I’ll leave now.”
“Mom!” Matthew moved to follow her.
Waldo called out sternly, “Matthew, we need to talk.”
Waldo wanted a word with Matthew, so Amara turned to him and suggested, “Matthew, you stay. I can head back on my own.”
