The two of them chatted for quite a while before Estelle glanced at the time and got up, saying,
“Grandpa, you should go to sleep. I’m gonna check on the flowers.”

“Okay, then. Goodnight, grandpa!” Estelle said warmly, accompanied by a smile.
“Go ahead!” Old Mr. Jarvis responded.
Watching Estelle leave, he slowly walked to his bedroom, shaking his head and chuckling as the

Approaching the person, she recognized it was Old Wade, who was asleep against a pillar with a
thermos in his arms.

over the phone, but he misses you and waits for your return.”
Estelle’s eyes filled with tears. “Yes! Both you and Old Mr. Jarvis must take care of yourselves.”

He never married his whole life, always serving Old Mr. Jarvis and watching over the Jarvis family.

family.
To Estelle, Old Wade and Old Mr. Jarvis were just like her grandfathers
Carrying the thermos, she headed to the garden where the Moonflowers had just bloomed, their sweet
