Reborn as the Sweetheart of a Paranoid Boss-Chapter 212: The Chosen Bride Will Ultimately Meet the God
He suddenly sighed.
"I suppose you know the purpose of my visit this time."
Miles Goodman nodded slightly, his gaze turning somber.
"I didn’t expect Selena Kensington to still meet him. Originally I thought... alas."
Timothy Jennings sighed again, clearly unable to continue.
"Back then, everything the Jennings family did was to free Selena from her original fate, but I don’t understand why you still let her grow up in Aethelgard."
This was something Miles Goodman could not comprehend.
He was brought back and raised by the Jennings family when he was eight, ten years ago when he was fifteen.
He left the Jennings family on the eve of the incident.
So he still couldn’t understand some of the Jennings family’s actions.
Obviously wanting Selena Kensington to escape her predestined fate, wouldn’t it have been better to just let her stay away from Aethelgard?
Yet they allowed Selena Kensington to grow up in Aethelgard.
Timothy Jennings drifted off in thought, stating calmly, "Do you think we didn’t want to? But we couldn’t afford to gamble. We didn’t dare."
"Southern Rivers, Northern Goodman—the Goodman family worships the mandate of Heaven and the balance of yin and yang, while the Jennings family... believes in karma."
"When the time isn’t right, causes don’t form. Causes not tied to conditions, conditions without destiny—it’s just meant to be this way."
"What seeds are sown, such fruits are reaped. Selena’s cause was him."
"If we forcibly intervene to separate the cause and effect, the result may be even more unimaginable."
Timothy Jennings stated.
Miles Goodman was silent. 𝐟𝗿𝐞𝚎𝚠𝐞𝚋𝕟𝐨𝚟𝐞𝕝.𝕔𝕠𝚖
This had been the pain of the Jennings family for so long, perhaps.
Clearly their family’s sins, but in the end, Selena Kensington was to bear them.
They wanted to help her escape her predestined fate, yet cautiously worried about the cycle of karma.
"But in the end, they still met."
Ten years had passed, and the Jennings family cautiously guarded this secret, not disturbing Selena Kensington’s growth, thinking it could lighten their guilt.
However, they still met in the end.
Just like how birds flock to the woods, fishes to the sea...
The chosen bride would eventually meet the God.
Timothy Jennings said no more.
Over the vast reaches of time, past glories and prosperity were long lost in the river of history.
The present era, when Fell Beasts roamed and the era of burgeoning Heavenly Masters has dwindled due to changes in time and environment, has gradually disappeared from the world, leaving behind only mysterious and magnificent legends.
"How is Grandma doing?"
Miles Goodman changed the subject.
The only great figure left in the Jennings family is now the Jennings Grandmother, as few other descendants have the Heavenly Master Bloodline for cultivation.
Currently, Miles Goodman and Timothy Jennings are among the last of those with Heavenly Master Bloodline.
Initially, Selena Kensington was born with the Heavenly Master Bloodline, but later... the Jennings family was forced to seal her Heavenly Master Bloodline.
Life is unpredictable.
"Grandma is okay, you’ve been out for so long you should go back to visit her."
Timothy Jennings nodded.
Miles Goodman gave a bitter smile, "You know my situation..."
Timothy Jennings suddenly interrupted him, "Miles, it’s been a long time since that incident, you shouldn’t blame yourself anymore..."
"When there’s time, take me to pay respects at the Goodman family shrine."
Miles Goodman paused, then nodded.
"It’s not far behind."
The place he had chosen at the time was where the Goodman family had once stationed themselves.
A place with excellent feng shui, secluded and tranquil, perfect for the Goodman family to live in seclusion.
Eight years ago, when Miles Goodman left the Jennings family and returned to Aethelgard, it was for redemption.
To guard... the Goodman family shrine.
"Alright, I have matters to attend to, I’m leaving first. Can I borrow your car?"
After saying this, Timothy Jennings walked out of Miles Goodman’s psychological clinic.
