Bab 464: Curing Carter

Robert ignores the sulking Scarlett. Instead, his curiosity prompted him to ask about the progress of Scarlett's relationship with her father, "It seems you already accept him as your father, is it!?" he asked with genuine curiosity.

Scarlett turned her gaze to the street outside. She remained silent for a moment, trying to ease the heaviness in her chest, which was still lingering from discussing her relationship with Roland Gilwynn. Whether it was due to worry or embarrassment, she found herself puzzled.

After a while, she finally opened her mouth, her gaze fixed on Robert. 

"Grandpa, I can't deny that his blood runs through my veins... he is my father. However, why do I still feel awkward around him? I mean... It's difficult for me to express my emotions when I meet him. I feel confused whenever I want to call him 'father' or—" She struggled to find the words, her voice trailing off.
