Freed from whatever had held her captive, Tinley glanced at the bears bound in the car before turning her attention to the approaching Richard.
Tinley, excited and not looking back, listened as Richard calmly explained, “Since the three of us didn’t talk before, the two teddy bears we meant to bring turned into six! But they’re all tokens of our love, Now, let’s find a place for them
He gestured towards Yvonne, urging Tinley to notice her boundless energy, convinced that Tinley wouldn’t be able to refuse her.
As anticipated, Tinley requested that Wendy prepare a spacious room designed to resemble a bear park, complete with six large bears and MANTICOS Smaller dolls for added effect
Richard smiled with relief and went to play with Yvonne.
The decoration of the beautiful teddy bear room at the Holmes residence was soon completed. A pink, fluffy carpet covered the floor, and six large teddy bears were really eye–catching, surrounded by many smaller dolls.
Jeremy, who wanted to come to play with Yvonne, stood at the door.
The little girl happily hopped over with her doll and excitedly called him in for fun
Despite Yvonne’s invitation, Jeremy insisted on keeping the room untouched. He knew how much she cherished this pristine, rosy haven, perfecily tailored to her taste, and he wanted to preserve its unique charm
While women like Anna Lawson or Aunt Tinley were allowed to visit and play with Yvonne, men like Jeremy were not permitted, as he adhered to
strict social customs.
Since getting the room, Yvonne rarely played outside with him. Before, she would join him for a walk after dinner, but now she retreated to the little bear room
Jeremy was not the only one who got abandoned. While Richard should have been happy that Yvonne liked his gift, he realized that her excessive fondness for the bears was making her neglect him, leaving him feeling lonely once more.
One day, after lunch, he ended a call with an old friend who had invited him fishing. He then went over to the Holmes residence, where he found Yvonne’s room. He quietly cracked the door open and peered inside.
Seeing his granddaughter peacefully napping on the furry carpet with the little fox, he quietly closed the door, his heart filled with tenderness. Without her by his side, he felt no desire to go anywhere.
Several friends of his had developed a passion for fishing. They invited him on several outings, which he thoroughly enjoyed. Now, whenever their schedules aligned, the group arranged a fishing trip to the lake.
After his initial successes, Richard consistently returned home without catching any fish. Maybe his early luck had faded, but seeing the other angler: reel in catches made him feel a bit envious
He hated being teased, especially on his way home carrying that empty bucket, so he returned, dejected, only to find his granddaughter, Yvonne, waiting for him.
The little girl noticed that her grandfather was in a bad mood and hurried over to ask him what was wrong
Seeking solace, Richard confided in her about his recent streak of bad luck fishing.
The kind little girl thought for a moment before hugging her grandpa’s leg and whispering, “Grandpa, can I go fishing with you next time?”
Richard was distracted and didn’t fully grasp the situation. Taking his granddaughter fishing would be a joy, whether or not he caught anything Just
her sweet face would be enough to lift his spirits.

He agreed, and the next time his friends invited him fishing, he brought his granddaughter along.

Richard, ignoring the jarring laughter directed at him, brought Yvonne over to where he was baiting a book. The little girl squatted beside him, her fingers bruling the bait as sher watched hum prepare the nest

The water churned as countless fish swarmed towards the scattered hair, a spectacle that left Richard staring down in astonishment at the lit beside him.
Her big, round eyes curved into a sweet smile as she looked up at her grandpa. “You’ll definitely catch a fish, Grandpal” she said in her childish
voice.
Richard was deeply moved.
Richard’s success piqued the interest of the other anglers. They were puzzled, having just arrived and with their lines still cast, to see he had already
Landed several fish.
Doubt crept into their minds, This is weird. Richard has always been down on his luck. What happened?
Upon closer inspection, they noticed something different: he had brought his granddaughter. Could his granddaughter be the reason? He’s been bounting alsnit how lucky she ic
The sound of laughter and the little girl’s compliments sparked a twinge of envy in their hearts. They tried to brush it off. “We don’t care, not one bit! But their eyes betrayed their true feelings, sneaking glances towards them.
Just 30 minutes later, Richard called his bodyguard, requesting a larger bucket be brought to his home as the one he had was already full. He looked around, full of pride.
The lile girl next to him kept telling him, “Grandpa, you’re so awesome!”
“Grandpa, I want to eat this fish tonight.
“What a big Bah, Grandpat This is the biggest fish I have ever seen!”
The overflowing harvest, his granddaughter’s cheers, and the envious glances from fellow fishermen filled him with the joy of a successful catch. It was the first time he had experienced this feeling, and it ignited a passion for fishing within him, especially fishing with Yvonne.
