Trantor:549690339
Only after the wound on Kevin rk’s mouth had fully healed did he bring Charles Amos home on Tuesday morning to visit his elderly father.
So his father wouldn’t see him in an awkward situation.<div>
What he didn’t know was that there was a guest at home, talking about Charles Amos.
Bonnie Maxwell arrived more than nine o’clock, still bringing lots of things with her.
Because when she was young, Tom Wayne saved her life, and she studied acupuncture and traditional medicine with him, so she visited rk Manor very frequently.
Although nine out of ten times she wouldn’t bump into Kevin rk, and the one time she did, he would say “Hmm” to her at most.
But she still came, and got along well with Mr. & Mrs. rk.
The rk family naturally knew her intentions, but they never interfered with the affairs of the young people.
At most, they would urge them to find a partner soon.
So they never got too close to Bonnie Maxwell, just stayed at the level of elders and juniors rtionships.
They always managed this rtionship very well.
“ra, I heard that you’re going to participate in the Celestial Pivot selection,” Elina rk asked.
When she said this, Charles Amos had just run to the front hall and heard the familiar voice inside, a voice he would remember for the rest of his life.<div>
It was the woman who hadpeted in marksmanship against his mother at the military district shooting range and was defeated. She had almost scared him to tears.
So he stopped and didn’t move.
Even gestured a “shush” sign to Kevin rk, who was walking slowly behind him.
In the hall, Bonnie Maxwell replied with a smile, “Yes. I haven’t been too busytely, so I thought I’d give it a try.”
“Instead of taking a break while you’re not busy,” Tom Wayne said, “don’t work too hard, and pay attention to your health.”
“Yeah,” Bonnie Maxwell replied, “we don’t have any Celestial Pivot members, and every time we want some information, we have to pay a high price for it. If I get in, I can climb up, and it’ll be more convenient in the future whenever we need information.”
“That’s true.” Elina rk nodded in agreement.
Bonnie Maxwell’s mouth still had a smile, and after talking for a bit more, she said, “My father went to the south recently and brought back some tea, so I brought some over too.”
“Thanks for thinking of us, having your father bring things every time.”
“It’s my pleasure,” Bonnie Maxwell replied, “I also bought a game console that is popr among children nowadays, as well as some educational Lego toys, all for Charles.”
Tom Wayne looked at her, “For Charles?”<div>
“Yes. I asked, and they are all things that nine or ten-year-old children like.” Bonnie Maxwell said, smiling at Tom Wayne.
The rk family has always been good at hiding their emotions.
To ascertain what was going on in their minds through their expressions was simply more difficult than ascending to the heavens.
But Bonnie Maxwell always had a strategy in mind, and she was confident that the rk family did not know about Charles Amos.
Although she hadn’t been able to find any information about the child, she had pried information from Thomas Firway.
From his mouth, she learned that the child was already nine years old and was Daisy Zane’s son.
Nine years old, which means Daisy Zane wasn’t even an adult when she had the child.
How dare a woman like that let the rk family know?
How could the rk family let such a woman in their home?
Moreover, Tom Wayne asked again, “For Charles?”
So, her carefully crafted smile on her face suddenly froze, showing a horrified look as if she’d made a mistake, “Didn’t The Third Master tell you about Daisy Zane’s son?”<div>
At this wording, Tom Wayne’s gaze lingered on her face for two seconds, then he exchanged nces with Elina rk.
Elina rk raised her eyebrows enigmatically but said nothing.
Meanwhile, Charles Amos, who had been listening outside the hall, turned his head, looked up, and stared at Kevin rk.
Kevin rk patted his head to keep him quiet.
Charles Amos crossed his arms, ring at him and whispered, “Your rotten peach blossoms! I’llin!”
Kevin rk squinted his eyes.
Charles took two steps back and said in a mix of trembling and fierce manner, “If you dare hit me, I will make things up when Iin!”
Kevin looked at him for a while, then snorted lightly, “As if you wouldin and know how to make things up.”
Charles: ” ”
After a nce at Elina rk and Natalie Wayne’s expressions, Bonnie Maxwell whispered apologetically, “I’m sorry, I shouldn’t have stuck my nose in it. I saw that Third Master and Daisy Zane had a good rtionship. Regarding Charles’s case, I thought he would have talked to the family.”
Since Natalie couldn’t bear to see the grown-up child embarrassed, she was about to exin when Charles’s voice suddenly rang.
“Grandpa! Grandma!” Charles listened from outside, waiting for the perfect opportunity to run in.
The three people talking in the living room immediately looked at the entrance.
Soon after the rapid footsteps, Charles appeared in their line of sight.
ra Mitchell opened her eyes wide, her body stiffening with shock as she looked at the person at the entrance.
Seeing him, both Elina and Natalie immediately startedughing.
“Hey, our Charles is here,” Elina waved, “Come here,e to Grandpa.”
Charles nced at ra, who had been staring at him non-stop, and ran to Elina’s side, “Grandpa, I missed you and Grandma so much.”
“Why didn’t youe to visit us then?” Natalie spoke gently.
Elina touched his hand, his eyes involuntarily drifting toward the living room door.
“I wanted to visit earlier,” Charles started ming Kevin, “but Uncle didn’t let me. He found me annoying and didn’t like me; he even wanted to hit me just now.”
Charles’s cunning acting skills showed up on the spot, making his story sound more pitiful.
Natalie smiled and said, “If he dares to hit you, Grandma will chase him away with a stick.”
“Thank you, Grandma,” Charles sweetly voiced his gratitude.
Just then, Kevin entered, his sudden appearance catching Elina off guard, who, being older, had slightly less keen hearing and hadn’t heard his footsteps.
She quickly looked away, unable to put on an angry expression in time.
Caught red-handed by Kevin.
As a result, Elina had to exert effort twice on her facial muscles to show he was still angry.
Kevinughed inwardly but didn’t expose him. He looked at Charles and said, “Fine, you let my mom hit me, and I’ll let your mom hit you. Fair enough.”
Charles’s smug little face immediately crumbled.
Kevin looked at him again and then turned to Elina, “Dad.”
Elina held Charles’s little hand, lowering her head, not looking or engaging with him.
Natalie nced at him, then exchanged a smile with Kevin.
“Charles,e to Grandma,” Natalie let him sit beside her, then introduced the cunning little boy, “Charles, Lucia here is Grandma’s apprentice. She oftenes to visit Grandpa and Grandma. You can call her Auntie Bonnie.”
When Kevin entered the room, ra had already calmed down.
She never expected that the rk Family knew about the existence of this child and had even brought him home.
Fortunately, she hadn’t said anything too harsh earlier.
There was still a chance to make amends.
As Natalie introduced her, ra smiled at Charles. Although the smile didn’t reach her eyes and hid a great distortion beneath her calm surface,
Charles looked at her, his lips moving several times without uttering anything.
He didn’t want to address this bad woman, but he was afraid his grandparents would think he was being impolite.
If he was impolite, it would affect his mother’s educational reputation and her image.
But he couldn’t say it.
