Chapter 1320 Zachary Tricks Regan


    The smile on Regan''s face froze. My, my. This kid''s aura is strikingly simr to Benjamin''s. If it weren''t


    for his small stature, I''d have thought it was Benjamin talking to me...


    “As your grandfather, I just wanted to buy you kids a meal. That''s all!”


    By then, Regan had noticed that the children had bodyguards protecting them and was genuinely


    worried that if he pushed their buttons, they might get the bodyguards to throw him out. That, without a


    doubt, would be utterly embarrassing.


    Jasper couldn''t help but snort at Regan.


    Zachary, however, realized Regan wasn''t giving up anytime soon and began to devise a n in his


    mind.


    Soon, he broke into a smile and made it a point to use a much friendlier tone. “Are you really buying us


    a meal?”


    Ha. Regan probably couldn''t get to Mommy, so he came looking for us here. I can''t believe he even


    bothered to wait this long. There''s no way he has no ulterior motives! In any case, the thought of him


    bullying Mommy makes my blood boil. It''s time for me to stand up for her and teach him a lesson!


    “Of course!” Regan said as he leaned down and smiled at Zachary, thinking the boy had given in.


    However, when he heard what his grandson said next, the corners of his mouth immediately twitched.


    “Okay, but we don''t feel like going out,” Zachary said, nodding sagely. “How about this? Since you''re


    eager to treat us to a meal, why not convert that sentiment into a cash gift? That way, we can head out


    to eat whenever we want to. You''ve already said you''re our grandfather, so you won''t refuse to give us


    money, will you?”


    Seeing the expression on Regan''s face start to crack, Gavin and the others secretly gave Zachary a


    thumbs up.


    Wow! Zachary sure is full of ideas!


    With that, the children gazed at Regan, their faces filled with anticipation, making it hard for him to even


    think of turning them down.

    Besides, he was eager to foster a deeper bond with the little ones, so he dly agreed to the request.


    “All right. I''ll give the money to you guys. Let me know when you feel like heading out for a meal!”


    As Regan took out his wallet, a glint shed across Zachary''s eyes, and he began to put on a pitiful


    act.


    “It''s your first time giving us money, so please don''t be stingy. We enjoy eating at restaurants like


    Drawbridge Dining. If you give us too little, we''ll have to cover the rest of the bill ourselves. Can you


    imagine how embarrassing it''d be if we didn''t have enough money?”


    Regan was about to give the children the few thousand he had in his wallet, only to hesitate after


    hearing Zacharyin that it was too little. Needless to say, he didn''t want to risk losing his face in


    front of them.


    “I don''t have a lot of cash on me today. How about I make it up to you the next time?”


    Oh, well... I guess I have to go along with their wishes if I want to win their affection.


    “Hmm... If someone were to ask me how much money Granddad gave me, I think I''d be too


    embarrassed to tell them. The other kids wouldugh at me!” Zachary muttered, looking incredibly


    solemn and troubled.


    Gavin, Tim, Oliver, Jasper, and Jesse quickly nodded and chimed in, “Yes. People will make fun of us.”


    Regan looked at them and slowly stuffed the money back into his wallet.


    “You can transfer the money to us. We all have phones,” Zachary suggested before pulling up his own


    payment code. “Alternatively, you can transfer the full sum to me, and I''ll split it evenly with the others.


    Ten thousand for each person should be enough!”


    Regan gaped at the boy. “Ten thousand?”


    Oh, my goodness. That''s sixty thousand for all six of them... Does it cost that much to have a meal?


    “It''s okay if you can''t bear to part with the money, but that also means you can''t see us anymore. After


    all, Mommy will be upset if she learns about this. Moreover, everyone knows that a meal at Drawbridge


    Dining costs tens of thousands. Have you never eaten there before?”


    Seeing the questioning looks on the children, Regan felt a blush creep up his cheeks. “Of course I


    have! For many times!”


    Truth be told, he had only visited Drawbridge Dining a few times, and it was always with his clients. As


    much as he hated to admit it, he''d be reluctant to patronize the restaurant if he didn''t have hispany


    absorb the expenses.


    Every meal he had there cost at least a hundred thousand, and that was when no one drank. When


    they did, however, the bill went up even more.


    “Exactly! Meals there aren''t cheap, but the food is delicious, and we all enjoy it,” Zachary said before


    sighing. “Ah... Let''s forget about it if you''re reluctant. We don''t have to go out to eat.”
