This ti, Aurelia Shaw was even more certain that this was all pre-planned.
Kai Nightshade sat at the dining table and coldly snorted as he saw the two coming in.
"Grandpa." Aurelia Shaw approached and called out sweetly.
Mason Nightshade couldn’t help but glance at her.
Kai Nightshade’s expression softened a lot, but his face remained stern as he huffed, "You said you’d co to see twice a week, but those words were just to fool this old man. Sigh, I really believed it. If I hadn’t had soone call you back, you would’ve probably forgotten all about it."
Aurelia Shaw had indeed kind of forgotten.
But.
Those words couldn’t be said to Grandpa’s face.
She stuck out her tongue, wearing a look of guilt, "I’m sorry, Grandpa. Lately, I’ve been rushing through all kinds of scheduling, without even ti to sleep. Just forgive this once; I promise I’ll rember next ti."
Kai Nightshade’s face was indifferent, but the flickering eyes betrayed his mood.
His lips moved, just about to say sothing, but Mason Nightshade’s light voice drifted over, "Grandpa, don’t forget she’s an actress."
Aurelia Shaw suddenly glared at Mason Nightshade.
That look seed to reprimand him: Whose side are you on?
Kai Nightshade stopped his words, looked at Aurelia Shaw—Aurelia put on an innocent expression like a dainty white flower, her peach blossom eyes clear as she t his gaze, and only then did Kai Nightshade believe what she said was true.
Aurelia Shaw felt a bit guilty inside.
She turned and saw Mason Nightshade’s teasing gaze; suddenly, all the guilt inside vanished. Her beautiful eyes widened as she glared at him, the latter feeling as if his heart had been scratched, really wanting to kiss her eyes.
Aurelia Shaw sat down at the dining table and only then discovered a plump, fluffy thing on it. "atball?"
Mason Nightshade pulled out the chair behind her, "No one to take care of them at ho, so I brought them here."
Them...
Turning to look at the sofa, sure enough, there was another fluffy white and gray thing on it—"Snowy!"
Jas eyed her disdainfully.
Hmph, foolish human, I am called Jas! How many tis have I said I am Jas! Caspian’s sister mustn’t be too bright.
Hearing Jas’s na, atball’s small body quivered slightly, jumping to Aurelia Shaw’s side pitifully,
Little owner, please don’t leave behind again.
"Woof woof!!" A dog’s bark echoed from the back garden.
Aurelia Shaw trembled, feeling a shiver run straight up to her scalp, an uncomfortable feeling filling her entire body.
No way around it, she really can’t co to like dogs.
Mason Nightshade held her waist to seat her down, in a spot where no one could see, nibbling lightly on her ear, "Coward."
Aurelia Shaw: "..."
She mustn’t let him find her weak spot.
By the ti they finished eating, it was already dark.
Aurelia Shaw stretched lazily, glancing outside.
Kai Nightshade mistakenly thought she was leaving, aggressively tapped his cane on the ground and grunted again, "Saying you miss this old man, just sweet-talking, go if you’re going to go."
Aurelia Shaw was surprised, her mouth open.
How co, after a few months, Grandpa’s temper has beco so fickle?
Mason Nightshade sighed helplessly, giving Grandpa a look: The act is a bit overdone.
A bit overdone?
Kai Nightshade thought to himself.
Imdiately realizing he had slipped, he put on a stoic face, sadly musing to himself, "Once people get old, they’re just annoying. Sigh, just let grow old alone in this old house, dying here with no one knowing."
