Edie rubbed her brain gently and said in a soft voice, "Do you listen to your aunt and grandma’s words? Have you bullied Avan again?"
"Of course. I never bullied anyone. I have dinner, sleep, and take a course on ti. Mom. I thought you have already given up on . I thought you had abandoned ..."
"Impossible. See, we already co here to pick you up. Stop crying, baby; otherwise, Avan would laugh at you later."
"I don’t dare to laugh at her," When Avan heard Edie’s words, he imdiately said, "Good afternoon, Uncle Stuart and Aunt Edie."
"Where are your parents? I want to thank them for taking care of our daughter."
Hearing these words, Avan really wanted to tell Edie it was he that took care of Laty these days. But after thinking for a while, he decided the give up this plan. He couldn’t expose himself now.
Therefore, he held all words back and said, "That uncle wants you to have dinner with us. He told that he is your old friend. He wants to see you. He really misses you."
"My old friend?" Edie froze. She didn’t have many French friends. Who was Avan’s uncle?
Hearing Avan’s words, Stuart imdiately walked to Edie and held her thin waist in his arms, "His uncle is the family head of the Louis’s, Francies."
Francies...sounded quite familiar...
Was he that earl that would rather die than getting married to a fat woman?
"Yes. It is , Edie. Long ti no see. Have you missed ?"
Francies was still that glib. He smiled at Edie so friendly. But in Stuart’s eyes, he was seducing Edie. His smile was so dirty.
Before Francies approached Edie, Stuart imdiately stopped her and pressed his hands on Francies’s shoulder, "Keep a safe distance, please. You were reported to have an affair with my wife before."
"What? Why do you still rember that? It has been quite a long ti. I failed to get Edie. Edie also changed. She is now the well-known photographer Miss Yares. It is the first ti for us to et each other. According to the courtesy, I need to kiss her hands,"
"No,"
"Edie hasn’t said anything. I am not asking you, sir," Francies rolled his eyes and looked towards Edie, showing his friendly smile.
Edie smiled helplessly, "I am much weaker than him. So I have no choice..."
She was just joking. But Francies took it seriously. He asked astonishingly, "You fight against each other? Really? Don’t be kidding. Everyone knows Stuart loves you the most."
"We fight on the bed. Of course, she would lose."
Stuart said directly.
As he said those words out, the atmosphere imdiately froze.
When hearing these words, Edie blushed imdiately. She was so angry and embarrassed.
Francies stood there, blankly.
Only those two kids were quite innocent. They looked at each other, wondering what those adults were talking about.
Finally, Francies coughed out to break the embarrassnt, "Quite astonishing words. Really. So impressive. All right then, please sit down. I really want to tell you sothing."
"I don’t want to talk about business here," Stuart said firstly.
"It is personal. Avan, take Laty to your study room. Don’t co downstairs. We have sothing to talk about here,"
Francies asked two kids to leave and dragged the couple to sit down. Then, his face changed imdiately.
"Frankly speaking, my sister and brother already passed away. Now I am responsible for bringing up Avan. Besides, I need to handle all business in our family. I need to take good care of Avan and cultivate him into the next family head. I am under great pressure. I am old enough. But I haven’t gotten married—that fat woman. Rember? She lost lots of weight. I haven’t gotten married,"
Then, he cried out directly.
"The most important thing is that the fat girl looks so beautiful now....."
"..."
So Francies was telling them that every fat girl was a potential beauty?
Suddenly Edie felt sympathetic for him.
But Stuart remained indifferent. He asked directly, "Say the point."
"The point is that you could help Louis’s so that I don’t have to spend too much ti on the business. Only in this way can I make ti to seek after my love. Okay?"
Francies was actually a lazy guy. He loved to seek after beauty, rather than being restricted into one place.
He stayed here because Avan was still so young. He needed a guardian. Francies had to take the responsibility to take care of him.
But, this has never been his dream.
"Why?" Stuart raised his eyebrows.
At the mont, Avan went downstairs. Francies waved hands to him to ask him to co to him and said, "See? All these bruises and dental imprints. Your daughter caused these. Is your daughter a dog? Why does she keep biting others?"
Francies raised Avan’s hands, showing those cruises and imprints. At the mont, Avan looked so innocent and pure. All of a sudden, the couple thought this little boy was such an adorable and poor kid.
"Is it hurtful?" Edie asked him in a concerning voice.
"No."
Avan shook his head.
Hearing his answer, Edie’s heart was softened. All pretty kids appealed to Edie.
Not to ntion Avan was such a beautiful little boy.
"Why does she bite you? Why don’t you teach her not to bite you again? It is wrong. You are older than her. When she made a mistake, you could not forgive her. You should tell her what is right and what is wrong. Understand?"
"She had a hard ti these days. She always had a nightmare at noon while she takes a nap. Every ti she wakes up, she cries. When she cries, she will bite her teeth. I am worried that she might hurt herself. So I allow her to bite . It doesn’t hurt so much."
Once a day....so thirty tis a month?
As expected, Avan’s two arms were covered with Laty’s dental imprints.
"Aunt Edie, please don’t bla Laty. She is also so sad after she bit . She is so worried about you. After knowing the accidents, she was driven crazy. She wouldn’t do this before."
Hearing these words, Francies couldn’t help himself raising his eyebrows. Quite impressive. Avan was quite young, but he already knew how to protect other girls.
Compared with bitter play, this was a better way.
Francies looked forward to throwing Avan to Edie directly.
After he has made the decision, he rubbed his hands together and said, "Edie, what are you going to do?"
Edie imdiately answered, "I would ask Laty to apologize to you. No matter what, it is Laty’s fault."
"Actually, this period is also quite special for Laty. I can understand her. I can forgive her as long as Avan could. But I need to go on a business trip later. I am worried about Avan. Could you do a favor? Take care of him for several days. It would also be convenient for these two kids to play together. What do you say?" Francies said and smiled at the couple.
