Filed to story: The Disguised Billionaire and His Accidental Wife Novel
Old Mrs. York hung up the phone when she was done talking. She managed to gain something today. At the very least, she learned that her eldest grandson was starting to be enlightened.
She sighed and thought, ‘I got so worried about that brat‘s lifelong happiness that my hair‘s turning gray.‘ Zachary stared at his phone for a moment and finally sent a message to Serenity, telling her that he had to eat with a client at noon and could not go over. An instant reply came from Serenity.
Serenity: (OK.) Zachary‘s expression fell.
‘Am I that unwelcomed to go over for lunch with her?
‘She forgot whose wife she is now that she has Elisa to accompany her.’
The petty and jealous man forgot what he had stressed over
himself several times.
He said he would never be a green–eyed monster, but he was now feeling exactly that because of Elisa.
In fact, he could have called Clive and told him to bring Elisa back. However, he was afraid if he did so, Elisa would find out that Serenity was his wife.
He leaned back on the black swivel chair and frowned tightly. He finally knew what it was like to shoot himself in the foot.
After moping about for a little while, he put away his gloom and picked up the phone to call Wiltspoon Hotel to arrange the delivery of a few of his wife‘s favorite dishes over to her.
She invited a guest for lunch, so he should add some good food to the spread.
Serenity had no clue that her asking Elisa to eat in the store was the reason Zachary could not come over.
She and Jasmine packed up the items that Elisa bought. The students were alm st out of class, so the shop‘s patrons would not be able to move about freely if the items were piled up there.
Elisa, on the other hand, was playing with Sonny in her arms. “Sonny, Sonny.” Olivia‘s shrill voice was heard suddenly. Serenity‘s expression turned sullen.
Olivia soon walked in while holding Chelsea‘s third child.
Chelsea was not with her. She probably went back to work.
“Sonny, Lucas is here to play with you.”
Olivia called out to Sonny while holding her other grandson. “Serenity, Ms. Sox.” She smiled and greeted Serenity and Jasinine. She glanced at them a few more times when they saw the two packing up.
Her attention was soon drawn to Elisa.
Elisa did not put Sonny down and asked him, “Who is she, Sonny?”
Serenity straightened up and said in a light tone, “Why are you here, Aunty?” Then, she told Elisa, “She‘s my sister‘s mother–in–law and Sonny‘s grandr her.” She emphasized on the word “grandmother”.
Elisa looked at Lucas, who Olivia was holding, then looked at Sonny. Sonny only greeted his grandmother once and nothing else. He was obviously not close to his grandmother. She guessed the relationship between Liberty and her mother–in law was not pleasant.
“Sonny usually has no playmates, so I went back and brought Lucas over today to play with him.”
Olivia explained briefly. When her grandson tried to break free from her to play with the two big boxes of toys, she let go and let Lucas grab the toys by himself.
“They‘re mine.”
Little children were protective over what belonged to them.
Sonny was no exception.
Lucas liked to snatch his things the most. If he refused, Lucas would hit liim. If he cried, his aunt would say that he could not cry because he was a boy. She even said that Lucas was just playing with his toys and would not take them away.
Sonny did not believe his aunt‘s words.
He was young and could not understand many things, but Sonny knew that Lucas would take along his toys every time the latter left. Even if Lucas did not take them away, he would destroy the toys.
Sonny slipped down from Elisa‘s arms to the floor and went to pull Lucas, not letting the latter play with his toys. “Sonny, don‘t push your brother. There are so many toys. You two brothers can play together.‘
When Olivia saw Sonny pushing Lucas, she instinctively went to pull Sonny away, not letting him push Lucas.
The three girls saw what Olivia did and felt a little angry.
Elisa was the closest to Sonny. She stood up and pulled Sonny back from Olivia‘s hands. Then, she pulled the box of toys that had not been packed yet closer to her. Her pretty face was cold as she said, “Lady, how do you teach your children? Taking other people‘s things without their consent is stealing.
“Besides, I bought all these for Sonny, so they belong to Sonny. If he doesn‘t want to let Lucas play with them, then Lucas doesn‘t get to. If Lucas wants to play, he can go buy them himself.”
When Lucas saw that Elisa refused him playing with the toys, he
immediately lay on the ground and rolled around, crying while coughing
“Lucas, Lucas!”
Olivia hurriedly pulled her grandson up and asked Serenity, “Who is that woman, Serenity? Why is she bickering with a child? Sonny and Lucas are close cousins. What‘s wrong with Lucas playing with his brother‘s toys?”
Serenity‘s expression was sullen, and her tone was not pleasant.“ Sonny‘s toys belong to him. They can only play together if Sonny is willing to let Lucas play. If he‘s not willing, then Lucas can‘t play.”
“Sonny was raised badly by you two sisters. He doesn‘t know how to love his own brother.” Olivia accused angrily.
Serenity said coldly, “Who is Lucas? What has he got to do with me? Sonny is my nephew. I can‘t possibly let him suffer to coax someone else‘s child. What did Sonny do wrong? It‘s your other grandson who was raised badly. He always bullies Sonny, steals his toys, beats him, and brings his toys back home. You‘re their grandmother, right? Are you blind?
“Or is this what you usually teach him? Olivia, Lucas is your grandson, but so is Sonny. You‘re too biased!”
Olivia was speechless. She responded, “Sonny is still young, Serenity. Besides, Sonny has so many toys. What‘s wrong with giving Lucas one or two to play with? Look, Sonny, your brother is crying. Share some toys with him to play together, okay?”
Sonny hesitated.
Elisa said to him, “Sonny, you don‘t have to force yourself if you don‘t want to share. If he likes to cry, he can cry as much as he wants. Since he wants to roll around and clean the floor, we‘ll let him do as he pleases. It‘ll save your Aunt Seren the need to mop the floor.”
Sonny said softly, “Lucas is bad.”
Way to go Elisa! No exception when it comes to dealing with a bad attitude!
I think Serenity,Elisa don’t know kids ought to be kids. No matter the differences teach them how to share and to love each other.Most of the time you won’t spend time with your kid he/she will be with other kids so it’s important to teach them how to socialize.
