"Why did he take the kids?" Kristina Kingston was anxious, "Why did he take them? Where could he take them?"
He must have bad intentions!
Before they could answer, the sound of a car engine came, and the three women looked up to see a black Volvo driving towards them, soon stopping in the yard.
Anton Miller stepped out from the driver’s seat, turned to open the back door, and directly carried the two children in his arms, while Gigi bent down to close the car door.
"Uncle! I want to visit you again!" Gigi, looking like a perfect doll.
Dolly blinked her sparkling eyes, "I want to go too! I like playing that game!"
"We actually tied today, which means we’re pretty much at the same level!" Gigi was delighted, gently rubbing Anton’s ear, "And you had Dolly, that little tagalong, with you."
"Who are you calling a tagalong?" Dolly protested.
They laughed and chatted merrily as they walked towards them holding the two children.
Kristina Kingston kept her eyes on them, seeing the children all chummy with him, making her emotions hard to describe.
When Anton and the children saw Kristina Kingston, the smiles on their faces faded away!
Anton paused and put the kids down a short distance away.
The two children rushed to her and threw themselves into her arms.
Kristina Kingston bent down to embrace the children, but her gaze met with Anton’s.
The atmosphere was very calm.
Anton gave her a slight nod, "Hello." Although he didn’t address her, he spoke first, and there was no hostility in his eyes.
Kristina Kingston also smiled at him. Her smile was a bit awkward, but filled with goodwill.
"I’ll be going now." Anton waved to the children, "Gigi, Dolly, goodbye."
"Goodbye, Uncle!" The children were especially cheerful, "Thank you for playing with us!"
Anton smiled, took a few steps back, then turned around to get in the car and drove away quickly.
Kristina Kingston squatted down and asked the children, "Would you like to stay with Grandma for a while?"
The two children answered in unison.
Then Kristina Kingston stood up and said to Butler Shelby, "Old Shepherd, please go pack their things."
Everyone went into the living room, and the children even packed some toys Anton had bought for them before into their suitcase.
"Goodbye!" they said to the Emerald Cove servants. ᴜᴘᴅᴀᴛᴇ ꜰʀᴏᴍ noveⅼfire.net
The servants saw them off at the yard and helped them into the car.
On the way back to Clearwater Bay.
Gigi and Dolly sat on either side of Kristina Kingston, holding her hands, while she told them the story of "The Little Girl and the Three Little Pigs", asking questions occasionally, and the car was filled with laughter.
"I love listening to Grandma’s stories!"
Upon returning to Clearwater Bay, Mary and the servants warmly welcomed them.
"Welcome back, Master Gigi and Miss Dolly!"
When the children entered, they were amazed to see a mountain of oversized toys in the living room!
"Wow! What a beautiful Barbie doll!" It was two meters tall.
The Lego set was gigantic too, complete with a small ladder. Was it for building a castle?
Seeing the children’s delight, Kristina Kingston couldn’t help but feel joyful as well, "Do you like them?"
"Thank you, Grandma!"
"Grandma, I love you!"
"Grandma is the greatest grandma in the world!"
Kristina Kingston lovingly patted the children’s little heads and kindly said, "Tell Grandma what you want to eat tonight, and she’ll have it made."
"I want garlic-flavored crayfish!" Dolly blurted out.
"Alright, alright!" Kristina Kingston quickly turned to instruct the chef, "Garlic-flavored crayfish, did you get that?"
"Got it, madam." The chef was all smiles; he heard it without needing to be told twice.
The sun set, and Clearwater Bay was enveloped in a scene of warmth and happiness.
