Chapter 110 Steven Is An Idiot
After instructing Gavin to watch over the children, Steven followed Kenneth to the study on the second floor. “Grandpa-”
“How could you?” Kenneth barked without a shred of mercy. “Even Sophia knows to speak up about this urgent matter. How could you not inform me about it at once?”
Ever since Franklin and Sophia were born, Steven’s ranking in Kenneth’s heart had dropped to the lowest. The latter became biased to the twins and no longer favored his grandson, Steven, as much.
“I-I forgot.”
“You forgot? How could you forget to update me on such a serious matter? You idiot! What good is your brain if you can’t even use it to do something so simple?” Kenneth fumed.
I would’ve spanked him on the butt if I had brought my cane with me.
On the other hand, Steven scratched his head while suppressing how furious he felt.
Idiot? Well, I’ve never seen an idiot as good-looking as me. Hmph! That old geezer doesn’t know what he’s saying.
“How did Sophia’s condition improve so much? Did you guys manage to hire a professional to coach her?” Kenneth suddenly asked.
“Nope. Her speech naturally improved after meeting Natalie…”
At that, Kenneth’s lips parted in surprise. “Natalie? Is that the girl who made Franklin want to return so urgently?”
“Yep.”
A pleased smile spread on Kenneth’s face as he mused, Well, I’ll be a monkey’s uncle. Here I thought Franklin was the only one who liked Natalie. Now, it turns out that Sophia likes her a lot too. This “Natalie” sounds like the perfect candidate for my great-grandson’s wife.
“What is Natalie like? Her character, I mean.”
Steven pondered for a while before answering, “She’s decent. Even Sam, who’s a picky person, approves of her. Most importantly, she got injured this time because she risked her life to protect Sophia.”
Kenneth stroked his beard with satisfaction. Hmm. She has excellent character and even knows how to care for Sophia’s safety. That sounds ideal.
“What about her looks?”
“Quite ordinary, and maybe even a little ugly,” Steven mindlessly blurted out. He then realized how harsh his words were and quickly added, “But Sam, Franklin, and Sophia find her attractive.”
