All Too Late novel Chapter 353

Chapter 353 Manipulated

After breakfast, Kathleen began to browse the web. She wanted to buy a piano for the children. Desi sat next to her.

“Mommy, can you not buy a piano?” Hearing that, Kathleen looked at her in surprise. Desi stretched out her little hand and explained,

“Every time I play the piano, I feel as if my fingers are about to break.” Hearing that, Kathleen smiled.

“Then let’s buy it for Eil. He has long arms.” Eil, who was sitting by the side and reading a book, was speechless. Gemma looked at him sympathetically.

“Okay!” Desi strongly agreed. Kathleen said with a smile, “I heard that practicing the piano can make your arms grow longer, and your body will also grow taller. In the future, Eil will grow up to be as tall as Daddy, but you will still be this short. When the time comes, Eil will make fun of you for it.”

Blinking, Desi asked, “Playing the piano makes a person taller?”

“You see how Eil is taller than you? It’s because he practices the piano more than you do, and he takes it more seriously,” Kathleen said with a smile. Desi could not sit still anymore.

“Mommy, hurry up and buy it! Let’s buy this white one! This black one is also fine. Just buy one and let them send it here!” If I don’t start now, I’ll never grow taller.

Eil heaved a sigh. She’s so easy to be manipulated. At ten o’clock in the morning, two elderly ladies came to the house. One of them was Amelia Gardner, and the other was Mila Hunt. They were both in their forties, and they looked like honest people.

After all, they had been carefully selected by Samuel. Kathleen said to them, “I don’t have any other requests. Your main task is to help me take care of my two children.” Amelia and Mila nodded.

“Noted, Ms. Johnson.” “Also, I don’t like people who gossip,” added Kathleen lazily.

“Yes.” The two nodded again.

“There is nothing else. The rest of the things are up to you guys,” Kathleen said flatly. With that, Amelia and Mila went to the room to drop off their luggage.

Then, they started to familiarize themselves with the environment. Truthfully, before coming here, Samuel had already informed them beforehand, so they knew the rules. It was a bright and sunny day. Kathleen took the children to play on the field of grass. She and Gemma sat under the parasol, having coffee.

“Are you and Richard going to get married?” Kathleen asked out of the blue, curious. Gemma blinked, with a shy look on her face.

“Maybe.”

“You don’t seem to be very sure,” Kathleen commented, astonished. Letting out a sigh, Gemma responded, “It’s my brother. He doesn’t like Richard. You know he’s a policeman, so he’s always suspicious, and Richard has a lot of really complicated things.”

“How complicated?” Kathleen was curious.

“It’s that he…” Gemma trailed off.

“Actually, I don’t know how to put it into words, but I think he’s fine.”
