Chapter 1518
With that, Sherry and Sylvia brought Flint to the living room.
When Isabel and Queenie noticed them approaching, they set the tablet aside. Odell and John similarly set down their teacups and turned to the pair of mothers.
Liam was still busy fiddling with his toys intently, with Caprice still staring at him.
John called out to Caprice to get her attention, "Caprice."
Caprice seemed like she was finally pulled out of a trance. She turned to John with a dazed look in her eyes.
John smiled at her. "Come to Daddy."
Caprice suddenly turned away from him and went back to staring at Liam.
John was speechless.
He rose from his seat and went to get Caprice.
Odell, who was seated across from John, rose as well, and he went to Liam.
"Come on, Liam, we're going out. Take Caprice with you."
He said in a solemn voice.
Only then did Liam direct his attention away from his toys and met Caprice's bright and reflective eyes.
There was not even a ripple of emotion on his face as he quietly set down the toy and put a hand out toward Caprice.
Caprice was overjoyed and immediately took Liam's hands.
Liam led her outside.
Odell cracked a smile, then he turned to John. "Isabel and Liam help take care of Flint most of the time so you don't have to worry. I'm sure he'll take good care of Caprice."
John smiled pleasantly. "I'll leave it to Liam then."
Odell said, "It's his duty as the eldest."
John chuckled.
"What are you two talking about?" Sylvia and Sherry approached.
Odell smiled and mentioned, "We were talking about Liam and Caprice."
Sylvia looked at Liam and Caprice.
Liam was leading Caprice by the hand and walking outside.
The girl seemed fascinated by everything around her and would cast the occasional glance at Liam.
Sylvia caught on to what the men were talking about and gasped. "Ohh."
Sherry noticed as well.
Caprice was not the only one by Liam's side. Flint was also tailing Liam on his other side.
Queenie and Isabel followed them.
In the midst of them all, Liam looked like the leader of the pack. The one thing that stood out was Caprice. She looked like she was completely enchanted and did not know how to react to the situation.
Sherry tried to call after her, "Caprice!"
Liam stopped and so did Caprice, but her eyes were still fixed intently on Liam. It was questionable whether she had even heard her mother calling her name at all.
Sherry smiled sheepishly.
She did not blame Caprice for being completely mesmerized by Liam. Even at his young age, it was clear that he had inherited his father's charms, and he was sure to be a model when he grew up.
Sherry let Caprice be and turned to John. "Where are we going to take the kids today?"
John answered, "We’re going to the park south of the city."
With that, he held out a hand to her.
