“Hi, Grandma!” He greeted her the moment he saw Julia.
Julia did not realize there was someone else until he greeted her. She nodded in greeting and said, “You’re here too.”
“Of course! I missed you! So, I came to see you,” he said, but then felt like something was off. He had come empty-handed…
He looked at Gareth for help, but Gareth was looking at him with mockery. He was smiling from ear to ear.
Vincent cleared his throat embarrassedly and scratched his nose. All good. As long as I’m not awkward, it will be fine.
Julia giggled. She didn’t care about that.
“You came too late. You should’ve come when we were having dinner.”
“It’s okay. I feel full from seeing you. We can have dinner together next time.”
Elisa furrowed her brows slightly. She didn’t care why Vincent was here; she was more concerned about the thing Gareth brought back. There were cameras recording the living room, and she was worried that Julia might leak the recordings to show the world the surprise Gareth had prepared for her. From what Elisa saw of Julia’s behavior, she was sure of it.
Julia did not give Elisa time to say anything. She turned to Gareth and urged with a smile, “What are you doing dilly-dallying? Hurry and give Elisa the present!”
Gareth stared at Elisa and walked over to pass her the small box.
