The car arrived at the Chapmans’ Villa.
Lottie got out of the car and as soon as she entered the door, Fabian came up greeting.
The little one had a huge bunch of roses in his arms, “Lottie, congratulations!”
Lottie took the roses, “Congratulations?”
“You are no longer a stunt double. I and Elijah are really happy for you!”
Fabian looked at her and smiled, “Elijah also prepared milk tea especially for you!”
Lottie was touched. She squatted down, cupped Fabian’s face, and gently kissed him on the cheek, “Thank you.”
The little one’s face reddened.
He shyly turned his face away, “I… I…”
“I’m going upstairs to get Elijah down!”
After saying that, he pushed Lottie away and stomped off.
Lottie was amused by Fabian’s look, “Young though he is, he knows to be shy.”
Behind her, tall-figured Ralph took off his suit jacket elegantly and handed it over to the maid, “It’s a matter about genes.”
Lottie paused and looked back at him, “Genes?”
“Mm-hm”
Lottie wrinkled her eyebrows, “Does Fabian and Elijah’s mom gets shy easily?”
Ralph swept her a calm glance, “Not really.”
“Then you say that it’s a matter about genes? If it’s not inherited from their mother…”
Lottie said and her gaze turned to him, “Then is it inherited from you?”
Ralph’s deep dark eyes stared at her face and calmly spat out a word, “Yes.”
Lottie was speechless.
His gaze was burning hot and looking dangerous so she hurriedly turned her face away, not daring to meet his eyes, “Don’t tease me. You are definitely not the easily shy guy.”
“I am.”
Ralph looked at Lottie. A vague smile hung on the corners of his lips, “Try giving me a kiss if you don’t believe it.”
His words were like a fire that spread from Lottie’s face straight to her whole body.
“Lottie, try giving a kiss.”
Fabian’s mischievous little head popped out from the staircase railing and stared at her with a smile, “I want to see daddy’s shy face too!”
Lottie was speechless again.
She blushed and bit her lips, then turned and fled into the kitchen.
After getting into the kitchen, she didn’t forget to close up the kitchen door as well.
Through the frosted glass, Ralph looked at Lottie’s back as she leaned against the kitchen door, and a faint smile curled up on his lips.
He lifted his head and looked at Fabian who stood upstairs.
Fabian was also looking at him.
They locked eyes with each other. In the end, it was the little one who had spoiled daddy’s nice plan who had lost the battle and went back to his room gloomily to complain to his brother.
“Daddy just wants to do something towards Lottie.”
Fabian sat on a small chair with his arms around his chest, and his little face puffed up with anger.
Elijah sat by the desk holding onto a programming book that seemed difficult to understand even for adults, and smiled lightly while reading it, “They’re a legal couple.”
“But daddy has never said he loves Lottie.”
Fabian flattened his lips, still with a dissatisfied face, “From what I’ve seen from cartoons, the prince has to confess his love to the princess first before he can do something!”
Elijah paused as he heard Fabian’s funny words.
A moment later, he turned over a page on the programming book and continued reading, “It’s time for you to read something mature.”
Fabian pursed his lips, “Mature?”
Elijah lifted his hand and flung a copy of Theory on Mechanical Engineering over, “This.”
“I’m not going to become a nerd like you.”
Fabian put the book back on the desk and took out a tablet, “I want to be a mediocre kid.”
Elijah calmly glanced at him and shook his head.
This younger brother of his had the same high IQ as him, yet he was always looking like a little child who seemed to understand nothing.
Elijah really didn’t know if Fabian was really naive, or he was just pretending to be.
…
When Lottie arrived at the Filming Town the next day, the chief director and Luke were already waiting for her at the entrance.
