Chapter 536 Will She Lose Badly
Kenneth was delighted because all four of his great-grandchildren were cute and outstanding.
“Get some candies, ice-creams, and cakes for the kids…” The butler quickly ran into the kitchen upon listening to Kenneth’s order.
Apparently, Kenneth was very fond of them.
However, Natalie couldn’t agree with Kenneth’s overindulgence toward the children and argued determinedly, “Old Mr. Bowers, since Franklin and Sophia are still young, they might become obese from eating too much sweets. Besides, the food isn’t good for their health, and they might get tooth decay.”
Kenneth refused to heed her advice and said overbearingly, “It’s okay. I’ll be happy as long as they’re happy. I don’t care how you usually teach them. However, since they’re here, I must pamper them and let them eat anything they want.”
Oh dear…
Natalie wanted to continue arguing with Kenneth; nonetheless, she held her tongue when she saw his flushed face.
Once Kenneth turned around to get the chessboard ready, Natalie pointed at the children, signaling them not to eat so much.
The smart children instantly understood what Natalie meant.
After a while, the sweets and cakes were served, and the chessboard had been put in place.
Among all the kids, only Xavian knew how to play Go.
While eating walnut cookies, Sophia murmured, “Isn’t Great-grandpa very good at playing Go? Will Mommy face humiliating defeat?”
Franklin disagreed with it while eating fried cakes. “Don’t worry! I can make a mess out of the chessboard before Mommy loses. In that case, Great-grandpa can’t win and say unpleasant words to her!”
Clayton roughly knew that Natalie was a good Go player; nevertheless, Xavian was even more confident about her capability.
“Xavian, can you tell them which rank Mommy is at now?”
Xavian lowered his voice and replied, “You don’t have to worry about Mommy. We can eat the cakes and watch them play. Besides, it will be too soon to tell the winner and the loser!”
Hence, the kids enjoyed eating the cakes and sweets while watching the game quietly.
