Chapter 1232
Barbara stood by and watched until Helios finished the call. She then asked, “Did he agree to come along?”
Helios placed his phone on the desk, stretched out, and hugged her. “He’s agreed to it, but I’m putting my bet on the fact that he’ll be livid when he finds out that we intend to arrange a blind date for him.”
Barbara smoothed his collar. “Zee claimed that the chances of this girl getting together with Francisco are as high as 90%.” “Is she that certain?” Helios narrowed his eyes slightly, and he seemed to be a little curious about who the girl that Maisie mentioned was.
Barbara lifted his head, made him look at her, and chuckled softly. “You’ll know by then, won’t you?”
On the day of the outing, Maisie and Nolan took the two kids to the outskirts of the town to pick a spot before anyone’s arrival. They finally chose a place with beautiful scenery that was very suitable for camping
The water in the lake was very shallow and looked clear, so crystal clear that one could see the pebbles and clusters of aquatic plants at the bottom of the lake from the bank.
“Dad, Mom, there are a lot of tadpoles!” Daisie squatted on the cobblestone bank and laughed happily when she saw a school of tadpoles in the water that got scared and hid in the cracks of the stone when they saw humans approach.
Colton looked disgusted. “What’s so good about staring at tadpoles? They’ll one day grow up to be ugly frogs.”
Maisie and Nolan set up the tent, and she turned and glanced at them both, “Be careful not to fall. Your clothes are very expensive.”
Nolan lifted his gaze to look at her and could not help but laugh. “Are the kids or their clothes more important?”
“Their clothes,” she answered without any hesitation.
Besides, the lake is so shallow that it can’t even reach the kids’ knees, so how can it drown them?’
Nolan squinted. “What about the kids and me? Who’s more important?”
She replied instantly, “The kids.
Nolan was at a loss for words.
