Chapter 665: Extra Forty-Two Chen Years: This child is so clingy.
Kevin Clark had no choice but to sit down on a chair nearby.
Since he was small and afraid of hurting Charlotte Lane, he would find a place to sit down and hold her in his arms whenever she wanted him to hold her.
Old Master Lane placed little Lila in his arms. She immediately grabbed onto Kevin’s clothes, lying in his arms, staring at him with big eyes and smiling.
“Lila really likes Arthur,” said Tom Wayne with a smile.
“Yes, she always wants him to hold her when she sees him.” Old Master Lane laughed. “Maybe it’s their destined fate.”
Tom Wayne laughed.
As Kevin listened to their conversation, he looked down at the little thing in his arms: What kind of destined fate was this? A fate destined to babysit?
Thinking about it, Kevin’s mind began to wander.
Just at that moment, the little one in his arms suddenly nibbled on his face.
Old Master Lane, Tom Wayne, and William Lane were all watching, making them witnesses to the scene.
Kevin was startled and shook involuntarily.
Charlotte let go of him, smiling happily and her eyes full of innocence.
As for Kevin… his face covered in drool.
Tom Wayne… watched Kevin’s stunned expression and laughed so hard he couldn’t stand up straight.
Kevin was in a mess in the banquet hall: “……”
Seeing Tom Wayne laugh, Old Master Lane also laughed after a while.
William Lane, however, stared with a darkened face, full of resentment.
Everyone thought Charlotte had given him a peck on the cheek, but only Kevin knew that he had been nibbled on.
To be more precise, she seemed to have sucked on his face. Her small teeth even touched his skin, causing a little pain.
“Elder Brother,” Little Lila called.
William Lane handed Kevin a tissue paper, held Charlotte’s little hand, wiped the saliva from her mouth saying, “This is Uncle, I am your elder brother.”
“Elder Brother,” Little Lila still called.
William Lane: “…Uncle.”
“Elder Brother,” Little Lila insisted.
William Lane: “……”
…
Lila loved to stick to Kevin. Whenever he visited the Lane Family, she would ask him to hold her. Sometimes, he would hold her for a long time.
There were times when Little Lila would fall asleep in his arms.
Kevin didn’t like children, but when it came to Lila…he would do almost anything for her.
It wasn’t the same treatment he gave to his own sister, Elina Clark. As for Elina, he could express his thoughts freely and do what he wanted.
But he wouldn’t do that with Lila.
Because his father, Arthur North, told him that Old Master Lane was his benefactor, and he should respect and care for his family.
So, he also tried his best to be good to Lila.
And so, day after day…
Lila grew up slowly and became more and more beautiful.
Both Kevin and William developed quickly, taller than their peers, and becoming increasingly handsome.
After starting school, Kevin’s visits to the Lane Family became less frequent.
However, every time he came, Lila would come to see him and ask him to hold her.
The little girl, who initially called him “Elder Brother,” started to call him “Brother Arthur.”
Kevin hadn’t visited the Lane Family for a week, and the three-year-old Lila thought it had been a long time since she had last seen him. So, one afternoon when she and William were playing on the swing in the courtyard, she asked him, “Elder Brother, I haven’t seen Brother Arthur for a long time.”
“It’s because of Third Uncle.” William’s voice was still childlike.
“No, it’s Brother Arthur.” Lila corrected in her sweet and milky voice.
William picked up a strawberry from a round table nearby and fed it to Lila, “Why do you like him so much?”
“Yes.” Charlotte Lane said.
William Lane smiled and pinched her little face: “So, do you like Elder Brother more, or Kevin Clark more?”
Charlotte continued eating her strawberry without speaking.
William Lane patiently waited for her to finish the strawberry, and asked again.
Charlotte looked at him: “Can’t I like both?”
“No, you must choose one that you like more.” William insisted.
Little Charlotte thought seriously for a while: “But I really like both.”
“Then if both of us fell into the water, who would you save first?” William threw out a difficult question.
Little Charlotte’s eyebrows knit together, her chubby cheeks puffed up: “Why would you both fall into the water?”
William Lane: “…It’s just a hypothetical situation.”
“What’s a hypothetical situation?” Charlotte asked innocently.
William Lane: “……”
Charlotte Lane looked at William Lane, and after a while, suddenly laughed: “Elder Brother, you’re being petty.”
“So what if Elder Brother is petty?” William grumbled.
Charlotte laughed and, after a while, said: “Elder Brother, I want to play on the swing.”
“Alright.” William jumped off the swing and pushed her on it.
Perhaps in response to Charlotte’s call, Arthur North came with his father to the Lane Family that night to deliver some things.
When he arrived, Charlotte was playing with toys upstairs with Aunt Cruz. Upon hearing Arthur’s arrival, she immediately ran downstairs.
“Brother Arthur!” Charlotte started calling from upstairs, then ran all the way down.
Arthur was sitting properly on the sofa, but stood up when he heard her voice.
Then he was pushed back onto the sofa by Charlotte’s hug.
Little Charlotte ran straight into Arthur’s arms and pushed him, who was standing next to the sofa, back into it.
Once Arthur was seated, she clumsily climbed onto his lap and sat in his embrace.
A small flame was burning in William Lane’s eyes.
Adults didn’t think there was anything wrong, used to the two children being close. Sophie Ortiz just reminded: “Charlotte, be careful, don’t hurt your Brother Arthur.”
Charlotte looked up at Arthur, her bright eyes asking if he was hurt.
Arthur, like a little adult, held her shoulder to keep her from falling and said to Sophie Ortiz: “Aunt Sophie, the sofa is soft, it’s okay.”
The adults chatted while the children sat nearby.
Charlotte looked at Arthur and said: “Brother Arthur, you haven’t been here for a long time. I missed you so much.”
William rolled his eyes.
“I’ve been practicing piano music recently, so I’ve been a bit busy.” Arthur said.
“Did you miss me?” Charlotte’s little voice was fragile.
Arthur didn’t say anything for a moment.
He watched as the little girl’s bright eyes lost their luster bit by bit, and the upward curve of her mouth began to sink, then immediately said: “Mhm.”
Charlotte’s heart was filled with light again: “Mhm means you missed me?”
“Mhm.”
Charlotte immediately smiled, rubbed her head against his shoulder, and suddenly said: “Brother Arthur, you smell so good, even better than before.”
“It’s Eaglewood.”
“Eaglewood?” Charlotte asked curiously, then sniffed him again after asking.
“Do you like it?” Arthur had long accepted the little girl who had forcefully stepped into his life, and had been getting used to her presence, used to having her around.
“Mhm.”
“I’ll bring some for you next time.” Arthur said.
“Okay, thank you, Brother Arthur.” Charlotte’s little head leaned back on his shoulder, and she listened to their conversation.
