Charlotte gave Dn an imploring look, afraid that he still insisted on sending her away.


    Dn nced at old Sterling and didn''t say more. He carried Kaiden to the dining room and ced him in the adjustable child seat. Then he sat opposite to Kaiden.


    Charlotte let out a sigh of relief. She followed and sat down next to Dn and quietly moved the chair closer to him.


    She could smell the fantasizing fresh smell of this enigmatic man and hear him breathing.


    After three years, she finally could be so close to him again.


    She came to LA secretly without telling her brother and visited old Sterling with an excuse. Everything was worth it.


    Charlotte felt her heart pounding with excitement, but a child''s voice came in time.


    "I want to sit there!"


    Dn looked at his son, who pointed to where he was sitting.


    "Kaiden, why do you want to take your daddy''s seat?" Old Sterling asked with augh.


    "I can''t reach the dishes over there." Kaiden held up his stic knife and fork and gave his grandpa a wink.


    If it was really for the dishes, they could just change the ce of the tes, but obviously, the boy just didn''t want to see his father get too close to other women.


    "Well, Dn, Kaiden wants to sit in your seat. Then just change it." Old Sterling always followed his dear grandson''s words unconditionally.


    Dn didn''t mind. He asked the servant to change the seats and sat next to old Sterling.


    "Auntie, you don''t like me? Why do you look unhappy when I sit here?" Kaiden looked at Charlotte, who looked disappointed, blinking his big innocent eyes.


    Charlotte clenched her fist when everyone''s eyes fell on her.


    "Howe I don''t like you? You''re so cute. Everyone likes you." She smiled softly as she said


    She knew that this boy was a treasure of old Sterling. To be annoyed, the boy was the same as to offend old Sterling.


    That was to say, she could win the favor of Dn''s father by showing concern for the boy.


    Thinking of this, she picked up the fox and asked in a softer voice, "Kaiden, didn''t you just say that you like the food here? What do you want to eat? Let me pick it for you. Salmon?"


    "No, I want the Lemon chicken."


    "Oh, well, chicken''s good."


    "Thank you, auntie." Kaiden said politely after Charlotte picked a piece of chicken for him, and then he added, "eating fish can make you smarter. I suggest you have more."


    Charlotte paused when she was about to take a piece of Salmon. Eating fish can make her smarter? Should she have more? What did he mean? Did she look silly?


    Old Sterling and Cooper behind himughed silently.


    "Kaiden, who told you that?" Old Sterling coughed.


    "My mommy told me. She said that nutrition in fish could make me taller and smarter. But I think auntie Rowe needs it more than me. She looked dumbfounded when she looked at daddy!" Kaiden dered.


    "Did your mommy ask you to eat more vegetables?" Old Sterlingughed and changed the subject.


    Charlotte lowered her head and dared not to look at Dn brazenly. What a tough boy!


    "Auntie, eat vegetables!" Kaiden picked some purple cabbage from the vegetable sd into Charlotte''s te as a return.


    Charlotte swallowed her displeasure and picked up the purple cabbage and put it in her mouth. In a moment, a sharp, hot taste trickled through her tongue, and she vomited up the purple cabbage and coughed.


    How could the purple cabbage be so strong? It tasted like mustard!


    She was so defenseless that the mustard smell made her nose running and eyes watering!


    Damn it! It must be the little boy who had done something!


    Annoyed and embarrassed, she covered her face and rushed to the nearest washroom on the first floor!


    "How did auntie eat herself cry? The vegetable sd tastes good!" Kaiden shook his head.


    Dn nced at Kaiden and then at the vegetable sd. Next to it were the sliced raw salmon bowl and a dish of mustard.


    Needless to say, the little guy had just stirred the purple cabbage into the mustard.


    Old Sterling caught the sight of what his grandson had done, but he didn''t me him for it and just let the maid in to see how Charlotte was now.


    A momentter, Charlotte came out with the maid.


    Her face was still red after bad coughing; her hair was somehow wet after she washed her face. Obviously, she had adjusted her mood before she sat back.


    "I''m sorry, uncle Sterling," she said.


    "It''s all right. Food first. Come on." Old Sterling said hurriedly, afraid that Charlotte would find what his dear grandson had done, and med him.


    The four sat down again and continued to eat.


    Dn didn''t say anything during the meal, so old Sterling took the initiative to talk with the guest. He cared about how the Rowes were doing these years and asked how were Lionel and his newpany. Charlotte answered politely.


    Atst, old Sterling invited her toe to eat next time and ended the dinner.


    After another short rest in the living room, Charlotte rose from the couch and said, "I''m gonna go, uncle. I''lle to see you next time." She nced at Dn unconsciously as she said.


    Seeing this, old Sterling said to his son, "Dn, send Miss Rowe back. It''s toote."


    It was obvious that Charlotte came to visit him today for Dn.


    Though they had dinner together, she didn''t have a chance to talk to Dn because of Kaiden''s interruption and the presence of others. Now she must want to talk to Dn alone.


    The Rowe family had kept a good rtionship with the Sterling family, and the girl came to LA, especially for Dn. They should not be too cold for her.


    Old Sterling was afraid that his son would say no. Unexpectedly, Dn stood up and asked Kaiden to stay.


    "Okay. I''ll send Charlotte back first. Kaiden, just stay here and y with your grandpa. I''ll pick you upter." Then he went to the door.


    Surprisingly pleased, Charlotte followed him out of the hall.


    However, Dn kept silent all the way in the car. He stopped at the gate of Royal Vi and got off.
