Blimey, My Kid's the Heir to the Billionaire Boss! -
Chapter 1279 Can You Take This to Daddy for Me?
The private jet touched down at Biston Airport. Sadie clutched the kids' hands as they stepped off, taking in the city that felt both familiar and foreign, a wave of loneliness washing over her. Back in the day, when Edmond was still around, he brought Sadie here. She was just a teenager then.
Edmond was hustling to get his business off the ground, and Brenda would hang out with her at a villa in the 'burbs.
There were a few ginkgo trees at the villa's entrance. In fall and winter, the leaves would blanket the ground in a golden glow, all pretty and cozy.
Biston, kinda like Newark, had this chill, pleasant vibe. No snow in winter, so even in the colder months, you'd see green trees and yellow leaves everywhere, making the place look pretty dope. But without Edmond and Brenda, Sadie felt like she didn't belong here, and the loneliness hit hard.
"Auntie, where are we?" Mary asked, all curious. She crouched down, picked up some leaves, squinted one eye, and checked them out in the sunlight.
"This is Biston," Sadie said with a smile, "It's kinda like my second home."
"It's so pretty here!" Emma exclaimed, looking around with wide eyes, "I used to think the world was white, then green and purple, and now I know it can be golden too!" Sadie chuckled, crouching down to ruffle Emma's hair.
Kids were so pure and adorable. They'd been living in Skyport City, where it snowed all the time, so they thought the world was white.
Then they moved to Grapetown Heights, with all the pastures, lawns, and purple grapes, so they thought the world was purple.
Now, in Biston, seeing all the leaves, they thought the world could be golden too.
Emma was using the simplest words to describe her view of the world.
"Auntie, when can we see Daddy, Mommy, Mia, and Noah?" Donna asked, the most grown-up of the three.
"Donna," Sadie hugged her shoulders gently, "Your Daddy and Mommy are busy, so I'll be looking after you for now. As for Mia and Noah, I'll take you to see them soon, okay?" "Alright," Donna muttered, looking down, fiddling with her hands, and pouting, "Grown-ups always say they're busy and like to say 'soon.""
Sadie was momentarily speechless. She always thought they were just kids, but they understood a lot.
Just then, Jesse rushed over. "Ms. James!"
Sadie handed the kids to Arya and followed him aside, asking, "Is everything set?"
"Yeah, everything's set," Jesse said quietly. "To keep things low-key, I'll take a commercial flight back to Country E. Once there, I'll hit up Terry first. After I get the deets, I'll report back to you." "Alright," Sadie patted his shoulder, "Stay safe!"
"We're heading out now. The kids are in your hands," Jesse said seriously, bowing deeply to Sadie.
Behind him, the other seven bodyguards also bowed to Sadie in unison, showing their respect.
"Stay safe and take care," Sadie insisted.
She felt emotional. People always said Tristan was ruthless, but his crew was so loyal and ready to follow him to the end. It showed that his kindness and sincerity were for those he trusted. "Thanks, Ms. James," Jesse said. He turned and walked over to the kids, patting their heads and speaking gently, "Kids, I gotta go for a bit. While I'm gone, you gotta listen to your aunt, okay?" "Jesse, where are you going?" Emma asked, looking puzzled.
"Jesse, are you going to replace Daddy? Can you take this to Daddy for me?" Mary asked, handing him the leaf she had just picked up, her eyes full of hope.
