Chapter 148

The atmosphere was bright and cheery as the group made their way into the living room, where Phillipremained sullen-faced in his wheelchair.

When he saw Elizabeth coming, his eyes swirled over and immediately grew wide.

“Mmmph…”

He wanted to raise his hands, but he failed to and the wheelchair began to move instead.

The nurse hurried over at once. “Old Mr. Arnold, you need to calm down. Here, take a deep breath.”

Elizabeth began to gloat when she saw Phillip’s reaction.

If you’re that excited now, you’d probably faint when you finally get to see Isaac’s children.

Sylvie sat down beside Phillip and stuck her hand out to him.

“Handsome Grandpa, do you want some candy?”

Phillip had calmed down a little, but when he saw Sylvie sticking her hand out to him and heard hersweet voice, he grew excited again.

His eyes began to roll, and it gave Elizabeth a fright.

“Take Old Mr. Arnold back to his room and don’t bring him back out tonight.”

The servants and nurse started to push Phillip back to his room. He twisted around and cried out inmuffled sounds, but no one understood that he did not want to leave.

He wanted to stay with the children and play with them, but no one got his message.

It fell quiet once more when his door closed behind him.

Sylvie unwrapped the lollipop and popped it into her mouth.

“It’s so sweet!”

Both Scott and Stellan sat up straight, and they had a cold and distant aura that attracted the servants’attention.

Patricia passed the fruit and tea over to the servants. “Old Mrs. Arnold, I brought some fruits and tea foryou and Old Mr. Arnold. It’s nothing much compared to what you’re used to, but it’s just a littlesomething from me.”

Elizabeth brushed it off with a wave. “You didn’t need to bring anything. I’m more than pleased thatyou’ve come to see me. Thank you, Tricia.”

Elizabeth was dressed in a simple maroon blouse and skirt that made her look elegant and refined.

Her silvery hair was styled nicely, and her smile was warm and inviting.

Scott and Stellan did not say anything as they sat there observing everything around them. This wastheir habit ever since they were children. The first thing they did in an unfamiliar environment was tostep back and observe.

Meanwhile, Sylvie flitted around like an energetic little puppy. She continued to suck on her lollipop asshe ran around looking at and touching everything.

The more Elizabeth looked at them, the more suspicious she got.

She decided to ask Isaac and see if he had ever made an irresponsible choice in the past.

Patricia noticed how Sylvie had made herself right at home, so she got up and walked over to her.

“Sylvie, where are your manners? You shouldn’t run around touching things that don’t belong to you.”

Sylvie’s eyebrows quirked up. “I’m just touching everything that looks nice. Am I not allowed to touchthem?”

Patricia chuckled at that, she glanced at the servants who were all staring at Sylvie. They must bethinking that she’s behaving like an uneducated little girl.

This is embarrassing!

Elizabeth noticed how the two boys were not eating any candy, so she called out to them.

“Scott, Stellan, if you don’t want any sweets, have some fruits instead.”

“Thank you!” Scott said.

As for Stellan, he grinned brightly and said, “Thank you, Pretty Granny!”

Elizabeth got up. “Tricia, go ahead and make yourself comfortable. I’ll pop into the kitchen for amoment.”

Patricia had been trailing behind Sylvie in case the child did anything foolish, so when she heardElizabeth, she turned around and said, “Alright, Old Mrs. Arnold.”

Elizabeth went into the kitchen and called Isaac. It took a while before he answered.

“What is it, Gran?”

“Can’t I just give you a call, Isaac?”

He was a stubborn child who would always greet her with that sentence whenever she called him,much to her annoyance.

“Of course not, Gran, but I’m busy right now. Why don’t I call you again later?”
