Alexander heard Saniogo's words and chuckled, "I've already asked people to tidy up. There are two rooms, one for Adrienne, and another for Alastair."
"You should've told me earlier," Saniogo rolled his eyes at him. He turned around and looked at the children. "Let's go. I will take you to your rooms."
"Okay." Adrienne was holding the gift that Alexander gave her. If it hadn't been for her mommy's words, she would have opened it long ago.
Alexander was also happy to see the two children. It was the first time they met so it was not appropriate to welcome them empty-handed.
After looking around the rooms, Adrienne came down and held onto Everleigh's leg. She said, "Mommy, my room is so beautiful and everything is in pink. Alastair likes black and white, but it turns out that his room is all blue."
"Alastair likes black and white. Have someone come to change it tomorrow," Saniogo told the butler.
The butler understood and turned to make a phone call. He asked the workers to refurbish the
room.
"You don't have to go through so much trouble. Whichever color it is, it'll be fine," Everleigh spoke up helplessly.
"No, since you're back at home, it has to be comfortable," Saniogo replied. It was rare for them to stay with him, so he couldn't let his grandnephew feel unhappy.
Alexander knew that his father liked children, but he did not expect that he would do all these for them.
Just then, his phone rang but he hung up without a second thought. "I'm going to the study to take care of something. I'll come and chat with you later."
"Okay. Uncle Alexander seems very busy," Adrienne said in a childish tone.
Everleigh, on the other hand, was already used to it. Her father had been the same when they were young.
They sat in the living room and chatted with each other. Alastair kept silent the entire time. After drinking a few more cups of water, he wanted to go to the bathroom.
"I'm going to the bathroom."
"Have the servant bring you there," Saniogo instructed someone to lead the way for him.
Alastair shook his head and said, "I can go by myself. It's the third room on the left on the second floor."
"Alastair is really good at memorizing."
Everleigh smiled and said nothing. She never had to worry about him because he was very sensible.
When Alastair finished using the bathroom and walked out, he saw that the door opposite was half- closed. Through the crack of the door, he could see that Alexander was working. After thinking for a moment, he pushed the door open and went in.
"Uncle."
"You're here. Come and have a seat," Alexander said. Alastair walked over to him. When he looked at the piles of documents on his desk, he felt troubled.
He reached out his little hand and took one of them to have a look.
"Alastair, do you understand the documents?" Alexander saw the serious look on his face; it looked as if he really understood it.
Alastair didn't answer his question. He stared at the document with a frown. "Uncle, the price is wrong. The market price is 36.50 dollars. It'll be too much to purchase it."
Alexander raised his eyebrows slightly, and his eyes were full of surprise. "How do you know?" "There is a stock in my grandpa's company which is the same as yours. You buy it at the lowest price and sell it at a high price," Alastair explained.
All of a sudden, Alexander didn't know how to describe his own feelings.
"Look at this." He handed the document to him. Alastair raised his head and glanced at Alexander before he focused on the document in his hand.
A few minutes later, he asked slowly, "Uncle, do you want to acquire this company?"
"We are planning to for now."
"I would advise you not to buy it. This company is in a huge debt. It's obvious that they'll run away."
