Doted by My Seven Brothers novel Chapter 406

Chapter 406 Don't Call Me Nephew

Matthew inexplicably became the messenger between his mother and Nancy, going back and forth between the two on a daily basis.

He couldn't fathom why they needed him to become a messenger when there was obviously a mobile phone that they could use instead!

"Matthew, have some food."

Nancy offered Matthew one of her sister's homemade donuts.

As he pursed his lips and shook his head, he said, "You eat it. I'm not hungry."

She relented and replied, oh, and sat on the school lounge chair with him while she nibbled on the donuts.

The diminutive appearance gave the impression of a little hamster stealing food. Her eyes are big and bright, and her snow-white cheeks are puffed out, which makes him want to poke it.

While Matthew was pondering, he inadvertently poked Nancy in the cheek with his finger. She gave him a wary glance with her large black and white eyes, and he retracted his finger.

"You've got something on your lips."

He responded flatly as Nancy stared at him. His ears, which were covered up by his hair, were slightly flushed.

She didn't doubt him and thanked him in a soft voice.

"This one is for sister."

As usual, Nancy pulled out the letter and handed it to Matthew. She also pulled out a small cage made of woven straw that contained fireflies.

"This is for you, and the fireflies inside will light up at night. It resembles a small lantern and is quite lovely. This small bottle contains flower dew; you should feed them a bit. When you've seen enough at night, release them."

He looked at it and frowned, "You don't have to give me these."

Nancy acted in an archaic manner and often pretended to be an adult.

"Since you are my nephew, I believe it is proper for an elder to give you gifts!"

As soon as Mathew heard this, his eyelids began to twitch.

"Tomorrow is Saturday, and I'll see you on Monday."

Nancy waved goodbye to Matthew and hurried back to class on her short legs.

He stared at the small cage about the size of the palm of his hand, and the fireflies contained within were still and quiet.

What sort of present should he give her in return?

During this time, the Brook family noticed something odd about Nancy, such as the fact that she would occasionally bring small items home. However, Marcus stumbled upon an envelope in her school bag.

Sometimes they would also find her lying on the table writing something intently as if she were replying to a letter.

The Brook family was alarmed by the realization that something was amiss.

Though she was still a child, she grew up beautifully. Most children in today's society are advanced for their age; young boys in kindergarten were able to court and refer to the adorable young girls there as their wives.

Since their precious Nancy was so well-mannered and attractive, they feared that those filthy outsider brats would attempt to kidnap her.

On this particular day, her parents and brothers gathered around her and began to probe her with questions.

"Sweetie, what have you been up to these days?" James inquired.

Then, Martin added, "Did any strange little boys approach you and offer you anything?"

"In particular, letters?" Louis questioned.

Marcus nodded and said, "Yeah!"

As several pairs of eyes scrutinized her, Nancy appeared small, weak, and innocent.

"No."

When they heard her response, their heart sank.

Oh no, did some brat cheat on their little girl!

"Nancy, think carefully. Is it true that there is nothing to it?"

The child thought deeply for two seconds before uttering an ah.

The eyes of grandpa, mom and dad, and brothers suddenly lit up, and they anticipated a hasty response from her.

"I forget to tell you. Dad, is this the letter you're referring to?"
