The Old Master was making his way downstairs. He saw this scene as soon as he entered the hall.
The little girl was shorter than the boy, but she looked fearless. She stood in front of a boy who was bigger and older than her.
Her lecturing voice was especially loud and clear that even the Old Master was dumbfounded.
Bethany Hamilton was also stunned and she looked at Juju in disbelief.
Eudora's temples started to throb. Back then, she did not think that Juju would become so domineering. How did this girl grow so much in just a few months?
Bethany had always been kind to her, so Eudora was a little embarrassed. She said quickly, "Juju is still young. I'll take her out right away."
The next second, Old Master's voice boomed behind her.
"I think she did great. This is how a child of the Granger family should act."
Eudora's mouth twitched. She did not expect the Old Master to do things so differently.
The Old Master immediately approached Juju, "Juju, I remember that you like guns very much, right? Grandpa will ask someone to customize one for you, okay?"
Juju finally turned to stare at the old man. She hesitated a little. However, she was still a child so she could not resist the temptation.
"Really?"
Eudora George put her hand on her forehead, "Juju, you're a girl."
What kind of girl would like guns?
Juju ignored her mother and glanced at the Old Master again. "Although you said that you're going to get me a customized gun, that doesn't mean that I will forgive you! I still remember when you were mean to my Mommy back then!"
The Old Master suddenly smiled, "Okay, I allow you to not forgive me."
"It's a deal. When I get my customized gun, I'll then consider forgiving you. At the very least, I will refrain from pulling a long face at you."
"Okay!" the Old Master agreed smilingly.
After that, Eudora left with Juju.
After Juju had gone far, Bethany sighed and said, "Old Master, you will spoil the child like this!"
However, the Old Master was unperturbed, "That child is just like me. She knows what she wants and she would not be spoiled that easily. Unfortunately, she's a girl. If only Juju was a boy..."
At this moment, he saw Vincent's tearful face and he immediately frowned, "Juju is right. A man should do whatever he's supposed to do. Why are you crying?"
Bethany hugged Vincent quickly, "It's my fault. I couldn't comfort him. Old Master, please don't be She then took Vincent's hand hurriedly and left, "Let's go! I'll take you inside to rest. I'll make some arrangements regarding your absence from school today..."
Vincent Granger did not say a word and merely let Bethany carry him inside.
After closing the door, Bethany sighed, "Poor boy, look at you. Your Mommy has done something wrong, so she will no longer be in the Granger family. But it's okay, Grandma will always accompany you, so don't be afraid, okay?"
Vincent looked at Bethany in confusion. He wanted to cry again but when he recalled his fierce grandfather downstairs, he quickly pursed his lips.
