The more he thought about it, the happier he got, circling the room with his hands behind his back, muttering to himself.
"Living close is good! If the couple fights later on, Callahan doesn't even need to leave the building to apologize! When I have great-grandkids, visiting will be convenient too!"
Jarvis found himself at a loss for words, thinking, “You're really thinking far ahead.”
Dante suddenly stopped, narrowing his eyes. "No, I need to send Leilani something else!"
Jarvis was startled. "More? You already sent several crates today..."
Dante waved his hand. "Send a deed! Give her the apartment next to Callahan's! That way if the brat bullies her in the future, she has somewhere to hide!"
Dante took out the pill Leilani had sent him. Smiling so wide his eyes were mere slits, he popped one into his mouth right there, nodding repeatedly.
"Mm! This medicine has a bitter start but a sweet aftertaste. Leilani's skills are excellent!"
While Dante and Jarvis were talking, Talbot and Reese stood nearby. They didn't shy away from the husband and wife duo.
Talbot and Reese listened to the conversation, their expressions turning sour.
Reese forced a smile, feigning concern. "Dad, this medicine... shouldn't we let the family doctor check it first? It was made by an outsider, after all. If something is wrong with it..."
Dante's smile vanished. He shot her a cold glance. "Leilani is a rare medical genius. She cured my heart condition before. If Leilani wanted to harm me, she would have done it then. Why wait until now?"
