Chapter 426
Just as Ava was disappointed, Frank opened the door and entered.
Seeing that the little girl on the bed had woken up, Frank took off his shoes and lay down beside her again. He asked in a low voice, “Are you up?”
Ava looked at her husband in a daze and said, “Frank, I seem to have forgotten to give you extra points. I want to give you extra points for your performance. You’re already at 91 points.”
He smiled as he fiddled with her hair, his palm pressed against her head. The little girl’s eyes were huge and clear and bright, as if they could draw people in. “Okay. Want to get up?”
He asked again.
“No, give me a hug. There wasn’t much time left. They were going back in four days. Ava wanted to cling to Frank openly.
He definitely had to agree to such a simple request from the little girl. He stretched out his long arm and pulled her into his arms, hugging her along with the blanket.
A muffled voice sounded in his arms. “Let’s not go out today
Up to you.” He gently stroked the back of her head.
Artroyland’s Pigeon Plaza.
Countless pigeons fluttered and landed on the ground. Their pure white feathers seemed to be a thick layer of snow. Their red agate–like eyes and dark red feet stepped on the ground.
They kept chirping. A girl with shoulder–length hair was squatting in front of the countless pigeons. The hair on one side of her face was tucked behind her ear, revealing a round plate earring. As the girl fed the pigeons, it kept swaying. Her tight top vividly displayed her graceful waist, and she was wearing a pair of ripped jeans.
Squatting on the ground, she stretched out her fair and smooth arm and scattered pigeon food. In an instant, the pigeons in the square were attracted by the girl and surrounded her. Their sharp and red little mouths nodded and pecked the ground. In the distance, a well–dressed man pressed the camera button on this beautiful image. There was a click.
A girl with a smile as warm as the sun was squatting on the ground. A group of pigeons surrounded her. The scene was as beautiful as a painting.
With a few swift actions, he set the photo as the wallpaper of his phone.
The girl turned around with a smile, like a ray of light shining into the man’s heart. Her voice was filled with joy. “Edward, look. This pigeon seems to be thanking me. Don’t sit on the bench. Come along.”
Upon hearing this, Edward stood up and glanced at the photo he had secretly taken just now. He stuffed his phone into his pocket and walked to her side. He tugged at his pants and squatted down beside her. “Do you still have pigeon food? Should I buy some more?”
“There’s no need. I won’t feed them after this. If we feed them a little and the others feed them a little, I’m afraid that the pigeons will die. I’ll give you some.”
Edward was speechless. They wouldn’t die, right? After all these years, he had never heard of pigeons dying from being too full.
As he spoke, Rose pulled Edward’s hand and opened it. She placed some pigeon food on top of it and gestured for him to feed them.
Edward was happy to do these things with her. He felt that it was very meaningful. His life had always been calm. He acted according to the scale in his heart. Thinking back, he was quite a failure. There was nothing he did that was especially meaningful.
After feeding the pigeons, Rose stood up. Perhaps because he had been squatting for a long time, her legs were a little numb. After–standing up, Rose did not take a step forward.
She maintained a strange posture. The corners of her mouth twitched. It was hard to explain.
Edward stood up after her. Seeing that she did not move, he looked down at her ripped jeans and guessed that her legs were numb. She had been squatting for more than half an hour. “Numb legs?”
“Yes, a little. Maybe it’s because I’ve been squatting for too long It’s not a big deal, I’ll take a break. At this moment, whenever Rose’s leg moved, it was like many little bugs moving inside her leg. It was so munb that it felt like it had been amputated. It was very uncomfortable.
Without another word, Edward bent down and picked Rose up. He carried her to the bench and sat down. He squatted in front of her again. “Let me massage you.”
There’s no need. It should be fine in a while.”

Chapter 426
After being suddenly rejected, Edward thought that Rose felt embarrassed and awkward, so he let it pass
Seeing that he was stunned, Rose was afraid that he would think too much. In the end, she changed her words. “You should help me massage it. It’s quite numb.
Rose was puzzled. Why did she feel guilty for rejecting Edward? The Depressed Prince should not be taken lightly. When he was depressed, she could not bear it. She, Rose, could be considered to be under his spell.
Edward gently lifted Rose’s leg and placed it on his knee, massaging it through her pants.
“Has anyone ever told you that you’re a very warm man?”
Rose looked at Edward, who was gently massaging her, and asked.
Edward said with certainty, “No.”
“Then what did others say about you? Like a nickname.” Rose, who liked to give others nicknames, was very curious about what kind of nickname Edward had. No one said that such a gentleman was warm.
Did no one say it, or did no one say it in front of him?
It might be the latter.
Edward thought about it as he massaged. He had never interacted much with girls. In the past, he often received love letters on his desk, but no girls gave him nicknames. Kyle often called him this though: Depressed Prince,
“Depressed Prince. A man came up with it.” He sort of gave an explanation.
Who was so brilliant to think the same thing as her? Rose continued to look at the man who was massaging seriously. He was really quite handsome. “The person who gave you this name should be someone who often spends time with you. It’s very appropriate.
Edward said slowly, “My assistant. He’s been with me for a long time. We’re friends in private. I’ll bring you to meet him next time
He indeed knew him better than she did. No wonder the nickname was so appropriate. “Alright, I’m not numb anymore. Let’s go to the next stop.”
Rose retracted her leg. Edward stood up and sat beside her. He turned his head and asked, “Where do you want to go? The pottery studio or the teahouse?”
Edward took the map guide and pointed at the recommendation guide.
Since they were here, they had to do something meaningful. “Let’s go to the pottery studio.”
After deciding on where to go, the two of them took a taxi to a famous pottery studio in Artroyland.
It was very affordable and only cost 30 dollars per person, including sculpting, coloring, and baking.
The teacher saw the two of them walking hand in hand. They were dressed very appropriately. One look and one could tell that they were children from rich families. They had to receive different people every day. After seeing too many of them, one could distinguish the temperament of those who were really rich and fake rich.
As long as you think about it, look at it carefully, and look at the details.
The teacher asked, “What do the two of you want to do? There’s a picture book here. You can choose
As she spoke, the waiter brought the album over. The two of them leaned their heads together to look at it. Because Rose’s hair was shoulder length, it always fell. When Edward saw this, he immediately tucked her hair behind her ear and pursed his lips without saying anything.
A ray of sunlight shone in, and the faint light shone on the two of them, making them look especially compatible.
She stared at the album and thought about it again and again. She took a fancy to a relatively good–looking and simple one that was suitable for Edward. “Edward. Why don’t we make this dual–color cup? What do you think?”
Edward’s original gaze was on Rose’s face. Hearing this, he retracted his gaze and looked down at the album. One was a white cup with a coffee–colored hand, and the other was a green cup with a light green hand. It was very simple and clean. ‘Sure.” “Miss, we’ll do this then. Sorry to trouble you.” Rose politely handed the album over.
The teacher was also especially polite. Alright, let me clarify in advance. This cup takes a long time to fire. It’s not something you can bring away immediately after it’s done today. It takes about 25 to 30 days. Can the two of you accept this?”
Edward glanced at Rose and nodded. “Sure.”
Then, the teacher personally led the two of them to a corner. The two of them looked more cultured. The observant teacher specially arranged for them to sit in a corner and helped arrange the clay. She personally taught them at the side.
Rose took the two aprons and hooked her finger at Edward with one hand. Edward bent down and Rose helped him put on the apron. She looked at his chest and wrapped her arms around his waist as she tied the rope behind.
Chapter 426
This was the first time Rose hugged Edward like this. However, at this moment, Rose only wanted to play with clay. She didn’t have any other thoughts. She just wanted to help tie the apron
However, Edward was different. His gaze was always on Rose from time to time. Today, Rose was especially good–looking. The attentive gentleman also helped Rose with the apron, but her back was facing him and she was leaning against his chest.
The two of them were extremely intimate
One seat for each person. The plate was spinning. Rose maintained her smile the entire time. When the clay touched her hands, she was especially happy. The smile on her lips widened. Her white teeth felt reflective. She was playing happily like a child who had not grown up.
Edward sat at the side. He was infected and his smile widened. He wanted to live like this forever.
A few hours later, the two of them washed their hands and wrote down Edward’s contact information at the front desk. It was going to be sent to the Landor Group.
In the Turner Manor, Ava felt so safe being carried by Frank that she fell asleep immediately. Helpless, Frank could only lie on the bed with her.
When it was almost noon, the little girl slowly woke up.
Feeling the movement in his arms, Frank said in a low voice, “You’re awake.”
They had to find something to do at home. She needed to exercise at night, so she was a little lazy during the day and did not want to go out. “Yes, I’m a little hungry. Frank, what are we going to do in the afternoon?”
Actually, it was fine even if they did not go out. As long as Frank was by her side, Ava was very satisfied.
Frank said calmly, “Anything is fine. What do you want to do?”
The lutle girl seemed to be thinking. Her eyes kept moving and she even frowned, looking like it was very difficult. Frank lay at the side and did not disturb her. She did not speak either. A few minutes later, Ava excitedly picked up Frank’s hand and Taised it in the air. “I’ll teach you how to play the piano and draw in the afternoon.”
After saying that, she even gestured in the air as if she was drawing and playing the piano. It was as if there was really a piano in front of her
The children of the Roberts family did not have much artistic talent. They all developed naturally. Whether it was Grace or William, they did not purposely ask them to learn music, chess, calligraphy, and painting like other children. As long as they wanted to learn, they would learn. If they did not want to learn, they would never force them.
Rose knew how to dance, but she didn’t know how to play the piano or draw. If she did have a talent, it would be buying all sorts of weird things.
Frank chuckled and pinched her exquisite and flawless face. “Up to you. Get up and eat first.”
“Alright, let me think about where to start teaching you.”
The little girl was still thinking when Frank got up and opened the door of the cloakroom. He leaned against the door frame. “Which one do you want to wear?”
She will be at home all day. She did not need to put on makeup or dress up too much. It was better to be more casual. “The sports shorts set. The off–white colored one. The third set.”
Following Ava’s guidance, Frank found the clothes, took them off the cabinet, and handed them to the little girl.
No matter how they communicated at night, the young lady would still be shy during the day. She was too embarrassed to take off her clothes openly in front of him. Frank understood. He tactfully left the room and carefully closed the door.

Rose subconsciously hugged Edward’s neck in case not fall. In front of everyone, she was carried into the villa by Edward.
Behind them, there was an uninterrupted commotion.
When he arrived at the front desk, Edward had no intention of putting her down at all. He only used Arillion to say to the security guard beside him, “Please help me send my luggage up. Thank you.”
Throughout the entire process, Rose was carried upstairs by Edward. She pursed her lips and did not say anything. She did not know what Edward wanted to do. The security guard followed closely behind and helped him bring his suitcase up. Then they immediately went down.
Rose really could not guess Edward’s thoughts. If she did not ask, she would feel uncomfortable. “Edward, what do you mean by this? Didn’t you go to get a room?“,
