"Do what she wants, Erik. Reply to their emails and say that Miss Claire can't et anyone indefinitely," Aaron chid in.
"The Smiths Family have been well-known for their generosity and friendly deanor, it's okay to turn them down once in a while," he added.
Claire who heard that was silent, her brow furrowed faintly. She knew a little about the Smith Family, she suddenly felt guilty about what she had just said. She was afraid that the rejection would have a bad impact on the family's image that had been built for a long ti.
"Leave it alone, Uncle. If they want to visit, let them co," Claire said after weighing it up.
"No."
"I don't care what they say. What matters to is how you feel, don't push yourself if you don't want to. After all, it won't be that easy if they want to marry my niece. It's fine, you just ca back and they're already waiting in line to take you from ," said Aaron at length.
And that made Claire smile. "Okay, then thank you."
"I want to go back to my room now," she added.
"Co on, Dave," she said to the boy sitting next to her.
"No, Mom. I want to be with Granpa," Dave replied, shaking his head.
"Okay, then don't be naughty, and don't ask for nothing."
"Okay Mommy," Dave replied while waving his thumb.
Seeing his mother gone, the boy then turned to Aaron. "Granpa, I want to play in the park," he said.
"Wait, I called so maids to accompany you."
"Thank you, Granpa."
Aaron just responded with a smile, the man then called a few maids and asked them to take all of Dave's toys to the backyard.
"Take care of him, don't get hurt," Aaron ordered.
"Yes sir," answered several maids almost simultaneously.
"Ah yes, one more thing, don't forget to make milk and other snacks, also obey all his requests," said the man again.
"Yes sir."
And after that, Dave got off the chair and walked out of the room.
Now only Aaron and Erik were left in the dining room.
"Do you have any other orders, sir?" Erik asked before leaving the room.
"Emm, follow to my room," replied Aaron then rose from his position.
"Okay, sir," He then followed the man, entered the elevator to the third floor, where his bedroom and private room were located, on the floor containing all his private rooms, starting from the gym, swimming pool, and other relaxing areas.
While the floor where Anna was, was also designed almost the sa, only that the woman asked to live on the sa floor as Dave to make it easier for him to monitor her son. Whereas, previously Aaron wanted to prepare each private floor for his niece and granddaughter. Yes, at least I like him.
Dave who had just reached the exit suddenly stopped his steps. The rain suddenly fell, and it made his intention to play outside vanish in an instant.
"Looks like it's raining very hard, young master," said one of the maids.
"Maybe it's better if we just play inside," she added.
"I miss Aunt Naila," Dave mumbled then crouched down and surprise the maids and suddenly did the sa, crouching around the boy.
"Young Master, the air is very cold. We should go inside," said a maid. Now they were right at the door that was wide open, watching the raindrops fall from the roof tiles.
Hearing this, Dave didn't respond and just kept quiet, making the maids who were with him look at each other because they didn't know what to do to get the boy back into the house.
While on the other hand, Erik who had been following Aaron since earlier was already in the sa room as the man, standing a few ters away, waiting for further instructions. As for Aaron, the man just sat behind the window, staring at his cellphone for a long ti without blinking.
Until a few minutes have passed. Aaron started to speak.
"I want you to find out how Claire's life has been since she was in Indonesia," said the man, breaking the silence.
"Find out everything, who her adoptive parents are, who she has been with all this ti, I want you to find out all about her without exception. Don't miss the slightest thing," he added again.
"Okay, sir. I will do as you command."
"Oh yeah, one more thing. I want you to find out what Claire's relationship with this guy nad Devan is, everyone."
"Yes sir."
"My last request might be a little difficult for you, considering that the man is also not a random person," said Aaron.
"I will try my best, sir. Don't worry," Erik replied.
"Em, then you can go," said Aaron.
"Okay sir, excuse ," and in that very second, Erik walked and then turned around, walked towards the door, and disappeared there.
Left alone, Aaron slowly got up from his position, walked to the window side, stayed there for a few minutes, watching the raindrops pouring down so heavily on the earth.
Even though his nephew had returned, the worry within him had not gone away. His mind never left the woman, even though Claire seed fine, but Aaron felt that it was just the outward appearance.
He didn't know, he was also confused why his gut feeling said sothing like that.
A heavy sigh escaped his lips again.
"Brother, your daughter has returned. I promise to look after her until she finds the right man for her," she monologued, looking up at the dark sky.
"Dave," suddenly he panicked when he rembered that earlier the boy had wanted to play in the back garden, whereas it was raining heavily right now.
He imdiately turned around, but at the sa ti, there was a knock on his door.
Knock...knock...knock...
Swiftly, Aaron opened the door and saw Erik reappearing there.
"What is it?" Aaron asked.
"Young Master Dave, sir. He's been..."
"What about Dave? Where is he now?" said Aaron imdiately walking out of the room.
"Young Master is playing in the rain downstairs, sir," said Erik, following behind the man.
"Why are you just saying it now? Where's the maid looking after him?" asked Aaron in a very worried tone of voice, they were currently walking towards the elevator with hasty steps.
"They're still trying to stop Young Master, sir," Erik replied that instant.
"Don't tell Claire about this. I'm afraid she will worry about her son," Aaron said.
"Get a towel and thick clothes, quick," he ordered and at that mont the elevator doors opened. Imdiately took wide strides, leaving Erik without waiting for his response.
Imdiately headed to the back door, and sure enough, his eyes caught a boy who was none other than his grandson, seed to be running around with his whole body soaking wet.. While the three maids were running behind him, looking like they were chasing after them like fools.
