Chapter 83: The Expensive Ice Cream

Back home, Finn Lewis began introducing each room in the house to Zoe, including how to use different things. The beautiful rooms distracted Zoe for a while, but after touring the entire house, the cheerful little girl once again became sullen.

Finn was somewhat at a loss and hurriedly asked, “Zoe, tell your brother, what’s the matter? Why aren’t you happy again?”

“Nothing. I’m really happy. I’m just thinking how wonderful it would have been if Grandma were alive to live in such a big house,” Zoe whispered with her head down.

Finn squatted down and, stretching out his hand, grabbed her tiny shoulders. He spoke earnestly, “Zoe, Grandma has gone to another world, but she’ll continue watching you. If you remain sad, Grandma would also be upset. Think about it, wasn’t Grandma happy when you were happy and laughing, and saddened when you were upset?”

Zoe thought for a moment and then nodded her head. “So, you must be happy, Zoe. That way, Grandma, seeing you be so joyful from the other world, would also be very content. Also, after some time, your brother will find a school for you. You’ll study hard, get into college, and by then, Grandma will be even happier, right?”

“Yes! Zoe will go to school, get into college, and thank you, brother!” Zoe shook her little fist and then replied earnestly.

“Such a good girl.” Finn immediately kissed her cheek, then spoke, “You’ve just viewed many rooms, Zoe, so now you can pick one for yourself. Afterward, your brother will buy you lots and lots of toys, okay?”

“1…1 want to sleep with you, brother.” Zoe hesitated before speaking.

Uh, Finn choked. There was no issue with her sleeping with him, but young as she was, she was a girl after all and around five or six — it could be somewhat inconvenient. Plus, Finn did not know what to consider as a girl.

“Zoe is a big girl now. You should live in a room of your own. Or you could stay with Ann if you wish. Your brother could tell you stories every night. How does that sound?” Finn, after pondering over it, quickly thought of a solution.

“Fine.” Zoe nodded in agreement. The little girl was so mature, knowing not to be a burden. “Then, I’ll stay in the room across from yours.”

“Alright!” Finn immediately agreed. She could stay in whichever room she desired.

Finn then took Zoe downstairs, just as Olivia Lee and Lydia King returned, their hands full of snacks.

“Young master.” Spotting Finn in the room, the two hurriedly greeted him.

“These are the snacks we bought for Zoe.”

On seeing the snacks, Finn’s eyes lit up. He motioned for the women to bring them over and then directed at Zoe, “Zoe, you can help yourself to whichever snacks you like.” Zoe curiously rummaged through the two bags of goodies for quite a while before finally lifting her head to look at Finn, saying, “Brother, I… I… I want to eat ice cream.”

“Oh, I’ll go and buy some now,” Olivia immediately offered.

“Sister, do you know where to get it?” Zoe asked Olivia.

“Yes, sweetie. You just stay here patiently and your sister will bring some back for you,” Olivia gently pinched Zoe’s cheek before assuring her. Olivia then left to buy ice cream for Zoe, so Lydia started to play a game with Zoe. Finn quietly heaved a sigh of relief. Despite being so sensible, coaxing Zoe was still tiresome, let alone an unruly child. It’s no wonder people speak of “bear children”, the term was absolutely fitting.

Seems like I need to go home as soon as possible. Zoe needs identification to go to school. But since Auntie King raised Zoe, where can we get her identity proof? So, we need to formally adopt her first, then get her identity proof. My parents will need to come for this matter, besides, they surely love being around children. When Finn Lewis started college, his mom asked him to find someone and give her a grandchild, and there was Finn’s grandpa too.

It didn’t take long before Olivia Lee came back. The packaging she was holding suggested that there was a shop nearby. However, when she placed the ice cream in front of Zoe, Zoe was confused and asked, “What is this?” “It’s the ice cream you asked for.” Olivia Lee said smilingly.

“But it’s not what I asked for.” Zoe shook her head. “I told you, you wouldn’t be able to find it. But you insisted you could.”

“Zoe, this is delicious.” Finn Lewis hurriedly chimed in.

“But…brother, I want the ice cream that I asked for.” Zoe hesitated a bit before she said it. Seeing the longing in Zoe’s eyes, Finn sighed and decisively said, “Alright, let’s go. I will take you to buy it.”

“Yay, thanks, brother.” Zoe immediately jumped off the couch. “But, that ice cream is so expensive. I wanted to buy it many times but couldn’t bring myself to do that.”

Olivia Lee and Lydia King exchanged glances, was there an ice cream even more expensive than Haagen-Dazs?

“You drive, we’ll go buy ice cream.” Finn said to Olivia Lee. “Lydia King, we have chosen the room opposite to mine for Zoe. You go and take a look, then find a decoration company to ask about what furniture should be used for a kid’s room. ”

“Yes, young master.” Lydia King quickly nodded her head.

The three of them left the building. Olivia drove Finn’s black G65. Now that Zoe was back, they didn’t need to leave that car there anymore. Finn and Zoe sat in the back seat. As soon as they got into the car, Finn gave Olivia the address of the place. Olivia gave Finn a doubtful glance, were there good ice creams sold there?

The place where Finn lived was not too far from there. In less than twenty minutes, Olivia parked the car along the road. Then Finn took Zoe out of the car and naturally, Olivia followed them off.

“Brother, that’s the one.” Zoe pointed at an ice cream booth on the roadside and said. Finn smiled. Of course he knew. This roadside stand sold ice creams for one yuan each. Last time, Finn watched Zoe hesitating here for ages.

“Go ahead, you can buy it. You don’t need to worry about going hungry anymore, you have a brother now.” Finn said gently.

“Okay.” Zoe went up and took out the few yuans she had in her pocket, picked one yuan and gave it to the ice cream vendor, “Auntie, could you give me an ice cream please?”

“Coming right up. Here you go.” The vendor quickly made an ice cream and gave it to Zoe. Zoe took the ice cream and carefully tasted a bite. Her face filled with contentment. After savoring the taste, Zoe turned to Finn and asked, “Brother, do you want some? I can buy you one.”

“Sure, I will have one too.” Finn smiled.

“Give me another one, please.” Zoe immediately took out another yuan and gave it to the lady. Soon, Finn also had an ice cream in his hand. Olivia Lee, who was standing behind them, was speechless.. Was this the expensive ice cream?
