Chapter 33: Can I Keep Her?

"Grandma, I'm back as promised," Thirteen said with a smile. "And, guess who I brought with me to see you?"

The five-year old moved to the side, and lightly patted his little sister's back, so she would take a few steps forward.

Remi looked at the old lady in front of her with curiosity.

Lady Callista, on the other hand, looked at the adorable child with a smile.

"Your name is Remi, right?" Lady Callista said. "Come here."

Perhaps because of her brother's encouragement, and the old lady's kind gaze, Remi walked towards her grandma with a smile.

"Grandma!" Remi said sweetly, making Lady Callista and Trisha feel the strong urge to hug her.

Lady Callista didn't fight this urge and pulled the little girl into her embrace and hugged her.

"Grandma, good?" Remi asked.

Lady Callista kissed Remi's right cheek before looking at Hans, while still hugging the girl.

"Can I keep her?"

"No."

Thirteen could only smile after seeing this scene. It seemed that his plan to make his Grandma become fond of his adorable sister was a success.

'No one can resist Remi's charms,' Thirteen thought. 'As expected of my little sister.'

Lady Callista couldn't help but kiss Remi's chubby cheeks over and over again, making the little girl giggle in her arms.

When she finally had her fill, she asked Trisha to push her wheelchair towards the garden.

Remi was still seated on her Grandma's lap, and seemed to be very comfortable in her position.

The old lady couldn't help but smile because it had been a while since she had interacted with a child as cute as Remi.

Sure, there were other children inside the Leventis Family Estate, but since they weren't her direct descendants, she didn't care much about them.

Thirteen and Remi were different. They were truly her grandchildren, so the feeling of wanting to spoil them came natural to her.

Hans and Thirteen followed a few steps behind Trisha, who was pushing the wheelchair towards the garden.

But, he wasn't the only one capable of doing this. Almost every heir of the other families shared these qualities, making them stand above their peers.

In the end, they just thought of him as a more intellectual child born from the bloodline of the Leventis Family.

A few hours later, a teary-eyed Remi clung to her Grandma, not wanting to let go.

Lady Callista was also very reluctant to part with her granddaughter, whom she was seeing for the first time.

"Remi, it's fine," Thirteen patted her sister's head. "Grandma will visit you soon. Isn't that right, Grandma?"

"Grandma," Remi said as she looked at Lady Callista with puppy-like eyes. "Visit me?"

"Of course, I will visit you," Lady Callista answered in a heartbeat. "I'll visit you tomorrow if you like."

"Un!" Remi happily hugged her Grandma, making Trisha and Hans smile at the same time.

Their Mistress was smiling the entire time that Remi was with her, making them happy as well.

Just as Thirteen and Remi were about to climb into the car, the two-year-old walked back to her Grandma and stood in tiptoes with her arms spread wide.

Her lips were puckered, making the Old Lady chuckle as she presented her cheeks to her granddaughter, who gave her a sweet, and wet kiss on the cheek.

After kissing her grandma, she walked back to her brother and held his hand.

"Bye bye, Grandma," Thirteen said with a smile. "See you tomorrow."

"Bye bye!" Remi also waved her hand before going inside the car.

Even when inside the car, Remi was still waving at Lady Callista, which made the older woman wave to her as well.

A minute later, the car left the Everlasting Villa, making the old lady sigh as she leaned back in her wheelchair.

She felt very happy ever since she met Thirteen. The child was very sweet, obedient, and intelligent.

But, after seeing Remi, her heart melted, making her remember the time when she was raising her own children, when they were still young and clung to her everyday.

"Trisha, make sure to prepare my best dress tomorrow," Lady Callista ordered.

"Understood, My Lady," Trisha replied. "Should I also ask Hans to buy a toy that we can give Remi tomorrow as a gift?"

Lady Callista smiled and nodded her head. "Good idea. Make sure to buy gifts for Zion and his two siblings as well."

Trisha nodded before pushing the wheelchair back inside the residence with a smile on her pretty face.
