Chapter 1510
“Sis, we’re at the kindergarten.”
The sound of Byran’s voice snapped a dazed Ellinor back to reality.
“Alright, I’ll go get them. You guys wait in the car.” She said.
With that, Ellinor got out of the car and walked alone towards the kindergarten’s entrance.
Byran watched Ellinor walk away with a touch of concern. “Bro, is… is Sis okay?” He muttered.
“Do you even have to ask?” Balfour’s worried gaze also rested on Ellinor’s retreating figure. “If it wasn’t for your meddling today, Ellinor wouldn’t even know about Theo and Sophia!”
Byran knew he’d messed up. He hung his head and sighed.
In no time at all, Ellinor reappeared, leading the three little ones out of the kindergarten.
Balfour and Byran got out of the car one after another.
“Uncle!”
“Uncle!”
As soon as Baber and Layla saw Balfour, they rushed towards him.
Balfour squatted down and opened his arms, embracing the two little ones with a full heart.
Only ‘Adrian’ seemed a bit reserved, clinging to Ellinor’s side, holding her hand, and calling out meekly, “Uncle.”
With Baber and Layla in his arms, Balfour looked up at ‘Adrian’ stuck to Ellinor’s side.
He knew that the child was not Adrian but the kid that Theo had stolen away three years ago, the one that man had named Tristan.
And Ellinor hadn’t noticed anything amiss yet.
Byran stood to the side, pouting and crossing his arms. “Hey, hey, hey, you three rascals. You can’t just call out to big uncle. What about me? Your little uncle. Don’t you see me?”
Little uncle?
All three kids turned their attention to Byran.
Baber had met Byran when he was a baby, so he still had some memory of him.
But ‘Adrian’ and Layla were seeing him for the first time. They didn’t know him.
The kids looked at the self-proclaimed little uncle, then at Balfour, seemingly comparing the two men’s appearances. They did look kind of similar, didn’t they?
Then, the three of them turned back to Ellinor with questioning eyes, waiting for their mommy to give them the answer.
Ellinor nodded at the children. “Yes, he’s Mr. Howard’s younger brother. You can call him ‘uncle.”
With their mother’s confirmation, Layla was the first to approach Byran, tilting her little face up at him and asking in a cute, haughty way, “Will you, little uncle, be as nice to us as big uncle?”
Byran laughed at the little girl’s antics. He reached out to tap her small nose and said, “Of course! As your little uncle, I love to spoil kids. I can teach you all how to play video games. I’m really good at that!”
While Layla wasn’t interested in video games, Baber’s and ‘Adrian’s’ eyes lit up.
“Little uncle, what video games do you know how to play?”
“Little uncle, when can you teach us to play video games?”
Just as Byran was about to answer, he was cut off by a warning cough from his older brother. “Don’t you dare start teaching them mischief as soon as you’re back! They’re still young; their eyes can’t be glued to screens for long periods.”
