Chapter 4633
āBrother! Brother!ā
Belle shouted after her brother while running.
But Maverick had already run too far ahead to hear her.
Belle grew anxious, thinking her brother was being mean for not waiting.
Zachary and Serenity followed from behind at a steady pace.
Zachary kept calling out, āBelle, donāt run too fastāwatch your step!ā
The little girl would run for a bit, then stop and glance back at her parents. Each time, sheād point in the direction her brother had gone and shout again, āBrother! Brother!ā
She was clearly blaming him for leaving her behind.
Zachary caught up and said with a warm smile, āBrother ran too fast and didnāt wait for Belle, huh? Should Daddy carry you to catch up?ā
Belle nodded with a little hum of agreement.
Zachary scooped her up in his arms, and when Serenity caught up, the three of them continued toward the lotus garden together.
āThat boy runs like the wind,ā Zachary muttered, ādidnāt even think to wait for his sister.ā
Serenity chuckled. āItās been ten days since he saw his great-grandmother. Of course, he missed her. It makes sense heād run straight to her.ā
āBelle doesnāt need to worryāweāre right here. Where could her brother possibly go?ā
Serenity wiped the sweat from Belleās face with a tissue and added, āDonāt worry, sweetie. Weāre home now. Brother isnāt going anywhere. Letās take our time walking. Great-grandmother will come back to the house once she knows weāre here.ā
Belle nodded again obediently.
Meanwhile, the old lady and the others met Maverick halfway.
āGreat-grandma!ā
As soon as Maverick saw her, he picked up his pace again.
āBaby, slow down!ā the old lady called out anxiously. āBe careful not to fall!ā
Still, she moved forward quickly to meet him.
Soon enough, the great-grandmother and great-grandson were face-to-face.
The old lady smiled warmly and reached to pick him up, but Maverick stopped her. āGrandma, Iām a big boy now. Iām too heavy for you.ā
āWho said that?ā she teased. āEven if Iām old, I can still hold you. Come hereālet me see how heavy youāve gotten. Have you been eating and sleeping well at your Uncle Riverās house?ā
She hugged him tightly before putting him back down.
āYou look thinner. Did your uncle not take good care of you? When he gets back, Iām going to scold him for not feeding you properly. You even got tanned!ā
Although she only held him for a brief moment, Maverick was thrilled.
As the first great-grandchild, he held a special place in her heart.
Back when Zachary was young, heād been her favorite grandchildāand now Zacharyās kids, especially Maverick and Belle, were her darlings.
āGrandma, we got a little tanned because we were playing outside,ā Maverick explained. āMom says itās healthy to get some sun. Uncle River is really busy with work. Sometimes he cooks for us, but most of the time we eat out. The foodās not as good as at home, so I didnāt eat much. Maybe thatās why I lost a little weight.ā
Jasmine reached over and pinched his cheek lightly. āBaby, you havenāt lost weight. Your cheeks are still chubby.ā
āAunt Jasmine, Iām not fat!ā Maverick protested, frowning.
His mom always said it was just baby fat and heād slim down as he got older.
