Chapter 262

At the Nelson family’s mansion.

Just as Keith entered the room, he saw Amber feeding Isaac beef stew. Spotting Isaac, Keith immediately felt delighted and greeted, “Hey, Isaac.”

In the living room, Isaac, hearing someone address him, swung his face toward the entrance and sprang from his tiny chair at the sight of Keith. He dashed over, his small feet thudding on the floor, calling out, “Great-Grandpa!”

Keith’s response boomed through the house.

Reaching Keith, Isaac hastily arranged Keith’s slippers in front of him, a gesture of care, “Time to change shoes, Great-Grandpa.”

Keith’s heart swelled with warmth as Isaac handed him the slippers. Slipping his feet into them, Keith scooped Isaac up, “What a sweet great-grandson I’ve got.”

Though well into his eighties, and usually attended by household staff, Keith found lifting Isaac effortless, as if Isaac infused him with vitality.

Isaac giggled at Keith’s praise, his laughter as natural as if he had never been coached by

Estrella on how to charm.

Holding Isaac close, Keith observed, “This child is so much like Estrella, always smiling with such a pleasant disposition.”

Amber rolled her eyes at Keith and took Isaac into her arms, “If he’s so sweet, why are you pushing Jason to go on those silly dates?” Then to Isaac, she said, “Come on, honey, let’s leave him be and go finish our stew with me.”

Amber, feeling the strain of carrying Isaac, set him down and led him by the hand. Keith muttered aside, “Haven’t I dropped that subject? Didn’t I say it’s up to Jason to decide?” He didn’t quite feel right sharing with everyone that he had just been to see Estrella.
