Chapter 56 Brother-in-law, are you tricking me? "Nora, call him Uncle,” Lachlan said as they stood outside the gates of the kindergarten at 4:30 in the afternoon.

Lachlan held Nora's tiny hand and pointed to Mason.

Nora timidly replied, "Hello, Uncle.”

Lachlan then gestured towards Mason's two henchmen. "And say hi to your uncles too!"

Dennis and Jeremy Raymond chuckled awkwardly at having to put on a fake smile for a little girl. It was quite out of character for them, considering their rough demeanor as thugs.

Mason knelt down and scooped up Nora into his arms. "Ha ha! My lovely niece! Come here and give me a kiss!"

Later that afternoon, Mason joined Lachlan in leaving the Lowe Family Mansion together with Dennis and Jeremy in tow. He even invited Lachlan over for some gambling at his Gold Coast Club.

If he won, it would be considered Lachlan's victory; if he lost, it would be on him.

Knowing that Lachlan was coming to pick up Nora later that day, Mason decided to tag along with his henchmen who were now responsible for escorting her safely back home from school every day. Lachlan didn't need Mason's protection, so he set his sights on getting closer to the child. He tried every trick in the book to get closer to Lachlan.

Nora seemed a bit uncomfortable being held by Mason, and when she called out "Daddy!" she turned her head and looked at Lachlan for help. Miranda scolded her brother for being too familiar with Nora, saying "Why kissing? She doesn't even know you."

Mason chuckled awkwardly and muttered under his breath, "But I'm her uncle..."

That night, Mason treated everyone to dinner. By the end of the meal, Nora had warmed up to him enough that she gave him a kiss on the cheek.

Mason was known as an intimidating figure but now he was laughing like a flower in bloom.

Miranda couldn't believe how close her little brother had gotten with her husband.
