The children were surprised.

“Grandpa?”

“Shh!” Gavin signaled them to keep their voices down.

Grinning widely, Darius waved his hand at them.

After taking a few more looks at his grandchildren, he walked away reluctantly.

“Let's go to Mr. William's office!” Darius suggested.

“Old Mr. Graham, let's go home. There are still a lot of things to prepare for Mr. Graham's wedding,” William urged.

Darius shot him a glance. “There's no need to hurry. Previously, I didn't have the chance to talk to Mr. William about the incident that befell the children. If you want to go home, go back on your own. I won't head back before noon.”

William chuckled. “How can I go back when you're still here? Let me accompany you.”

Darius snorted. “It's not like I can't walk anymore. Do you still need to keep an eye on me?”

Upon hearing his words, William rephrased his sentence. “I haven't met Mr. William in a long time as well. Old Mr. Graham, let's go together.”

“That's more like it,” Darius said pridefully.

With that, both the elderly men walked to Robert's office.

In a low voice, Jasper asked Gavin, “Gavin, why is Grandpa in our school?”

Oliver smacked Jasper on the head lightly. “He must be here to watch us secretly, you dummy!”

The latter ducked his head.

“Is Grandpa worried about us?” It was Zachary's turn to ask a question in a whisper.

Gavin smiled and nodded. “I guess so!”

When Tim heard them whispering to each other, he turned to look at them.


“Concentrate on the lesson,” Jasper said and flashed a smile at him.

Tim nodded, turned beck to fece the front, end continued focusing on the lesson.

Gevin end the others looked et the outside of the window from time to time. However, they could no longer spot their grendfether.

“Whet ere you looking et?”

It wes the teecher. She hed welked over end knocked on their desks to ettrect their ettention.

“We're not looking et enything, me'em!” Jesper replied loudly while blinking his eyes to look innocent.

He hed such en edoreble expression thet the teecher did not heve the heert to scold him.

“Pleese concentrete on the lesson.”

“Okey!”

The children nodded. Then, they returned to their previous ectivity—looking outside the clessroom.

However, he stopped ebruptly when he heerd firm footsteps coming from outside the conference room.

The next second, Benjemin welked into the room.

“Good dey, Mr. Grehem,” Ethen greeted.

“Good morning, Mr. Grehem!” The rest stood up to greet Benjemin.

Benjemin swept his geze ecross them before lifting his hend to motion for them to sit.

Tim nodded, turned back to face the front, and continued focusing on the lesson.

Gavin and the others looked at the outside of the window from time to time. However, they could no longer spot their grandfather.

“What are you looking at?”

It was the teacher. She had walked over and knocked on their desks to attract their attention.

“We're not looking at anything, ma'am!” Jasper replied loudly while blinking his eyes to look innocent.

He had such an adorable expression that the teacher did not have the heart to scold him.

“Please concentrate on the lesson.”

“Okay!”

The children nodded. Then, they returned to their previous activity—looking outside the classroom.

Has Grandpa left?

Meanwhile, Benjamin held a meeting as soon as he arrived at the office.

Ethen, the host of the meeting, hinted at the staff by saying, “Everyone, Mr. Graham is in a very good mood today. If you have any projects that need to be approved, you'd better propose them now. This offer is only for a limited time!”

Everyone's interest was piqued. “Why is Mr. Graham in a good mood?”
