Back at Garden No. 1, Nathaniel stared at Skylar in disbelief and said, “Skylar, is Adam really the young heir to the Curreys? And I’m talking about one of the Four Great Families.”By the looks on the faces of Naomi, Yulia, and the rest, they were eager to get an answer too.Skylar sure had the heir of the Curreys eating out of the palm of his hand.Nevertheless, Lola was in a little world of her own. As always, she looked up to Skylar, clapping her hands and cheering, “Wow! You scared the baddie away!“My daddy is the greatest daddy in the world!”With a smile, Skylar took the little girl from Yulia’s arms and dotingly brushed his finger along her nose. He said, “You can be just as brilliant if you behave and be a good girl.”“Yes. Teach me how to fight, Daddy. I want to be strong like you!”The little girl gave herself a nod in show of determination.Yulia chimed in, “You’re a girl, Lola. I don’t want you getting into fights.“We have Daddy. He can protect us.”Skylar poked fun, “Yes, the boss has a point. No one can pick on you with me around.”“Boss? Are you calling me bossy?”Blush crept onto Yulia’s pretty face.The man should watch his mouth in front of his elders.With Yulia looking nervous and abashed, Skylar answered with a grin, “I’m kidding. My wife is a bossy CEO in the office, but back home, she’s the sweetest little thing!”“W-What are you saying… Back to the dinner table now!”Sheepish, Yulia pinched Skylar hard in the waist. Nevertheless, she did it obscurely since Nathaniel and Winona were around.Ugh!Skylar sharply gasped before stealing a glance at the group. It appeared everybody saw it because they were in stitches.That was his cue to tone down on the cheekiness.Between laughter and chatter, the family soon returned to the dinner table.After dinner, Nathaniel and Winona could not get enough of Lola, so Skylar and Yulia stayed for a while.Lola was a bundle of joy, reciting poems to grandpa and putting on a dancing performance for grandma. The little girl did not forget to show off her cute charms to Aunt Naomi.She captivated the whole family, putting smiles on everybody’s faces.Happy times tended to fly by.Soon, it was Lola’s bedtime. Seeing that the little girl could barely

keep her eyes open, Nathaniel and Winona did not have the heart to keep her around for longer.“Goodbye, Lola! Drop by more often with your daddy and mommy. We will miss having you around.”Nathaniel and the others reluctantly said their goodbyes to Lola.Lola firmly bobbed her head. “Yes, I love you too, Grandpa, Grandma, and Aunt Naomi!“I’ll bring you lots and lots of tasty food when I come next time.”“Oh, my. I should be one to buy you nice food, my silly girl.”Grinning from ear to ear, Winona simply adored the little girl.Back at home, Skylar fell into contemplation before uttering, “Why don’t we pack up tomorrow and move to Ocean Hill, Yulia?”“Ocean Hill?”It took Yulia a while to grasp what he was talking about.Skylar nodded his head. “Yeah. Dianne bought me a place there when I first returned to Cloudtopia.“The place has the right environment and facilities for Lola to have the perfect childhood. Instead of leaving the place empty, we might as well move there.”
