Abandoned Super Cutie Adopted by Billionaire Clan

Chapter 98

After dinner, when they got back, Kelvin slipped the watch Wendy had sent onto Yvonne’s wrist.

It fit perfectly, no surprise, since it was custom–made for her.

The little girl stared at the dial for a long time. She had no clue how to read it, but that didn’t matter, the design alone had completely won her over.

“Dad, look!” She held up her wrist, her fair little face glowing with excitement.

Her joy was infectious, and Kelvin’s lips curved into a smile. “Ms. Holmes sent this for you,” he said. Til show you how to use it.”

Yvonne was more curious about the sender than the watch itself. She paused for a second, then turned to Kelvin. Is she here too?”

“No, she had someone else bring it over, Kelvin said with a shake of his head.

“Oh.” Yvonne’s excitement dimmed just a little. She hadn’t seen Wendy in days and wondered how she was doing

Still, the fact that Wendy had thought of her, had gone out of her way to send such a beautiful watch, made her heart feel warm and sweet.

Her mood brightened again, and she grinned, stretching out her hand toward Kelvin. Then teach me, Dadr

Kelvin held her wrist gently, his voice low and patient, a smile in his tone as he explained.

Yvonne barely remembered anything he said. All she knew was that she could call Dad with it and, oh yeah, it could take videos.

When they pulled up to the house, Kelvin carried her out, and they headed toward the back door to wait for Taylor.

Standing in front of the towering vermilion doors, Ian let out a deep sigh. “Man, I haven’t properly set foot in the Adler house in ages.”

The last time he was here, years ago, he ha been chased off by the family’s giant Tibetan mastiffs.

Now, glancing at Kelvin, he asked warily, “Your grandpa doesn’t still keep weird pets, does he?”

Kelvin pressed his lips together like he was thinking. “Hmm,” he said casually, “he did bring in a venomous pit viper a couple of days ago. You still wanna in?”

Hearing those words, Ian’s face darkened. Richard was still just as reckless as ever.

As soon as Taylor got out of the car, Kelvin led him inside, leaving lan and his bodyguard behind.

Ian took a few steps toward the entrance but hesitated again when he reached the door.

Yvonne was already nestled on Kelvin’s shoulder, her tiny voice full of confusion. “Mr. Holmes, aren’t you coming in?”

Kelvin turned back, amused by Ian’s hesitation.

Seeing him standing there like that, he lost interest and carried Yvonne inside.

As he walked off, he casually tossed over his shoulder. “Mr. Holmes is probably too scared to come in.”
