Chapter 666 A Woman Causes Trouble

"Isn't it a hassle?" Kelvin asked.

"Not at all," Connor said, waving his hand. "I'm stoked!"

Connor was genuinely happy. Whenever he talked about Sam, his eyes lit up, and he couldn't stop grinning.

"This kid is a genius. I've never seen anyone so sharp. He picks up everything after just one go! I took him fishing, and he was like my little sidekick. He knew the best spots, where the fish were biting, and he was all over the place, super efficient. Even the other folks fishing nearby were impressed. It was awesome having him around."

Kelvin nodded with a faint smile, but inwardly scoffed. Sam had even charmed Connor. Was there anyone he couldn't sway?

Kelvin saw Sam's potential, but as a dad, he couldn't ignore Sam's interest in Lucy!

After finishing his praise, Connor kept sipping his tea with a smile.

"By the way, Dad," Penelope said. "When you have some free time, I'll set up a meeting with Nicole. She's mentioned wanting to visit you a few times."

"Nicole? Just her?"

"Yeah."

Connor looked puzzled.

"It's a long story," Penelope said with a bitter smile. "Dad, the Mitchell family stuff is super complicated."

Connor got it. "Alright, no need to explain. I'll go along with whatever you arrange. I'll have to meet the Mitchell family sooner or later anyway."

"No matter what the Mitchell family is like, Dad, you'll always be my dad," Penelope said. "And Mom will always be my mom. We're family, and nothing can change that."

Connor nodded. "Good kid, I'm just happy you always think of me."

"You and Mom raised me for over twenty years. I can never repay that. I'll always remember your kindness," Penelope said sincerely.
