Chapter 263

Knock! Knock!

At that moment, Nancy entered with big bags of toys in her hands.

Ever- since she left Angeline's home, she was so busy that there was no sign of her for a couple of days.

“What bring you here all of a sudden?” Angeline was delighted to see her friend. “Also, why did you buy so many things?”

Nancy responded with a snort before placing the items on Sebastian's bed.

Grinning widely, she explained, “Stop being so narcissistic. I bought all these for my godson. Although a long time has passed since he was discharged from the hospital, I, his godmother', haven't had the opportunity to visit him before this.”

She then gave Sebastian's hair a tousle. “Darling, open them up and see if you like them!”

Sebastian looked up at Nancy before glancing in Angeline's direction.

“Go ahead.”

With her approval, he mustered the courage to begin unwrapping the gifts.

Given how short a child's attention span was, Sebastian was now focused on the toys in contrast to clamoring for Floretta earlier.

As for Nancy, she was more ecstatic than he was when he didn't seem to resent her gifts.

After settling Sebastian down, Nancy was about to discuss business with Angeline when she noticed Anna's presence.

In an apologetic tone, she greeted tire latter, “Oh, I didn't realize you were here, Dr. Bearbock. I'm sorry to have missed you.”

“Don't worry about it.” Hands in her pocket, Anna flashed a casual smile. “We just finished for today, and I was about to take my leave.”

“But you haven't eaten...”

Just when Angeline wanted to persuade her to stay, Nancy's frosty voice rang out. “In that case, thanks for coming, Dr. Bearbock. I'll let you show yourself out.”
