Emily turned to the sullen-looking old man who was sitting on the sofa near the stage.

“Right. Should we give him the prize how?”

Louis nodded swiftly. They both opened their backpacks. After taking out a piece of paper, they walked over to Rowan.

However, two meters from the sofa, Sean stopped their steps. “You can’t cross the border.”

Seeing Sean’s fierce look, Emily furrowed her eyebrows and hid

behind her brother’s back. However, Louis wasn’t scared at all. He dared to look up with round eyes.

“Why did we stop here? We wanted to give Grandpa a gift,” Louis asked loudly.

Witnessing Louis’ courage, Rowan raised an eyebrow. His eyes then fell on the paper the toddler was carrying. Curious, he cleared his

throat. Sean immediately made way.

“Good morning, Sir.” Louis took his sister’s hand and stepped forward. “Emily and I are very grateful that you gave us a scholarship. We are also happy we are invited to this cool event. Therefore, we

Emily handed Rowan the paper. Her tiny hands seemed to be shaking.

Seeing that sweet face, Rowan suddenly thought of Kara. His hatred rose. He was reluctant to take the paper.

Receiving such rejection, Emily’s furrowed brows deepened. She was confused and turned to Louis as if asking for help.

“Sir, my sister gave you a gift. Why don’t you want to accept it? That’s rude,” Louis said, shaking his head in surprise.

“You’re the ones who are rude. Who taught you to wear sunglasses when talking to an old man? This is indoors. You’ve made that

mistake twice.”
