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.

“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
