“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.

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

want to give you a gift.”

While occasionally glancing at Sean, Emily came out from behind Louis’ back. “We just bought colored pencils. So, we decided to give you our first drawing.”

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
