Chapter 369 Another Handsome Guy


"You gotta be Elisa, right? Lookin' all cute and stuff," Tommy bent down, grinning at Elisa.

Elisa giggled. "Yep, Uncle Tommy! You know me? That's awesome!"

"Uncle Josep filled me in," Tommy said, shooting a grateful look at Alaric and Galatea. "My family's been goin' through some stuff, so I needed a change of scenery. I hit up Uncle Josep for help, and he hooked me up with Nexus Innovations. Seriously, I'm super grateful and kinda blown away. Hope I'm not causing too much trouble, Mr. and Mrs. Knight."

Tommy was being all polite, and Alaric quickly replied, "No biggie, just a small favor."

"Yeah, Josep's done a lot for us. How could we not help him out?" Stellan chimed in.

"Thanks a ton," Tommy said, genuinely thankful.

"Uncle Tommy, no need to be so formal. My mom and dad are super helpful, and so are we," Elisa added quickly.

"Elisa, chill out a bit, will ya? You're acting all starstruck," Harry said with a smirk. "So young and already crushing on handsome dudes."

"Hey, it just means I've got good taste," Elisa shot back. "Even though you and Caspian look the same, I only see Caspian's charm. Shows I'm not just about looks; I care about what's inside too." "Whatever, shallow," Harry scoffed.

"Elisa's got a point; as long as she's happy," Caspian jumped in, then turned to Tommy. "Uncle Tommy, I'm Caspian Knight."
