“All right, the kids are here. Let’s not discuss this now,” Nieva said with a laugh. “Where did you two manage to get these kids from, anyway? Did their parents give their consent?”

Josiah nodded. “I’ve already spoken with their parents. They are siblings. The older sister is named Nilou, and the younger brother is named Rhizone.”

Lysander introduced Nieva to the siblings by saying, “This is Mdm. Nieva and her daughter.”

The voices of Nilou and Rhizone rang out in unison. “Hello, Mdm. Nieva.”

When Nieva saw the two adorable and polite children, she immediately went up to pinch Nilou’s check. Turning to Rhizone, the boy who was carrying Nilou’s bag, she said, “You’re so young and already helping girls carry their bags. What a little gentleman you are.”

Rhizone shyly let out a soft laugh.

Nilou noticed a delicate little girl sleeping in the baby stroller next to her, carved as if from jade and blushed with pink. She took out a straw origami and handed it over, saying, “Mdm. Nieva, this is a gift for the baby.”

“So sweet! I thank you on behalf of the little girl,” Nieva said. When she mentioned Aurora, a fleeting sadness passed through her eyes.

Lysander astutely noticed and expressed her concern, asking, “You’ve prepared so much stuff. Are you planning on having Aurora stay with us for a long time?”

Right next to the baby stroller were piles of packages, all filled with baby products.

Upon witnessing the situation, Josiah also realized the severity of the matter. He called someone in, then turned to Nilou and Rhizone, saying, “Play here for a while. If you need anything, just tell this lady. I’ll be back shortly.”

The two children obediently nodded.

After arranging for the staff to take care of the three children, Josiah and Lysander led Nieva into a small room on one side to continue their conversation.
