Chapter 1594 At Jamieson Group

Brooklyn was rather straightforward, always speaking her mind.

Just then, Queenie walked over, looking slightly flustered. "Brooklyn, don't scare Ceci," she chided.

Only then did Brooklyn snap out of her enthusiasm, releasing Cecilia from the embrace. Her gaze shifted to Elliot, who was standing a few steps away.

Elliot, sensing the shift in attention, quickly took a step back. "Ma'am, please, don't hug me," he said, his voice polite but firm.

Brooklyn let out a hearty laugh, "Oh, I'm your grandaunt, sweetie."

Elliot frowned and turned his head away, "I don't have a grandaunt."

Brooklyn didn't seem the least bit offended; instead, she chuckled and crouched down to Elliot's level. "But I really am your grandaunt, whether you like it or not. Come on, let your grandaunt give you a hug." "No," Elliot replied firmly, taking another step back.

Queenie quickly intervened, gently pulling Brooklyn aside. "All right, enough. The child is just shy."

Elliot scoffed. I'm not shy. I'm only here to protect my mom. Otherwise, I wouldn't have bothered to come.

Brooklyn finally relented, her gaze shifting back to Nathaniel, now filled with admiration. The playful spark she had shown earlier faded, replaced by a more composed demeanor.

"Mr. Rainsworth, I've heard so much about you," she remarked warmly.
