Elizabeth walked over to Phillip and snorted when she saw him munching on candy.

Her brows creased slightly as she said, “Phillip, do you want to join us for dinner?”

Phillip looked up at Elizabeth and nodded.

Elizabeth chuckled when she saw that. “I think I know why you got upset earlier. Is it because I sent you back to your room?”

Everyone laughed at her comment. Sylvie looked around the room and muttered to Phillip, “Don’t feel upset, Handsome Grandpa. They’re not laughing at you.”

Sylvie had always been a quick-witted child who warmed up to people instantly. She had done the same with both Elizabeth and Phillip.

Patricia was not worried about her three children, as they seemed to get along very well with the older generation. Ever since they were toddlers, they would try to initiate conversations with any older folks they met.

Even as babies, they would gurgle and chatter indecipherably, but the older folks would play along and answer them.

Phillip felt disgruntled when he heard Elizabeth’s comment. They did not understand him at all. Why would he be upset over returning to his room?

He was upset that he could not stay with his great-grandchildren, but no one understood him. No one knew what he wanted, so it was only natural for him to lose his temper, right? They were going to be the death of him someday.
