Chapter 43
Although Tristan’s looks lost slightly to her baddie daddy's, he was still a handsome guy.
Tristan was stunned. He did not know how to react to Isabel's comments.
Betty and the other girls were also caught off guard. They did not expect the little girl to be a simp for handsome men. Sylvia's face twitched helplessly at her daughter's comment. She said resignedly, “Isabel, speak properly to Uncle Tristan.” Isabel pouted. “Fine, but Uncle Tristan is really handsome.” Sylvia was speechless.
Tristan burst into laughter. He bent over and wanted to pinch the little girl's cheek, but Liam stepped in and stopped him. With caution, the boy said, “You mustn't simply touch a girl's face.” Tristan was caught by surprise. Isabel widened her googly eyes and said, “But you can pat me on the head.”
Her meek voice was cute, and it complemented her cute and energetic features.
Tristan smiled and patted her head.
“You and your brother sure are cute,” he said.
Isabel showed a smirk, as though she agreed with what Tristan said. Liam remained quiet. There was barely any reaction on his face, but his eyes were carefully sizing Tristan up from top to bottom. Tristan furrowed his brows slightly. He somehow felt pressured by the three-year-old. A moment later, he regained his composure and said to everyone, “You guys can go in first.”
The group then went inside. He then turned around and put his hand out. “Isabel, may I pick you up?” Isabel turned to Liam who declared, “A girl mustn't be simply carried by other men.”
Isabel nodded.
Tristan was once again speechless. He was just trying to carry a three-year-old but was denied by her brother.
He helplessly looked at Sylvia, but she could not do anything as well. She smiled and said,” Let's just go in first.”
Tristan nodded with a smile. “Okay.”
The group finally entered the club.
The club had many different sections with distinctive features and functionalities. Betty and the others went for the adult attractions, which were not suitable for kids. On the other hand, Sylvia brought Isabel and Liam to the kids’ amusement section instead.
To her surprise, Tristan followed them.
“Tristan, I can look after them alone. Why don't you go play with the others?” Sylvia said.
Tristan sat beside her and watched the kids playing with toy race cars. He said, “I don't like what they are playing.”
Since he insisted, Sylvia simply allowed him to stay and did not dwell further on the topic. Meanwhile, at the Carters’ mansion, Odell finally came back from Lake Victoria Villa. He parked his car in front of the gate and came down with a bunch of toys that he had bought from the toy shop However, the living room was devoid of cheerful children’s voices. Only Madam Carter and the servants were chatting. Both the rascals who could turn the house upside down were nowhere to be found today.
“Grandmother, where are Isabel and Liam?” Odell asked.
“They went out with Syl,” Madam Carter answered.
“Sylvia?” Odell furrowed his brows. “Where did she bring them?”
“Her studio is having a team-building session, so they went to Starz Club.” Odell’'s mood sank. He put the toys down and went out.
