Chapter 420: Uncle Sean Lentz_1
Following that, he rubbed the little kitten’s head and said, "You be good and keep your mommy happy, and next time I’ll reward you with some tasty dried fish."
Elly’s kitten, perhaps understanding Adam’s words, actually graced him with a "meow" in response.
When Elly Campbell returned to the house from the backyard, she happened to come across the Old Master and Elly descending the stairs, both looking at her with meaningful glances.
Feeling awkward under the ambiguous gazes of her grandfather and aunt, Elly wanted to change the subject. Just then, she heard Elly exclaim in surprise, "Wow! This kitten is so cute."
Adam, following behind Elly Campbell, was holding the kitten in his arms as Elly approached and snatched Elly’s kitten away from him.
Adam was somewhat reluctant. This was the kitten he had carefully selected for his wife; how could he just give it away to someone else?
But since the person was his wife’s dear aunt and seemed to have a good relationship with his wife, he thought it wasn’t the time to upset her.
Elly, pretending not to notice Adam’s reluctance, walked over to Elly Campbell with the kitten and tentatively asked, "I saw you holding this cat upstairs. Have you named it yet?"
At this question, Elly Campbell instinctively looked at Adam, and thinking of the refined and elegant name Adam had chosen, she found it hard to say out loud.
"Elly...Elly II."
As Elly was taking a small bite of the apple she had picked up from the table, upon hearing the name from Elly Campbell’s lips, she almost choked on her mouthful.
She stared at Elly Campbell’s uncomfortable demeanor, her mouth twitching severely several times as she tried to hold back her laughter. But after a few attempts, she couldn’t contain it any longer and burst out laughing.
What followed was uncontrollable laughter, "Elly II? Hahaha... Elly II? Is he Elly I’s brother?"
Elly Campbell, already struggling to accept the down-to-earth name, became even more awkward upon hearing her aunt’s unrestrained laughter.
However, the "naming expert" Adam strolled over with a calm expression, casually took Elly II back from Elly’s hands, placed him back into Elly Campbell’s arms, and said indifferently, "Yes, Elly II is Elly I’s brother."
Hearing this, Elly let herself laugh even more freely.
She was finding her cool and aloof former nephew-in-law to be quite amusing, especially his serious introduction of Elly II as Elly I’s brother and his possessive act of transferring the kitten back to Elly Campbell’s arms made her like her former nephew-in-law just a little bit more.
Apart from the directly involved, Adam and Elly Campbell, everyone in the living room wore smiles of varying degrees, even the Old Master, who had just been discharged from the hospital, was glowing with mirth.
It was at this moment that the butler led two people in from outside, "Second grandma, Uncle and Miss Lentz have arrived."
Elly, who had been laughing joyously just a moment before, instantly froze when she saw Sean Lentz and their only daughter, Ivy Lentz, following the butler inside.
Subsequently, her beautiful and delicate face quickly turned frosty.
Elly had not yet discussed her issues with the Old Master, and now with Sean’s arrival, she didn’t want the Old Master to be aware, so she walked over to Sean and said coolly,
"Let’s talk outside."
"Why go outside to talk? They are already here, come in and talk here,"
the Old Master’s voice rang out, carrying an authoritative tone.
