Chapter 1993: 563: Regret_2

Olivia Armstrong slightly frowned, "So that’s how it is! But I wasn’t trying to become relatives with her! I only called her Mrs. Laker because everyone else did."

Olivia had never thought about it that way from the beginning to the end.

Isla Astir continued to explain, "Mom, Mrs. Riverside’s family are all civil servants, and they have local household registration in Capital City, perhaps they don’t want to be associated with us. So, it would be better if you could keep your distance from her."

Olivia nodded, "Got it, got it, I didn’t know what she was thinking. If I knew, I definitely wouldn’t have anything to do with her. It’s not like the old days when we struggled for food; who wants to take advantage from her family?"

She initially thought since everyone is neighbors, it was normal to call each other cordially as Mrs. Laker.

She didn’t expect Mrs. Laker would think that way.

It’s really speechless!

At this moment, William Astir came running from On the other side, anxiously asking, "Isla, have you and your mom seen Nino?"

Isla Astir shook her head, "No."

Olivia also shook her head and added, "Mr. Astir, don’t worry, Nino is so clever, he will be fine! Let’s keep looking."

Isla Astir continued, "I’ve already posted in the residents’ WhatsApp group, if they see Nino, they will inform us immediately."

Though she said that, William Astir was still very anxious. He took care of the two little puppies as if they were his children. Now with the weather being so cold, a moment of negligence might turn the puppies into ice sculptures.

After speaking, Isla Astir continued, "By the way, did you check near the entrance of the community? Maybe Nino has gone there." NovelFire

"Not yet! I’ll go look for him now!"

Isla Astir and her mother immediately followed William Astir’s steps.

The family of three just reached the main entrance when they saw Mandel Thompson coming over with a chubby puppy in his arms.

"Uncle, Auntie, are you looking for this?"

Mandel Thompson asked with a smile.

Seeing the puppy in Mandel Thompson’s arms, William Astir got overly excited, walked over to Thompson, and took Nino, "You little guy, where have you been! You scared Grandpa to death!"

Mandel Thompson said with a smile, "I saw it in the rear-view mirror. It was chasing my car. After I parked, I noticed this little guy looked a lot like Nino. I was about to take him over there and then message Isla, but then I ran into you, Uncle and Auntie."

Olivia looked at Mandel Thompson, liking him more and more as she looked; she really wished Thompson was her own son, "Thompson, I really thank you so much! If anything had happened to Nino today, your uncle could have sat there crying for three days and nights."

Mandel Thompson replied, "Auntie, you’re too kind, it was just a helping hand."

At this moment, as if Olivia Armstrong remembered something, she looked at Thompson and asked, "Thompson, how did you recognize Nino?"

Mandel Thompson had not visited their house since they got two dogs.

Mandel Thompson explained, "Isla often sends me videos of Nino and the other puppy." Besides, he picked Nino and the other puppy with Isla Astir at the kennel.

Hearing this, Olivia Armstrong subtly narrowed her eyes.

It seems that these two kids really have a good relationship.

Otherwise, Thompson wouldn’t have recognized Nino so easily.

Olivia Armstrong continued, "Thompson, I really thank you today, come on, let’s go home and have some tea."

Mandel Thompson also wanted to have tea, but since he had not brought anything with him, it felt somewhat inappropriate. He replied, "Auntie, it’s too late today. I’ll visit when you and Uncle are free."

"Okay!" Olivia nodded, then turned to Isla Astir, "Isla, see Thompson off."

Hearing this, William Astir immediately nodded in agreement, "Yes, yes, Isla, please see Thompson off."

Isla Astir caught up with Mandel Thompson’s steps, and the two quickly went outside of the community.

Mandel Thompson then dared to hold Isla Astir’s hand and asked with a smile, "Miss Astir, have you mentioned our matter to Uncle and Auntie?"

Isla Astir nodded slightly, "Yes. Dad said the day after tomorrow is a good day, if you are free, you could come over then."

Mandel Thompson said, "I’m free, I will come over first thing the day after tomorrow." NovelFire)

Isla Astir looked up at Mandel Thompson, "You don’t need to check your schedule?"
