Chapter 253 The Five Treasures
At the Old Manor.
Darius brought his five grandchildren and Kingsley as well as Shaun to eat but was interrupted by an unexpected visit.
“Mr. Graham, Zayden is here again,” Edwin informed Darius.
In an instant, all five of the little kids frowned and looked at Darius.
“Ask him to leave!” Darius scoffed.
What a killjoy.
Edwin noted Darius’ order and backed away to send Zayden off.
“I kindly ask that you leave, Mr. Adams. Mr. Graham is not accepting any visitors today.”
“Edwin, this is a gift for Mr. Graham. Can you please help me hand it to him?”
Zayden proceeded to raise the gift he had in his hand.
However, Edwin took a look and said, “Mr. Adams, you should bring it back as well. Mr. Graham is not going to accept this.”
As soon as Edwin finished, he turned and went inside, completely ignoring Zayden in the process.
Zayden took a peek inside the manor and saw that it was brightly lit. Nevertheless, he could not see Darius, which gave him quite the headache.
Be it, Benjamin Graham or Darius Graham, Zayden did not get to meet either of them, not even Gavin Graham.
When he got news about the kids, Zayden rushed to the school, but they had already been taken away and were not at the school anymore.
Since both Benjamin and Darius were very adamant, there was no way for Zayden to plea for Danna. The only option left was through Gavin.
So, Zayden hovered at the door for a little longer before he eventually left.
Meanwhile, Darius was unaffected by the visit, as he invited the kids and two adults to eat with him.
“Come, everyone. Eat up!”
Darius delightfully started placing food on the children’s plate.
“Eat whatever you want, and tell me if you can’t reach it, okay?”
“Thank you, Grandpa!”
The five said simultaneously.
Their sweet and adorable voice was loved by all.
Darius was looking at them with a bright smile on his face. I can never get enough of this!
“Oh, are you having problems with the drumstick, Jesse? Let me tear it up for you, okay?” Darius asked, seeing that Jesse did not have any front teeth.
“Thank you, Grandpa, but I can eat it on my own!” the little girl said and bit down once again and slowly munched away at the drumstick.
Meanwhile, Gavin cut some meat up and placed it on Jesse’s plate.
“Thanks, Gavin!”
When Jesse smiled, her eyebrows formed a perfect crescent, and dimples would appear on both sides of her cheeks, not to mention the gap between her teeth.
She looked adorable, and everyone watched in amusement.
At the same time, Shaun and Kingsley also had their eyes glued to the five siblings, relentlessly filling up their plates with food and completely forgetting about themselves.
“Grandpa, Uncle, you guys need to eat too!” Jesse reminded as she looked at them.
“Oh! Right!”
Darius laughed and picked up his utensils after seeing the kids enjoying themselves.
“Grandpa, the Chanaen food here tastes so good!”
Oliver narrowed his eyes as the heat from the food fogged his glasses.
Kingsley was amused and said, “Oliver, take off your glasses when you eat.”
“But I won’t be able to see if I take them off!” Oliver replied.
Then, he took his glasses off, wiped them clean, and put them back on again.
Darius’ heart ached to see Oliver that way, so he asked, “How bad is your eyesight, Oliver? Maybe let Shaun have a look and see if he could fix it for you with surgery.”
What he said sounded silly to Shaun since Shaun was not an ophthalmologist, but he answered, “Okay!”
So, Oliver told Darius about his eyesight. “It’s around 300 degrees, Grandpa. Mommy told me that my glasses could help adjust my eyesight, so my eyes will be fixed after wearing them for a year. I don’t need to go through surgery.”
Darius was astonished. “Does technology like that actually exist?”
“Sure does!” The little fellow nodded.
“Grandpa, the doctor said that Oliver won’t need to wear glasses anymore if he wore that for a few years.”
Jasper looked at Darius with a smile.
“That’s good then. It’s much safer than going through eye surgery.” Darius nodded.
Shaun smiled and said, “Don’t worry, Mr. Graham. It’s common for people to have eyesight problems these days. Wearing glasses isn’t that much of a big deal.”
Darius was a little annoyed when he heard that. “How is it not a big deal? It’s inconvenient to do anything while wearing glasses.”
Shaun smiled in response.
“Grandpa, I’ve already gotten used to it. There’s no such problem,” Oliver said while his eyes narrowed as he smiled.
