Chapter 237: Loosen Up Your Guard, My Dear
"What a beautiful child she is."
A soft sigh escaped Old Madam Xu’s mouth, looking fondly at Calliope smiling at the camera. She gently touched the screen as if wanting to caress the little one’s face, her countenance brightening more.
"Oh~ Hehe, she’s so adorable ah. Aiya! She takes after Leslie the most but, her eyes and nose look like yours, Calix."
Old Madam Xu’s old eyes began picking up Calliope’s physical similarities with Leslie and Calix. Immense joy chased away her lingering shock upon seeing the little girl’s photo.
Calliope’s bright smile reminded Old Madam Xu of Calix’s childhood self, specifically of the ones when he appeared so angelic on the outside yet actually thinking of wreaking havoc.
Sigh, hopefully, this little Calliope wouldn’t inherit her father’s mischievousness much.
"She looks so pure ah! Definitely takes after Leslie more!"
Amused by Old Madam Xu’s choice of words, Calix and Leslie briefly stared at one another. They exchanged another relieved smile upon seeing the old lady’s mellow countenance.
It seemed like Old Madam Xu’s initial shock had worn off. Instead of asking various questions about the event six years ago, she was more keen to know about her recently discovered great-granddaughter.
Telling Old Madam Xu about Calliope indeed was a good start. Calix and Leslie could plan out their next steps properly from here on.
"Grandma, don’t exaggerate ah," Calix heaved a sigh, sounding half helpless and half amused "Can you see her clearly? You’re not wearing your glasses now."
