Chapter 547: Defy the Battle (1)
At 5:30 in the morning, before the 5:40 alarm even went off, Elena was already awake.
As soon as she woke up, she turned to her mom lying next to her, "Mom, wake up. Or we’ll be late to see Uncle Simon off."
"..." Daisy was still groggy, as she rarely woke up so early, even during those two years at the Duncan family. She usually slept until 6:30. But since her daughter was already awake, she had no choice but to open her eyes and reply, "Okay."
They quickly got ready, grabbed some fresh milk and bread from the refrigerator to eat on the road, and the mother-daughter duo headed out.
They took a cab directly to the airport.
When they arrived at the airport, it was not even 6:20. Elena had arranged to meet Simon at 7:00 the night before, so she was confident that they wouldn’t miss him.
She held her painting in both hands. Simon had given her a Barbie doll, so she painted a picture for him, depicting the scene of him giving her the doll. Elena had a natural talent for drawing, and her lifelike painting made her quite satisfied with her work.
Of course, she had painted several versions before she finally found the perfect one to give to Simon. Elena was overjoyed.
At 6:40, Simon and Irene arrived. Daisy ushered Elena forward to greet them. Elena sweetly called out, "Uncle Simon, Auntie Irene, hi."
"Hi, Elena." Irene smiled and greeted Elena, then nodded to Daisy, and said to Simon, "I’ll go exchange the tickets, you guys chat."
