Having walked a short distance, Amelia turned to look back and saw that Alder Locke was not following her. She then triumphantly said to Titus Zane, "Pretty sister, isn't Amelia smart?"
Titus Zane blinked, not understanding Amelia's meaning at first, then saw the little girl proudly lift her chin, saying, "Amelia could tell that sister dislikes that man, so Amelia asked sister to accompany her to the restroom!"
Titus Zane...
Looking at the little girl beside her, she felt a mix of amusement and helplessness, wondering if her feelings were so obvious that even a child could perceive them.
Smiling, Titus Zane praised her, "Yes, Amelia is very smart, and very cute too."
"The aunties in kindergarten say the same thing too," Amelia said with a proud tilt of her chin.
