Chapter 901

As it turned out, “mothers know best” was a truth that would never change.

Larissa stared at all the scribbles that were drawn as she asked Gary. “This is what you call very talented“?”

Gary was shockingly still able to praise every little part of Aster’s drawing. “Look at this curve here, how perfect!

And this little thin line

here, and this one”

“Sure, then.” Larissa crossed her arms as she asked Gary. “Then can you tell me what the hell he just drew?”

This definitely made Gary feel lost. He tipped his head to the side as he brought the papers closer and further away

from him. He was staring holes into the papers, and yet he still could not tell what was drawn on them.

Finally, he tried to guess. “Is that a very tall chicken?”

“Noooo! That’s not it” Aster snatched away his “masterpiece” from Gary with annoyance. “This is Ke–van–Ro–gers!

It’s my daddy!”

Gary’s expression changed at once, and he did not speak for a long while.

Larissa watched her father’s speechless face with amusement, and she added salt to his wounds. “So? Is your

grandson still talented

now? Is he still a master artist?”

Gary tumed to glare at Larissa.

Aster carefully folded the two papers with the drawing of Kevan on it like he was holding some precious treasure. “I

want to bring this back. “He proudly lifted his chin and announced loudly, “I will give it to Daddy as his present!”

Gary’s lace was darker than ever. Although he did not like Kevan, he never dared to say anything bad about Kevan

in front of Aster. He was scared that Aster would be unhappy and hate him.

Feeling bad for her lather, Larissa quickly pulled Aster and asked him, “What about Grandpa’s present? Grandpa is

so good to you. He bought you so much good lood and taught you how to draw, shouldn’t you thank Grandpa?

“Grandpa’s present is right here!” Aster took out a paper from the remaining stack. “Here. A drawing of Grandpa

with his name, Ga–ry–Lo-

gan.”

Larissa covered her face. If Aster had not said it, no one would have guessed those words were Gary’s name.

But Gary was suddenly happier than before and all the darkness on his face was gone. He kept holding that paper

and looked at it like he was totally happy with this gift.

“I’m going to frame this and hang it up in the living room! I will make sure that all guests who come to our house

will see it!”

Larissa advised him. “That won’t be necessary-

It would only errbarrass Gary.

“Grandpa, Grandpa Aster immediately tugged on Gary’s sleeve and gave him the folded papers with the drawing of

Kevan. “Can you frame

this too?”

His big eyes sparkled.

Gary gritted his teeth as he said kindly, “Of course! When I’ve framed it, I’ll bring it over to your mommy.”

“Yay!” Aster happily hugged Gary’s neck and kissed hirm on the cheek. “Grandpa’s the best! I love Grandpa the

most!”

Gary asked him quickly, “Do you love Grandpa or do you love Daddy?”

Aster did not hesitate. “Of course, I love Grandpa!”

This made Gary smile happily. “Good! Good!” He rubbed Aster’s head. “I will give you whatever you want next

time!”
