Felix sounded like he had also struggled in figure out Zoe’s smartwatch.
Before 1 could say anything, Jate took charge, putting on her best authoritative voice,
“Why are you answering Zor’s phone?”
Tcouldn’t help but laugh at her serious tome. She looked so cute while being stern, Hearing Jane’s Voder, Tells pused for a moment, then he explained pertly.
“Zoe is busy with his robotics project. He will be free in ten minutes. You can..“
Jane didn’t let him finish, cutting him off mid sentence.
“We will call after ten minutes.”
She immediately hang up and then high–fived me.
“Am I a smart girl, mommy?”
The thought of Felix getting dismissed by a four–year–old was so amusing that I broke into a fit of laughter
“Yes, you are brilliant, my daughter!”
Jane looked at me for a moment and then raised her small hands, cradling my face. Her innocent tone was filled with concern as she spoke.

Tapping his foot on the floor restlessly. Henry exuded a dominant aura which commanded respect without fury. I had expected him to scold me because of my carelessness, but instead, he said,
