When she saw Dax and her Grandpa starting to chat again, Bella asked Noora to sit next to her.
"Aunty, can you take Dax on a house tour? I need to talk to Grandpa alone," Bella whispers to her.
Bella needed time with her grandfather to discuss his plans to move in with them. If he is serious, then she couldn’t let him do that. Well, not this time.
"He seems to enjoy hanging out with Old Master, Young Miss. But I will try. Don’t worry, Young Miss," Noora said.
"Thank you."
"Ah, I forget to ask. By the way, is Old Master serious about moving to the capital with us?" Noora expresses her doubts about the Old Master’s seriousness about his plan.
"I am not sure either. That’s why I need you to take Dax with you."
Bella turned her gaze towards Dax. She couldn’t believe her son had gotten so close to her grandfather in such a short time. Even with Jack, when he visited them in their cabin in Sweden, it took Dax a few days to talk to Jack. And to this day, Dax never wanted Jack to carry him.
Sean was the only person who could match how quickly Dax got close to his grandfather. But it also took Sean several hours to get Dax to talk to him casually.
Bella silently sighed deeply before looking at Noora again. "You can start now, Aunty. They will not stop talking until noon if we let them..."
Noora nodded. She stood up from her seat and walked over to Old Donovan.
"Excuse me, Old Master…" When Old Donovan looked at her, Noora smiled before continuing her words. "I need young master Dax to follow me. There is something important we need to do—"
Old Donovan was surprised to hear another woman’s voice. He had heard that voice before, well, a long time ago. He turned to look and was shocked to see Noora, his wife’s maid, standing there.
"Oh my God! Is that you, Noora?" he said in surprise. "Why didn’t I see you earlier? You just arrived, or are you coming with them?"
Noora didn’t expect Old Donovan to say that. She had entered the room a few minutes ago, but he was unaware of her.
’Is my big body not large enough to be seen, causing him not to see me?’ Noora wondered, glancing briefly at Bella.
Bella almost spat out her tea, hearing her grandpa’s words.
Dax smiles, looking at Noora, who now feels awkward. He gets off his Great-Grandfather’s lap.
"Gramps, she is my nanny. She comes with us." Dax explained.
Bella frowned, hearing Dax call her grandfather ’Gramps.’ She remembered earlier that she still heard Dax calling him Great-Grandfather. ’Did they make another new deal?’ Bella wondered.
"Forgive this old man, Noora. I might’ve missed you when you came into the house..." Old Donovan smiled, sincerely apologizing to Noora. "Well, I was too excited to meet Dax, and I guess I immersed myself in talking to him."
"It’s okay, old master. I’m grateful you’re still as healthy as I saw you the last time, and I’m happy enough that you remember me, too." Noora said while lowering her head to hide her chuckle.
