Love Comes To Me -
Chapter 866: Daughters-in-law are meant to be spoiled
Originally being steadily pipped by a head, Master Khan just won the can.
Fontaine stared at him for a moment, then looked in amazement at Eloise, who was "making eyes" at Hector.
"I didn't know you knew how to play chess too, Eloise!"
Eloise rearranged the pieces and smiled slightly at his words, "I don't understand it, but I've seen it often enough to understand some of it." Master Khan laughed brightly before saying meaningfully, "I'm afraid that someone is deliberately letting you in."
Having lived to his age, like a human being, how could he not see some of the little tricks.
However, this also indirectly highlights how much Hector loves Eloise.
When Master Khan said that, he looked at Hector with a smile on his face.
The latter returned a smile as a tacit acknowledgement.
Eloise came to her senses, and a ring of red rose to her pale little face.
She gave Hector a stern look.
If Grandpa wants to play chess, then he should play with him properly.
Hector looked at her with doting eyes.
Daughters-in-law are meant to be pampered, aren't they?
Baggott also reacted and laughed along, and the family had a good time.
Master Khan and Hector played a few more games, while Baggott watched with an itch.
The three of them alternated down for almost a morning.
It was close to noon when Solomon returned after Edgar.
"Mummy!"
Solomon came up to her with his arms full of toys like a treasure, "My uncle gave me all these toys, look, aren't they cool!" Eloise fixed her eyes on it, and it was amazing.
The little one was smiling as if he had won a treasure with a pile of toys in his arms.
Those are all treasures from Edgar's collection.
The limited edition foreign robots, for example, are exquisitely crafted and are a boy's favourite at first glance.
Or maybe it's a variety of high-tech aircraft and tank models.
Most of the toys are enjoyed by boys as well as teenagers and are used in many collections.
Solomon was holding such a large pile in his arms that it was almost blocking his view.
"Solomon! How can you take so much of your uncle's stuff?"
Eloise recognised that many of these were limited edition collector toys from abroad and immediately asked about Solomon. She could see how precious those things were, even if she didn't understand them.
Solomon blinked with a look of reluctance.
It seemed to be thinking about whether to return this huge pile of stuff in his arms or not.
Yet, he loved it so much.
Edgar smiled and patted Solomon's head, "Solomon can give it away if he likes, even if he moves it all back."
After a moment's thought he added, "Eloise, don't be so serious, Solomon is at the right age to like toys."
Solomon instantly jumped up and down with excitement and said to Fabienne with a big smile, "Uncle is such a great guy!" Eloise frowned and looked at Solomon with mock seriousness.
Solomon understood the meaning of Eloise's eyes and hastily thanked Fabienne again, "Solomon thank you uncle!"
Eloise and those present couldn't help but lose a little laugh.
Mr. Fang also praised Solomon for being a good boy who knows what he is doing.
At this time, Sweety also came out of the kitchen with Shang Ying.
She carried a tray in her two chubby little hands and walked carefully into the hall with steady steps.
"Daddy, Mummy! You guys come and try Sweety's biscuits!"
Eloise was afraid Sweety would drop it and went up to help bring it to the coffee table.
Sweety lifted her little face with pride written all over it.
She picked up one of the pieces and brought it to Master Khan first, staring at him with big round eyes full of joy. "Great-grandfather! Try it, it's Sweety's!"
Sweety's gesture could not have made Master Khan happier.
Even if he doesn't usually like this kind of snack, he couldn't resist Sweety's enthusiasm and opened his mouth to eat a piece. Because Shang Ying was there to guide them, the little biscuits were not so sweet as to be cloying.
Master Khan nodded and gave Sweety a thumbs up, "Sweety makes great little biscuits!"
Sweety giggled, jumped off the sofa and gleefully handed out biscuits to all present.
In the end, most of these biscuits still ended up in the hands of Sweety and Solomon.
Eloise watched Sweety eat the little biscuits one after the other and finally stepped in to stop it.
"Sweety, you're not allowed to eat that many biscuits, it's time for lunch later."
"But it's Sweety's doing!"
"Eat on time to be a pretty little girl!"
When Sweety heard this, she immediately put down the biscuit in her hand in a good manner.
It got a good laugh from everyone.
Once lunch was ready, Great Uncle Farabee and Second Uncle Devona's family arrived uninvited. Upon entering, the first thing that came through the door was the loud voice of my great aunt Clemon. "Dad! We've come to see you and Eloise."
Hearing Clemon's voice, the smile on Master Khan's face faded in a flash, "Did I tell you to come?"
"What are you talking about, Dad? Eloise is back for a visit and it's only right that we have a family dinner together." Second aunt Silvia ignored the cold face of the other elder and came over with a smile to round things off.
Master Khan naturally knew what these two families had in mind.
But in the end, they are family, so naturally they did not refuse.
After ordering the housekeeper to add a few more sets of bowls and chopsticks, the whole family was served.
Once at the table, the purpose of both Farabee and Devona's families was revealed.
They all replace ways to strike up a conversation with Hector.
"That, Hector, ah, I'll just call you that, is that okay."
Farabee tries, in her capacity as an elder, to say.
Seeing Hector's indifferent look and not refusing took him to be acquiescent.
Farabee and Devona started with Hector's two children and eventually brought the conversation straight to the Rogers family company.
"Hector, I heard that Rogers Group is going to invest in that high-tech project of Lin's recently, I wonder if it's true?"
Devona asked tentatively.
Farabee's eyes rolled and she hurriedly interjected into the conversation, "I've heard that Lin's people can be proud of themselves and show off everywhere, this ... shouldn't run, right?" Hector was silent at first, offering Eloise a chunk of fish.
After picking out the fish spines slowly and patiently, he raised his head and said to the two men, "My brother is currently in charge of domestic affairs, so if you have any problems, you can go to my brother." This one sentence directly blocked back a load of words that both Farabee and Devona had prepared.
If only they had been able to contact Rupert for two days.
As for purposely coming to the Khan family residence for this meal?
Isn't that all about climbing the ladder with Hector?
Who can't afford a meal otherwise.
Eloise didn't know anything about the company either. She glanced up at her two uncles who were embarrassed, but she was speechless.
That's a bit too clear a purpose.
