Before Ava could stand up, Draven squatted down in front of her.
"What are you reading?" he queried.
Ava blinked her eyes. "Ah…I am reading…" She was not able to complete her words for reasons unknown. Her soft gray eyes stared at Draven as he took the book from her to glimpse the back.
If he recalls correctly, he bought this exact book for Avelina. It was her current read.
He smiled in a barely perceptible way, but of course, Ava did not fail to notice. Draven gave the book back to her and straightened up. He glanced at Pierre.
"Where are Olive and Loui?" he questioned.
Pierre replied, pointing upward, "They are upstairs in their rooms."
"Call them." Draven walked over to sit down on the sofa. He crossed his legs and folded his arms.
A minute later, Olive and Loui arrived downstairs with Lucien. They slightly bowed to him before straightening up.
