Aidan Lucas put Lulu down and let her sit next to Abbie.
He glanced sideways and said to Ben.
"We adults are going to talk now, take your brother and sister downstairs."
No matter if Lulu and Abbie were Richard Coldwell's children or not, as long as they were Lily's, even if Abbie spoke in an unpleasant way, Ethan still took them under his wing.
Without having won Lily's approval yet, he already treated these two dumplings as siblings to Ben.
Ben would normally never easily obey the old man's orders.
But clearly, he was pleased by the words 'brother and sister'.
Ben stood up noncommittally, walked over to Lulu and Abbie, and took one by the hand.
"Let's go, I'll take you somewhere else to play."
Little Lulu liked her big brother and was happy to have him hold her hand.
Abbie, however, seemed a bit awkward and tried to shake him off.
But Ben just gripped his hand tighter.
He narrowed his eyes slightly, adopting the authority of a big brother, "Behave."
