Exception works wonders.
Upon hearing him ask about Emily Goldsmith, he immediately crouched down and gently introduced her, "This is Lord's friend, Miss Emily Goldsmith."
"Oh, she's Dad's friend." Bobby looked enlightened and then glanced at Emily. His big eyes squinted as if it was very strange, sizing her up from head to toe. He said in a childish voice, "But doesn't Dad dislike girls who dye their hair gaudily? He also said that girls who dye their hair like that are... what was it... non-mainstream! And Dad doesn't like girls who wear blue clothes either. Dad said my mom looks the best in blue, and other girls wearing blue are just... winter melons!"
He can't remember ever saying those words. Nevertheless, being talked nonsense by Bobby in front of everyone, he was surprisingly not angry, and there was even a rare hint of amusement in his eyes.
Was this little guy trying to help Enna Clark save face?
No wonder Enna pampered him so much.
