" Delilah is a child, mother..." Chen Xiao said. Unfortunately, it worsens the situation.
" A child? A child? If she were a child, she wouldn't be in high school, isn't that right? I'm giving you my warning Xiao, do not spoil this child. If you keep this up, how will she take over the company when it is her time?",
" Don't you know how much your uncle wants his son to take over the position of the family's patriarch? Don't you dare stand up for her, or I'm going to hit my stick on her head..." Old madam Chen continued to nag both father and daughter non-stop.
A while later, Old madam Chen stopped nagging as she had run winded, but she still glared at the duo.
" But mother she..." before Chen Xiao could complete his statement, Old madam Chen exploded again.
" But what? Is it until she becomes rotten...", she yelled, she now had her attention on Delilah who was eating quietly,
"... And you spoiled brat, why are you not in school, huh? Do you need me to beat your senses back into your head before you get going to school?!" Old madam Chen said menacingly as she raised her walking stick.
" Grandma..." Delilah eyes teared up and she pouted. She decided to use the honey trap on the Old madam since there were a few instances that actually worked.
" I am sorry, I promise not to do it again", her voice was so soft, it sounded inaudible, but it still could be heard. She was currently bowing three sixty-five degrees as she apologized.
Luckily, this time, the honey trap worked. Old madam Chen sighed as she pinched her temples, she returned the phone to its owner.
" Eat up and get ready for school", Old madam Chen ordered as she ate expressionlessly.
Delilah's eyes lit up," Thank you grandma, Delilah loves you the most", she brown nosed the elderly woman.
" Mm!", Old madam Chen grunted in response.
" * cough·cough·cough*...", Chen Xiao coughed slightly.
" Delilah loves daddy too...", she giggled.
At that moment, Delilah quickly stood up from her seat, she was running late.
" Dad, grandma, I'll be leaving now" she said as she carried her backpack preparing to leave.
" Wait!" Old madam Chen's authoritative voice rang out in the silent room, Delilah froze and slowly turned around, questions flashing in her eyes. " Finish your milk!", Old madam Chen added and didn't say more.
*GU·GU·GU·*, Delilah hurriedly emptied the milk and placed the empty glass on the table.
She kissed Old madam Chen and Chen Xiao on the cheek before she sprinted out of the house.
