My Three Darlings

Chapter 68

A very old grandfather… Beau frowned and put down the newspaper. He pretended to be carefree and asked, “What Mr. Valentine?” “Roseane introduced him to me.” Eliza quickly put away the gift box. “It was all thanks to Mr. Valentine that I was able to participate in the audition so smoothly this time, and I also received a good result in the end.” After speaking, she looked at Beau and smiled, “Mr. Valentine is an interesting elder.” “At first, I thought that he was of the same generation as us, but later I found that he didn’t understand emoji.” “Every time I send him an emoji, he only responded after a long time.” Beau lightly frowned and picked up the newspaper to cover his face. He said in a low voice, “Does it mean that someone is old if they don’t understand emoji?” Eliza frowned. “What do you think then?” She sent an emoji that was easy for Mr. Valentine to understand but every time Mr. Valentine would take a long time to react. So, he must be an old man, right?” After that, she looked at Beau doubtfully. “Why are you talking about this suddenly?” An ominous premonition welled up in her heart… O The woman glanced at the inverted newspaper and said weakly, “Erm… Mr. Valentine.” “You… can’t understand emoji also?” “How is this possible?” The man’s voice was cold. “I don’t want to waste time on things without connotation.” After saying that, Beau realized that the newspaper in his hand was inverted. He frowned, stood up directly, and strode upstairs. 2 Eliza sat still as she stared blankly at the man’s back. She didn’t know why, but she felt like he was… angry? Braint and the Demarion, who were behind Eliza, looked at each other. It seemed that their daddy was knocked back!

So Demarion coughed slightly and said, “Mommy, I think that we can’t judge Mr. Valentine’s age by his understanding in emoji. “Maybe he is a handsome young man who doesn’t like online surfing!” Eliza pursed her lips and said, “But… Mr. Valentine’s job requires him to surf the Internet.” “Bang!” Just as Eliza finished speaking, the sound of the study door being closed came from upstairs. Braint shook his head helplessly, closed his laptop, and stood up. “I’m going upstairs.” Their daddy needed comfort now. Demarion gave Eliza a look and continued to speak righteously. “Mommy, do you want to meet this Mr. Valentine?” Eliza nodded, “Of course!” Mr. Valentine had helped her so much. How could she not thank

him personally? Demarion took a deep breath, as if he had thought of something. He started laughing suspiciously, “Then Mommy, when the time comes, I’ll help you choose your clothes when you meet with Mr. Valentine!” Eliza was stunned for a moment and asked, “You don’t have to, do you?” I’m just going to see an elder… “It’s necessary!” Demarion said with a serious face, “After all, Mr. Valentine is a very important person to you, mommy!” At this moment, in the study upstairs. Demarion climbed onto Beau’s desk, sat down and then turned on the laptop in his hand. D There were thousands of emoji in the laptop. “Daddy, you’re usually too serious.” “In order to avoid embarrassment next time.” The little fellow pointed the computer screen at Beau and said, “I suggest you learn what youngsters like to use these days.” Beau looked at him coldly and said, “I don’t want to learn.” He would not make things so difficult for himself just because of a woman. He admit that he was old and he wouldn’t waste time on such trivial things! Braint crossed his arms around his chest and looked at Beau with his bright black eyes. “Daddy, are you really not going to learn?” The man looked at him faintly, turned his head and switched on the computer. He

then opened the financial report in the email, and read it carefully. Braint was not in a hurry. The little boy poured himself a glass of water, sat on the desk, took out his cell phone and called Matthew. “Matthew.” “Braint!” At the other end of the phone, Matthew’s voice was filled with shock. “Why did you call me?” “I didn’t expect my arrogant and indifferent cousin will call me one day!” “It’s my honor…” “Matthew, you’re too noisy.” Matthew stopped talking the moment Braint finished speaking. “You’re not here to keep in touch with me, are you?” “If there’s anything you need help with, just tell Brother Matthew. I will do my best!” Matthew knew very well that this little boy Braint was actually a replica of Beau. He would have a bright future ahead of him! He wanted to cling on to this little fellow before he grew up. “I want to ask you a question.” Braint curled his lips slightly, his voice still faint, “Can a man who doesn’t understand emoji court a woman who likes to use emoji?”

There was a moment of silence on the other end of the phone. After a long while, Matthew smiled and said, “Only this?” “That’s right.” “Are you kidding? It’s impossible to court her!” On the other end of the line, Matthew’s voice was full of mockery. “Isn’t it too dumb if you don’t understand emoji?” Braint lightly

curled his lips and placed the phone beside Beau’s hand. “Please, a man who doesn’t understand emoji, wants to chase the woman who likes to use emoji. He’s dreaming, isn’t he?” “I’m sure the woman will think he’s boring. Don’t you think so?” The atmosphere in the study room began to grow cold. Matthew was still talking on the other end of the phone. He knew that Braint had asked him this question because he wanted him to give such an answer. Therefore, in order to please Briant, Matthew deliberately

exaggerated the matter. “Now even my grandfather knows how to use the emoji. If the man you said doesn’t understand emoji, then he’s worse than an old man!” “Why don’t you introduce that girl to me? I can understand emoji and use it to perfection as well. She will definitely fall in love with me!” “Is that so?” A suppressed cold voice sounded. “You’re dead.” Matthew’s voice stopped abruptly. “Uncle.. Uncle Beau?” “It’s me.” Beau coldly narrowed his eyes. “I heard that you want to seduce your aunt?”

Matthew: “!”

He was so scared that his mouth trembled. “Uncle, uncle, Uncle Beau!” “You listen to me! No, listen to my explanation!”

“I… ”

Beau frowned coldly and hung up the phone. Braint crossed his arms and looked up at him. “Daddy, do you still think it’s useless to learn these things?”

The man looked up at him and said nothing. The father and son looked at each other. Both of them refused to admit defeat as they were equally stubborn. “Ding—!” Suddenly, Beau’s cell phone, which was in the drawer, rang. It was the text message sent by Eliza to “Mr. Valentine”. It was an emoji of a cute rabbit. The man showed the phone to Braint with a cold face and asked, “How do I reply?”This material belongs to NôvelDrama.Org.
