“Who would be so daft?” Comelia muttered to herself, but obediently nodded anyway. “Thanks for the advice I’ll
remember”
Alexa said to Grandpa Duran, “Your granddaughter is quite sensible. I like her a lot
Grandpa Duran replied. “Nelly’s such a catch, of course everyone loves her”
Comelia blushed a bit “Grandpa Duran, not everyone likes me.”
The ignored little baby raised his little hand, “And me! You can call me Uncle, too.”

“Emily, how about I buy you some candy?”
The baby blinked his big eyes at Cornelia, as if looking at a clueless adult. Was he a kid who could be bribed with
candy? Did he need candy?
Comelia thought about how to coax the child, “Emily, I’ll not only buy you candy, but also lots of fun toys, and even
take you to the amusement park
Emily said, “Brian”
Brian pulled out another gift, the biggest one of the day, and handed it to the little baby.
Emily’s hands were tiny, the gift much bigger than his hands, so big he could barely hold it. “This gift is for you.”
Comelia laughed, “You’re too young to be giving me gifts.”
Emily said, “No matter how young, I’m still your uncle.”
Cornelia didn’t want to say it, but all eyes were on her. It felt like if she didn’t, they’d continue to stare Reluctantly,
she patted the baby’s head, “Hello, Uncle Ermily!”
Emily said, “You keep the gift. If you’re ever short on cash, let me know. I’ll give you money.”
Cornelia said, “Tll call you uncle, but I don’t need the gift.”
Hearing this, Emily forced out a few tears. “You accept their gifts but not mine. Do you look down on me because
I’m young?”
Comelia said, “Okay, okay, I’ll take it.”

handle. And the younger ones were so smart, she didn’t know how to deal with them.
Grandpa Duran loved Cornelia dearly, seeing everyone teasing her, he stood up to shoo them away, “Go busy
yourselves, let Nelly rest a bit.”
“You said she’d play with me” Emily slid down from Brian’s arms, walked over to Cornelia, and hugged her leg, “I
want a hug!”
Who could resist such a cute little baby? Cornelia didn’t know whether others could, but she couldn’t. She bent
down to pick up the baby, pinched his little face. “Does Uncle Emily still want a hug?”
The baby suddenly leaned into Cornelia and planted a kiss on her face.
