NovelEnglishSkylar was acting like a complete scoundrel. It angered her so much her scalp tingled.
She, however, could only blush and stand on her tip-toes to give her husband a peck on the cheek in
front of Lola.
“That should be more than enough.”
Yulia spoke, embarrassed.
“No way! One more! Mommy should also make it as loud as my kiss!”
The little girl exclaimed as she took a stance to oversee it.
Skylar was now wearing a Cheshire grin.
There was no doubt they were fated to be together.
Yulia, meanwhile, wanted nothing more than to spank her daughter at that moment.
The girl’s expression, so ignorant of the ways of the world, made her think twice. She instead got on
her tip-toes once more and kissed his other cheek.
There was a loud smack this time.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtShe had no choice. Skylar would definitely ridicule her even further if the child insisted on starting over
again.
For Skylar, however, this was already a blessing.
“This should be enough, right?”
Yulia pouted.
Lola nodded vigorously. “Yup!”
Skylar and Yulia couldn’t help laughing when they finally completed the important task.
The family of three joked around for a while longer before they continued on their way.
Yulia suddenly froze in place just as they were about to reach the familiar tombstone.
Skylar instantly followed her gaze.
There stood a man in a black tunic suit before Yulia’s mother’s grave.
He looked to be a man in his fifties and seemed to be muttering words to the gravestone.
When he heard movement behind him, he turned and swept the family a glance. His brows furrowed.
He had clearly instructed those bodyguards not to let anyone in.
What happened to them?
Did they think they would get paid after slacking on the job?
A dozen of them couldn’t hold off a man with his family?
“This is my mother’s grave. Who might you be?”
Yulia stepped forward and asked.
“Your mother?”
The man trembled. “You’re Phaedra’s daughter?”
“Yes, I am!”
Yulia nodded.
The man took a glance at Yulia and couldn’t help but sigh. “You indeed have her eyes.”
“You knew my mother? Were you friends or family?”
Yulia questioned further.
Her mother, Phaedra Lucas, had passed a little after she was born.
Her only memory of her mother was of a few photos.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmShe knew nothing about where she was supposedly born or who her family and friends were.
Her desire to find out was roused at the sight of him visiting her grave.
She wanted to know everything about her mother.
“I’m Geoffrey Lucas. You can refer to me as your uncle if you’d like.”
The man spoke kindly.
Uncle?
Yulia was taken aback for a split second.
Mother was a Lucas. This man is also a Lucas. He’s saying I can call him Uncle.
He’s my mother’s brother!
He did indeed share a resemblance to her mother in photos when she took a second look at him.
It seemed the man was indeed related to her mother.
She just hadn’t expected to meet her uncle here of all places.
Before she could get another word in, Geoffrey spoke, “I came to Cloudtopia on business and decided
to stop by when I happened to be in the area.”
“I’ll be taking my leave since you’re here.”
With that, Geoffrey put his hands behind his back, passed Skylar and Yulia, and headed for the gates.
