Chapter 523 Two More Adorable Kids
In the meantime, Malcolm could finally allocate time to visit Natalie in Dellmoor. At the same time, he could barely wait to meet Xavian and Clayton.
After finalizing the time to meet both the kids, he headed toward the fast-food restaurant, their meeting point, with a big bag of local food products from the highland.
Surprisingly, Malcolm was the one setting the venue.
He had been having a simple healthy diet with Donna on the highland. Somehow, he craved some other types of food after having non-greasy dishes with a bland taste every day. Thus, he planned to grab the opportunity to savor French fries and soft drinks that he had not eaten for ages.
When he stepped into the fast-food restaurant, Xavian and Clayton were already there. Apart from that, there were two other adorable kids alongside them. They turned out to be Franklin and Sophia.
Malcolm could not resist blinking his eyes in disbelief as he moved toward them in a slow motion.
At the sight of Malcolm moving at a snail’s pace, Xavian waved at him eagerly and urged, “Mr. Trevor, we are here!”
Moments later, Malcolm stopped next to the kids and put down the heavy bag of local food products from the highland. He threw Franklin a glance, then switched to cast a look at Sophia before asking curiously, “They are…”
“Mr. Trevor, they’re my stepfather’s son and daughter. Ah! You haven’t met my stepfather, have you? He’s an outstanding man and has been taking good care of Mommy. Both Xavian and I are very happy with him!” Clayton introduced proudly, puffing out his chest.
Xavian nodded and echoed, “Clayton is right! He’s indeed a lot better than our worthless father!”
After squinting his eyes and pondering for quite a while, something finally struck Malcolm.
He asked warily, “The stepfather whom you mention… Could it be Samuel Bowers?”
“Yeah!” the two boys replied simultaneously.
It had been a while since Malcolm heard that Samuel had fraternal twins five years ago. Nevertheless, he never had the chance to meet them as he had been leading a secluded life in the highland. Now that he not only could meet Clayton and Xavian but also the fraternal twins, he was as happy as a clam!
Malcolm had been having a soft spot for kids. However, he did not even have a granddaughter-in-law as his grandson had been burying himself in his work.
When Xavian and Clayton used to stay temporarily with them on the highland previously, he and Donna had treated both of them as though they were their great-grandsons.
Now that there were two other adorable kids, no words could describe the jubilation surging within him. He stretched out his arms excitedly, beckoning Franklin and Sophia, “Come to me! Let me give you a hug!”
Franklin and Sophia exchanged glances without stretching out their hands. They scrutinized the white-haired elderly with a hint of vigilance.
Malcolm could only touch his nose feeling rather embarrassed and asked, “So both of you are Samuel’s children! Your names are Franklin and Sophia, right?”
Astounded, Franklin arched his brows. “How do you know about that?”
“Yeah! Mr. Trevor, how do you know about it?” Both Xavian and Clayton were stupefied too.
Malcolm explained triumphantly, “It’s because I’m not only your mommy’s master. At the same time, I’m your daddy’s master too! Didn’t he ever mention that he has a master leading a secluded life on the highland?”
Right that instant, something came into Franklin and Sophia’s minds.
Sophia pulled the hem of Malcolm’s shirt lightly and asked hesitantly, “So you’re really our daddy’s master?”
“Of course. What’s the point for me to bluff you? After all, I’m the master of Xavian and Clayton’s mom. Xavian and Clayton can prove that I’m not lying.” Malcolm tried to convince the twins.
Xavian nodded and spoke up for him. “It’s true! Mr. Trevor is Mommy’s master!”
Meanwhile, Clayton added solemnly, “Mommy used to bring us to stay with Mr. Trevor and Mrs. Trevor for a while when we were young. In fact, she ever mentioned to us that even though Mr. Trevor seems to sound a bit playful, he is an expert in the medical field and the corporate world. On top of that, he’s undoubtedly a man of his words and an excellent master!”
