"Vince, what are you daydreaming about?"
Vince snapped back to his senses. His peripheral vision had been following L the entire time.
He shook his head and said, "I brought you some clothes. I''ll have them delivered to the hotelter."
"Do you have something on your mind?"
Jamie nced at L, who was giving instructions to the actors, and her face grew pensive.
She paused, then said, "Actually, it''s not like you have no chance. L has always treated Mr. Morgan as an elder.
"I can tell this situation is troubling her. Maybe you should be more straightforward with her."
Before Vince could reply, they both noticed some movement by the entrance.
Looking up, they saw a man in a ck suit walking toward them. His tall, well-built figure exuded elegance, each step confident and measured.
His presence was somanding that it was impossible to look away. He stood tall like a pine tree, his demeanor as cold as snow.
Jamie was left speechless.
The man''s aura was so overpowering that it felt suffocating to be close. Even the assistant behind him, Cole, exuded more authority than the average assistant.
Seeing L being busy, the man found a seat to wait while his eyes fixed on her.
Half an hour passed, yet there was no sign of impatience from him.
Some people remarked, "Mr. Morgan really cares about L."
Vince pressed his lips together before standing up to greet him.
"Mr. Morgan, it''s been a while."
Kieran raised his eyes, his movements casual yet imbued with a noble elegance.
He had noticed Vince as soon as he walked in. He really was a great older brother. It would be perfect if he didn''t have feelings for L.
He stood up and gave a slight nod.
"Our family is holding a birthday party for L next Friday. Mr. Lane, would you be able to grace us with your presence?"
The words seemed casual yet carried an air of familiarity.
Vince paused briefly before smiling politely. "Of course. I''ll be there on time."
At that moment, L had just finished with her work and came over to the side.
"Uncle Kieran, what brings you here?"
Her voice was light and cheerful, like clear skies after a rainstorm.
Vince''s heart tightened. This was the side of L she hadn''t shown to others.
Despite her young age, she always portrayed an image of maturity andposure; which was why Jamie and Teddy relied on her, why Amelia liked her, and why Dorian was obsessed with her even aftertheir breakup.
Usually indifferent to others, Kieran looked at her with eyes as soft as the gentle spring stream.
It was a sight no one else had seen before.
Vince lowered his gaze. Between the two of them, it seemed like there was no room for a third person.
"You two continue. I''ll go deliver something to Jamie, then I''ll be heading back." He nodded and turned to leave.
Once Vince was far enough away, Kieran finally said, "When do you have some free time in the next couple of days?
"Grandma hasn''t been feeling well
hospital. She wants you to try to talk to her. Grandma has always?istened toyou."
"What''s wrong with Grandma? Is it serious?" L was startled. "I can go this afternoon..."
"L." Kieran''srge handnded gently on her shoulder,forting her. "It''s nothing serious. Just a bit of loss of appetite. It''s the usual issue with high blood pressure. We''ll just do a check-up."
L breathed a sigh of relief. "If it''s not urgent, I''ll finish here and return with you in the afternoon."
Seeing him nod, L rearranged her schedule for the day, managing to finish early so she could return with Kieran.
That evening, L stayed at the Morgan residence.
Amelie only allowed L to take her to the hospital because she was personally hosting the uing birthday banquet on Friday.
The next morning, they went to the hospital.
After the check-up, L stayed with Amelie in the shade while waiting for the results.
Suddenly, Amelie tapped her gently. "Look at that person over there. Doesn''t he look like Dorian?"
