Chapter 666: Unspoken Emotions
The man’s handsome face darkened a bit, and he suddenly recalled memories from a long time ago, those belonging to Magnus Leclair. At that time, Bessie Leclair, Delphine, and Nathan Leclair were all attending the same high school.
Every morning, Delphine would ride her bicycle to school, leaving very early. Normally, Nathan, who disregarded school rules, suddenly became an exemplary student for a period, riding his Harley motorcycle early to school every day.
Being as perceptive as Magnus Leclair, he quickly noticed the issue and quietly started driving Delphine to school to assert his authority. Only then did Nathan revert to his former rebellious and carefree self, the second young master of the Leclair Family.
Such unspoken emotions and thoughts were understood by the two of them alone.
As Ignatius Leclair’s expression turned melancholy, the old master of the Leclair Family had already entered the side hall, leaning on his rosewood cane, angrily saying, "That little brat from the Yeager Family, barely in power for a few years, already doesn’t know his place?"
Benjamin Leclair heard his stern grandfather’s voice, slipped off the sofa, and toddled over to wrap his little arms around Ignatius Leclair’s leg, sweetly and tenderly saying, "Daddy, great-grandpa is grumpy."
The old master of the Leclair Family, being disliked by his great-granddaughter, restrained his anger a bit, looked at Benjamin kindly, and with a smile said, "Nonsense, grandpa has a good temper."
The handsome man bent down to pick up his little daughter, solemnly asking, "Did you listen to mommy today?"
Benjamin Leclair nodded like a little chick pecking at rice.
"I’ll take care of these things, you don’t need to worry." Ignatius Leclair turned to the old master, then handed Benjamin over to Delphine, touched her forehead and hands, and seeing that her little hands were warm, finally smiled gently and said in a low voice, "Still obedient, not cold."
She had a cold constitution, often having cold hands and feet, and during her menstrual periods, she would be in such pain that her face turned pale. Ignatius Leclair spoke to his wife in the tone he used with his daughter, showing affection in a subtle way.
Delphine instinctively lowered her eyes, while Nathan, from the sofa, suddenly leaped up, lazily walking out with folded arms, jesting with a half-smile, "Single people now really have no place to live, getting fed dog food everywhere."
"You brat, about to eat and you’re heading out?" the old master of the Leclair Family called, leaning on his cane.
The man waved offhandedly, laughing, "Not eating, going to meet some friends."
Seeing that Ignatius Leclair had finally returned, Delphine stood up, placed Benjamin next to Nicholas, and quietly said, "I have something to tell you."
Ignatius Leclair’s phoenix eyes were deep, and he calmly replied, "Let’s talk in the tea room."
"Isaac has changed significantly since he got back. I think he shouldn’t go to Xiang City to study with your father," Delphine said softly, sitting in the tea room.
Ignatius Leclair frowned. The estrangement between him and Stone Leclair was already settled. Now Stone regarded Isaac as his only son, taking him to Xiang City. Delphine feared that the truth behind Beatrice Carter’s death was unknown, and under Stone’s influence, Isaac’s coldness towards him and Delphine was understandable.
"What do you want to do?" the man asked in a low voice, inquiring about her thoughts.
Delphine felt a bit troubled; she wanted to care for Isaac but lacked the standing, and this matter would directly confront Stone Leclair.
"The matter is simple. The old master is very fond of the two kids and could choose not to go to Switzerland for rest. I can fetch Isaac to Nanyang later. However, Delphine, you would have to stay in Nanyang long-term," Ignatius Leclair said, his phoenix eyes deeply looking at her.
