Chapter 0026 I was surprised by the dinner request and my brows shot upward to my hairline .<\/p>\n
You want to have dinner with me ? I asked .<\/p>\n
Theres plenty of food for you as well , Madam , the maid added , a wide grin on her face , I looked back at Matt for confirmation , and he looked so small and almost nervous at that moment .<\/p>\n
I wondered what it was about .<\/p>\n
My dad is never home for dinner and my sister hasnt bee home since she started dating that Ethan guy , Matt confessed .<\/p>\n
Sometimes Butler Adam will eat with me , but not always .<\/p>\n
I get lonely \u2026 My heart tugged for the child , and I put my hand on his shoulder , reassuringly .<\/p>\n
I would love to have dinner with you , Matt , I told him .<\/p>\n
Then afterward , we can play that game , and Ill show you how to beat that level .<\/p>\n
He beamed at my promise and jumped to his feet .<\/p>\n
Come on ! He said , grabbing my arm and pulling me towards the kitchen .<\/p>\n
The dining table was set up for only Matt and it made me sad to see the lonely sight .<\/p>\n
The maid quickly walked in behind us and set another place for me , giving me a sheepish smile .<\/p>\n
I sat at the table beside Matt as the maid poured us some juice before serving the meal .<\/p>\n
It w t was a delicious stew ; I hadnt realized how hungry I was until it was right in front of me .<\/p>\n
My stomach was growling by the time I had my first bite of the food .<\/p>\n
While we ate , I listened to Matt talk about school , his interests , and about some of the friends he has .<\/p>\n
I had to admit that I enjoyed spending time with the little gay .<\/p>\n
He seemed pleased to have me there keeping him company and I enjoyed that I could do that for him .<\/p>\n
After our meal , I offered to clean the table and dishes , but the maids insisted on doing it for us .<\/p>\n
Its their job , Matt explained .noveldrama<\/p>\n
That doesnt mean we cant be helpful , I told him .<\/p>\n
He shrugged .<\/p>\n
Can we play the game now ? He asked , bouncing in his seat .<\/p>\n
I smiled at him .<\/p>\n
Yes , I did promise you that we would , I told him .<\/p>\n
He eagerly jumped out of his seat and ran into the parlor where I left his tablet on the coffee table .<\/p>\n
I followed after him .<\/p>\n
I sat on the couch with him and taught him everything I knew about the game .<\/p>\n
I showed him exactly what I did to beat the level , and he followed my instructions perfectly .<\/p>\n
After he successfully beat the level , he jumped up and clapped , I laughed and then I gasped in surprise when he wrapped his arms around me to hug me .<\/p>\n
Can we keep playing ? He asked .<\/p>\n
I thought about it for a moment .<\/p>\n
Well , you did finish your homework .<\/p>\n
I suppose you earned a bit more gameplay .<\/p>\n
But tomorrow we are going to 1\/2 Chapter 0026 work extra hard on studying your letters and math before we do some defense training .<\/p>\n
Understood ? He beamed as he nodded .<\/p>\n
Can you teach me how to shoot the bow and arrow too ? He asked .<\/p>\n
I have trouble with my aiming .<\/p>\n
Can yo I would be happy to teach you everything I know , I assured him .<\/p>\n
He t back down and handed me the tablet , wanting me to continue with the next level .<\/p>\n
For the next 30 minutes , we continued passing the tablet back and forth , sharing the gameplay and chuckling periodically at all the mishaps that happened during the gaming process .<\/p>\n
The entire time , Adam hadnt made a single appearance to check on us .<\/p>\n
I almost completely forgot about him until I heard his voice outside of the parlor .<\/p>\n
She let him play on his tablet and theyve been doing nothing but goofing off the entire time , I heard Adam saying I made a mistake by allowing her here in the first place .<\/p>\n
Shes not fit to be his tutor .<\/p>\n
They have done nothing productive , Alpha ! 1 I looked up at the closed doorway with a frown and before I knew what was happening , the door flew open and Gavin walked into the parlor , startling us both .<\/p>\n
Matt nearly dropped the tablet but thankfully I caught it before it hit the ground .<\/p>\n
Dad , youre home , Matt said with an awkward smile on his lips as if he knew he was caught doing something he shouldnt be doing , Gavin glared at me with his arms folded across his chest .<\/p>\n
