Mme Adele answered.
Before Grandma could say anything more, she saw that Franklin was also getting ready to go upstairs to change
Grandma had hoped that something would happen between them, but seeing the distance between them, it was clear that nothing har.
She sighed, disappointed.
“I just got a call from a friend who’s here for treatment. I need to go back for a hit. You two stay and enjoy yourselves,” Grandma said, patting Adele’s hand and turning to Franklin. “No bullying Mag. got it?”
Franklin simply nodded, “Got it.”
At that moment, another elevator door opened, and Levi stepped out.
Seeing him, Adele was a little surprised. She hadn’t expected him to be at the hot spring resort.
However, neither Grandma nor Franklin seemed surprised. It was clear they were already aware that Levi had come to the resort.
When Levi saw Adele, he raised an eyebrow, then turned to Grandma and greeted her affectionately, “Grandma, you’re leaving already? Don’t you want to stay for lunch before going?”
The Davis and Collins families had a good relationship. Grandma Collins had watched Levis grow up, so she responded with a kind smile. “No need, no need. You all have fun.”
The group of them saw Grandma off. After the car drove off, Isabella immediately cheerfully asked, “Uncle Levi, what brings you here?”
Levi bent down and lightly pinched Isabella’s soft, fair cheek, “Your father asked me to come. I greeted Grandma Collins, then came straight over. How’s that? Uncle Levi is loyal, right?”
“Oh, so Dad sent you here?” she asked, understanding.
“Yeah,” Levi smiled and continued,
“I heard your great–grandmother is leaving, so I notified Uncle Harry and Aunt Julia. They’re on their way here and will be arriving shortly. Are you happy about that?”
When he said this, Levi deliberately glanced at Adele.
Adele noticed and realized that his words were meant specifically for her.
Isabella, of course, was happy to hear that. She was about to nod when she hesitated, suddenly aware that Adele was there. She looked up at her.
Adele pretended not to see and, gently ruffling Isabella’s hair, said, “You all have fun. I’ll go back to my room now.”
After saying this, she didn’t even glance at Franklin or Levi. She simply turned and left.
Watching Adele leave, Franklin noticed her cold expression. There was no trace of the concern and unease she had shown when she learned that Julia was coming. It seemed she was no longer bothered by it at all.
Isabella was still there, so Franklin couldn’t speak openly. He leaned closer to Levi and lowered his voice, asking, “What’s going on?”
Franklin’s tone didn’t change. He asked, “Did you come alone?”
“Of course not. Who would come alone to such a good event like soaking in hot springs? I naturally brought my precious little one along!” Levi grinn as he spoke.
Before he could finish, he paused, turned his head toward Franklin, and said, “Wait a minute, you’re changing the subject.”
Franklin didn’t deny it. He simply said, “Your precious one has arrived.”
As he finished speaking, a tall and curvaceous woman wearing nothing but a bikini under her open bathrobe walked toward them.

In her room, Adele had changed into her regular clothes and was allting at sunal round table, opening her
exhibits from the recent tech exhibition.
Half an hour later, combining the research she had gathered during this time, she suddenly had an liten she picked up her phot• chữ c Are you free?”
Tm at a masquerade party, what’s up?” Johnny answered.
Adele explained her idea to him.
Johnny’s expression grew serious yet excited. “Hold on, I’ll head back right now.”
“Okay.”
After hanging up the phone, Adele focused intently on her work once more.
She had no idea how much time had passed, but she suddenly heard voices from downstairs.
Adele froze for a moment, realizing that it was probably Harry and Julia who had arrived.
Adele stood up and closed the window.
At this point, she realized she was feeling a bit hungry. She used the internal phone line to order a meal to be sent to her room.
The staff quickly agreed.
When her meal was ready, the staff immediately brought it up to her room.
On their way through the lobby toward the elevator, they crossed paths with Franklin and the others.
Levi asked, “This meal is for…?”
The staff immediately responded, “It’s for Madam.”
Only someone as prominent as Adele would be addressed as “Madam” by the staff.
The others didn’t make things difficult for the staff and allowed him to deliver the meal.
However, after the staff left, Levi smiled and said, “Seems like we won’t have to invite her down to
Franklin, however, calmly said, “Still, let’s invite her.”
At this, Julia paused, pressing her lips together before glancing at Franklin.
Harry and Levi were also momentarily stunned.
eat later.”
However, Levi quickly laughed and said, “True. Grandma did specifically ask you to take good care of her. If we eat without inviting her, it wouldn’t end well if Grandma finds out.”
After all, this was the Collins family’s private resort. Grandma likely had eyes and ears here, so any movement on their part could easily be reported
back to her.
Upon hearing this, Julia relaxed her lips.
She had thought that Grandma Collins’s match–making would really make Franklin care for Adele, but after hearing Levi’s words, she realized she had been overthinking it.
Harry also looked away after hearing Levi’s words.
Just then, Isabella returned. Franklin ruffled her hair and said, “Go upstairs and ask Mom to come down for dinner.”
Isabella froze for a moment and hesitated before asking, “Should I ask Mom to come down and eat with us?”
“Yes,”
Isabella opened her mouth as if to say something, but she frowned and then looked at Julia.
