Falling for the Goddess

Sara is So Pretty!

Everyone turned toward the door. Karen Carter entered with a bag in one hand and holding Jimmy Blake with the other. Behind them, a servant followed, carrying several bags.

As soon as Jimmy Blake spotted Adrian Blake, he let go of Karen Carter's hand and dashed toward him. "Adrian!" His childlike voice rang out as he threw himself into his big brother's arms.

Adrian Blake instinctively caught him, his expression remaining as calm and distant as usual.

"Zelda is back too!" Karen Carter greeted with a smile, directing the servant to set down the gifts. "These are specially brought for you to help nourish your body. Drinking some every morning will be good for your health."

Zelda Blake nodded toward her. "Hi Karen"

Grandma Blake smiled, "You're so thoughtful. Where's Thomas?"

Karen Carter set her bag aside and explained, "He's still busy, but he told me to let you know he'll definitely be back before dinner."

Adrian Blake's eyes darkened slightly. Sara Hart noticed and couldn't help but feel a little worried, recalling the previous tension between Adrian Blake and his father.

"That's fine, come have a seat," Grandma Blake said, then turned toward Jimmy Blake, who was clinging to Adrian Blake. "Jimmy..."

Jimmy Blake, still leaning on Adrian Blake, finally looked up and greeted everyone in his childish voice, "Hello, Grandma! Hello, Auntie!"

Then he looked at Sara, tilting his head curiously before calling out, "Hello, pretty girl!"

Grandma Blake playfully tapped him on the forehead with her finger, smiling. "You should call her Sara!"

"But she's a pretty girl! Sara is so pretty!" Jimmy's innocent words made everyone laugh. Nearby, Kyle Thorne chimed in, teasing him.

"So did your teacher also teach you how to treat pretty girls?"

Jimmy Blake blinked, his big, round eyes darting around in confusion.

Kyle Thorne chuckled, about to continue his teasing, "You're supposed to give pretty girls compliments "

Before he could finish, Zelda Blake lightly smacked him on the head with a crisp slap. "Don't teach him such things!"

"I was just joking..." Kyle Thorne pouted, looking wronged.

Karen Carter waved to Jimmy Blake. "Don't cling to your big brother the moment you get home. Sara should be the one next to him."

Jimmy turned his head, looking between Adrian and Sara. Pointing at the space on the sofa between them, he asked, "But there's an empty spot between Adrian and Sara!"

Everyone froze for a moment.

Grandma Blake was the first to break into laughter. "You clever little rascal," she said, holding out her arms. "Come here, let Grandma see if you've gained any weight."

Reluctantly, Jimmy Blake moved from Adrian Blake's side, though it was clear that he'd been clinging to his brother all on his own.

Jimmy Blake, not yet five years old and attending kindergarten, was an adorable boy with fair skin, rosy lips, and bright eyes full of curiosity. He often unintentionally made everyone laugh with his innocent comments. The entire Blake family, from relatives to servants, adored him. But despite being doted on by everyone, he always preferred sticking to Adrian Blake, who was aloof and distant. He had been like this since he was a toddler.

Curled up in Grandma Blake's arms, Jimmy listened to the grown-ups' conversation - most of which he didn't understand - while he busily cracked nuts on his own, refusing help from anyone.
