Livid Guardian's Endless Coddling

Chapter 476: My little lady



In Finn's villa,

As soon as four entered the villa, Dustin scurried away as fast as he could to avoid hearing Finn ask him to stay in the guest room.

Arsh had been to Finn's villa so he was aware of the things, he went inside next to Finn who was carrying Arna listening to her blabber like the most precious golden words.

It was the first time for Rose so she slowly looked around the pure white decors villa which had only colors here and there to avoid making it look pale. Busy looking around, she didn't notice Finn pause.

Finn turned to say, 'Make yourself comfortable.' but she straight bumped to him looking at the swimming pool.

Arna giggled and Finn controlled from furrowing his brows. Rose quickly stood back and bowed to Finn, "I am sorry, President Stanely, I was a little absent-minded." She saw Finn's expressionless face and continued, "Your villa is beautiful." She really liked it.

Arna excitedly asked, "Isn't it!?" Then patted Finn and continued, "It's My darling Finn's taste. And…"

"Snow!" A baby voice called her from the living hall. Arna got off Finn's arm understanding her brother was summoning her to scold.

Finn knew the reason so he let them be and looked at Rose who already knew about the villa. He pointed to the hallway and spoke, "Go straight, take left, right side first room. Settle your things there and make yourself comfortable." He said looking at her gown.

He could say, she was glued to television right after hearing the news about Saira Hayek linking to Alan Morgan so she hadn't changed.

Rose wanted little friendliness in his voice but it was void of any possible emotions as though he was talking to the air. She nodded, "Thank you, President Stanely."

Then she obediently walked towards the guest room without looking here and there.

On the other end, Arsh crossed his arms looking at Arna who was smiling slyly. Because there was a huge box of toys Finn bought for her.

Arsh couldn't understand why she wants so many toys and why Finn gets her whatever she likes. The twins had toy rooms in the Cooper and Morgan mansion, if Aria hadn't strictly objected, they would have had another toy room in Stanley mansion however she was helpless when it's Finn who spoils the little brat.

"Brother Nemo, I want to build a huge castle so it's the only new one there." Arna tried to reason and saw her brother going and sat on the couch to watch television.

Finn, who started prepping in the open kitchen for dinner, kept his eyes on the little ones too to make sure they don't hurt themselves. However, he was speechless seeing news channels instead of cartoons. According to him, his parents were ruining the childhood of Arsh without knowing it was always him who wanted to watch it unless Snow put kids' channel.

Finn too heard how the stepbrother of Edgar confessed and the progress of the case before the news channel shut and Arsh sat with Arna to read the instructions to build the castle.

Finn really wanted to think they are little kids seeing them play but seeing them slowly decipher the instruction without help, he gave up on his thought. After two minutes, Arsh tugged his pants and pointed to a word, "Uncle Finn, I don't have a tab to check the dictionary, I don't know the meaning and pronunciation of this word."

Finn stood on a knee and saw the word he was pointing, "Anweisung!? It means instructions in the German language. The toy is imported from Germany so they have instruction in two languages."

He expected Arsh to nod and leave but the latter thought for a few seconds and asked, "How many languages are there in the world?"

Finn remembered Aria's habit of nonstop questioning and smiled, "There are thousands of languages." He meant to say there are numerous languages.

But Arsh didn't move an inch, "How many thousands?"

Finn: "..." He really didn't know that and didn't know Arsh knew the number thousand.

Rose who watched the duo, kneeled and turned Arsh around so that he could face two, "There are nearly 7 thousand languages however 40 percent of languages are endangered with less number of people using it."

Arsh nodded at Rose and asked, "How many languages do you know, Aunty Rose and Uncle Finn?"

Finn: "Five." Rose, "Six."

Arsh again nodded and mumbled to himself as he walked away leaving the two speechless, "I will learn ten."

Arna, who was building saw Rose and Finn standing together, "Aunty Rose, will you please make dessert for us? Pleasee…" She dragged her baby voice pleading to Rose who melted right away.

Rose had to repeatedly ask Finn about ingredients causing her to repeat the same words, 'President Stanley,' 'Thank you'. The overhearing ears were displeased so she demanded, "Aunty Rose, why don't you call my Darling by name? Or… I will share the name, call him Darling."

"Darling?" Rose said and flushed, "No, no."

Arna jumped to Finn's arms when he kneeled to her height looking at her run to the kitchen, "My Darling Finn won't mind it. Aunty Rose, I feel like we are in office hearing President… President… President all the time." She complained.

The over smart Rose didn't want the little one to be sad, "Okay." Arna was excited to hear Darling but, "I will call Young Master Stanley."

'Thap' Arna literally facepalmed herself hearing her causing Finn to chuckle and instruct, "It's alright, call me Finn. My little lady won't leave you easily."

"My Darling is the best." Arna beamed and turned to Rose to hear her say the name.

Rose looked at Arna and Finn repeatedly before softly saying, "Okay, I will call Finn."

Arna controlled her best to avoid face-palming again, "Aunty Rose, are you talking to yourself? Call a little loud but sweetly."

Finn shook his head resignedly and placed her on the chair at the dining table as he arranged the table. Rose mustered herself and called, "Finn!"

Finn subconsciously responded to the soft lovely adult voice, "Yeah!" Then he realized she was practicing his name on Arna's pester.

Arna triumphantly announced, "Now chant the name."

Finn helplessly looked at the widely grinning little girl and Rose whose eyes were wide as a saucer causing him to chuckle heartily. He couldn't believe, even after three years, this lady was the same, easily fooled by even a little girl.

On Arna's continuous chatter, Rose started as she blushed hopelessly, "Finn… Finn… Finn…"

Finn: "..."

He had an urge to go near her and flick on the head as hard as he could, 'What in the world is happening?' However, he didn't realize he was actually giving attention to hear her utter each time.
