Sylvia stood utterly speechless as the old man continued lamenting for a few good minutes before settling down.
"Welcome back child. This grandpa will take better care of you this time around." He cleared his throat and finally released her from his tight grasp.
He then turned and shot a murderous glance towards Roman, who took another step back.
But when his gaze returned to Sylvia, it was gentle and loving once again."Why are you staying here, pumpkin? Did this stinky brat do something funny to you?"
Roman almost choked on air after hearing this unfair accusation, especially seeing that Sylvia was taking her sweet time to respond.
"Your highness." He gnashed his teeth and muttered. "It was me who rescued your precious granddaughter from the humans."
What an ungrateful grandfather and granddaughter pair!!!
But sadly, that did not earn him any brownie points as the old man immediately shot back.
