“He’s…”
Flossie was uneasy as she struggled to introduce Mr.Q to Abby.
Abby would have driven him away with the small shovel if she had informed her he was coming to acquire Sun Island.
“He’s a new friend I made in Beach City,” she answered hopelessly since this was the only response she could come up with.
“Mommy’s friend?”
Abby stepped out of Flossie’s embrace and moved up to Mr. Q. She smiled pleasantly and glanced at him before grasping his palm in her small hand.” Greetings from Sun Island. You’re my friend too because you’re mommy’s buddy!”
Mr. Q’s frigid expression vanished, and it was clear that Abby’s kindness warmed his chilly heart.
As a result, he knelt and shook Abby’s hand, saying, “Nice to meet you, little girl. Not only am I your mother’s friend, but I am also your brother’s buddy. I am confident that the four of us will be great friends.”
“Of course!”
“Mommy doesn’t have many friends, especially male friends,” Abby said, her eyes sparkling with delight. “Her only pals for the last four years had been Daddy Liam and Auntie Leia. I used to think she was lonely, but now that you’re her buddy, you should spend more time with her!”
“Daddy Liam? Is he your mother’s husband?” Mr. Q inquired.
“No. Mommy is not married. Daddy Liam isn’t our biological father; he’s just our legal father,” Abby said truthfully.
“Ahem!”
Flossie coughed and rubbed her brow inconveniently. “OK, Abby, that’s enough. Mr. Q is a normal friend of mine. You are not required to tell him anything about myself.”
Abby was a little angel who thought everyone was wonderful and had no defense against anything. She would tell a stranger every detail, which often left Flossie in a bind.
Mr. Q had a smile on his face as he stroked Abby’s head. “This island is stunning. Would you mind being my tour guide and showing me around?”
“Come with me!”
Abby took his hand in hers and raced forward without hesitation. She was full of energy and cheerful, which only made her cuter.
Meanwhile, Flossie and Margaret followed them.
Margaret felt defensive as he questioned Flossie while staring at the man’s back. ’Did everything go well, Miss Flossie? Why did you bring a guy here unexpectedly? With the mask on, he seems strange, as if he is a wicked guy. Is he reliable?”
Flossie let out a deep sigh and told Margaret everything that had transpired.
“He’s neither good nor evil. He is, in fact, a businessman. He’s come to ponder on whether or not the island is worthy. If he enjoys it, we’ll have to leave the island and go back to Beach City.”
“Return to Beach City?”
“Yes. I found Addie and Abby a kindergarten. Although there are a few issues with constructing the Ellsworth house, I’ll work on them gradually. The objective is that both children may have regular lives like the other youngsters.”
She doesn’t have to be as low-key now that Halston has died since she doesn’t have to worry about his taking her children away.
“This is great news. But there’s one thing I’m concerned about…” Margaret replied dejectedly, her expression somber
“Margaret, you can tell me about your concerns,” Flossie said.
“Miss Flossie, you know Addie and Abby grew up here on Sun Island, they barely have any contact with the outside world. I’m not concerned about Addie. He’s a clever child who is quite defensive, so no one can trick him. But I’m concerned about Abby. She’s a tiny angel with no defensive abilities. I’m concerned she’ll encounter some nasty individuals when she leaves Sun Island. The most important fact is that Abby has health problems and has difficulty breathing. She needs fresh air to breathe. Even here on Sun Island, where the air is clean, she’ll become sick now and again; what will happen if she moves to the city?”
Flossie seemed concerned when she heard this. “This concerns me as well. But Abbie cannot constantly be shielded; she must learn from her surroundings. I’ll do my best to locate a suitable location in Beach City.”
“When it comes to a healthy environment, there are only two areas in Beach City where the tree coverage is greater. One is near the Ellsworth home, while the other is the Guajardo residence’s care farm.’
“Margaret, you may not know this, but the Ellsworth residence will be turned into a garbage disposal area.”
“What!”
Margaret was stunned and enraged. “How could they have been so cruel? Master and Mistress choose the Ellsworth Mansion. It is the foundation of the Ellsworth family. It can’t possibly be a rubbish disposal site!”
“Margaret, don’t be overly emotional,’ Flossie encouraged her. ‘I’ll fix this. The Ellsworth home is equally significant as Sun Island since it has many memories. I will do all in my power to safeguard both locations.”
Meanwhile, Abby was jumping about like a bunny, clutching Mr.Q’s hand and showing him the home she lived in.
“This is our home, Uncle. Does it resemble a castle? I’m the princess, and Addie is the prince, according to Mommy.”
Mr. Q looked around the home and noted that every room was arranged in a really beautiful and pleasant manner.
The wind chime was constructed of seashells, bright bottles were converted into ornaments, and vivid paintings on the wall transformed the house into a dream home from a storybook.
“Uncle Q, do you think our house is perfect?”
Mr. Q grinned. “Your house is lovely, but there’s something missing.”
“What exactly do you mean?” “What is lacking?”
“Has your mother ever told you any fairy tales?”
“Of course!” She proudly raised her chin and said, “Mommy has told me all the fairy tales in the world.”
“Well, think carefully, who else is missing besides the prince, princess, and queen in a castle?”
Abby scowled and paused before saying, “I know, the servants!”
Mr. Q was at a loss for words when he heard this.
“Aside from the servants, there are the guards, the evil witch, fairies, and…”
The small girl identified every character in the narrative, but none of them was the one Mr. Q was implying.
“Hasn’t your mother told you that the most important character in a castle is the king?” he remarked earnestly. Your palace is complete with the exception of a king.’
He cleared his throat and stood up straight, attempting to persuade the girl that he was the ideal candidate for kingship.
“That’s not true,” Abby responded, shaking her head. “My mother is the ruler of this castle. She’s fantastic!”
Mr. Q was stunned, and it seemed that Flossie had a strong influence on Addie and Abby.
Margaret went to the kitchen to make supper in the afternoon.
Meanwhile, Flossie, Mr. Q, and Abby were playing games at the dining table.
“How about we play truth or dare? Here’s a deck of cards. Whoever receives the Joker must listen to the player who received the King and choose between either a truth or a dare.
Abby enthusiastically handed out the cards. This was her favorite game.
Flossie and Addie would constantly beat her and Margaret.
‘Since the masked uncle is here, I must win for once!’ she reasoned to herself.
