Chapter 1479: 368: Young Miss Song Family!_2 Chapter 1479: 368: Young Miss Song Family!_2 “Mm,” Phoebe Perryne nodded, “Everything's ready.”
Just then, there came a knock on the door.
“Who is it?” Norma Augus asked.
The voice outside the door said, “Mrs. Augus, Miss Augus, breakfast is ready.”
“Alright, we'll come down immediately.”
As she finished speaking, Norma Augus turned to look at Phoebe.
Phoebe then stood up.
The mother and daughter together came to the dining room downstairs.
They were still on the stairs when laughter came from the dining room. Then they heard Grace White's voice, “Flora, you and everyone else must learn from Viola, don't sleep in, wake up early for a morning run. It's good for your health.”
“You might as well kill me if you make me wake up early,” Flora Tiarks picked up a piece of bread, “I can't do it.”
Immediately, Kent Tiarks interjected: “Mommy! I can wake up! From tomorrow morning on, I'll learn from Viola, wake up early, and act like a little man!”
Having said this, he even formed a superhero gesture with his hands.
Grace White looked at Kent with a smile and said, “Good.”
Then, Grace White looked at Flora again and said, “You should learn more from your brother!”
Flora rolled her eyes at Kent.
Kent made a face at Flora.
These two siblings brought much amusement to the ordinarily peaceful Tiarks family.
Kent ran over to Viola Thompson, put his hands on his hips, and snorted at Flora, “I don't like you at all! I like Viola the most!”
Diana Hershey chuckled and said, “What about me, Kent? You only like Viola, don't you care about me?”
“I love you too, Diana!”
Fiona Knight joined in, “What about me?”
Kent nodded hastily, “I love you too! Fiona, Diana, Viola, I love you all!”
Diana continued to play along, “Out of the three of us, who do you love the most?”
Kent answered, “Of course, I love all of you.”
Diana shook her head, “You can't love all of us. You have to choose who you love the most.”
Kent seemed to be in a difficult position, then said, “Adults can't love everyone, but children can, because I'm only six this year! So, I can love everyone!”
The little guy's adorable declaration caused everyone to burst out laughing.
Even the usually stern-faced Glenn Tiarks joined in the laughter.
“Good morning Uncle and Aunt,” Norma Augus approached them at this moment. “Good morning, Mr. White.”
Norma had a soft smile on her face, portraying a gentle and generous demeanor. “Good morning, Fiona, Diana, young Miss Flora, Miss Knight.”
Lastly, she squatted in front of Kent and ruffled his hair, “Good morning, little Kent.”
Norma was extremely polite, she greeted almost everyone.
Kent wasn't familiar or particularly fond of Norma, but his mother had always told him that good kids were polite even if they didn't like someone, they could not let it show.
“Auntie, oops!” Kent realized he spoke inappropriately and immediately covered his mouth. Then, he corrected himself: “Good morning, Sister.”
The moment she heard him say 'aunt', Norma's face darkened, it lightened up as soon as he corrected his mistake.
Why would Kent call her aunt?
Mr. White must be testing her.
Since Mr. White was a generation older than Kent.
If she were to be with Mr. White in the future, she'd then be Kent and Flora's aunt.
The term 'aunt' is of the same generation as aunt-in-law.
Moreover, Mr. White wanted to see her reaction.
Thankfully, she was clever enough to understand quickly.
Otherwise, she would've taken a while to get it.
Upon hearing the word 'aunt', Flora couldn't help but burst into laughter.
She also thought that Norma seemed quite old.
Especially when she laughed.
She was fusty.
No doubt about it, children are the most discerning.
Norma was not offended by this incident, on the contrary, she smiled and said to Kent, “Little Kent, you don't have to call me sister, you can call me auntie. Considering I'm already nineteen years older than you.”
Kent was about to say something, but Grace White immediately interrupted, “You can't call her aunt, Norma is only six years older than Flora.”
All girls are incredibly conscious of their ages.
Especially young girls like Flora.
Norma replied softly, “It's okay, I'm old enough to be an aunt now.”
Grace White continued to shake her head, “We can't break the rules.”
Norma didn't say anything more.
As long as she conveyed her intentions to Mr. White, it would suffice.
