Olivia remarked, "Boys are never as attentive as girls! Besides, kids are so busy with work these days, it's understandable."
Clifford used to understand that.
But now, seeing how busy Isla Astir was, yet still making time to celebrate her father's birthday, made it hard for him to understand.
It's not like he's some big president!
Does she really need to be that busy?
In the end, it's all about the lack of intention.
Olivia had prepared a whole table of delicious food and even brought out the Maotai that was usually reserved for the New Year.
After dinner, Isla Astir presented the birthday gift she had prepared for her father.
When he saw the two little Corgis, William Astir was extremely excited, "Isla, thank you!"
He was genuinely over the moon!
As he spoke, something seemed to cross William's mind, and he looked pitifully at Olivia, "But will your mom let me keep dogs?"
