So naturally, his mood remained very good.
That was why he kept smiling a little.
And that was exactly what made Isabella suspicious again.
When he came back to check the water once more, she looked at him and asked, "You still have not answered properly. Why were you smiling earlier?"
Osiris crouched in front of her and looked at her face first before answering.
Then he said, "Because you looked cute with those cubs."
For one second, Isabella simply stared at him.
Then her face heated up again.
This was because the answer had come out too naturally and too seriously. If he had laughed and teased her, she could have scolded him immediately. But he looked completely sincere, as if telling her that the sky was blue.
So she had no defense.
Finally she said, "You are becoming very smooth for someone who used to live in the mountains."
Osiris looked faintly puzzled. "What does that have to do with anything?"
