"Yey! Thank you, Grandpa. Don't worry about me. I assure you. I am safe here!" Aaron butted in. He was overjoyed since he could spend more time with Dominique.
"Alright, grandson. I know you are well-behaved. Mr. Smith will never have a hard time taking care of you. Just enjoy," Miguel responded dotingly.
"Thank you, Mr. Ivankov for trusting me. I'll see you around."
With that, Dominique ended the call with a triumphant smile on his face. He glanced at Athena who was still in a trance.
'I can't believe this. The super strict Mr. Miguel Ivankov let Aaron stay in Dominique's place. Do they know each other?' Athena mused to herself.
"How about you, Aunt Athena? Are you going home tonight?" Aaron asked her, snapping her out of her stupor.
"Huh? Me. No. I won't go home. I'll stay here as well."
Aaron's eyes sparkled with delight upon hearing that. "Really?! You won't go home because of me, Aunt?"
