Pearl looked around but didn’t see Hanzel anywhere, so she shook her head. “I can’t. I have work to do.”
“Are you looking for Mister Hanzel? Laura brought him to the garden so they’re probably there.”
Pearl couldn’t help but smile as she imagined Hanzel playing with a child. “Alright, I’ll go take a look.”
Allan knew this meant they were staying for lunch so he gestured at Lindsay to start cooking.
As Pearl walked into the garden, she quickly spotted Hanzel sitting on a bamboo chair with a bunch of flowers in his hand. He was patiently weaving them into a flower crown.
Seeing the handsome actor engaged in such a playful activity amused Pearl. “I didn’t know you had that skill.”
Hanzel replied, “I learned it in elementary school. You might not know, but even though Mobius has a temper now, he used to be very shy and loved cute things. None of the older three brothers would make anything for him, and I’m the only one with a good temper, so I learned a few flower crown weaving techniques just for him.”
Pearl couldn’t help but laugh out loud, thinking the imposing Mobius used to love such things.
Laura ran over with more flowers and handed them to Hanzel before joining in to help with the crown. She gazed at Hanzel with admiration and said, “Pea, your boyfriend is so nice. This crown is so pretty!”
Pearl almost choked on her words. “Wait, who told you he’s my boyfriend?”
Laura innocently replied, “He did. He said he’s your boyfriend, and you’re getting married next year. It’s a shame because I wanted to introduce you to my cousin so you can be my cousin-in-law.”
Laura looked disappointed and sighed. “If that’s the case, you should love each other well. It’s not easy finding a boyfriend who can make flower crowns. You need to treat him nicely.’
”
Pearl was left speechless. “Alright, don’t listen to him. We’re not a couple.” novelbin
The child who was sighing immediately perked up. “Really? So you can be with my cousin? He’s really good-looking. Although he’s a little cold, a lot of girls want to be with him. He’ll be coming tomorrow to take me home, and I’ll bring you to meet him.”
Pearl didn’t know how to react to this sudden matchmaking attempt by a seven or eight-year-old.
“Don’t say yes!” Hanzel exclaimed, feeling anxious. While he hadn’t responded to Pearl’s earlier comment, he couldn’t stand the thought of a new love rival due to a child’s matchmaking efforts.
“Why are you yelling?” Pearl rolled her eyes, tempted to give him a light slap to clear his mind.
Seeing Pearl’s reaction, Hanzel warned Laura instead. “Listen, if you try to set Pearl up with someone, I’ll stop making this crown for you.”
Laura, being clever, fired back with a threat of her own. “If you don’t make it for me, I’ll introduce her to someone!”
Pearl found herself caught in the middle of their exchange. She couldn’t help but wonder if they had considered her feelings in
all of this.
