Chapter 1061 Bob?-3

" Thank you, Uncle Bob!" Elise said in a cheerful tone. Bob who was walking ahead almost tripped hearing her call him uncle again.

" Let's not get carried away. Why are you calling me uncle? I am not that old. Just call me big brother or Bob, alright?"

" Ah? But..." Elise shifted around trying to think if she made a mistake or something.

" What?"

" You are so tall and big. Grandma told me that people that look called should be called uncle or aunt. I know many such people in Sami's family." She explained in a childlike way which didn't make sense. It seemed like what happened with Samuel's aunt, Mary stuck with her. She never changed her stance and called her aunt until the day of her departure.

Mary would always grit her teeth because she herself taught Samuel not to do it and always call her big sister even when she was in her early thirties but how should she convince the little girl to do the same after all she was quite younger than when Samuel first entered the Rothschild family not to mention, he was quite smart and knew about the intricacies of interpersonal relationships.

" Forget it." Bob could only sigh and stop imploring her beside he started to feel uncomfortable again when Elise grabbed hold of his hand again, only this time he was leading.

Bob did promise to help beside, he was well verge in calming people through changing his stance like a chameleon after all he liked to go around the world for stroll and it was a must have skill to diffuse the situation even when his real personality was completely opposite to someone who would ever bow to anyone for anything.

He played the part so well, that Eleanor and Mathilda only glanced at him before looking at the little girl again who was clearly feeling remorseful, just afraid to say anything. Eleanor step ahead and patted her head and said," You have to remember to tell us before you do that again. It has already happen two times, next time I will strictly enforce the snack ban."

Elise who was happy hearing the first sentence paled when she heard about the punishment again. Although, yesterday Samuel said it was only right for them to teach her a lesson so that she wouldn't do it again but both Mathilda and Eleanor were against it.

Samuel couldn't do anything against Eleanor while Kayla and Mayra couldn't defy Mathilda after all she hardly spoke against them but when she did the kids have to listen to her without question. She wasn't as soft as everyone always presume her to be after all she lived through the german rule and migrated during the crisis, people with such life stories were always hardened by their experience not to mention she had a mixed son which she raised after the war.

" Thank you for your help young man..Bob. Thanks for keeping her company, she has been getting mischievous by every passing day." She thanked Bob who was being ignored while Eleanor lectured Elise.

" It's my pleasure. Every tourist is a valuable guest for us. It wasn't a problem because she behaved quite well." Bob lied through his teeth but Mathilda was happy to see him praise the little girl as all elders tend to do.

" Well, it's my job." He was a little moved by how much they cared about Elise, he remembered his childhood, there were no signs of people like them when he was growing up. He didn't feel he did anything exception but was nice to see their gratitude.

With his work done, he was ready to slip away. It would be tough to deal with Eleanor if she got suspicious of him so he wanted to leave before that happens after all he was under a bogus identity but as soon as he turned away Eleanor stopped him by tapping his shoulder.@@@@
