“Yes, I’m Isla Saxon, but you can just call me Isla—no need for the last name,” the little girl replied cheerfully.
Grandpa Kensington burst into laughter, feeling happier than he had in a long time. The presence of such a joyful child brought warmth to the otherwise quiet house, filling it with a sense of warmth and affection.
Vanessa was momentarily taken aback but still encouraged, “Isla, say hello.”
As she said this, she glanced at Luca, subtly indicating who Isla was supposed to greet.
Isla blinked her eyes, and her expressions mirrored Vanessa’s from years ago, pure and innocent.
What a pity he had lost that…
“Hello, Uncle Luca!” Isla sweetly called out, stepping closer and grabbing one of his fingers. She marveled, “Uncle, your hand is so big! It’s much stronger than Mommy’s…”

If that were the case, her insistence on getting involved could only be seen as reckless.“Alright, if you need my help, just let me know, Mr. Kensington,” she replied. Still half-asleep, she felt she could squeeze in a bit more rest.
