The Three Little Guardian Angels
Chapter 693

Chapter 693

Russell brought Louis into the study room. After they took their seats in front of the table, he asked the maid to bring them the tea.

Louis scanned around the study room. The study room had a rather simplistic and classic decoration. All of the books displayed on the shelves ranged from classical to modern titles. It seemed to him that the Hills were indeed worthy of being a scholarly family in Bassburgh.

After the maid served the tea, Louis stopped Russell when he was going to pour him the tea. He said, "Let me do it, Mr. Hill."

Russell chuckled and replied, "It's okay."

After pouring the tea, he sighed. "I'm sorry for what happened today."

Holding the cup of tea in his hand, Louis said, "You were tough on Ryleigh, but I know that you never hit her hard no matter how angry you were with her."

Russell let out a bitter smile. It was true that he had beaten Ryleigh a lot of times, but he never beat her hard. After all, she was his only daughter, and he doted on her a lot.

He sighed. "It's true that I didn't dare to beat or scold her too hard in the past, but she has been so rebellious since she graduated that I can't stop worrying about

her. I'm worried that she might go down the wrong path and get in trouble. I'm sure that you know she has a fiery temper, and when it's time for her to get married..."

Ryleigh was pressing herself against the door to eavesdrop on the conversation between Louis and her father. Then, she heard the word "get married." Just when she was about to enter the study room to end the conversation, even if her father was going to beat the hell out of her, Louis' voice rang out.

He said, "I'm not trying to stick my nose into your family affairs, Mr. Hill, but in my opinion, you don't have to worry about that. Even if I get married to Ryleigh in the future, I can accept her for who she is." Ryleigh was stunned and loosened her hand that was gripping tightly on the handle.

"Louis, are you sure about that? Can you really accept Ryleigh?" Russell asked, his voice filled with surprise..

After all, it was Larissa who had brought up this arrangement. He was worried about whether his daughter could get married, and he was happy to have someone willing to marry her. It was just that he was worried that no one could handle his daughter's temper like him.

Louis smiled faintly and said, "I know Ryleigh isn't as incompetent as she seems. She's a gem that hasn't been polished."

Russell was stunned for a moment, and then he chuckled. "You're right. I've almost forgotten how talented and great she used to be."

Suddenly, he recalled something and got up to his feet. He went to the table behind him and pulled a photo album out of the drawer. After that, he returned to the seat and flipped the photo album open slowly. Ryleigh had been a pretty and elegant girl since she was a kid. She had a graceful air about her, and she used to be very talented in all kinds of things such as painting, chess-playing, music, and so on. Most of Ryleigh's photos had been taken on the stage. She was either wearing her performance dress or a costume. A few photos showed her playing violin and piano on the stage. She also had taken opera singing from a tutor, and she had performed on stage since she was seven.

Louis flipped the photo album toward the last few pages. There are a few photos of the backstage of the high school party, and there was this particular photo showing three people.

Ryleigh was standing in the center. On the left was Maisie, while Louis had never seen the boy on the right before. However, he was familiar with this photo.

"Mr. Hill, can you give this photo to me?"

Russell was stunned for a moment before nodding." Sure. You can have it. After all, she doesn't know about the existence of this photo al-"

Ryleigh barged in before Russel could finish his sentence, and he nearly spilled his tea.

She looked at the photo album silently. Russell hastily put the cup down and put the photo album out of Ryleigh's sight. Then, he said, "Where are your manners, Ryleigh? How can you not knock on the door?" Ryleigh stretched her arm forward and said, "Give me the photo album."
