Ch. 301 A Mother's Prayer

"We still have time before the clock hit midnight. Do you want to talk to Lori?" whispered Richard when he felt Anxia calm down and stop crying.

Anxia glanced at Elliot, sitting on Jamie's lap while joking happily with Mei Yin, then glanced back at her husband. "I've spoken to Elliot. He said he wanted to surprise Lori and his grandparents by showing up in person, so he would not be making video calls with them."

Anxia chuckled at this. "Elliot reminds me of someone."

"Who?" Anxia winked seductively, inviting laughter at Richard. "No. I'm not that naughty."

"I don't believe it. Your mother told me about your mischief when you were a child."

Richard nodded in surrender, laughing, "Alright, alright. So you want to talk to our daughter?"

"Of course. I haven't wished her a happy birthday yet."
