Find Me In Your Labyrinth novel Chapter 1569

Mrs. James chuckled, "The little squirrel seems to have no manners."

"Well, that's probably because its mom didn't raise it right!" Kya commented, a bit miffed.

Mrs. James laughed so hard at her childish remark that her stomach hurt.

Half an hour later, Charlie came to find Kya. Mrs. James was still enjoying her time with Kya and said, "You go about your business, I'll hang out with Kya."

"It's getting late. She should go home," Charlie smiled. "Oh, can't you bear to part with Kya after just a little while?"

Mrs. James shot him a pretend-angry look. "If you had your own kids earlier, would I need to be so crazy about other people’s kids?"

Charlie just smiled, not saying a word.

Mrs. James remembered a question she had earlier and quietly asked Charlie, "Tell me the truth, is Kya your secret love child?"

Charlie's smile faded slightly, "No."

Mrs. James was still persistent, "Even if she is, it's fine. How could I reject my own granddaughter? Just tell me the truth, I promise I won't be mad!"

"It's really not! If she were my daughter, do you think I'd hide it from you?" Charlie said lightly, not wanting to continue the conversation. He turned towards Kya, who was crouching in the bushes, "Kya, time to go home!"

Kya turned to look at him, serious-faced, "Charlie, there's a 'cuckoo' here."

Charlie bent down and saw an injured baby sparrow in the bushes.

Because Kya's nanny, Ms. Simmons, often imitated the sound of a cuckoo when telling stories, Kya named all birds cuckoo.

"It probably fell from a tree." Charlie picked up the baby bird and noticed its leg was cut. It was shaking in fear.

"What's wrong with the cuckoo?" Kya asked worriedly.

Mrs. James walked over and exclaimed in surprise, "Is there really a bird? Kya, this isn't a cuckoo. It's a sparrow."
