Breaking Free, Loving Again -The Flash Marriage with Mr. CEO novel Chapter 286

"Granna, Mom I was all alone at home. Can I stay with you?" Although words came soft and pitiful, the little girl stared at Brenda with the confidence that often accompanies pride, as if even in a pitiful state she couldn’t let anyone pity her. "I have already completed my homework. I won’t disturb you rather I would learn from you."

Brenda quirked her brows at those last words as she couldn’t help but ask, her words full of amusement. "You want to learn from me?"

The little girl nodded without any reservation. "Of course, if Arwen tags along Granna, she would see her business and when she sees her do business, she will definitely learn it well."

The logic was feasible, but it still brought a chuckle out of Brenda because no matter how logical those reasons seemed, coming out from the mouth of a four-year-old, it still felt fun.

When the little girl saw her grandmother laughing, she pouted and asked, "Why are you laughing, Granna? I am being serious."

Brenda stared at the little one, holding back her smile and then making her expression go serious. "Business rule number 1: Don’t do anything that will incur you a loss."

The little girl blinked. "Loss?" she asked innocently as the words were difficult to understand at her young age.

"Yes, a loss," Brenda repeated. "If I teach you and you learn everything, it’s you who gained the knowledge, while I benefit nothing. Then doesn’t that mean that I made a loss?"

The girl didn’t respond immediately. But she did listen to it intently. Pondering for a moment about it, she slowly said, "Not benefitting from a situation doesn’t mean a complete loss. It means there is still room to find the benefit."

Her words paused Brenda for a moment. She halted at her words as she stared at her, waiting for her to continue. "If Granna doesn’t want to make the loss, then she can use me in future. I heard Mom once discussing with Dad that an investment today will give the returns tomorrow. I can be Granna’s investment."

Those words astounded Brenda. That wittiness definitely came from the genes, but still, it burst like a surprise. She just wanted to tease the little one before taking her along with her, but she estimated her to be so clever at such a young age.

"Didn’t you say you didn’t understand loss just now?" Brenda asked and the little one nodded.

"I still don’t understand it well, but I pieced them together."

If Brenda said that she was just surprised by her wits then it would be a lie because she was more proud of this little granddaughter of hers.

"Fine, then I, Brenda Davies, will make this investment today," she announced, seeing the little girl smile. "But lass, you have to promise me the returns tomorrow. Once you learn it all from me, you will have to take the command and help me take care of Davies Empire tomorrow. Only if you give me the word today, I will consider taking you along with me and teach you my skill, my business."
