Chapter 1303:
Even by mid-morning, the daylight hadn’t broken through. Soon enough, a soft drizzle began to fall and
continued steadily throughout the day.
At the Flynn Mansion, warm light filled the room, accompanied by the quiet patter of rain against the windows. In
the living room, Locke sat upright, cheeks puffed out with focus as he recited the day’s lesson in his gentle,
melodic voice.
“Excellent job,” Elissa praised, her smile full of warmth as she gave his round cheek a gentle pat. “You're really
sharp today. That's everything for your lesson.”
She glanced at the clock. They had finished about twenty minutes earlier than usual.
There was still tbefore she needed to leave.
“So, what would you like to do now?” she asked.
Locke tilted his head thoughtfully. “Can we play hide and seek?”
“Hide and seek?” Elissa considered it briefly, then nodded. “Alright.” Since Locke was still young, Ernest had
clearly instructed that he wasn’t to be overburdened. When his homework was all done and there was still free

“I've hidden already!” Locke suddenly called out. “Cfindnow!”
“Okay.”
With her eyes still covered, Elissa stood and began to feel her way around the room, careful with every step.
She whispered softly as she moved, “Where could Locke be hiding?
This isn’t him... and this isn't either...”
“Haha...” A burst of laughter bubbled up from somewhere nearby. “I'm here!”
“Where?”
Their playful voices echoed through the large, open room, filling it with cheerful laughter.
At this time, the house was unusually quiet.
