"How do you look so cute?" Marcel said as he put down the plate that had the eggs and went to Liam who was standing at the kitchen entrance uncomfortably. After he straightened his clothes a bit more and fixed his hair he looked at him with a satisfied smile.
Liam only looked at him innocently while not knowing how to respond before he touched the t-s.h.i.+rt he was wearing in his hands. In his entire life, he had never received new clothes to wear. All the clothes he had were hand me downs or donated to the charity so he felt quite complicated about having new clothes to wear.
Marcel understood what he was thinking about when he saw the expression on Liam's face. It was also his body's first time to wear new clothes but it wasn't like he had been deprived in his past life in the first place so he didn't know the feelings that Liam was currently experiencing.
"Come on, I tried making some breakfast, it's nothing big but have a taste first," Marcel said as he lifted Liam while he was standing up and sat him down on the long stool that was on the opposite side of the kitchen counter.
He then quickly went to the other side and cut the egg into bite-sized pieces so that Liam would eat it comfortably. Also because he thought he should eat it quickly since his crew would be arriving soon to pick him up soon.
Liam looked at the eggs on the plate before looking up at Marcel as if asking him since when could you cook?
"Have a taste first. It's the first thing I've ever made in my life" Marcel said as he used the fork to pick up some of the eggs that were on the plate and gave the fork to Liam. Liam looked at the eggs skeptically before smelling them.
After he ensured that there was no cause for suspicion, he opened his little mouth and took a bite. Marcel looked at Liam with eyes that were filled with antic.i.p.ation which just ended up burdening Liam more than was necessary.
"How is it?" Marcel asked.
"It's good," Liam said as he took another bite and Marcel released a relieved breath. He hadn't even been aware that he had been holding his breath all this time.
"How does it taste?" Marcel asked and Liam gave him a strange look. How should he describe the taste of eggs? They tasted like eggs, is it okay to say this?
"Have you not tasted them?" Liam asked instead and Marcel shook his head to say no. Liam then took some with his fork and stretched his hand over to Marcel and Marcel took a bite of the eggs.
He hadn't done anything special with eggs as he had just put salt and pepper on them so they just tasted like eggs at the end of the day.
"How is it?" Liam asked, curious about how he was going to answer him.
"It tastes like eggs" Marcel said with a chuckle as he patted Liam's head and went to pour him a gla.s.s of milk. After another ten minutes, Marcel received a call from Julia.
"h.e.l.lo?" Marcel said after he picked up the phone while prompting Liam to quickly finish his milk.
"We're downstairs, hurry up" Julia said as they were already behind schedule. She glared at the a.s.sistant that had caused them to turn back halfway there because she had forgotten her purse. She had never met someone so efficient and clumsy at the same time.
"Okay, we'll also have to go to the main office because Mr. Matteo asked to see me before going to work" Marcel said as he checked his wallet to make sure everything is in it before taking the empty plate and gla.s.s and put it in the sink.
"Okay, just hurry up, the staff on-site are waiting for you" Julia said before she hung up.
"There should not be a repeat of this, am I understood?" Julia said to Marie who was her a.s.sistant. Marie resisted the urge to roll her eyes and nodded instead.
It wasn't like she had forgotten her things on purpose and it wasn't like she could guarantee that it would not happen in the future. It was just that after their previous model her motivation to work had just been at an all-time low since she had been such a diva for no reason. Just remembering that woman made her teeth hurt.

Not five minutes pa.s.sed before Lucas walked out of the apartment building while holding Liam's hand. The moment Julia noticed him she quickly told the road manager to open the car door.
"Hi Julia," Marcel said as he lifted Liam into the van.
"Hi" Julia answered as she guided Liam to sit on the seat behind her that was next to Marie.
"Buckle him up," Julia said to the stunned Marie who quickly put the seatbelt on Liam. Marcel got in the van as well and sat down on the seat right next to the door.
"This is Marie, she is my a.s.sistant, whenever you can't find me don't hesitate to look for her," Julia said as she gestured for Marie who was sitting behind her.
"Nice to meet you," Marcel said and smiled at her.
"Ahem, it's my pleasure. Please don't hesitate to come to me whenever there is anything I can help with" Marie said to show that she really would not find it an inconvenience if he did. Marcel chuckled good-naturedly and nodded.
"I definitely will," Marcel said and left it at that.
"This is Mark, your road manager. There's probably going to be times when we both aren't around so he will be the one constant that is always around" Julia said as she introduced Mark who was busy driving.
"Nice to meet you Mark," Marcel said with a pleasant smile and Mark looked at him through the rearview mirror before nodding in acknowledgement of his greeting.
"Well, this is the little brother I had told you about. His name is Liam. Liam, this is Julia, you'll probably be seeing her quite often in the future" Marcel said as he introduced the two of them.
Julia who did not have any experience with children managed to squeeze out a half-decent smile and wave at Liam.
Liam, on the other hand, thought that she was quite interesting, especially with her stiff expression so he did not hold back on his smile.
Julia cleared her throat when she saw Liam's smile and did not know what to do with herself. 'Should I talk to Damien about managing child models' she suddenly felt like her whole life is a lie.
Even though she doesn't have much interest in children, she didn't think she would be able to resist a child-like Liam, she wondered how he still wasn't adopted not knowing that George had deliberately been excluding them whenever parents came to search for children they wanted to adopt.
