Chapter 7 Not Her
She looked everywhere and grew worried when she could not find the little girl.
Hence, she called a waiter over. “Excuse me, where is the little girl who came in with me just now?”
The waiter remembered the girl with doll-like features due to her sweet voice when the latter called out to her.
“Don’t worry, miss. She just went to wash her hands.”
Hearing this, Elizabeth responded with a word of thanks.
It’s good she remembers what I taught her and knows to wash her hands before every meal.
There was a shared sink in front of the restroom.
Abby applied soap onto her hands and scrubbed them while humming a tune, “Scrubbing yourself before going to bed will make you prettier!”
A tall figure came out of the gents and stood beside her, also washing his hands.
Abby glanced at him through the mirror and immediately widened her eyes.
He looks like my brothers! So handsome! She looked at him so intensely that her eyes crossed.
“Do you have children, Mr. Handsome?”
We don’t have a daddy, so if he has children but they’re not with him, maybe we are his kids!
When he heard her sweet voice, Matthew turned to look at the adorable girl.
“No.”
His voice was cold, and there was no expression on his face.
Abby let out a sigh upon hearing that. “I also don’t have a daddy.”
The corner of his lips twitched as he observed her expression.
Matthew knew little about handling children, so he did not know how to comfort her.
At that moment, Abby had an idea. Why don’t I introduce him to Lizzy? She’ll definitely like him since he’s so handsome!
She giggled while wiping her hands with a paper towel, praising herself inwardly for being so smart.
“Can we be friends, Mr. Handsome? Give me your number, and I’ll treat you to a meal someday.”
She had learned those words from watching TV, and that men and women dated through having a meal together.
In the show, the men are the ones who treat the women. But since Lizzy has us three burdens, I’ll be the one treating him instead! © 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.
Matthew was about to leave when he heard her words. He narrowed his eyes as a faint smile appeared on his handsome face.
Such an interesting little girl. She even knows how to treat someone to a meal.
He took out a gold-embossed name card and handed it to her. “This is my number.”
For some reason, when he saw the little girl, he felt a sense of familiarity and was inexplicably attracted to her.
Abby accepted the card and placed it in her small sling bag. Then she patted it as she muttered under her breath, “I must take care of it well.”
Tiana immediately stood up upon seeing Matthew entering the private room, unable to take her eyes off him.
“Hello, Mr. Hilton!”
The only thing he had in mind when he saw the woman before him was that her sharp jawline looked a little scary.
Meanwhile, Tiana was visibly nervous. After all, he’s the head of the most prestigious family in Mistwood. If I can marry him, I’ll be able to do whatever I please in Mistwood in the future.
There was a tremendous amount of excitement in her heart. Blame it on my beauty that manages to attract such an exceptional man!
“Hello, Ms. Wade. I have a question for you. Have you ever experienced something weird, such as a dream?”
Although she could not wrap her head around what he meant, she knew she had to grab this opportunity, given that he was handsome and the head of Hilton Group.
“Yes. When I was little, I dreamed that my tooth had fallen off, and it came true the next day. Don’t you think that’s amazing?”
After hearing her words, Matthew clasped his hands together on the table, maintaining his calm expression as he went on asking, “Have you ever received a ring from a man?”
Tiana shook her head. “No. I’ve never had a boyfriend, so there’s no way I’ve received this kind of gift.”
