Weston frowned and shot a glance at the child.
For some reason, the sight of this girl quickened his breathing
Nicole grimaced as soon as she saw this.
“Where did this girl come from?” she asked. “What a rude child!”
“Shut up,” Weston snapped at her as soon as he heard her, and his hawkish eyes landed hovered over
her head.
Weston‘s look gave Nicole a fright. She soon clammed up and dared to say not a single word after that.
“Unkie...” Emma softly mumbled as she got up to her feet and rubbed her eyes. “I‘m sowwy...”
Emma couldn‘t speak properly yet, but she remembered what her mother taught her–she had to always
apologize if she bumped into someone.
The little girl‘s heartful apology instantly warmed up Weston‘s expressions.
“It‘s okay,” he responded tenderly and, with a rare display of patience, kneeled down in front of the girl,
asking, “Where are your parents?”
Emma shook her head in confusion. She had no clue what the word “parents” meant.
Weston chuckled and rubbed her head before asking,” Where‘s your mommy and daddy?”
Emma understood what he meant now. She nodded and quickly answered, “In the westwoom!” Weston frowned in disapproval. What kind of parents would leave such a young girl unattended and let
her roam about the whole place on her own?
Everyone else at the table was still examining the little girl. She was certainly beautiful and was probably
around two or three years old. She was also so adorable that anyone who saw her would be tempted to
pinch those chubby cheeks of hers.
And in fact, it was exactly what Weston did next.
“Let’s go find your mommy and daddy,” he said after pinching Emma’s cheeks.
Emma blinked as she stared at Weston’s face and nodded her little head. Without thinking, she reached
out to take
Weston’s hand.
Her tiny hand felt pillowy soft to Weston’s touch. He glanced down at her, unable to fathom why he felt
so fond of this girl.
Emma then stretched out her hand and cried, “Pick me up, Unkie!”
Daisy had been frowning deeply all along. She remembered how Weston never liked children at all.
Fearing that he would be annoyed, she rushed over and asked Emma, “Why don’t you come with me so
I can take you to your mommy and daddy, hmm?”
Emma was surprised that a pretty woman suddenly showed up and talked to her. She swiftly hid behind

Weston to avoid Daisy, looking a little frightened. “It’s fine,” Weston quickly picked the girl up in his arms.
“I‘ll do it. You guys should continue eating.”
As soon as he finished speaking, he strode away.
“Mr. Ford,” Daisy dabbed her mouth with the napkin and got up to follow him. “Let me help you.”
Seeing this, Nicole pushed her chair away and rose to her feet as well, fully intending to follow them.
“I‘ll go with you too!” she insisted. “I‘m good with children!”
Daisy stopped in her tracks and turned around to glare at Nicole.
“What are you doing?” she snapped.
“If you can go with him,” Nicole argued, “then why can‘t
I?»
As the two women were busy arguing with each other, Weston had already left with the little girl in his
arms.
At that moment, a loud noise rang from upstairs.
“We‘re so sorry, Madam! We will absolutely help you find
your daughter!”
“We’re incredibly sorry, Madam! This is the waitress‘ fault! We will check the security cameras right
away!” Stella almost didn‘t hear a word that they were saying. She clasped Elias to her chest as her heart
almost burst with anxiety.
She had only left with her daughter for a few minutes to clean up her son, but just as she got back, all
she saw was an empty room without a soul in it.
Her first reaction after realizing that Emma had disappeared was to call for the waitress, but
unfortunately, she was just as clueless as Stella was when asked about Emma‘s whereabouts.
Stella could hardly describe how she felt then. It was just as numbing as if she had fallen into a tub of icy
water on a hot day.
But she had only left Emma there for a few minutes! Where could she run to in that short span of time?
She was only a tiny girl, after all...

“I don’t care for your apologies! The most important thing is to find my daughter no matter what!”
She took a deep breath. Her hands were shaking violently, but she still forced herself to keep her
composure.
What she didn’t notice was that as she was uttering those words, a tall and muscular man who was
carrying a young girl in his arms downstairs suddenly stopped in his tracks and turned his head towards
her.
