Chapter 424

A Small Gift

Nicole tousled Lil Michael’s hair. She adored this boy, so she would never refuse him.

“Okay!” Eric’s eyes darkened. His voice turned cold. “Does Clayton Sloan even know that you sneaked
out on your own?” Lil Michael shrank in Nicole’s arms. He felt guilty.



This Mean Mister! He’s sick but still so annoying! Eric gloatingly took out his phone and called Clayton.
“Your son sneaked out and is here with me and Nicole.” What Eric implied was for Clayton to hurry over
and take his annoying son away.

Eric deliberately put the call on speakerphone so that Lil Michael could hear Clayton’s voice. Clayton’s
voice was indifferent and cold on the phone. “Is that so? Then please take good care of him for me. I’m
in a meeting, talk later.” “Beep –” The call was hung up.



The three people froze. Lil Michael came back to his senses and was so happy that he hugged Nicole
tightly, refusing to let go. “Great! I can be with my pretty lady now!” Eric’s face turned red with anger.
Looking at his black phone screen, he felt a little short of breath.



‘I finally got the chance to date Nicole, but now I have to babysit for Clayton Sloan?! Ugh! The four of
them, including Luca, headed to the restaurant. Toto had made reservations early on.

The atmosphere was very elegant with dim, amorous lighting, which was best to cultivate romantic
feelings. He even came up with conversational topics for Eric.





They should reminisce about the past and look forward to the future.

They booked out the entire floor so that there were no other guests around. The smooth symphony and
dreamy, starry surroundings made them feel like they were in space. It was romantic and beautiful.

If Lil Michael was not around, everything would have been better. Luca was sitting at a table not far
away. Lil Michael held Nicole’s hand and sat in the middle of the two adults.

He looked at the flowers and candles on the table and felt a little discouraged. Eric reached out and
handed over a bouquet of blue lilies flown in from Holland. It was incredibly hard to find.

His eyes were gentle as he tried hard to ignore their third wheel, Michael. His voice was magnetic and
low. “This is for you.” Mean Mister actually prepared a gift?!’ Before Nicole could take it, Lil Michael stood
up with a grunt.

“Pretty Lady only likes big white appreciate the thought, Mr. Ferguson. Eric put away the flowers and
glared at Lil Michael. He was getting more annoyed with this kid by the minute. Lil Michael’s eyes curved
into tiny arcs as he smiled happily.

He fumbled around his pocket. “Pretty Lady, I came out in a hurry and didn’t get to buy you flowers, but I
grabbed a handful of small sparkly stones for you from the safe.”

With that, he stretched out his chubby little hand and put the said sparkly stones on the table in front of
Nicole. Nicole was dumbfounded for a moment. Lil Michael actually brought a handful of diamonds.

They were all uncut big diamonds that were clearly very expensive! Even in the dim light, the diamond
glimmered shockingly brightly as it refracted the surrounding starlight. V It had a faint glow.



Lil Michael rubbed his hands excitedly and beamed at his pretty lady. Lil Michael rubbed is hands
excitedly and beamed at his pretty lady. “I have a lot more! Do you like it? I think all girls will like shiny
things…”
