Chapter 13

"Daddy, daddy!" Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive © material.

Sheryl suddenly had a thought, so she turned around and quickly darted toward Shane, who was waiting on the sofa.

Before Shane could look up from the magazine in his hands, Sheryl threw herself into his arms and wrapped her arms around his neck.

At that moment, all the people present were shocked, especially Yuliana, whose jaw dropped.

Looking at the child in his arms, Shane didn't feel repelled at all.

On the contrary, there was an imperceptible smile on his lips. He had overheard what had happened just now.

He thought that the child would throw a tantrum and make a scene. But unexpectedly, rather than bursting into tears, she had set her eyes on him.

"Daddy, I'll tell mommy that you and that mean auntie are out here shopping."

Seeing that this unfamiliar man didn't reject her, Sheryl started putting on an act. She had learned this from the TV shows she had watched.

"Where is your mommy now?" Shane looked at the delicate little girl in front of him. He couldn't help but adore her.

Her big bright eyes had softened his stone cold-heart.

"It's mommy's birthday today, but she has to work. I just want to buy her a birthday present," Sheryl pouted her lips and spoke her mind in a childish voice.

Although Sheryl was only four years old, her emotional intelligence was very high. She also knew how to observe others' expressions and react accordingly.

She knew that this handsome man would get her that dress.

Sheryl's adorable expression captured Shane's heart. He said to the attendant without a second thought, "Wrap it up for the girl."

"Shane..." Yuliana was fuming internally, but she did not dare to object. She could only watch Sheryl take the dress into her arms.

"Thank you, sir. However, I should pay for it myself."

Since she had achieved her goal, Sheryl got off Shane's lap carefully and thanked him solemnly.

Hearing this, everyone was once again shocked.

This dress was a limited edition product. There was only one in the entire River City!

Nevertheless, Sheryl didn't know that. She took out a Centurion Card from her pocket and handed it to the attendant.

Seeing the Centurion Card, Yuliana's face instantly darkened.

The brat actually had a Centurion Card!

At this time, Shane's eyes narrowed, and he saw Sheryl in a new light.

He couldn't help but feel a sense of familiarity, but he didn't know why he felt that way.

Had he met this child before?

Or that she was the child of one of his business partners?

"What's your name?" Shane asked softly.

"My name is Sheryl." It was rare for Sheryl to meet a kind-hearted and handsome man, so she did not hide her name.

"What are you buying for your mommy next?" Seeing Sheryl so obedient and lovely, Shane ruffled her hair.

"A cake. I still need to buy mommy a cake!" Sheryl said excitedly.

Although they had just met, Sheryl was very fond of this handsome stranger for no reason.

"All right."

Under the watchful eyes of the public, Shane held Sheryl's hand and they went to the cake shop downstairs.

Yuliana, who was left aside, trembled with rage. Her exquisite face contorted by a grimace.

"This god d*mn brat," she cursed inwardly and went after them.
