Her Precious Baby

“Ms. Sherrock, the money you paid me isn’t enough. If you want me to investigate further, I’m afraid you’ll need to pay me another one million.”

When Olivine heard that, her expression took a sharp change. “That’s highway robbery!”

“I believe that amount of money is nothing to you, Ms. Sherrock.” The scar-faced man’s voice sounded relaxed. He then took her cup of coffee from the table and drank it. “Of course, you can choose not to make the payment. When the time comes, I’ll reveal this information to Evander. I believe he’s more than happy to figure out who was the woman that had a one-night stand with him back then.”

His brazen words ignited the rage within Olivine, and she gritted her teeth in hatred. “Fine! I’ll pay you. But you’ll have to do another task for me since you’re getting paid.”

The next moment, she cautiously looked around before she leaned forward to whisper something into the scar-faced man’s ear.

On Floretta’s first day of kindergarten, Angeline purposely applied for a half-day leave from Derek and asked the driver to bring her to the location according to the address Evander sent her.

She spotted a familiar black car when she arrived at the kindergarten entrance. Meanwhile, Evander was having a conversation with the female principal.

Upon getting out of the car, Angeline saw the black car’s door open, and Floretta hopped out of it with a pink backpack.

“Angel!” Floretta jumped into Angeline’s arms. The former’s eyes were brimming with excitement.

She was dressed in a pale blue uniform and wore a pink bunny-shaped hat. Her hair was tied into a ponytail, and her overall appearance was absolutely adorable.

Angeline stroke Floretta’s cheeks gently before asking with a smile, “Floretta, today is your first day of school. Are you happy?”

“Yes, I’m very happy!” Floretta vigorously nodded and blinked as anticipation shone in her eyes.
