Chapter 139 My Evie

"I had something urgent to do therefore I left first. You, Mommy and Alastair have a good meal together. I'll visit you when I have time."

...

"Well, okay."

Leon looked as though he had seen a ghost when he saw Theodore's patience when he was on the phone.

The phone call did not last long. After Theodore hung up, Leon could not help but twitch the corners of his mouth. "Your life seems to be more exciting than I thought. Where did the kid pop up from? How old is she?" "Everleigh's daughter, Adrienne."

Leon breathed a sigh of relief. Before his breath fully subsided, he thought about it and said, "Wait, then why did her daughter call you 'daddy'?" Theodore frowned.

It was a long story that could not be explained in just a sentence or two.

"Wait a minute." Leon suddenly thought of something. "You just said that it was Aunt Madison who threatened Everleigh to leave Ocpeace City seven years ago. If she did not cheat on you, then the two children of hers are..." His gaze fell on Theodore's face and he hesitated for a long time. "They can't be yours, right?"

Theodore suddenly fell silent.

As the night fell, Adrienne put her mobile phone back into her pocket contentedly after the call ended and skipped back to the restaurant. "Mommy, I'm back."

"You were gone so long I thought you were kidnapped." Everleigh took two wet tissues and wiped her hands. "I've ordered some ice cream for you."

"Wow!" Adrienne looked at the scoop of chocolate ice cream in front of her, which was bigger than her fist, and exclaimed, "It's so big. Mommy, you're the best!"

Everleigh rubbed her head and helped her to tidy up her bangs. However, her gentle eyes became a little apologetic and she smiled reluctantly, "As long as you like it."

"Of course I like it. You and Alastair know that I like ice cream the most!" Adrienne picked up the spoon impatiently. Suddenly, she remembered something and immediately turned to wink at Everleigh. "But I love you and Alastair the most!" This little girl's mouth was sweet and smart. Because of this, many strangers had favored her since she was a child. Even Everleigh and Alastair had benefited from her presence.
