Chapter 19: Chapter 18: I Can Do It, Too

"You... Why are you laughing!" Elliana Lyle was both angry and flustered, her face turning bright red.

She had never seen Norman Bennett smile before, that slight smile was like the sun in winter, shining down briefly, disappearing in a flash.

Norman, with his cool and indifferent demeanor, looked so handsome when he smiled, yet his smile almost answered her question.

Thinking that Norman gave her... Elliana suddenly wanted to freeze on the spot.

"Let’s eat first, after we’re full, I’ll tell you." Norman’s tone was calm, devoid of any emotion, speaking lightly.

What else could she do? She could only bow her head and eat!

Norman’s deep gaze turned gentle, casually serving the little girl food, while her earlobes turned crimson, her face showing a touch of anger.

Beside him lay a long-legged beauty, alluring and captivating.
