The Indifferent Ex-Husband Heartstrings in the Mall of Fate

Chapter 361

Theresa also spotted Sophia in the crowd and was pleasantly surprised, calling out crisply, "Mommy."

The onlookers exploded into chatter once again, instinctively following Theresa's gaze to look back at Sophia, unsure if it was really her since there were other female colleagues by her side.

Don couldn't help but turn to look at Sophia as well. Although he had somewhat guessed it, when he actually saw the little girl crisply calling out "Mommy", he felt like the shock hit him pretty hard.

One was his buddy of over twenty years, the other a subordinate who'd been by his side for over a year. First, he had to wrap his head around these seemingly unrelated individuals becoming a divorced couple - that was tough enough to swallow. And now, two people who looked no different from single pringles suddenly pulled a nearly 2-year-old daughter out of thin air - he felt like he needed an oxygen tank.

The shock wasn't small by any means.

It was like watching everyone around you flying solo, all on the same starting line, with no rush to tie the knot or have kids. Then one day, your best bro or friend popped up with a 2-year-old tot outta nowhere. They were not only not single, but their kid was already a pro at fetching soy sauce! That sinking feeling of being left behind just surged up instantly.

Sophia caught the look of astonishment in Don's eyes and also remembered the last time he had arranged for her to meet Brandon. She felt a bit uncomfortable, tugged at her lips, and seeing Theresa still gazing at her expectantly, she had no choice but to walk towards Theresa and Brandon amidst the shocked and puzzled stares of the crowd.

Theresa was still in Brandon's arms, leaning happily towards Sophia as she approached, sweetly calling her "Mommy" once again.

"I'm here," Sophia responded softly, stretching out her hand, and Theresa immediately climbed into her embrace.

The crowd buzzed again.

Don found some comfort in the fact that others shared his shock, not feeling so alone.

Brandon, unfazed by the astonished looks, turned to Sophia and softly asked, "Why didn't you rest a bit more?"
