The Indifferent Ex-Husband Heartstrings in the Mall of Fate

Chapter 362

Sophia didn't make a peep.

Don couldn't help but shoot Brandon a glance, giving his shoulder a comforting pat.

Brandon gave him a side-eye, "You're an accomplice, you know."

It was him, after all, who had specifically dragged Sophia into this mess to back up her story, which made Brandon drop his suspicions way too quickly.

"Who knew you guys were such fun?" Don said, and couldn't help but throw a pitiful look at Sophia.

Sophia pretended not to notice, and thankfully, the elevator had reached the basement level; with a ding, the doors opened.

Sophia was the first to step out. Don and Brandon followed.

Seeing Theresa still wide-eyed with curiosity while she was appraising him, Don couldn't resist the urge to tease her. He reached out to pinch her chubby little cheeks, but before his fingers could make contact, Brandon swatted his hand away.

"Germs!"

"Small-minded!" Don muttered under his breath, and then couldn't resist glancing at Brandon's composed, handsome face, "So, what's it like having a daughter? Must be a pretty awesome feeling, huh?"

Brandon glanced at him coolly, "Yeah. Why don't you hurry up and have one?"

Don shot back, "Show-off!"

Brandon ignored him, just carrying Theresa and following Sophia into the cafeteria.

It was lunchtime, and the place was pretty crowded.

Everyone had just come down from their offices, with the newly distributed pastries still lying on their desks, and the news of 'the CEO just had a baby girl' was spreading like wildfire all over the company.
