Chapter 7 Not Her

• She looked everywhere and grew worried when she could not find the little girl.
• Hence, she called a waiter over. “Excuse me, where is the little girl who came in with me just now?”
• The waiter remembered the girl with doll-like features due to her sweet voice when the latter called out to her.
• “Don't worry, miss. She just went to wash her hands.”
• Hearing this, Gwendolyn responded with a word of thanks.
• It's good she remembers what I taught her and knows to wash her hands before every meal.
• There was a shared sink in front of the restroom.
• Juliette applied soap onto her hands and scrubbed them while humming a tune, “Scrubbing yourself before going to bed will make you prettier!”
• A tall figure came out of the gents and stood beside her, also washing his hands.
• Juliette glanced at him through the mirror and immediately widened her eyes.
• He looks like my brothers! So handsome! She looked at him so intensely that her eyes crossed.
• “Do you have children, Mr. Handsome?”
• We don't have a daddy, so if he has children but they're not with him, maybe we are his kids!
• When he heard her sweet voice, Patrick turned to look at the adorable girl.
• “No.”
• His voice was cold, and there was no expression on his face.
• Juliette let out a sigh upon hearing that. “I also don't have a daddy.”
• The corner of his lips twitched as he observed her expression.
• Patrick knew little about handling children, so he did not know how to comfort her.
• At that moment, Juliette had an idea. Why don't I introduce him to Gwen? She'll definitely like him since he's so handsome!
• She giggled while wiping her hands with a paper towel, praising herself inwardly for being so smart.
• “Can we be friends, Mr. Handsome? Give me your number, and I'll treat you to a meal someday.”
• She had learned those words from watching TV, and that men and women dated through having a meal together.
• In the show, the men are the ones who treat the women. But since Gwen has us three burdens, I'll be the one treating him instead!
• Patrick was about to leave when he heard her words. He narrowed his eyes as a faint smile appeared on his handsome face.
• Such an interesting little girl. She even knows how to treat someone to a meal.
• He took out a gold-embossed name card and handed it to her. “This is my number.”
• For some reason, when he saw the little girl, he felt a sense of familiarity and was inexplicably attracted to her.
• Juliette accepted the card and placed it in her small sling bag. Then she patted it as she muttered under her breath, “I must take care of it well.”
• Felicia immediately stood up upon seeing Patrick entering the private room, unable to take her eyes off him.
• “Hello, Mr. Lowen!”
• The only thing he had in mind when he saw the woman before him was that her sharp jawline looked a little scary.
• Meanwhile, Felicia was visibly nervous. After all, he's the head of the most prestigious family in Avenport. If I can marry him, I'll be able to do whatever I please in Avenport in the future.
• There was a tremendous amount of excitement in her heart. Blame it on my beauty that manages to attract such an exceptional man!
• “Hello, Ms. Ashton. I have a question for you. Have you ever experienced something weird, such as a dream?”
• Although she could not wrap her head around what he meant, she knew she had to grab this opportunity, given that he was handsome and the head of Lowen Group.
• “Yes. When I was little, I dreamed that my tooth had fallen off, and it came true the next day. Don't you think that's amazing?”
• After hearing her words, Patrick clasped his hands together on the table, maintaining his calm expression as he went on asking, “Have you ever received a ring from a man?”
• Felicia shook her head. “No. I've never had a boyfriend, so there's no way I've received this kind of gift.”
