“An enemy,” Jacob replied simply, as he was still in front of a group of children.
Right next to them, Dana, who was engrossed in the game, said in a slightly cringey tone, “No matter how strong the enemy is, they will ultimately lose to me, the God of games!”
Jerry also nodded solemnly upon hearing that. “Precisely what I think as well.”
Jacob heaved another long sigh before holding his daughters in his arms. “Let’s go for lunch Heidi, and stay away from these two fellows.”
“Yay! Lunch!” Heidi clapped. “I would like a huge chicken drumstick! And a dog burger!”
A dog burger?
Seeing how adorable she looked when she got excited, Jacob was torn between nodding and shaking his head as he was not sure whether to laugh or to be stern. “You can have your drumstick, but I strictly forbid you to have a dog burger.”
“Boss, wait for me. I’m also getting hungry now.” With that, Jerry exited his game and pulled on Dana’s collar as they left together with Jacob.
Two minutes later, a young woman dressed in a red dress, with a white sun hat on her head appeared at the entrance of the game arcade.
While she was looking into the distance, there was no vitality on her face. Her eyes weren’t wide, yet her gaze was dark and flickering. She muttered to herself with her slightly lopsided lips.They were the ones who killed the useless Rose, and also Inferno?
In a restaurant, Heidi was enjoying her meal with one hand holding the chicken drumstick in one hand and a dog-shaped hamburger in the other. Beads of sweat were formed on her forehead, while her face
flushed pink. Jacob smiled when he looked at her, then he quickly passed a glass of fresh fruit juice to her.
Jerry could not stop himself from arching his eyebrows when he saw how much Jacob doted on his daughter. To be honest, I never thought I would see this side of Jacob. If I secretly take a picture now and send it to Black right now, would that guy lose faith completely and attack me?
Thinking that such a situation was highly feasible, he immediately ditched that idea of his.
After throwing a sideway glance at Dana, who was still on her phone while she was eating a hamburger, Jerry turned his body sideways to whisper to Jacob, “Boss, I’ve already confirmed that she’s here to spy on you.”
“Do I look like an idiot to you?” Jacob merely shot him an indifferent glance.
Jerry immediately said in an ingratiating tone, “You’re so smart, Boss–”
“After lunch, you just bring her around. Never interrupt my time with my daughter.” Looking at Heidi sitting across him, he only moved his lips very slightly to pass the message to Jerry by cutting the latter off.
“Alright. I’ll follow everything you say, Boss.” With that, Jerry smiled at him obsequiously.
When lunch was over, the four of them split into two groups. In the remaining time, Jacob brought Heidi around to all the attractions of Dixy Land. Content © NôvelDrama.Org 2024.
Time flew fast unknowingly. Soon, afternoon had arrived. Jacob received a message from his university course mate, Geoffrey Atkinson, who was also his roommate. It was a reminder for him to reach Grand Imperial Hotel at half past six in the evening. The agenda was to have dinner first before going for a karaoke.
‘We are going to party until the sun goes down. See you there!’
Going to a reunion party with his old course mates was not as precious as spending time with his daughter. If he had no urge to see his best friend, David Wilson again, he would never attend such parties.
As soon as he turned around, the party disappeared from his thoughts, and he brought his daughter to a fairy-tale cottage.
