The Billionaire’s Secret Quartet by Thalassa -
Chapter 220
Chapter 220
Elowen’s ball rolled onto the road, and she dashed out to retrieve it.
Suddenly, a car sped toward her, almost hitting her.
She picked up her ball stood still, and stared at the black car that had stopped not too far away.
Her tiny, chubby, and round figure held the basketball, which almost looked bigger than her.
With her clear, innocent, and beautiful big eyes reflecting fear, she stared at the man getting out of the car.
David scanned the area and realized she was alone. He walked over to Elowen, squatted down to her level, checked her out to ensure she was not hurt, and noticed the scared expression on her pretty little face.
David softly said, “Kiddo, you’re too young to be playing by the road alone. Where are your parents?”
The girl’s eyes were clear, innocent, and beautiful. She was incredibly cute, like a chubby doll.
It would be heartbreaking and regrettable if such a beautiful and adorable child got into an accident.
How careless of the parents to let their child play alone by the road! If something unlucky happened to her, they would surely regret it.
Elowen’s beautiful big eyes stared straight at him, her childish voice saying, “My mom’s at work, and my grandma went out. I wanted to find my grandma, but I don’t know where she is.”
Elowen was playing ball in the neighborhood when she felt hungry and wanted some milk.
Sut Evelyn told her before leaving that she had to deal with the boss and asked her to listen to the neighbor.
She wanted milk but was too shy to tell the neighbor, so she went to look for her grandma.
She had crossed two roads but still couldn’t find her grandma.
“Your grandma left you home alone?” David asked.
The girl’s innocent and adorable expression melted hearts. Her grandma was so careless as to leave her alone at home. Elowen was about to say she had a brother and a sister when the neighbor came rushing over and said, “Elowen, so you’re here.”
Evelyn’s neighbor was a tall, thin, middle–aged woman with a straightforward personality. She was a friend of Evelyn’s and had a unique relationship with her, not quite close, but not distant either.
Evelyn asked her to look after the children, and she agreed. But she wasn’t very careful since they weren’t her grandchildren, so she didn’t notice when the children went out to play.
Afraid of losing the children and not being able to bear the responsibility, she hurried out to find them.
“You naughty girl, you scared me to death, you know?” The neighbor scooped Elowen into her arms.
David stood up, his expression serious, and said, “You need to keep a close eye on your own kid. If she gets hit on the road next time, it’ll be your loss.”
The neighbor quickly apologized,saying, “Yes, yes, I’m sorry for the trouble.”
Seeing that the woman was genuinely sorry, David didn’t say anything more, glanced at the little girl one more time, and returned to his car.
“Bye, sir.” Elowen’s voice was as sweet as cotton candy.
David turned around, smiled, and said, “Goodbye.”
He then got into the car and drove off.
Lysander had been sitting in the car the whole time, not getting out. Because he hadn’t slept well the night before, he was feeling tired and kept his eyes closed. It wasn’t until David started the car that he slowly opened his eyes.
He saw a woman holding a little girl who had two braids and was extremely cute, like a beautiful doll.
Her adorable image left a deep impression in his mind.
Lysander started to recall where he had seen this little girl before.
Turned out he’d seen her on the road when he was in Hollowbrook.
Back then, she said he was handsome and wanted him to be her mom’s boyfriend.
He didn’t expect to run into her here again.
