Chapter 51 Not as Good as You

Claire was speechless.

Julia continued crying. "I hadn't even finished my words before he started glaring at me like he wanted to eat me. I've been hiding from him for the last two days. I don't even dare look at him."

Claire has been wondering why Julia was suddenly acting so timid and well-behaved while she was used to calling Sean "Sir" and pestered him. Moreover, Julia did not even stop by for breakfast when invited At present, Claire understood why.

"It'll be fine." Claire grabbed Julia by the arm to tug her toward the door. "He even didn't get angry when I told him that the father died, so go on."

Forcefully shoved out the door, Julia stood in the middle of the corridor, at a loss for what to do.

Should she knock on the door? sᴇaʀᴄh thᴇ (ꜰind)ɴʘvel.nᴇt website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

No, she could not. She did not dare.

Should she just stand at the door?

No. Someone else might think she was being a bodyguard instead.

What should she do?

Frustrated, she paced back and forth in the corridor. Suddenly, the elevator dinged. Julia whirled around in surprise, and found the elevator doors opening before her eyes to reveal Sean's cold face staring back at her.

"S-Sir, Uh..."

She immediately darted back to her apartment door with a whoosh as though she had just seen a ghost However, when she arrived at the door, she was reminded of the task Claire had assigned to her. She had no choice but to screech to a stop. Still, she did not dare even look back as she stood there with her back to Sean while her legs trembled uncontrollably.

"S-Sir, Claire said you're invited over for dinner tonight. She'll cook by herself.”

Without waiting for Sean's response, she swiftly opened the door and ran into the apartment,

Sean frowned. Why did it feel like Julia was more afraid of him than ghosts now?

Well... Claire would be cooking dinner tonight...

His lips twitched upward in a smirk as he cheerfully walked into Claire's apartment with a hand in his pocket. He did not even bother to head back to his place first.

"Sir...

The moment Belle spotted Sean walking through the door, she hurriedly abandoned the Devil's needle puzzle she had been working on and skipped over to him. When she got close to him, she immediately leaped up to hug him around the waist while her legs clamped onto his thigh. She looked just like a koala bear while hanging off him.

"I've missed you so much, sir."

Jon disdainfully rolled his eyes at Belle's behavior. This was not the behavior of someone who missed the other person. It was almost bedtime. She missed the bed in Sean's apartment.

Sean looked down at Belle, who was staring up at him with dimpled cheeks. She looked so cute that his heart immediately melted into goo. His broad palms wrapped around her waist as he lifted her up to carry her in his arms.

There was an extremely gentle glow in his deep, dark eyes. He smiled as he asked, "Miss me so much?"

Belle's rosy lips were pursed in a smile as she leaned over to kiss him on the cheek. "So much!"

"Heh."

That immediately brightened Sean's mood. With Belle in his arms, he walked over to the rug and raised an eyebrow at the toys on the floor.

All the toys were puzzles that were so hard that most adults would not be able to solve them, let alone children. Were these two kids really playing with such ment*lly challenging toys at young ages?

With Belle still in his arms, he sat down and casually picked up the disentanglement puzzle she was playing with. With a few deft twists of his slender fingers, he soon solved the puzzle.

Julia was dumbfounded, feeling as if this entire apartment was filled with monsters!

What's so impressive about that?"

Jon scornfully snorted. “These are for babies. I'm not even playing with them anymore. It's just

something to kill the time with."

"Oh?" Sean put the puzzle down on the rug and asked, intrigued, "What do you want to play with?"

For a moment, Jon solemnly considered his answer with a chubby fist tucked under his chin. Then, he glanced at Sean out of the corner of his eye. "A game of shudan?"

Shudan was an alternative name that only enthusiasts and professionals of the game knew. Naturally.

that meant Sean may not know what Jon was talking about. Nevertheless, Sean chuckled and nodded. "Very well. Your mom will be cooking for a while, so we can play one round."

Jon gleefully stood up and grabbed the Go board from Claire's room along with two boxes of Go pieces

Thus, their tall and short figures were soon sat by the coffee table.

Belle was exceptionally well-behaved throughout the game. As she sat on Sean's lap with her arms around his neck, she did not fuss or make a single noise as she stared at the board with her deep brown eyes.

As Julia watched from the side, she suddenly found the entire scene a rather heartwarming sight to behold.

She had seen many men hanging around Claire. No matter how great they were to the children, they were never able to completely integrate themselves into the children's activities like Sean had.

The serious glint in his eyes as he looked down at the board showed an absolute lack of dismissive attitude toward Jon just because he was a child. The way Sean held Belle was also so gentle that it was as if he was her father.

"Claire, I think Mr. Vanderbilt really likes Belle and Jon."

Claire was busy with the beef. Everything else was all chopped up and ready to be simply blanched of heated up once the beef was done.

When Claire heard what Julia said, she walked over to the doorway and looked out into the living room. The sight of Sean with an arm around Belle caused her lips to twitch upward in an unwitting

She did not recall a single moment when Robert had hugged her. All her life, she craved the warmth and love of a father. However She couldn't

Hence, Sean currently looked the exact picture of what she had yearned for in her youth-a father.

Uncontrollable tears welled up in her eyes, causing her to quickly turn around back to the stove. She widened her eyes in an attempt to forcefully suppress the tears that were on the brink of rolling

down her cheeks.

Julia was standing behind Claire, and even though she could not fully understand what Claire felt. she knew that no matter how nice Sean was to Claire, nothing could touch her as much as the way he played with the children.

An hour later, dinner was served.

Jon stared at the board with a furrow on his brows. He had been backed into a corner with no way out.

While he was not happy with the result, he still placed the rest of his stones on the board. "Ive

lost."

Sean stared at Jon for a moment before finally letting out a low chuckle.

The brat was a good player.

Despite his young age. Jon did not cry or throw a tantrum just because he lost. He was so open-minded

that he was acting just like a Go master.

"You've done very well to play against me even though you're just a kid. The men working with me

can't even last as long as you did."

"Hmph!" Jon crossed his arms and shot to his feet in irritation. "You don't have to pacify me. If I'm

not as good as you, just say it. Don't celebrate just yet. I'll win next time!"

"Stop arguing. Come on. It's time to eat."

When Claire called out, Sean and the children promptly stood up and headed to the bathroom to was! their hands before sitting down at the dinner table.

Afraid that Sean might feel awkward, Claire first served him. "Sir, make yourself at home"
