Chapter 359
Emily pointed to the other side.
There, at another dining table, was a family of three. The atmosphere was very cozy, they were having a meal.
No wonder Emily was envious.
Observing Ashley's pale countenance, Stephanie felt compelled to offer solace. "Teacher, it's actually a positive development that Emily is starting to ask such questions. It signifies her growing desires and the emergence of her thought processes, akin to that of a typical child," Stephanie reassured, aiming to alleviate Ashley's concerns.
Ashley gave a bitter smile, "Yes, it's a good thing."
Unfortunately, Emily didn't have a dad and couldn't have one.
What they didn't expect was that the dad Emily was talking about actually showed up.
At the restaurant entrance, Sebastian just walked in and bumped into an acquaintance.
Jeffrey Perez also looked at him with some surprise, "Yo. President Ingram, what a rare chance to see you here."
Sebastian gave him a casual glance, "Very rare."
He happened to be in the same restaurant with Ashley.
Jeffrey looked like he had just finished eating and was about to leave. They probably wouldn't meet.
Jeffrey raised an eyebrow, "Your little fiancée, I've met her. She's quite cute and she even toasted me. Did she tell you about this?"
No.
The little girl had been keeping things from him again.
Sebastian said indifferently, "Is it important?"
"Of course it's important. After all, your future wife was toasting other men. Don't you care at all?"
"In the past, Ashley toasted a lot of people, did you care?"
Jeffrey's pupils shrank slightly at the mention of Ashley's name, his eyes were filled with coldness.
"Sebastian I don't believe that once your little fiancée becomes famous, you'll marry her and people won't laugh at you, laugh at the Ingram family, and you can withstand the pressure from your family,
If you can withstand all that, then I, Jeffrey Perez, salute you!"
"I don't need Mr. Perez's admiration! I, Sebastian, do whatever I want and don't care about other people's opinions. My little girl likes acting, so I let her play. Whether she becomes famous or not is up to her,
No one can stop me from marrying her."
"Heh. Everyone can talk big, Sebastian, you just need to know. What I can't do, you can't do either."
"Well. Mr. Perez, just wait and see."
Jeffrey Perez raised an eyebrow, didn't say anything, but seemed to have seen something, his eyes were taken aback.
"Hey, Silver Fox, why are you standing here instead of going inside?"
Stephanie, holding Emily, suddenly appeared at the entrance.
Sebastian's gaze involuntarily fell on the little girl's face, which was as pretty as a doll's.
Then, his gaze fell on Jeffrey.
Unless Jeffrey was blind, he should be able to recognize her.
Stephanie's face drained of color as she caught sight of Jeffrey. Instinctively, she took a step forward, drawing Emily protectively behind her, shielding her from his presence. Meanwhile, as Jeffrey cast his gaze upon the young girl, an indescribable emotion welled up within his heart. There was something about her face, her
eyes... a profound familiarity that
stirred his soul.
He almost instinctively asked, "Whose kid is this?"
Stephanie laughed, "Wow, Mr. Perez, you're also eating here today? What a coincidence. Silver Fox, do you guys know each other?" Sebastian replied indifferently, "Yes."
"Silver Fox, I'm taking Emily to play over there."
Sebastian followed her gaze and saw a small playground at the entrance of the restaurant, where many children were playing.Property belongs to Nôvel(D)r/ama.Org.
He nodded and asked, "Which table are you sitting at?"
"Table 108. It's quieter over there, fewer people, and it's by the window."
