Chapter 1165 Weston rubbed the girl‘s head, trying very hard to keep his trembling hands under control as he
gently asked her, “What is your full name?”
Emma sucked on her thumb and rolled her eyes as she thought about the question. “I‘m Emma...” she replied.
Stella had always called her Emma and her brother Elias at home. Their full names were almost never brought up,
so she had forgotten what it was. All she knew was that she was Emma.
Weston chuckled at her response and then asked her,” How old are you this year?”
Stella immediately gave Emma a look to warn her. Emma, noticing this, carefully replied with a gulp, “I‘m turning
two this year...”
Before they came to Ahn City, Stella had repeatedly reminded her children that while they were in this country, it
was imperative they said they were a year younger than their actual age if anybody asked them how old they were.
The two children had no idea why their mother would want them to do such a strange thing, but they still listened to
her and did as they were told.
Emma was a little relieved that she remembered her mother‘s instructions in time just now. Otherwise , she would
have committed mistake after mistake today, which would have meant that she was no longer a good girl! Stella

shifted his icy gaze towards her.
She turned away, ignoring his questioning looks, and merely asked him again impatiently, “When are you going to
give my daughter back to me?”
Everyone else was still in total shock.
When Weston slowly calmed down, the blood that had been boiling in his veins because of Stella gradually
simmered down because of her too. Feeling a little hot under his collar, he unbuttoned the top of his shirt and
gazed deeply at the woman in front of him.
“How are you going to prove that she really is your daughter?” he asked her.
“But she IS my daughter!” Stella‘s eyes widened, appalled. “Why would I need to prove it? Didn‘t you hear her
calling me mommy?”
“But you heard what she said. She‘s not even two years old.”
With a shadow of a smile on his face, he turned to Stella and nonchalantly added, “She‘s only a baby. What would
she know? She even called me Daddy just now, so the fact that she called you Mommy doesn‘t really prove
anything, does it?”

Hmm?
Emma looked up at the man and stared at him in confusion.
When did she ever call him Daddy? She clearly called him Unkie just now...
Stella took a deep breath, barely able to keep herself from exploding in anger in front of him. But she had not seen
him for three years. Now that they bumped into each other again, she had no desire to be too enmeshed with him
again.
“Just give her back to me now,” she begged, “and we‘ll talk about the rest later.... She‘s still very young, so she‘d
get scared if she stays too long with a stranger.” “But I don‘t think she‘s afraid at all,” argued Weston. He turned to
the little girl in his arms with a smile and asked her, “Are you scared of me, hmm?”
Emma looked at him, then turned to Stella. She could that she should be afraid of this man, from the way Stella was
eyeballing her.
But didn‘t Mommy tell her that good girls never lied? So

Emma struggled with the dilemma for a while before she made up her mind. With her face all scrunched up, she
replied, “I‘m not scared of you. I like you very much...”
In the end, Emma decided that she would be an honest girl.
As she spoke, she clasped her hands on the nape of Weston‘s neck. The faint scent of milk wafted through the air
and tickled his nose. His eyes softened significantly as he looked at her. “Now that‘s a good girl,” he told Emma in a
polite tone.
“Thanks!” Emma responded, giggling happily. She then turned to her mother and saw the look in Stella‘s eyes. She
instantly became more cautious and reserved before telling Weston in a low voice, ‘‘But I still like Mommy the most,
so if Mommy wants me to be scared of you, I‘ll be scared of you…”
Stella took a deep breath, suddenly feeling a headache coming on.
How could her own daughter betray her like that?
But in that instant, the initially strained and serious atmosphere suddenly relaxed. After hearing what Emma said,
Weston chuckled and lovingly stroked her head.
Stella stared coldly at the interaction between Weston and Emma.
She knew that he was only treating Emma so nicely because he thought that the girl was his daughter.
