There was a little boy in the middle of the road.
Not far away, a car was driving straight towards the boy in a frantic manner.
The boy seemed too shocked to move.
It seemed that the car was about to send the boy flying anytsoon.
Many people around saw it, yet no one dared to go up to save him. After all, the car was driving too fast. If they wanted to save him, they might put themselves at risk of getting hit by the car.
At this moment, a white figure ran to the middle of the road.
The speed was as fast as lightning.
It was Yesseca Cowell.
After a moment of stupefaction, Yesseca ran over without thinking further.
She could not bear to watch the boy getting knocked over.
Yesseca directly ran towards the middle of the road, then carried the boy away from there.
And it just so happened that the car sped right past Yesseca's body.
A large piece of skin was ripped from Yesseca's arm.
She carried the boy to the safe area before finally putting him down.
Yesseca patted her chest. "Thank goodness nothing happened to you." Although a large patch of skin on her arm was torn off, at least she succeeded in saving this little boy.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtIn comparison, the torn skin didn't seem like it was anything serious at all.
"Hey little boy, are you all right?" Yesseca looked at the little boy.
Just as she took a look at him, Yesseca was immediately dumbstruck.
Just now, she had been focused on trying to rescue the boy. She didn't look at him carefully, but now she found that the boy was very goodlooking.
He had a chubby little face, and a pair of dark eyes. His eyelashes were fluttering, like a pair of mini fans.
He was like a white, furry ball, making people fall for him at first sight.
Yesseca couldn't control herself and touched the little boy's face that was as smooth as an egg.
"Boy, you are really good looking." The boy's eyelashes started to tremble hard.
For a moment, his eyelashes were finally sitting still above his eyes.
He seemed as if he had finally woke up from the confusion.
The boy opened his huge eyes wide, which were clear and beautiful. "Beautiful lady." The boy's voice was soft and soothing.
When he uttered the words "beautiful lady", it made Yesseca feel extremely happy.
She stroked the boy's hair. "You are really a sweet talker. How old are you?" "I am four years old," the boy replied.
Yesseca was rather surprised by it.
The boy in front of her could speak so fluently, and she could see that he was intelligent, unlike what a four-year- old should be. She initially thought that he would at least be in the first grade. "Be careful when you cross the road next time, okay?" Yesseca reminded him.
"It's you who saved me, beautiful lady," said the boy.
Yesseca smiled awkwardly.
"I will ask my father to repay you for this," the boy added again.
Yesseca waved her hand. "It's fine." She had never thought of asking him to repay her when she saved the little boy. It was just her instincts that made her do so.
"My father is very powerful and super rich. He can give you whatever you want." The boy actually tried to tempt Yesseca with it.
Yesseca didn't know how to react upon hearing his words.
She bent down and looked at the boy. "I really don't need anything. I feel very happy that I managed to save you. I don't expect you to thankor giveanything in return. I just want you to be more careful next time." A subtle ripple flashed in the boy's dark eyes. "You don't want any money? But many people want my father's money." Yesseca let out a chuckle At that moment, a man cover.
The man was tall and huge, and he was wearing a black suit.
"Young Master, I finally found you," the man said.
The little boy took a glance at the man and then pursed his lips.
When Yesseca heard the man calling the boy "Young Master", she knew that the man was probably a bodyguard of the boy's family. Those who could afford to hire bodyguards were probably really rich.
"Master is looking for you. Cback with me, young master," the man said.
The little boy did not leave. He just looked at Yesseca eagerly. "Beautiful lady, cback to my place with me. I'll ask my father to thank you." Yesseca stood up. "I already said that there's no need for that. You should just go back." The man beside her looked at Yesseca in a suspicious manner. "Who are you?" Before Yesseca could reply, the boy spoke, "She is my savior!" The man was rendered speechless.
Yesseca felt a little embarrassed. She then waved her hand at the little boy. "That's it. Goodbye." When she took a few steps away, the boy's voice cfrom behind. "Beautiful lady, will we meet again?" Yesseca turned around. "Only if we are destined to." Even though she said so, Yesseca reckoned that they would not meet again.
The little boy was dressed very elegantly and he had bodyguards. Yesseca thought that they belonged to two different worlds.
Everyone had their own lives to live. This little boy and her weren't from the spath.
It was finally eleven o'clock, and Selina got into the cafe.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAt this time, many customers were already there.
As the customers went into the cafe, they were already there complaining. "What happened today? Why did they have to delay so long to open the place?" "Yes, it has never opened late throughout these past ten years. What on earth happened today?" The owner of the cafe just laughed and said, "Sorry, I had something to attend to today. As a compensation, everything's on the house today. You all don't have to pay." Hearing the owner's words, only then did those complaining guests smile happily.
Selina didn't have to pay for the coffee either.
She requested to pay for the coffee, but the owner refused to accept it.
After walking out of the cafe, Selina went into the car.
She was holding the coffee in her hand.
The coffee was a little hot and she could feel the warmth through her palms.
Selina turned her eyes to the outside of the car.
She suddenly thought of something.
She was busy waiting for the cafe to open, thus she forgot to give Matthew a call, and Matthew hadn't called her either.
Logically speaking, since she had been out for so long, shouldn't Matthew give her a call out of concern?
To make sure that she hadn't mistaken it, Selina purposely tookout her phone and took another look at it. However, she did not see any missed calls nor text messages. A hint of suspicion appeared in Selina's eyes.
Then, a thought flashed through her mind.
She had been with Matthew for so long, yet he had never asked her to go out to buy anything for himself before! Never once! Why did he want her to buy him a cup of coffee suddenly? At first, she didn't think much about it. But now, after thinking about it carefully, she found that something was wrong! He could've just asked his assistant to help him do so!
Moreover, she had just heard from those regular customers that the owner had never opened the cafe late for the past ten ye years. Why did the owner suddenly open the cafe late on the day when Matthew asked her to buy coffee?
Furthermore, even if the owner opened the cafe late, it wasn't m actually a big deal at all. But the owner actually asked all the customers to not pay! The owner was simply being too generous! Selina felt her brows twitching.
Perhaps, there was another possibility. The owner had opened the store late because someone had instructed him to do so, and he gave the boss a large sum of money.
sel.
That was why the boss delayed the opening, and was so generous about allowing all the customers to have anything for free! A weird feeling suddenly struck Selina.
