Chapter 1488
Tail was not used to the scene that had just happened.
Joanne was holding Tail in her arms, and the latter leaned on her lap, looking very obedient.
As they were about to get into the car, they heard Edwin's cold voice.
"Wait."
Tail lifted her head from Joanne's arms and saw Edwin. Her pupils shrank, and she exclaimed, "Mommy, he's the
child trafficker..."
Edwin's handsome face, which had almost softened under his great efforts, immediately sank.
He glanced at Joanne and then turned to Tail with a gentle smile. "Tail, do I look like a child trafficker?" he asked.
Tail sneaked a glance at Joanne's expression and squared her shoulders. "Mommy said that you cannot judge a
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtbook by its cover. Some people have human faces but beastly hearts."
Lucas wanted to give Tail a thumbs up. No wonder she was Joanne's daughter. At such a young age, she could
already use proverbs.
Edwin became even unhappier. What was Joanne teaching her daughter every day?
But his smile became gentler.
He took out a thick wad of notes from his wallet and handed them to Tail.
"I am a kind-hearted and sincere person. I already have a lot of money, and I don't bother with abducting children.
Moreover, I am a friend of your mom, so please do not call me a child trafficker in the future. You should call me..."
Joanne's eyes twitched, and she quickly interrupted him." Mr. Atherton, if you suddenly give her money like this, she
will be scared."
Tail grabbed the thick stack of money, looking bewildered. She had only received gifts while livestreaming before
and didn't have a clear concept of money. She raised her hand and handed the notes back to Edwin.
"Sir, if you are a friend of Mommy, then I will apologize to you, but I cannot accept your money."
Edwin was surprised. After all, Joanne had not reminded her to return the money.
"Don't you like money?"
"I like it.” Tail felt that Edwin was not so scary anymore, and her courage gradually grew. "Mommy works hard to
make a living, and when I earn money, I can help her with the cost of living so that she doesn't need to work so
hard."
Edwin continued to ask, "Then why don't you want the money I gave you?"
"Why should I accept your money for no reason? If you want to give me gifts, you can watch my live stream. I can
sing, dance, draw, and even make you a finger heart..." Tail enticed him skillfully.
Upon hearing this, Lucas asked, "Miss, what is the difference between the two?"
Tail pulled a serious face and explained, "Of course, there is a difference. On the live stream, if I sing and dance, I
earn money through my own efforts. But if you give me money directly, then I owe you something."
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmLucas suddenly felt jealous of Joanne. Tail was really a considerate girl.
Edwin was also melted by her cuteness. His anger at
Joanne for hiding his daughter from him was extinguished by half. He said to Joanne, "I take back what I said before.
You taught your daughter very well."
Joanne rolled her eyes at him. "Aren't you afraid you misunderstood something?"
Edwin knew that she was reminding him not to be self- righteous.
But Edwin firmly believed that Tail was his daughter.
He sneered, "How can Patrick have such a cute and caring daughter? Moreover, in the past four years, even if you
didn't want to figure out who is her biological father, I think Patrick must have done an investigation.”
Since Ada could tolerate the existence of Tail, it meant that
Tail had nothing to do with Patrick.
After all, no woman could tolerate her husband bringing his mistress and illegitimate daughter around under her
nose every day.
Edwin wasn't fond of Tail before, but now he thought she was becoming more and more cute.
'She must be my daughter!’ he thought.
