Andrew was just about to walk over when Dolores said from the kitchen, "Andrew, do Mommy a favor,
okay?"
"Okay." Andrew walked to the kitchen and Dolores pointed to the green onions in the basket, "Can you
help Mommy peel some green onions, please?"
Andrew picked up the green onions and gave Dolores the answer with his actions.
By the time Andrew had peeled the green onions, Dolores had already cooked the wontons. She took
the green onions that Andrew had peeled, washed them and chopped them up and put them in the
bowls. The soup for the wontons was made in the bowl directly. She put some shrimps, oil, a little soy
sauce, and chopped green onions in the bowl. Then, she added some soup to mix everything. Finally,
she put the wontons in the bowl. Then the wontons were done.
"Wash your hands. It's time to eat," Dolores said to Andrew. She placed the bowl with the wontons on
the plate so it wouldn't burn her hands.
Andrew already smelled the wontons and didn't have time to look at the "fool". He washed his hands,
sat down on the chair at the table, and waited for his dinner.
The soup of the wontons smelled good because of the oil. The shrimps added a fresh flavor to the
wontons. The wrappers of the wontons were made of dietary alkaline so they were very smooth.
Dolores brought the bowls for the two children to them and then offered Oscar one of the two remaining
bowls, "If you don't get enough, I'll make you something else."
Dolores had no idea he would be back so early. She thought Oscar would be back with Theresa, so
she didn't prepare too many wontons. She was worried that he wouldn't get enough with just one bowl
of wontons.
Oscar waved his hand and said with a smile, "No need. I ate something on the plane. This is enough.
I'm sorry for stealing yours."
He looked at the two children and asked, "Are these enough for you guys?"
Amanda licked her lips and looked at Oscar with a smile. Then she said sweetly, "Mr. Adams, when I
finish my wontons later, can you take me out for a walk, please?"
She wanted to eat ice cream, but Mommy wouldn't buy it for her. Mommy said that too much ice cream
was bad for her stomach, but she wanted it so much.
Andrew instantly knew what Amanda wanted to do. So, he said, "I want to go too, take me with you."
He wanted to eat ice cream too, especially after eating hot wontons.
Dolores frowned, "What do you guys want? Huh?"
"Oh, we just want to take a walk outside to help digestion after eating so much." Amanda pouted and
looked at Andrew, "Right, brother?"
Andrew cooperated with her rarely, "Yes, it's good for our bodies to take a walk after eating."
Dolores wanted to say something else, but Oscar said first, "Well, they just want to go out. You don't
have to worry about it with me following them."
Since Oscar said so, she couldn't say no. After dinner, Dolores cleaned up the dishes on the table, and
Oscar put a flash drive on the table, "This is the video I let someone record at the scene. Check it out
when you have time. You should be there, it's very nice. It's a pity that you weren't there."
He was here to deliver this to Dolores. He sighed, "This is the fruit of two months of your hard work. I
really can't understand why you don't want to show up."
Dolores bowed her head and did not explain. She just said faintly, "Don't take them out too long. Come
back early."
Oscar said, "Okay."
Dolores went to the kitchen with the bowls. The two children had already put on their shoes. They could
take care of themselves on their own now.
Oscar took them out. As they got on the elevator, he said, "What do you guys want?"
He had been with these two kids for over two months. Take a walk? That was clearly not their style.
Amanda smiled, took Oscar's hand, shook it, and said sweetly, "We just want ice cream."
Oscar rubbed her hair, "I knew you guys wouldn't have the awareness to take a walk after dinner.
Whenever you have time, you just stay at home and watch TV. Every time I ask you to come out, you
always say it's too hot outside. Now you want to eat ice cream and you don't think it's hot outside?"
"Ice cream is cold. When we eat ice cream, we are naturally not hot anymore," Andrew said.
With a ding, the elevator stopped at this point, and Oscar led them out of the elevator. He laughed and
rubbed Andrew's head, "You're so smart."
Walking out of the neighborhood, Amanda immediately saw the man on the opposite side of the road
answering the phone. Although the man's back was to her and she didn't see his face, she recognized
his back. She immediately shouted, "Daddy."
Matthew, who was on the phone with Abbott, heard her voice and turned around to see the two children
at the entrance to the neighborhood. Amanda let go of Oscar's hand and ran across the street, calling
out to her dad as she ran.
"Watch out," Oscar shouted. It was too dangerous to run across the street.
At that moment, there was a speeding car not far away. Amanda didn't see the car, and all she could
think about was running in Matthew's direction. They hadn't seen each other in over two months. Now,
she finally saw her dad. She was afraid that if she was late, he would disappear.
She wanted her dad. She even forgot about the ice cream, much less the danger.
The car was fast. The driver didn't expect someone to suddenly rush out from the side of the road and
hit the brakes hurriedly. Nevertheless, the car didn't stop immediately. At the very last moment when
Amanda was about to be hit, a dark figure picked up Amanda's small body like the wind. As she was
picked up, the car brushed past them.
If Matthew had been a little later, Amanda would have been hit by the car. The car pulled up a short
distance away. Oscar rushed over and kicked the car, cursing, "What the hell! Are you blind? How dare
you drive so fast in front of the neighborhood."
The driver was also in shock. He didn't expect someone to suddenly rush into the road.
When the driver didn't move, Oscar kicked the car again. A dent immediately appeared in the car door,
"Get out of the car!"
The driver shivered in fear and opened the door with a pale face.
Oscar was usually cheerful and seemed to have no temper, but he was very scary when he got angry.
He got angry mainly because his bottom line was crossed. Who was Amanda? She was Dolores' child!
Who was Dolores? She was the daughter of his older brother whom he had always respected. Just
now, because of this driver, Amanda was almost in danger. How could he not be angry!
If something really happened to Amanda, how should he explain to Dolores?
Amanda, who was being held in Matthew's arms, was so scared that she didn't respond for a long time.
She was dumbstruck and clearly terrified.
Matthew patted her back and said softly, "It's okay. Daddy's here. Don't be afraid."
Amanda immediately cried when she thought back to the scene she had just witnessed.
Amanda's cries brought Oscar, who was in a rage, back to his senses. He glared at the driver, "If it
were before, I would have beaten you to death. You stand still and don't try to escape. There's
surveillance right in front of the neighborhood."
After that, Oscar rushed over to check Amanda. At this moment, she was sobbing in Matthew's arms
and kept crying, "Daddy, I'm scared."
Matthew kissed her on the face. Because she cried with tears all over her face, Matthew got the salty
taste. But he didn't mind, instead, it hurt more for him. His lips rubbed the corners of her eyes and he
said in a low voice, "Don't be afraid. Daddy is here."
Hearing the word daddy, Amanda cried even harder. She was so aggrieved.
