It was already afternoon. Looking at Kevin, Anne asked in a low voice, "Should we go back?"
After all, they had stayed in Shen's House for such a long time.
Kevin nodded slightly, turned to look at Colin and said with a smile, "It's getting late. We should leave
now."
Colin stood up. Before he could say anything, his phone suddenly rang. So he said in a hurry, "Sorry, I
have to answer the phone."
After a few words on the phone, Colin's face darkened.
Anne saw Kevin remain calm. While looking at Colin's face, she knew that something must have
happened to him.
A few minutes later, Colin hung up the phone. From the few words on the phone, Anne and Kevin had
guessed that there was a big problem with Colin's cooperation.
"Let me see you out." Colin turned to Anne and Kevin. There was no longer anxiety on his handsome
face.
If he didn't panic when something happened and was able to suppress it in the bottom of his heart, he
must be a steady fellow.
"You're welcome if you need any help." Said Kevin.
Colin sighed heavily and said helplessly, "There is something wrong with my cooperation in another
city. Mr. Fu, I don't think you can help, but thank you."
When a person was in his down, it was a real friend to offer to help.
Kevin shook his head and held Sally in his arms.
Looking back at Ella, Anne saw her sitting there with her head down. Although Anne couldn't see Ella's
expression, she could feel that Ella was in a very bad mood.
Sitting next to Ella, Eddy held her hand tightly and looked down at her, his eyes full of worry.
Heaving a sigh of helplessness, Colin slowly walked up to Ella. He slowly lowered his tall body, and
said to Ella softly, "Honey, my good girl. Dad will be back in a few days."
At home, Colin always called Ella 'Honey'.
Ella raised her head and bit her cute lips with her white teeth. She felt very aggrieved.
"But you just came back yesterday." Then Ella lowered her head again.
Colin was always busy with his work. And there weren't much time he could stay with Ella. Besides,
Ella didn't have a mother, so she was more eager for her father's love.
Yesterday, Colin promised that he could accompany her for a few days, which made Ella happy. But
she didn't expect that he would leave again so soon.
"Daddy, you don't keep your promise." Although Ella was used to being left alone, she still felt very
upset at this moment.
Colin smiled helplessly. He reached out and pinched Ella's little face. He gently held her in his arms
and comforted her, "It happened all of a sudden. I didn't expect it to be like this. It's my fault to break
my promise. But it is urgent and I have to go. Honey, be good at home and wait for Dad to come back
in a few days."
"How many days will it take?" Unwilling to give up, Ella continued to ask.
Colin's face froze and he sighed. The situation there was urgent and serious. He didn't know how many
days it would take.
If he took Ella with him, he would be distracted.
It...
From Colin's silence, Ella saw that her father didn't know how many days he would be away, and that
he must go!
"Okay, you go. You only know about work. You don't love me at all. You'd better leave now. Anyway, I'm
a child that no one loves. My mother abandoned me when she gave birth to me. You don't care about
me now. You can leave now. Leave me alone!" All of a sudden, Ella pushed Colin away. She looked
down. The tears had already dropped on her white legs.
Colin was astonished. He had never expected that Ella would say something like that one day.
Standing next to them, Anne felt pity for Ella. How could a four year old child say something like that?
Her mother died in a difficult labor, which was an unchangeable thing. As for Colin, if he didn't work
hard, how could he support his daughter?
After all, Ella was too young to understand her father's painstaking efforts. But what about the pain in
the kid's heart?
Kevin frowned and held Sally tighter.
Anne had once been imprisoned for two years. And Sally and Simon were kept away from him for two
years. Now that they could come back to him, it was the best gift from God!
Kevin thought he was a heartless man. He didn't even hesitate to destroy other people's family. But
after being a father, his heart became incomparably soft, especially when he saw such a young girl.
"Ella, don't you like Eddy? Would you like to stay with Eddy? " Kevin asked.
Then everyone turned around to look at Kevin. Even Anne was surprised.
Colin looked at Kevin. Kevin nodded at him. Colin naturally understood what Kevin meant. And he was
even more grateful.
Ella's eyes widened. A tear was still hanging by her eyes, which made her look more pitiful. But her big
eyes looked very intelligent and cute.
When Ella was a younger, every time Colin was about to be on a business trip, she didn't want him to
go. She cried and screamed, but she couldn't stop Colin.
Ella tried several times, but not once that she could stop Colin from leaving. She began to get that
whatever she did, Colin would not stay.
So from then on, Ella stopped crying or making trouble, since it made no difference.
She had been very envious of Eddy's loving family and his good mother. That was why she couldn't
help crying when she knew Colin would be away on a business trip.
But she didn't expect that Kevin would invite her to his home.
Then what should she do? Ella turned to Colin expectantly.
As a father, Colin knew what was on Ella's mind.
Ella wanted to go!
Lowering his head, a complicated look flashed through Colin's eyes. Kevin was the most powerful
person in A City. Because of Ella and Eddy, he could have more contact with Kevin and his wife. Now
there were many rumors about him in the city.
He just ignored it.
What if he sent Ella to their home?
"Daddy..." Ella gently tugged at Colin's clothes, and Colin's face was reflected in her dark eyes.
At that moment, Colin seemed to see another woman, who was the same when she acted cutesy to
him.
Colin's body trembled slightly and slowly put his hand on Ella's face. But the childish face brought him
back to his senses in an instant.
Although Ella was still young, she had a beautiful face. When she grew up, she must be very alike to
her mother.
It was said that a daughter looked more like her father, but Ella was more like her mother.
Colin turned to Kevin and Anne, "I am deeply grateful."
What else could he do?
Shaking her head, Anne said with a smile, "Don't worry. We will take good care of Ella."
Colin nodded and felt very much indebted.
That day, after helping Ella pack up her clothes, they went straight to the Fu's house.
This was the first time that Ella came here.
Standing at the door of the Fu's house, Ella rolled her eyes. The Fu Family fortunes wasn't built up from
Kevin. So the house had an ancient aura.
Ella opened her mouth slightly. She thought her home was good enough, but she didn't expect that
Eddy's home was more beautiful.
Anne tapped Eddy's little arm gently with her hand. Eddy looked at her in confusion. But soon he
understood what was going on. Then he walked up to Ella, held her hand and said with a smile, "Let
me show you around. What do you think?"
Of course, Ella was pleased and she nodded heavily. Just then, Selma came out.
Selma walked towards her grandson with a smile. But when she saw the little girl beside him, she felt a
little confused.
"Who is this?" Selma asked while looking at Ella up and down. The little girl had fair skin, beautiful eyes
and delicate features, just like a doll in the window. She would definitely be exceedingly beautiful when
she grew up.
She would be prettier than Anne.
"Ella." Anne was laughing.
Raising her eyebrows, Selma looked back at Anne. And then she saw that Eddy was holding Ella's
hand. She nodded meaningfully.
This little girl was Ella. Just as Anne had said, her beauty was beyond deion.
Selma looked at Ella carefully. It would be great if such a perfect girl to be a Mrs. Fu!
Well, well. Only the granddaughter-in-law she had cultivated from an early age could make her more
satisfied.
Selma squatted down and smile to Ella, "Good girl. Call me grandma."
Hearing that, Anne's mouth twitched a little.
With her eyes wide open, Ella didn't show any timidity. She bit her lips and corrected Selma, "Grandma,
l am Ella. You can also call me honey. That's what my father calls me."
Selma nodded with a smile, "Okay. I will call you whatever you want me to. What a beautiful and lovely
girl!"
Although Ella was young, she could still feel that the person in front of her liked her very much. So she
turned to Eddy with pride. But Eddy turned away and his ears were a little red.
Ella was confused.
Sally had fallen asleep in Kevin's arms. He walked into the room.
It was not a good habit to sleep on a full stomach.
After entering the house, Anne asked Eddy to show Ella around. And she told Selma what had
happened. Selma was happy to have Ella move in.
At first, she thought that the words described by Anne on Ella were a little exaggerated. She thought
Ella wouldn't be that beautiful. But now she knew Anne wasn't exaggerating. If Ella could be her
granddaughter-in-law, it would be an honor for her to take Ella out!
So how could she not like Ella?
Selma lowered her head and smiled with satisfaction. It seemed that while she was taking care of the
children, she had something new to do. That was great!
Anne shook her head helplessly. It was just a joke at first. After all, the children were so young and they
didn't know what would happen in the future. But it seemed that Selma had become serious. Anne
didn't know what would happen next.
