La pouted. "You should ask my mom that!"
"| dare not," the manager said while chuckling. "I''m afraid that I''ll make her feel sad if | ask her that question."
"But I''m sad, too, now that you have asked me this question!" La said gloomily.
"Do you miss your dad?" the manager asked. "He would often tell me how much he loves you. He even said that the only reason
he makes plenty of money is so you can spend it all."
"Really?" La batted her big, bright eyes and asked, "What else did he say?"
"Your dad doesn''t say much, but whenever he talks about you, he gets really excited.
He would always say that he loves his daughter best."
La felt a lump in her throat.
"Do you want to call your dad? I''m sure he would be really happy if you called him," said the manager. "Your mom has to look
after your brother, but I''m sure you can get your mom''s phone and call your dad.”
"Uncle, | think it''s you who wants to talk to my dad, right?" La saw right through him.
The manager flushed and nodded shyly. "I started working for your dad when | returned to Aryadelle, and we are really close."
"Oh... I will go ask my mom for her phone, then." La agreed to his suggestion and immediately went to find Avery.
Avery was talking to another woman who had brought her child along, too, and La went up to Avery and asked for her phone."
Mom, lend me your phone."
Avery took out her phone and handed it to La without hesitation. "Why do you need my phone?"
"I am calling Dad," La said, before walking away with the phone.
Once La left, a female employee of Sterling Group next to Avery asked, "Has La always been this close to Mr. Foster?"
"Elliot spoiled her rotten. Though she sides with me whenever we fight, she still adores her father."
"There are very few who are immune to Mr. Foster''s charm. People would fall at his feet even if he just stands, not saying a
word," said the employee with a smile." Throughout the years, there had been a fewpanies who had offered me jobs with a
much higher pay, but I still stayed on.” "Cause you are not short of money?"
"Hahaha! That''s true, but also because there''s a certain sense of security in working for Mr. Foster. Maybe I''ve simply found my
comfort zone, ?a*;RMP< | don''t want to move away from it."
"Yeah, that''s how people work. When I first got together with Elliot, we fought every single day, and it took us some time to finally
find our middle ground. After that, | just can''t seem to fall in love with any other man. Maybe it''s just like what you said. I just don''t
have the energy to get used to another man."
"Avery, having Mr. Foster is enough. You don''t even need to look at other men. You have no idea how much we envy you."
"Yeah. Having him is enough." Avery was content, and her only wish was for him to safely return home.
La took Avery''s phone to the manager she had been talking to earlier, and he took her somewhere quiet to make the call.
La unlocked the phone, pulled up the contacts list, found her father''s number, and called him.This content belongs to N?/velDra/ma.Org .
