Chapter 1277


    The car moved at a slower speed, so when he looked out of the window, he saw the child wearing a


    fluffy, lush green, puffy frog jumpsuit. The child was securely wrapped in their attire from top to bottom


    in the jumpsuit while revealing only a small face. The child was now approaching in the direction of his


    car.


    He recognized her upon seeing her.


    Bailey nced through the window a few times and saw her carrying a small bag on her back. The


    child was scuttling outside without the supervision of an adult. Nevertheless, there was another child


    who was about her height walking beside her—he also wore fluffy clothes with a tiger-head hat on his


    head.


    The two children were walking along the roadside.


    Bailey nced out of his car window several times. Initially, he did not want to be involved, but then he


    saw a few suspicious guys surrounding the two children and took charge in the end.


    “Stop the car.”


    The car came to a halt and he alighted from the car. He saw a few people blocking the way of the small


    figure in a frog jumpsuit. He was unsure whether they had any ill intentions, but he knew the child’s


    home address, so he just could not stand by and do nothing.


    “Hey, you are so adorable!”


    “You truly resemble Carmen from ‘Where Are We Going, Dad?’!”


    “Kiddo, where are you going alone? Where are your parents?”


    A group of people was now surrounding the child who wore the frog jumpsuit while picking her up to


    toss her around. However, once the people from the Adams Family arrived, they managed to chase


    that group of would-be kidnappers away.


    “Come over here. I’ll send the two of you home.” Bailey squatted down while opening his arms and


    tried his best to appear as friendly as possible.


    However, the lolita was especially fierce in an adorable manner. “I don’t want to go home! I want to


    search for Daddy and Mommy!”


    With that, she turned to run away. He had already lost his patience by then, so he strode ahead to pick


    her up. Then, he pushed her into the car whereas his assistant ced the other child into the car too.


    Then, they sped away without wasting any time.


    The lolita was fuming in the car. Therefore, she refused to speak while facing her back toward him.


    Bailey saw her bag, which had her name written across it, and guessed that she could have escaped


    from her kindergarten because only preschools would have their students’ names written across their


    bags. “Are you Carmen Fletcher? Are you usually addressed as Carmen? Who are your parents? Can I


    call your parents on your behalf?”


    Carmen paused before answering, “Daddy is at Crimson House. I want to head to the restaurant in


    Crimson House! Here, look—it’s right here!”


    She took out a small phone and there was a set of coordinates in there. The predetermined location


    was a nearby restaurant named ‘Crimson House’.


    Bailey took the opportunity to take away her phone, which caused her to burst in anger. She threw


    herself forward while yelling, “Return it to me!”


    He blocked her with a hand while using the other to take her phone away. Usually, that type of


    children’s phones would have the emergency call function installed. After switching it on, one should


    directly be able to make a phone call via speed-dial. With that, he phoned the number registered as


    ‘Father’.


    On the other hand, in the western restaurant in Crimson House, Sophia and Sarah were watching the


    surveince footage from the kindergarten. It was currently lunch break, so all the children were having


    their naps.


    “Look! Sour Face is sound asleep! Carmen also looks super adorable when she’s asleep! Oh my, my


    babies are so cute!”


    Sarah watched her baby through the video as her eyes were as bright as the stars. However, Sophia


    was staring at Carmen… Why hasn’t she tossed around after such a long time? She seems to be deep


    asleep while having a nket covering her face.


    After staring for a few minutes, Carmen still had not tossed and turned. Michael approached them in


    curiosity; he felt weird at the situation and was about to give the kindergarten teacher a ring when he


    suddenly received a phone call from Carmen.


    He stared at the video screen while ncing at the number disyed on his phone screen before he


    answered the call. He was then greeted with a cold and distant male voice, “Are you Carmen Fletcher’s


    father? I picked your daughter up from the streets and we are on our way to Crimson House now.”


    After that, the person hung up on the call.


    Soon, it was the end of the lunch break and the other children started to wake up. Carmen was the only


    one still asleep, so the teacher was startled to see a… doll after removing her nket.

    Michael was at a loss for words when he saw that.


    Fortunately, a few minutester, he and Sophia weed Carmen into their arms on the ground floor.


    “Daddy! Mommy!”


    Carmen was like a nymph when she charged toward them whereas Sophia held her tightly.


    “Where did you go? You gave me a scare! You aren’t allowed to head out alone in the future! Daddy


    and Mommy will be heartbroken if we lose you!”


    Sophia held Carmen tightly; she was angry, but her heart also ached because she was still recovering


    from her initial fear. I would be lost if something bad were to happen to Carmen!


    Carmen answered, “Nichs is with me, so I will not get lost!”


    Sophia nced at Nichs who was just behind Carmen. Fine, nobody would have recognized it as a


    robot. Carmen must have been worried that it might be cold, so she put a cotton-padded jacket on it


    with a tiger-head hat. That attire makes it look like a child.


    Michael was feeling troubled. His eyes widened in shock and he almost fainted the moment he caught


    sight of the doll when the nket was removed in the video. Did she dig the dog hole in the


    kindergarten again? My baby is intelligent and it’s difficult to raise children once they can move around


    on their own ord!


    He pretended to maintain a furious expression and refused to speak with Carmen. On one hand, she


    knew that he was angry, so she nced at him with pitiful eyes. Soon, tears streamed down her


    cheeks.


    “Daddy, it’s my mistake. I won’t dare to escape from the kindergarten in secret in the future.”


    Michael maintained his fierce expression. “Did you know that because of you, both the kindergarten


    director and your mother were so worried that they were on the verge of tears? Have you thought about


    the consequences when you ran out of the kindergarten?”


    Sophia added from the side, “Look, even Daddy is angry. You must not run away in secret in the future,


    do you understand?”


    Both parents were ying good cop and bad cop. In the end, Cooper picked Carmen up to take her


    inside the restaurant.


    Bailey, who was observing the exchange from behind, was rendered speechless. Earlier, she had a


    fierce, but adorable expression in the car. However, she turned into an innocent and cute child the


    moment she exited the car. The little girl is indeed two-faced.


    Michael did not expect Bailey to be the one to pick Carmen up, so he eagerly invited the man to have


    lunch together inside the restaurant. Bailey was preparing to head to another restaurant, but did not


    reject the offer since he had brought the little girl over—and it so happened that he had matters to


    discuss with Cooper. Therefore, Bailey entered the building with them.


    “Huh, Bailey, what happened to your face?” Michael saw a gash across Bailey’s chin and it was


    bleeding.


    Bailey answered, “I fell by ident.” He thought, Your daughter, Carmen Fletcher, bit me! The little girl


    is extremely fierce. I merely patted her head under the frog jumpsuit and she bit my chin instead.


    Carmen buried her face against Sophia’s embrace. The young girl was still sobbing; she still yed the


    victim by looking wronged and cute.


    It was Master Sam’s treat today, so he invited everybody to order what they fancied. After the meal,


    they still had to rush to the afternoon show, so everybody was as busy as a bee. Nevertheless, it was


    his treat. Hence, it was still an amazing meal even though it was a casual one.


    During the meal, everybody sat at a round table. Bailey and Cooper had matters to discuss with each


    other, so they sat together.


    Michael held Carmen in his arms while he continued to lecture her, “You can’t be disobedient just


    because you are adorable. Looking pretty doesn’t mean that you have the permission to do as you


    please!”


    “A disobedient baby will be a bad baby and a bad baby will gradually be ugly!”


    She pouted while listening to her father scolding her.


    The dishes had not been served, so everybody was either chatting or using their phones.


    Sarah noticed that Betsy was constantly batting her eyshes in a flirtatious manner at Harry whereas


    he had his head bowed down. He was focused on his phone while ignoring Betsy.


    B*tch! It looks like you haven’t learned your lesson from thest incident!
