Chapter 1116
Chapter 1116 Personal Bodyguard
Cooper merely hummed and said, “When I said I was busy with work, I actually went abroad to see your mommy. I lied because I didn''t want
you and Lucian to worry.”
Hearing that, Amanda got worried about her mother. “Why hasn''t Daddy called me in such a long time, though?”
“That''s because he doesn''t want to lie to you, and he''s afraid that you guys might find out about it. Once your mommy has recovered, she will
return alongside your daddy.”
With that, Cooper changed the topic by asking, “We''ll go out for lunch once we''re done building snowmen, okay?”
“Sure!” Amanda''s attention was indeed diverted.
At around eleven something in the morning, they used up almost all the snow around the mansion, and there was a row of snowmen along the
railings in the garden.
Proud of her aplishment, Amanda even wrote names on the snowmen.
Cooper, Sally, and the kids then went inside to rest for a while before going out for lunch.
Amanda wanted pizza, so they went to a pizzeria for lunch.
The restaurant happened to be situated in amercial district, and the shopping mall owned by Specter Corporation was also there. After the
meal, Cooper brought the kids to shop in the mall.
After shopping for children''s clothing, Amanda said to Cooper cutely, “Uncle Cooper, I want a sundae.”
Cooper checked the time and noticed that two hours had passed since they had lunch. Hence, it was alright for Amanda to have a sundae.
“What vor would you like?”
“I want a blueberry-vored sundae. Lucian also wants one.” After saying that, Amanda turned toward Sally and asked, “What about you, Ms.
Loake?”
Sally froze for a moment before answering tly, “Chocte.”
Cooper went downstairs to buy ice cream while Amanda held Sally''s hand before they went upstairs.
“Ms. Loake, are you in a rtionship with Uncle Cooper?” Amanda asked.
“No...”
“Why not?” Amanda tilted her head in bafflement. “Uncle Cooper is handsome, no? Besides, you guys are together every day,” she mumbled.
Walking next to her, Lucian uttered helplessly, “Even if they''re together every day, that doesn''t mean they''re in a rtionship.”
“So? Why aren''t they?” Still puzzled, Amanda raised her gaze toward Sally and asked, “Ms. Loake, what''s your rtionship with Uncle
Cooper?”
Sally pondered for a bit before answering tly, “I''m his personal bodyguard.”
“Oh, I see.” Amanda''s eyes lit up. “Are you like Mr. Sullivan? He sends and fetches us every day, and he would also bring us out to y.”
Sally hummed in response.
Upon arriving upstairs, Amanda saw a shop selling dolls and went in. She then grabbed the dolls she liked and put them in the shopping cart
Sally was pushing.
Amanda was so excited that she identally bumped into the woman in front of her.
The woman was wearing a pair of white boots, and Amanda identally stepped on them, leaving a ck shoe print. Seeing that shoe print,

the woman went berserk.
“Hey! What''s the matter with you, kid? Don''t you have eyes?” she roared.
Amanda steadied herself and realized that she had dirtied the woman''s boots. “I''m sorry, Miss. I''llpensate you.”
“My boots are worth over ten thousand! How are you going to afford it?” the woman sneered.
As the woman was talking, she lifted her head and saw Sally pushing a shopping cart behind Amanda. At that moment, Sally was wearing an
off-white down jacket. Her skin was fair, and she looked cool and gorgeous.
Sally saw the woman as well. I think I''ve seen her before, but I can''t remember who she is.
With that in mind, Sally took the woman as a stranger. On the other hand, the woman crossed her arms andughed. “Aren''t you Ms. Loake?
What a coincidence! I didn''t expect to see you here.”
“You don''t know me, but I think you know my cousin, Eurydice. I''m Eurydice''s favorite cousin, Beatrix,” Beatrix added.
“I don''t know your cousin very well,” Sally replied indifferently.
“You''re General Loake''s daughter, aren''t you? What a well-respected status! I guess that''s why you aren''t close with my cousin,” Beatrix
<pmented sarcastically.
