Chapter 49
Chapter 49 Out of the blue, he asked, “Umm, do you like to eat sweet things?” Tina nodded, joyful. “Oh, I
love them! Chocte cotton candy’s my favorite.” Samuel was shocked. Coco’s favorite food was also
chocte cotton candy. “What’s wrong?” Noticing his stare, Tina grew embarrassed. “Do you think I’m
too childish? I mean, cotton candy is something kids would like to eat…” John shook his head almost
immediately. “Not at all. What a pleasant coincidence, I also like chocte cotton candy!” “Really?” Tina
was surprised. She didn’t expect a gentleman like Mr. Carter to have a pte for sweets.
“I know how to make sweets, too. If you want, I can make some for you.”
John nodded happily, smiling. “Sure!” Tina warmed up to him instantly when he struck up the topic of
desserts. She chatted merrily with John, her tone happy and eager. Aside from having the same
preference for deserts, they also shared simr hobbies and interests. The entire time, Tina enjoyed
herself. Before they knew it, the car came to a stop and the driver announced, “Mr. Carter, we have
arrived at the hospital.” Tina came back to her senses. She hurried to say, “Thank you so much for
sending me here, Mr. Carter. I’ll take my leave now. Goodbye!”

She waved her hand and smiled brightly. John replied in a gentle tone, “Goodbye.” He stared quietly at
Tina’s back as she left. Without knowing it, a warm smile graced his lips. He was beaming. The driver
saw John’s warm expression andmented emotionally, “Mr. Carter … I haven’t seen you chatting that
happily with someone in ages.” Ever since the unfortunate disappearance of his sister, John had never
been as chatty. He became more reserved, speaking only when he was required to at work. John
heaved out a long, mournful sigh. “The way she talks reminds me of Coco…” Coco was a girl with a
bright personality, who also happened to love desserts. Sadly, John knew it was just a mere coincidence
that Coco and Tina happened to resemble each other.
Even after all these years, he was still dedicated to searching for his lost sister. Whenever he heard trails
about Coco, he would immediately verify it personally. Thus, he also treated his encounter with Tina very
seriously. Coco had a birthmark on her back. Using that clue, he searched through almost all the
orphanages and hospitals in the city for relevant information.
Still, nothing came up. After facing major disappointment time and again, he had to ept the painful
fact that Coco wasn’t in this city.
After wrapping up his business with Samuel Langford , he would head back to his hometown.
As for Tina, John could sense that she was an innocent and kind littledy. Before leaving, he decided to
do his best to look out for her.
When John’s car drove away, two people got out of a car not far away from him. They were Samuel and
Cindy.
In Cindy’s hand was a thermos with freshly brewed chicken soup. Cindy put on her usual sweet facade
and said innocently, “Samuel, I think I saw Miss Lynd getting out of that car just now… That doesn’t
seem like a taxi. Is that her friend’s car?”
