Chapter 213 Seamless Coordination
After returning to the city. Erin’sic had only depicted her approaching the stage of recovering her
appearance. Although she’d already drawn some digital drafts on theputer, she hadn’t uploaded
them yet.
She hesitated because she didn’t know how the plot should unfold next. Would the truth be revealed in
an intense manner, or should she let her son, Asa, ept her before proceeding? This hesitation
caused her to stop drawing theic for several days, which drove the editors of theic website
crazy.
The moment Erin opened the chat tool in the morning after waking up, the sound of notifications
popping up one after another on herptop was extremely jarring.
Editor: Asae Mama, are you okay?
Editor: Are you sick?
Editor: Hello?
Editor: Has your ount been hacked?
Editor: Please respond as soon as you receive this!
Editor: AsaelMama….
Editor: Are you giving up on theic?
Following that was a series of crying emojis. The editor’s reaction caused Erin to be both amused and
exasperated at the same time.
When she signed the contract with theic website, she’d informed the editor in advance that she
couldn’t guarantee the smooth
Sitting in front of theputer desk, Erin pondered for a full ten minutes before finally typing a line in
reply: “I won’t give up. I’ll definitely finish theic. I just need time.”
The editor replied instantaneously: “AsaelMama, can you give me your phone number? I would like to
talk to you on the phone.”
In the end, Erin didn’t give her number. Her life was still a mess at the moment, and her interaction with
her son, Asa, had just begun. She didn’t feel like drawing theic for now. After closing herptop,
Erin went downstairs to the kitchen to have breakfast.
It was Saturday, and since she didn’t have any lessons to teach, she could only focus on matters
rted to her work.
The people from Truffleberry Media had called her three times, but she hadn’t answered them yet. She
knew it was Sean wanting to discuss the script with her. The previous film and televisionpany had
been forced to withdraw from the project. Now, the coboration was purely between Erin and
Truffleberry Media.
Just as Erin finished breakfast and was about to call the people from Truffleberry Media to arrange a
meeting time, the doorbell of the vi rang. She immediately walked across the dining room and
headed toward the living room, making her way to the front hall.
Erin nced at the person on the surveince screen. She was unable to see theirce as it was
obscured by arge bouquet of white lilies. She frowned slightly, thinking that it couldn’t be Roman–
because if it were Roman, he would have used his own key to enter. The other person was patient and
held the bouquet of lilies in front of theirce. In the end, Erin opened the door.
As soon as the door opened, the lilies were immediately moved aside, revealing an extraordinarily
beautiful and delicate man’s face right before Erin’s eyes.
She eximed in surprise, “Paulo, why are you here?”

Her tone was filled with astonishment and delight. Paulo smiled, putting one hand around her waist as
he leaned down to kiss her forehead. Erin was a bit stunned by the kiss. Although she asionally
held hands and walked arm in arm with Paulo in the Garden of Eden, she’d never been kissed like this,
even on the forehead.
Looking at the woman he liked staring back at him nkly, Paulo smirked mischievously. “Have I
kissed you silly?”
Erin lifted her gaze, intending to look into his eyes, but the figure that appeared in her line of sight
made her heart skip a beat. She
turned, he saw a tall man and a small boy standing not far away.
There stood Chandler and Asa.
Right then, Asa’s expression clearly showed that he was displeased. Erin’s heart was in chaos. Did the
father and son see Paulo kissing
her earlier?
Just when Erin was at a loss about what to say, to her embarrassment, Chandler held Asa’s little hand
and walked toward them. Paulo stood in ceckadaisically with one hand over Erin’s shoulder. He
stared at Chandler, whom he found irritating, with a deep and
meaningful gaze.
However, Chandler’s face remained neutral. Only the chill in his eyes made Erin feel a slight tension in
the air. She didn’t know why she
was so nervous.
Technically, she was now Pam, and she had no personal rtionship or acquaintance with
Chandler. He was her employer, and she
was just an art teacher he hired and nothing more.
“Miss Pam, Daddy and I made chicken and vegetable sandwiches this morning. I want to give you
one to taste, but I don’t know if you’ll
like it.” Asa was already standing in front of Erin.
He held an environmentally friendly paper bag in his hand and offered the sandwich to Erin.
Erin excitedly reached out with both hands to ept it. In that instance, Paulo’s arm that had been
holding Erin hung in the air awkwardly. He withdrew it, feeling slightly embarrassed.
“Asa, thank you for the sandwich. I haven’t had breakfast yet.” Erin lied without batting an eye because
she wanted to please Asa.
Asa waved his hand. “You’re wee, Miss Pam. Can Daddy and Ie in and sit for a while? I’m
a bit thirsty.”
Paulo looked at the seamless coordination between the father and son, feeling displeased at their
interference. He’d just arrived and they’d already started raining on his parade!
Erin immediately smiled and said. “Of course, pleasee in.”
Chandler remained silent throughout as if he was just an apanying robot. He followed Asa into the
house. Holding therge bouquet of lilies and sighing heavily, Paulo entered as well. After all four of
them went inside, Erin brought them over to the sofa in the living room. She turned and went to the
kitchen to pour everyone some water.
Paulo was initially sitting on the sofa, but when he saw Erin leave, he immediately stood up and
followed her to the kitchen.
Right then, Chandler and Asa exchanged a nce, and Asa immediately understood his father’s
pointed gaze. He said. “Okay, I’ll go and check.”
Asa cleverly climbed down from the sofa and scurried to the kitchen with his short legs. Chandler
watched his little figure getting further and further away with a smug smile on his lips.
“Atta boy, Asa!” he cheered inwardly.
In the kitchen, Erin was confronting Paulo. “What was that about at the door just now? Did you just
come back from being abroad? We don’t have the custom of greeting each other with a kiss in our
country. Don’t do that next time!”
Paulo had a lopsided grin as he countered, “Why are you so nervous? Is it because you saw Chandler?
Is that why you care so much?” Erin lowered her gaze and turned to grab a ss. “No! What does he
have to do with anything?”
She tried to remain calm when she said that, but the underlying tension in her lone made Paulo feel a
hint of helplessness. As his slender body leaned against the refrigerator door, his dark eyes suddenly
caught sight of a small figure approaching them.
Paulo narrowed his eyes slightly, took a step forward, and embraced Erin from behind. He whispered in
her ear, “It’s been several days since we’vest seen each other. Did you miss me?”
Erin was startled and dropped the ss into the sink. As she turned around, she saw the small figure
not far away too. Her whole body froze. “Asa-”
