Chapter 299


    However, Stanley wasn''t an idiot, and when Sharon said "Sadie Cruz, that''s enough", he


    immediately understood her words and looked at the little girl in his arms.


    Meanwhile, her long eyshes were still teary, and her little face was red as an apple. With her


    small hands still clutching onto his shirt by the chest, there was a sense of guilt in her eyes, but she


    was diffident.


    At that moment, Stanley blurted out, "Why are you yelling at her for? She did nothing wrong."


    When Sadie heard this, she was overjoyed. What was there for her to be afraid of when someone


    was backing her up?


    In extreme anger, Sharon yelled, "Can''t you see she was faking it?"


    "Those tears are real, and it was true that she fell and hurt herself. Why would you say she''s faking


    it?"


    That question left Sharon rendered speechless.


    Speechless, Sharon just stared at him.


    However, Seamus also suddenly tugged onto her hand. Of course, as a protective brother, he stood


    on his sister''s side without any hesitation. "Mommy, don''t be like this. Sadie might have really hurt


    herself from the fall."


    When Sharon saw how both of them were supportive of Sadie, her chest ached from anger.


    How did she suddenly be the bad person here?


    However, Seamus was good at taking one''s cue, and he soon realized that Sharon was upset.


    Immediately, he took her hand and led her outside. "Mommy, let''s hurry home. I''m hungry."


    The little boy''s capability to change the subject was superb.


    Meanwhile, Stanley squinted at the little boy, and the corners of his mouth curled upward as he


    trailed along.


    Once again, Sadie, who was lying in Stanley''s embrace, was rescued by her brother. At that


    moment, Stanley pinched her little face and asked, "Were you really putting on an act just now?"


    With a hint of guilt, Sadie whined, "Daddy..."


    "Be honest with me, children cannot lie."


    With a straight face on, Stanley seemed a little scary. In fact, he was used to acting like this in front


    of his subordinates, and he forgot he was currently talking to a child. The moment his face darkened


    a little, Sadie''s mouth twitched. "Daddy, don''t be so fierce to me. I''m scared..."


    The little girl''s eyes were brimming with tears, and she looked so pitiful. Instantly, Stanley


    surrendered and forced a smile. "I didn''t mean to scold you. I''m just telling you that it''s not good to


    lie."


    After Sadie heard his answer, she sniffed her nose, and she seemed to be convinced. Then, she


    nodded and exined, "I feel very happy when youfort me. However, if I stop crying, I''m afraid


    you will stopforting me...


    Although she was only three years old and some of her sentences were not well organized, when


    Stanley heard it, he immediately understood what she meant. When he came to his senses, he was


    dumbfounded again.


    Since she was a child, she had never experienced a father''s love, and now that suddenly there was


    a person who was worried about her, it was normal for her to be more delicate.


    As Stanley thought about it, he pursed his lips and didn''t say anything. Instead, he held Sadie in his


    arms tightly and followed closely.


    Meanwhile, his assistant had been waiting outside for a long time, and when he saw theming


    out of the hospital, he immediately got out of the car. "Mr. Warner, someone from Hectary Company


    just called and made an appointment for dinner."


    Then, Stanley nodded his head as an indication that he understood it.


    When Sharon heard those words, she immediately came up and said, "What dinner are you going


    to attend? Aren''t you going to send us back?"


    In fact, she knew Hectary Company well, and that boss was simply a sex maniac. Besides, his work


    style was extremely bad, and he had a habit of visiting brothels.


    As Stanley nced at her, he uttered, "When did I say I was going to send you home?"


    Before Sharon could say anything, Sadie opened her mouth first, as she blinked her big innocent


    eyes and asked, "Daddy, why are you not sending us back?"


    How was Stanley supposed to answer her question?


    Meanwhile, Sharon silently snorted as she thought to herself, "You don''t have the ability to resist


    this little girl, right? I shall now see how are you going to deal with her."


    With Sadie''s big sparkling eyes that were almost shining as she stared at him like that, he couldn''t


    even reject her.


    With a sigh, Stanley uttered, "Let''s go. I''ll send you back."


    "Yay!"


    Excitedly, Sadie cheered.


    Then, Stanley gave a pat on her butt and shoved her into Sharon''s arms. "Let your mother take the


    both of you to your seat."


    The series of actions were done in an extremely natural manner. When the assistant watched from


    the side, he was dumbfounded. That overflowing paternal love was from the bottom of Stanley''s


    heart, and if one were to say that Stanley was not rted to these two children, he definitely would


    not believe it.


    Seated the passenger seat, Sharon showed Stanley the way to her house while her two children sat


    in the back seat and yed with her phone.


    "Why did youe to Beachmarsh City?" While they were waiting for the traffic light to turn green,


    Sharon asked.


    As Stanley looked steadily forward, he answered, "I''m here to handle some of my work. I''ll be


    leaving once I''m done."


    Unable to hide the disappointment in her eyes, Sharon nced at him. "So soon?"


    "There are still some other things that I need to deal with back at Allgate City." The answer from


    Stanley was very obscure because the "things" that he meant was his marriage with Ayana.


    There was only one month left before the wedding, and they were still a lot of things they needed to


    prepare.


    When Sharon heard what he said, she almost froze, and she seemed somewhat absentminded. As


    she leaned by the window, she turned to look out of the window and continued the journey in


    silence.


    The environment in the neighborhood was not bad, but it was not a particrly good residential


    area. Since her father had gotten into trouble and Stanley had gone missing four years ago, Sharon


    had moved out from that vi.


    This residential area was found by Melody for her back then. It was not too expensive, and the


    environment was quite good, so Sharon had been living there for thest four years.


    When they reached her ce, Sharon found a pair of slippers and gave them to Stanley, who stood


    outside the door. "Come on in. I''m sorry that my house is a little messy."


    At that moment, she was slightly embarrassed because her ce had not been really tidy since she


    gave birth. Toys were scattered all over the sofa and the floor of the living room. Hurriedly, Sharon


    cleaned them up out of embarrassment and poured him a ss of water.


    Meanwhile, Stanley took a look around the house and realized that although the area was not big, it


    was indeed warm and cozy.


    As soon as the two children reached home, they sat on the ground and yed happily. After Sharon


    prepared the medicine for Sadie and fed it to her, she then went to the kitchen to continue her


    chores. The tes that they used the night before were left in the sink, yet to be washed.


    When Stanley looked at her busy figure from the moment she walked in, his eyes grew darker.


    After Sharon was done with the dishes in the kitchen, she came out to take a look and was taken


    aback for a moment. "Where is him?"


    As Seamus looked up, he pointed at the balcony. "Over there."


    Since when did he shift from the living room to the balcony? After thinking for a moment, Sharon


    walked over and opened the balcony door. Immediately, a pungent smell of smoke attacked her


    nose.


    "Ahem."


    As soon as she coughed, Stanley lifted his long arms and instantly closed the door behind him.


    Property belongs to N?vel(D)r/ama.Org.


    It was then when Sharon nced at the cigarette in his hand as she lowered her eyes and said


    nothing. During herst trip to Allgate City was when she discovered that this man had started


    smoking again.


    Then, she remembered four years ago, when he said that he would quit smoking for her...


    "Miss Cruz." Just as she was thinking about the past, Stanley''s voice pulled her back from her


    thoughts.


    With her head raised, she asked, "Yes?"


    "I would like to take this opportunity to talk about the matter between us."


    Calmly, Sharon nodded. "All right, go ahead."


    After Stanley inhaled his cigarette and exhaled slowly, he gazed deeply at the siblings who were


    ying in the living room. Slowly, he squinted his narrow eyes and said, "Are they really my kids?"
