Chapter 150
Angeline knew Jessica liked gardening because Robert had mentioned it.
"That's a great idea! Let's quickly get ready and head out after breakfast," Angeline suggested asshe gently ruffled Yasmine's hair.
"Okay!"
Yasmine sprang out of bed. She efficiently grabbed the small stool Sean had set up the previousnight and briskly went through her morning routine. She then obediently sat at the dining table forbreakfast.
While Angeline was on the phone on the balcony, Yasmine used her smartwatch to video callXavier. The call connected quickly, revealing a face identical to Yasmine's on the tiny screen.However, Xavier, on the other end, was stern. He tapped his finger on a laptop keyboard.
He coolly uttered just one word, "Speak."
Yasmine glanced surreptitiously at Angeline outside and whispered, "Xavier, I met Daddy. He tuckedme in last night."
Yasmine shared the previous day's events with Xavier during Angeline's brief phone callinterruption.
"Xavier, Daddy's embrace feels different from Mommy's. His arms are so strong," Yasmine said asher face radiated happiness.novelbin
"I don't think Daddy is a bad person."
"There's an old saying that goes, 'You can't judge a book by its cover'," Xavier replied firmly from thescreen.
"You must protect Mommy. If anything happens, contact me immediately."
"Got it, Xavier. I'm going to pick flowers for the beautiful Mrs. Lawson with Mommy soon. I'll talk toyou later. I need to drink my milk to grow as tall as you next time we meet!"
After ending the call, Yasmine held her milk mug with both hands and drank every last drop. Shethen rinsed her mouth and put on a pumpkin sweater. She packed her little pumpkin backpack andsun hat before sitting on the sofa to wait patiently for Angeline.
At the sight of Angeline's relaxed demeanor, while conversing on the phone, Yasmine snapped aphoto with her smartwatch and added Sean on WhatsApp using the number he had given her thenight before.
"Wow, Yasmine, are you all ready to go?" Angeline exclaimed upon seeing the neatly preparedYasmine.
Even her water bottle was filled and ready.
"You even prepared your water bottle!"
"Of course, I'm Mommy's cutest cub!"
Yasmine hopped off the sofa.
"Let's go!"
"Alright!" Angeline agreed as she patted Yasmine's head.
Angeline wasn't very familiar with Krontos, but she knew there was a flower market on the city'ssouthern outskirts. Due to its remote location, it wasn't crowded.
Robert had once found rare orchids there. Angeline planned to try her luck with Yasmine today.
Yasmine had helped Jessica with gardening before. So, even though she was not yet four years old,she moved through the flowers gracefully. She carefully picked each one.
Just as Yasmine called out, an elderly man lounging in a rocking chair set aside his newspaper tolook at the lively Yasmine. He smiled.
"Well, the little girl has quite the eye for beauty!"
