However, here, she raised her brows, and covered her mouth, “Look at me. I don’t consider this aspect. Then, you should raise it by three times. Previously, she worked for Antony and looked after Paddy. That kid also likes her very much. For the sake of the previous relationship, so, I decide to pay her more.”
Manager Lin nodded quickly. He respected his cousin more, she’s gentle and generous, also kind-hearted. No wonder she could conquer Antony’s heart.
Since Helen’s resignation wasn’t accepted, she felt a bit uncomfortable. But, when she thought of Gao Wen’s behavior just now, and thought of Manager Lin, she warned herself to avoid them in the future.
On Saturday, Helen woke up early because she had promised to accompany Paddy today.
“Helen, we’re arriving in two minutes. Please be prepared.”
There’s a notification on WeChat. She opened it and it was Paddy. She smiled, then replied, “Okay, I’ll be ready right away.”
Seeing a luxury car was parked not far from the entrance of the alley, Helen’s mood strangely improved.
“Paddy” She opened the door and got in the car, as she called his name.
Her lively tone made her sounded happy.
It’s just…
Why is Antony here? He was also at the backseat and Paddy was sitting between them.
“Mr….Davis” She nodded awkwardly.
Antony raised his brows, “Hm”, as he answered lightly.
Helen definitely couldn’t say anything towards someone who spoke less like him. She thought that it was fortunate that Paddy didn’t inherit this trait.
“Helen, actually I planned to go alone with you. But, my Daddy said that he’s bored and he looked pitiful. That’s why I brought him along.” Paddy explained to Helen after she sat down.
Liu Xu’s hand that was holding the steering wheel in front flinched. Antony was bored?
Yeah, right. He is very bored. It had been discussed clearly, today there’s an important acquisition in the company that needed to be approved. When he called early in the morning, he said that he wanted to accompany Paddy shopping.
He also sighed. His fatherly love is overwhelming indeed.
At this moment, he curled his lips. He clearly had an ulterior motive!
Helen, of course, didn’t believe Paddy’s nonsense. How could such a dignified CEO be bored?
She lightly flicked his forehead, “You… Your father is a busy man. If you need to go anywhere, let me know. Don’t always pester your father, okay?”
“Hm, you mean that you don’t like seeing my Dad?”
Antony closed the book on his hands and shifted his gaze towards Helen.
This kid! Did she mean it that way? Well, there might be a little bit….
After all, she would be under pressure to go shopping with such an important person.
“What? Do you have complaints regarding me, Ms. Brown?” Since that incident, this man had been calling her this way.
“No, to be able to go out with Mr. Davis… is such a blessing.” Helen noticed that, recently, she had started to lie uncontrollably.
But, could she control it after seeing his gaze?
“That’s good…” Antony curled his lips to her reply. He seemed to be satisfied with the answer and looked at his book again.
Helen felt that she had experienced his shamelessness again.
“Paddy, have you thought where do you want to go?” In order to ease the awkwardness inside the car, Helen changed the topic and talked with Paddy.
“Let’s go shopping for clothes for me, my Dad, and you, okay?” Paddy replied without thinking about it.
“Go shopping for clothes?” Helen subconsciously hugged her bag tighter, “I don’t need to buy it. I’ll just accompany you.” is he joking? With such a salary, how could she accompany both father and son to shop for clothes?
Finally, Liu Xu stopped in front of a shopping mall.
“Liu Xu, seems like we can’t park here, right?” Helen reminded him kindly.
Liu Xu turned around and glanced at her, “Ms. Brown, it’s fine since it belongs to our company.”
He said it lightly and Helen gulped.
After getting off the car, she looked at the sight in front of her, opened her mouth, but couldn’t say anything.
Her eyes looked shocked.
The mall was located at the seaside of C City. It was about four stories high, however it was so wide that the end couldn’t be seen. It had a three-dimensional shape with a bold design and it had all artistic sense. But, seeing the high-end advertisement in front, Helen realized that she couldn’t afford this kind of place.
She couldn’t help but lower her head, looked at her clothes, and suddenly felt very shabby. But fortunately, she didn’t beg for anything, and also she was very calm.
“Helen, what are you looking at. Let’s go…” Paddy realized that Helen was in a daze. He stepped forward and pulled her.
“Paddy, you Dad is very rich!” Listening to Liu Xu’s tone, this property was just the tip of the iceberg.
Paddy tilted his head and looked at Helen, “Helen, how is it? Have you fallen for my Dad yet?”
Helen admired the boy’s character, then she shook her head, “Don’t talk nonsense anymore. I have never thought of marrying for money. If I really want to marry someone in the future, I’ll marry someone who will stay with me forever, either in poverty or wealth, in sickness and in health, until death do us apart.” Instead of someone like his father, who left her mother not long after she was diagnosed with cancer, without giving any reason, she added in her heart.
Antony, who was standing nearby, quivered slightly.
“Oh, I didn’t expect that this little nanny….” Liu Xu and Antony walked side by side, naturally, he also heard Helen’s feeling. But before he finished speaking, Antony glared at him, and he hurriedly changed his words, “Ms. Brown… is such a breath of fresh air!”
After finished speaking, he rolled his eyes toward the person in front of him. He clearly said that not long ago. He really is more inconsistent than women.
“Good day, Mr. Davis!” As soon as they arrived at the entrance, a group of people in uniform bowed to them.
With that behavior, Helen almost pulled Paddy since they entered.
Didn’t they say earlier that they are going to shop for clothes?
Why is there such a big grandeur?
“Helen, you hold onto me. There are a lot of exits here. Don’t get lost.” As Paddy spoke, he grabbed Helen’s hand tightly.
Helen looked down at him and her face was full of smile.
At this moment, she sincerely thanked her mother for bringing Paddy into this world.
“Daddy, hold my hand, okay?” Paddy suddenly said.
Antony stopped, looked at him, stretched out his hand, and held his hand.
Then, a strange scene appeared in the mall.
An extraordinarily handsome man was holding an unusually good looking boy. But the boy’s hand was holding an ordinary and unattractive woman.
The man was smiling at the boy and the boy was smiling at the woman.
Many years later, when the three of those dazzling people appear and hold hands again at this place, they will think of today, which was warm and sweet.
