Chapter 368
Alyssa could not help but laugh. She reached out to touch the little girl’s hair gently and asked her, "Do you still remember me?"
The little girl nodded and directly threw herself into Alyssa arms. She said with grievance, "I'm looking for Empett. . ."
Alyssa was a little stunned by this sudden hug.
The cute little girl in her arms was hugging her neck and looking at her with a look of dependence.
Did children nowadays trust others so easily?
Women had no resistance to cute things, let alone a cute and obedient little girl.
The little girl spoke too quickly. Alyssa did not understand what she said and asked. "Who are you talking about?"
"Empett." Angela said it again seriously.
Alyssa was stupefied for a moment, before she realized that the girl was actually talking about Emmett. She laughed and asked, "What's your name?"
"Angela." Angela said honestly.
Seeing that Angela was so honest and answered whatever she asked, Alyssa could not help but feel a little worried for her.
How could a daughter raised by a wealthy family like the Lawrence family be so honest? She should be smarter.
Alyssa carried her up and asked her, "Did you come with your father?"
Angela shook her head.
Alyssa was a little troubled. Where would she take Angela to look for Emmett?
She should go to the Lawrence Group.
But she did not know where the Lawrence Group was.
Even if she did, she might not be able to see Emmett.
At this moment, they happened to pass a restaurant. There were pictures of fries on the billboard outside the restaurant.
Angela's eyes lit up as she pointed at the fries and shouted, "Fries!"
Alyssa could tell that she wanted to eat the fries. It was already time to eat, so Alyssa carried her in.
She did not know how to find Emmett and the rest of the Lawrence family, so she decided to bring Angela to eat first.
Alyssa ordered some potato chips for Angela, followed by fried rice and soup.
Alyssa had never taken care of a child before, so she took a spoon and was about to feed Angela, but in the blink of an eye, she saw Angela already picked up her own chopsticks and was about to eat.
Her left hand formed a small fist and placed it on the table. Her right hand held the chopsticks in a standard manner. She opened her mouth and moved closer to the side of the bowl, quickly putting the rice into her mouth.
However, she was still young. In the end, half of the rice that she had put into her mouth spilled onto the ground and the side of her mouth was covered with rice grains.
Feeling that Angela was so cute, Alyssa had a smile on her face unconsciously. She got a waiter to bring a small bowl of soup and stirred it with a spoon. When the soup became a little cooler, she would give it to Angela to drink.
In the past, when she saw the children from other families having meals, she felt that it was especially cute. Furthermore, Angela herself looked like a doll in a painting. Alyssa felt that she did not even need to eat and could only look at Angela to be full.
Alyssa tasted it herself and felt that the soup was already ready to be eaten. She scooped up a spoonful and fed it to Angela's mouth. She gently said, "Eat slowly and drink some soup."
Angela listened to her and drank the soup in a single mouthful before continuing to eat.
Alyssa sat beside Angela and watched for a long time. But she did not eat much.
When Angela was almost done eating, Alyssa asked the waiter to bring the chips up.
Children all loved this kind of snack but they could not eat too much. When Angela was full, she could not eat much of the potato chips. After that, she only took the potato chips and dipped them in tomato sauce to play.
Seeing that she had eaten and drank enough, Alyssa asked her, "Where are we going to find your father?"
Alyssa was actually just casual saying and did not think that Angela would know.
However, in the next moment, Angela passed the small doll that she had been carrying to Alyssa, "Call him."
Alyssa looked at the doll that she handed over. It was a pink and blue tiger doll. It was very cute.
She took it over and asked Angela, "Should I use this to call him?"
"Yes." Angela hurriedly nodded and looked at her expectantly.
Alyssa looked at the little tiger doll in her hand and her expression was troubled. Content from NôvelDr(a)ma.Org.
She thought that perhaps Emmett used this little tiger to tease Angela at home.
Thinking like this, she unconsciously pinched the little tiger toy a few times. As a result, she touched a hard object.
Alyssa pinched again and confirmed that there was something inside the doll. She stretched out her hand and pulled the zipper on the back of the doll. She took out a small piece of wood from the cotton.
A name and a string of numbers were clearly engraved on the piece of wood.
"Empett?" Alyssa read the name on the wooden block.
When Angela heard her voice, she tilted her head and said, "You are calling my father."
Alyssa took the small piece of wood and asked Angela, "Was your father who stuffed it into the cub?”
"Yes, my father's number." Angela nodded happily.
Alyssa was stunned for a moment.
She remembered the brief glimpse she had on the day she was discharged.
It was hard to imagine a man with such an imposing manner would do such a considerate and small thing. Moreover, he would even engrave the word "Empett" on it.
From this, it could be seen that Emmett loved his daughter very much.
She thought that Emmett was a very cold person.
Alyssa looked outside the restaurant.
It had been so long, but no one came to find Angela.
Alyssa could only press Empett's number under Angela's expectant gaze.
After she pressed the phone number, she did not immediately dial it.
For some reason, she had an inexplicable feeling of fear.
She seemed to be. . . nervous?
Angela was already full. Seeing Alyssa holding the phone, she came over curiously and asked, "Did you make a phone call?"
"I'll call him right away." Alyssa reached out to touch Angela's head and dialed the number.
At the same time she dialed the number, Alyssa also turned on the speaker.
When she heard the sound of the phone dialing, Alyssa's heart also fiercely jumped.
This kind of inexplicable feeling had also appeared when she first saw Emmett on the day she was discharged from the hospital.
Angela heard the sound of the phone ringing and thought that the phone was connected, so she called out, "Daddy?"
Alyssa could not help but laugh, "Your dad has not answered the phone yet. Wait for a moment."
"Oh." Angela replied and stared at the phone screen eagerly. The look of anticipation in her eyes made
Alyssa's heart melt.
After the phone rang four times, a man's deep and pleasant voice came, "Who is it?"
His voice was slightly low and cold.
Angela recognized Emmett's voice in an instant. She hugged her phone and shouted excitedly, "Daddy!"
"Angela?" Unlike before, this “Angela” was clearly mixed with emotions.
"Yes, it's Angela. Daddy, where are you?" When Angela started to talk, she could not stop nagging.
Emmett listened quietly for a while on the other end of the phone. After confirming that Angela's voice sounded normal, he said in a deep voice, "Give the phone to the sister who called me."
Alyssa was a little surprised when she heard this. How did Emmett know that it was a sister who helped his daughter to call him?
