Chapter 217 The One in a Closet
“Alright, Take care of yourself, Momo.”
Morgan immediately smiled, “Okay Theo, I will be good!”
Theodore saw that it was getting late and went to stick on the door. Seeing there was no movement outside, he thought Donna should still be busy in the kitchen.
“I have to go now, you go out and take Donna somewhere else first, then I’ll go out through the door.”
“Got it!” Morgan ruffled her hair twice before walking to the door, “So I’m going out now, Theo?”
Theodore waved his hand, “Go ahead!” He should get home as soon as he could now as their mom would be home before long.
Morgan pushed open the door and walked out, going straight to the kitchen. She saw Donna cooking. Morgan thought for a little while and pulled on Donna’s apron to shake it twice.
“Gee, little miss, what are you doing here? What’s the matter?” Donna hurriedly wiped her hands with a towel while asking her with her head down.
Morgan’s eyes widened as she pulled Donna out of the kitchen.
“Miss, where are you going?”
This girl was usually too good to be true and she rarely dragged Donna to do something. Donna was a little curious for a moment. Morgan subconsciously glanced at her room and then pulled Donna towards the other side of the study, where there was a Barbie doll she left behind when she last visited daddy.
“Little miss, you want to go to the young master’s study?”
Morgan hurriedly smiled and nodded. The study and her bedroom were in two directions entirely, so Theodore could sneak out of Donna’s sight. Donna had no idea what she wanted to do. Thinking that this girl would not rummage through anything if she was there with her, she unscrewed the door of the study and walked into with her, “Miss, there is nothing to play with in here. Are you looking for something?”
Meanwhile, Theodore had peeked out. The living room was quiet, and the sound of talking came faintly from the direction of the other side. He wordlessly praised Morgan in his heart.
Theodore did not linger too much longer and ran directly towards the door. Reaching the door handle, his face flashed with a hint of triumph and he opened the door. But before he could run outside, he was blocked by a wall of flesh.
Theodore looked upwards and got a chill in his heart.
It was Sion!
How came he would have come back at this hour?
Theodore made a quick decision, turned his head and ran back. Sion was going to stop him, but before he opened his mouth, he watched the little one close the door again with a bang.
“What is she up to today?” Sion got confused.
Then he reached out and pressed his fingerprint to unlock the door again and walked in.
After Theodore closed the door, he hid in a hurry and went back to Morgan’s room, covering his chest, feeling like his heart was racing wildly.
There was a Donna over there, and a bad dad over there. Theodore felt he was being challenged like never before, and with a grit of his teeth, he hid in the closet where Morgan had been hiding.
Donna heard the door open in the study and pulled Morgan, who was fiddling with her Barbie doll, “Little miss, I’m going out to take a look.”
Morgan thought her brother should have left, so she went out with Donna. Just as she came out, he saw Sion changing his shoes.
“Sion, you’re home early today.”
Donna let go of Morgan’s hand, “I’m almost done cooking, there’s still a soup left. I’ll go make it now!”
Sion answered, lowering his eyes to look at the little girl holding a Barbie doll. His brows frowned for a moment. Unbelievably, the girl had changed her clothes in such a short time.
“Why did you run away when you see me at the door? Uh-huh?” He pinched Morgan’s little face gently with suspicion in his eyes.
Morgan smiled at him and reached out to take his hand, but she couldn’t help but worry about Theodore. Her brother had not gotten out of the house yet.
Sion did not wait for her answer since he thought she couldn’t speak, so he started talking about the day’s events.
“How did you get to the company today by yourself?”
Morgan blinked and bit her lip, thinking, “Theo must have taken a taxi. My brother is so smart, he can go out by himself. And of course, taking a taxi was not a difficult thing for him. He can do everything!”
Sion was amused by her inexplicably proud look and reached out to scratch the tip of her nose, “Feeling proud of yourself? Huh?”
He was a little distracted at the company because of her, so he came back earlier today to give her a lecture. And he was amused by this lovely little girl again.
Morgan saw that Sion did not look angry, so she quietly exhaled a breath. If Sion pursued the matter to the end, she didn’t know what she should do, because she had no idea what her brother had done.Material © NôvelDrama.Org.
“I won’t bother with you this time, but if you’re still so naughty next time, I’ll have to punish you.”
His tone was a little helpless. He was rather surprised that “she” would have been so playful as to put so much glue on his chair. Children’s pranks could not be taken seriously, but they needed to bear safety awareness in mind.
Morgan nodded obediently, and she decided to stop her brother’s trick in the future if he went too far, since she didn’t want to make Sion mad at them.
Sion finished his words, and his gaze rested on her clothes. Seeing him frowning, Morgan’s heart was pounding. She remembered that Theodore was wearing clothes of a similar colour to hers. “Daddy shouldn’t find anything wrong.” She thought.
“These clothes don’t look good, let’s go change.”
Sion’s suspicion had not been dispelled. He held the little girl’s hand and tried to get to the bedroom. He knew Morgan could dress well by herself and possibly she had changed her clothes without being noticed. But when he saw her at the company today, he found the clothes on her today were not her daily favourite style. He had to make sure.
Morgan was a little overwhelmed while being brought to her bedroom, worrying that Sion had found out something already. But she could not let Sion get in her room now, since her brother should be hiding in there. What if he runs right into Theodore this time?
She got more anxious not knowing what to do while they were approaching the bedroom.
“What’s wrong? Don’t want to change?”
Sion saw that she did not want to move and her face was somewhat gloomy, his heart softened.
“Are you worried that I will blame you?”
Then, he stroked Morgan’s little head, “Don’t worry, I said I wouldn’t pursue it this time, my word is my bond.”
Morgan believed him and she was so hesitant about stopping him from walking into her room. When she was still in a tangle, she had been led in by Sion.
Sion did not know what she was thinking about but he wanted to verify his suspicions.
“Come on, see if there is anything else you need. I will buy you some next time.”
