Chapter 5 Daddy
“Mrs. Thomas, no one will put a dress on feet.”
“I am your client, do as what I say!”
Kelly tilted her chin at her defiantly.
Hedy silenced for a while, and said agreeably, “Alright, Mrs. Thomas.”
She moved forwards and crouched in front of her. She held her ankle and said, “But we will charge you extra for the additional item. And the price is one million dollars.”
“What?”
She turned pale and stood up immediately.
But Hedy kept holding her ankle, so that she had no way but sat back to the couch.
Hedy continued, “Mrs. Thomas, now you are asking for SVIP service. It isn’t included in the contract.”
“One client needs to charge about 80 million dollars to enjoy SVIP service. But for my sake, you just need to pay 1 million dollars to get it. It’s so favorable, isn’t it?”
“Hedy, you...”
“Mrs. Thomas!”
Hedy interrupted her, “So your husband didn’t want to pay the price? Negative! He wouldn’t be that miserly!”
Kelly turned even paler. He felt unhappy about spending too much money on her party. If the dress cost too much, he might scold her.
But, if she had cold feet that moment, Hedy would look down upon her!
She wouldn’t let that happen!
She gnashes her teeth and said, “How can that be. He always complaint that I spent so little!”
“That’s perfect!”
Hedy kept smiling, acting like they were always strangers. And now for Hedy, she was just a client. Having the knowledge of it, Kelly felt so angry. She felt like being trapped by her, which cost the price of millions of dollars.
After leaving the measuring room, all the people outside were so surprised to see that Kelly was drained and burned out.
They all wanted to know what happened, then Hedy said,
“Jeffery, Mrs. Thomas asks for our SVIP service. The price is 1 million dollars. Please guide her to pay the bill.”
In front of the public, she could do nothing but pay the bill.
“Hedy Walker, I wish you a satisfying design for me!”
After paying the bills, she left with speaking the mean words.
“She’s gone too far. She is the first one who asked others to measure the feet for making a dress.”
They could hear the voice in the measuring room.
“Ms. Walker, you are amazing!”Content (C) Nôv/elDra/ma.Org.
“Yeah, yeah! She is so difficult to deal with!”
“I feel so pleasurable about her pale face when she paid the bill!”
“Hah Hah...”
All the people showed more respect to Hedy.
She was so powerful, no wonder the company will send her here to help.
“Mommy!”
Leo ran into her and embrace her so tightly.
“You are amazing!”
“Leo, why are you here?”
She looked at her watch, and found it was after-school time.
Jeffery said with shy smile, “Ms. Walker. I just heard a call from the kindergarten, because you were busy just now, so I went to pick Leo up.”
“Oh, come on, say thank you to Jeffery.”
Hedy held Leo in her arms, kissed his cheek and felt all the tiresomeness was removed.
“Thank you, Uncle Jeff!” Leo said.
Hedy afraid that he wouldn’t be happy about the title and was about to correct Leo. But Jeffery didn’t care about that, “It’s OK. I asked for that.”
Because the work time wasn’t over, Hedy left Leo enjoy himself in the office and she had to go on working.
She knew about Kelly. From then on, she would try her best to trouble her. Thanks to her preparation on design before she came back here, now she only needed to choose some of the templates and modified to meet Kelly’s need.
Leo was a cute and smart boy, so he earned much fondness from all the people.
And he was a sensible boy too. He felt so sad seeing Hedy so tired.
He passed her a cup of coffee, and said, “Mommy, just take a break.”
“Thank you! My boy!”
Hedy touched his head, looking at him with great affection.
Leo muttered, “If daddy was here, you wouldn’t be so hard like that.”
Hedy was a little shocked, embracing him, and said, “Don’t you remember, Leo? Your daddy was busy working, and he couldn’t be with us this moment.”
“What’s more, Mommy loves this job so much, I don’t think it’s hard.”
Leo didn’t say a word. After a while, enjoying the warm embrace of her mother, he said to her determinedly, “Mommy, I will make you so happy!”
“You are my happiness, Leo!”
Hedy kissed his cheek again, and said, “Would you like to have some fun with Jeffery? Mommy will take you home for dinner as soon as my work today is finished. Okay?”
“Alright, Mommy!” Leo agreed.
So, Jeffery took him to the playground. After saying goodbye to Hedy, he concentrated on playing the toy bricks and colorful balls. He asked Jeffery to go back to work politely and promised that he was fine to be alone.
Coincidently, Jeffery got a phone call from an important client, so he agreed and told him not to wander around by himself.
“Ok, please take your time, Uncle Jeff. I’m good to be alone.”
However, Leo started wandering off after he left.
Just for a little while, he ran to the Gretain Building, watching the grand building that belonged to the Moore Group with great passion.
So, Daddy was busy working in some unknown place, wasn’t he?
Now he was four years old. Hedy’s whtie lie cannot trick him..Leo understood that there must be some reason and his dad was a man with cold heart who had abandoned them for years. In that case, he’d better to find a man, the best one, to be his dad.
Leo decided to walk into the grand building.
