Chapter 1411
Once she said she had enough fun, she would never pick up the toy again.
John knew the little girl’s temper, and she said she had enough because she did not want to disturb him working.
He smiled and said, “Caprice, I’ll play with you again when I finish work, okay?”
Caprice’s eyes shone. “Mm–hmm, mm–hmm!”
John returned to his working desk.
Caprice grabbed her little toy and went to the corner of the office, where she had her own personal play area. The space was filled
with fluffy stuffed animals.
Since she was bored, she brought all the stuffed animals out and categorized them according to their looks.
Some time later, when John finally finished reading the documents, he went up to the girl and saw the neatly organized stuffed
animals in groups of three around her.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtHe smiled. He pointed at the pink little pig that was grouped with the yellow tiger and the red bunny, asking, “Caprice, why did you
put these three together?”
The little girl pointed at the pig and then the tiger. “This is me, this is you.”
John pointed at the bunny. “Who is this then?”
“Mommy.”
John pursed his lips.
A moment of silence later, he pointed at another group of stuffed animals. “Then, who are they?”
“Me, Daddy, and Mommy.”
Looking at the dozen groups of him, Caprice and Mommy, John was silenced.
A while later, when the girl finished grouping all the stuffed animals, she looked at him and asked, “Daddy, where is
that liar? Will she ever appear again?”
John narrowed his gaze. He smiled and said, “I caught her last night, but she’s too cunning and slippery. She
escaped.”
The girl pouted. “Fine.”
She was obviously disappointed.
John stroked her face. “Caprice, Daddy has finished working. Let’s play.”
The girl’s eyes shone and answered happily, “Yay!”
John’s gaze softened as he curled his lips.
Sherry had no idea why bodyguards nowadays were more
professional than ever. She had to run more than two street blocks to shake them off, and all the running
exhausted her.
It took her quite some time to recover her breath. When she did, she took a detour to sneak into Stockton Tower
again.
The day went by in the blink of an eye.
In the evening, John carried the little girl out of the office. She was asleep on his shoulder after a whole day
of playing.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmJohn steadily paced to his car, afraid that he would wake the little girl. He carefully put Caprice into the car before he looked
behind him. He saw a few passersby, the building security guard, and no one else.
Slightly disheartened, he went into the car.
The silver MPV’s engine roared to life.
Meanwhile, in the darkest corner of the parking lot, Sherry finally stood up after hiding for a while.
She pursed her lips. All that was in her mind now was Caprice’s adorable face while sleeping in the man’s arms. It was pointless to
continue hiding. Caprice barely knew her, so she had to think of a way to meet and talk to the girl.
It was then that a familiar figure came out from the building.
Sherry’s eyes flickered. She quickly headed to the side of the road.
Peter was planning his schedule for tomorrow while
heading out. His ride was already waiting for him by the road.
Right when he was about to get in, someone tapped his shoulder.
Startled, he turned around immediately, and when he saw the person, he nervously staggered backward.
He wore a polite smile and asked, “Ms. Flower, what brings you here?”
