As soon as Jacob got into the car, he started the engine and started chasing after his daughter.
But he did not see the car she had gotten into just now after driving past two intersections. He frowned
and quickly sent a message out.
Soon, he received a text message. After he read it, he turned around and drove into the road beside.
Almost half an hour later, he found his daughter in a Western restaurant. There was another handsome
young man present other than Moira.
Bringing my daughter along during a date? A cold look flashed across Jacob’s eyes.
He spotted his daughter sitting at a side looking bored while the two young men and women chatted
happily. He frowned.
Jacob stopped his car and entered the restaurant.
“How many people, please?” A young waitress asked politely as soon as Jacob set foot into the
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtrestaurant.
He looked at his daughter, who was sitting a few tables away from him. He simply answered. “One.”
“Okay. Please come with me.” The waitress spoke gently and showed him the way.
Jacob looked in the direction where the waitress was headed and spoke solemnly. “I want to sit there.”
As soon as he finished speaking, he walked towards a table opposite his daughter.
“No problem, sir.” The waitress smiled gently.
When Jacob passed by their table, Moira did not respond. Perhaps she was too engrossed in her
conversation.
Jacob sat down and ordered a steak. Then, he turned around and waved at his daughter.
Heidi, playing with her cutleries alone, raised her head and saw that her father was not too far away.
She blinked twice in disbelief. Then, she pursed her lips and tilted her head to one side.
Jacob smiled. He took out the rose from the vase on his table.
He raised the rose at his daughter to attract her attention. Then, he gently tossed it while releasing a
gentle wave of energy into the air.
The rose floated in the air as if it was being held by an invisible palm. It did not fall nor touch the
ground.
Watching not far away, Heidi dropped her jaw and widened her eyes in awe.
Jacob felt delighted when he saw his daughter’s cute expression. He took another rose from the vase
and threw it into the air.
“Wow!”
When she saw the two bright red flowers twirling in the air like two playful red elves, she could no
longer hold herself back. She gasped out gently and stood up.
Her eyes darted back and forth. She secretly glanced towards her side and leaned forward against the
table. She wanted to get down from her seat.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmBecause it wasn’t peak hours, there weren’t many other customers in the restaurant. So Jacob’s magic
trick did not attract much attention.
Moira suddenly spotted Heidi’s actions while she was still chatting with the young man.
She picked her glass of water on the table and turned to Heidi. She spoke gently, “Heidi Buddy, your
steak will be served soon. Don’t run around.”
Heidi, whose legs were already on the ground, sighed. Then, she sat back on her chair, embarrassed.
“Come on, the steak will be delicious!” Moira smiled and looked away.
Suddenly, she widened her eyes. A flash of anger was evident on her delicate face.
“Moira, what’s wrong?” The young man spotted Moira’s change of expression.
“Oh, it’s nothing. I just remembered something at work.” Moira simply nodded and created an excuse.
Shit. He almost found out.
When Jacob saw Moira’s hateful gaze, he quickly sat up straight.
