SWNOVELS Chapter 160
Chapter 160
Edith got out of bed in a hurry and rushed straight to the living room without even putting on her shoes.
Carlos was not in the living room.
He was not in the dining room.
He was not in the kitchen…
There was no sign of him on the first floor.
Like an abandoned doll, she tasted the bitterness of the past again.
“Bastard, didn’t you say you wouldn’t leave me behind? Why are you going back on your word now?”
Edith cursed aggrievedly. She was in a bad mood early in the morning. Later, she squatted on the ground awkwardly and cried with her hands covering her face.
At this moment, Carlo’s clear voice suddenly came from behind her.
“So… you want to see me so badly?”
When Edith heard the familiar voice, her eyes widened, and she quickly turned around.
On the stairs stood a familiar figure.
She couldn’t hold back her excitement anymore. She rushed over and hugged him tightly.
“Don’t leave me alone again. I’m really scared…”
She said in a crying and aggrieved tone, with her voice trembling.
Carlos felt her soft body and trembling shoulders.
For the first time, he truly felt that this girl needed his protection, company, and care…
She looked strong, but in fact, she was fragile and sensitive. Her heart was extremely delicate and clear.
Carlos decided that he would protect his lovely wife well in the future.
He patted her gently on the back to calm her down and comforted her repeatedly. “Don’t worry. I won’t leave you again. I won’t let you worry anymore.”
When Edith heard this, she cried so hard that she couldn’t speak. All she could do was nod repeatedly.
Her parents had abandoned her, which had left a scar on her forever.
Later, she was dumped by the Meyer family.
Johann abandoned her.
Simon deserted her.
Now, only Carlos was good to her. If he abandoned her, where would she go?
She would be homeless!
Carlos took her back to the room, helped her put on her shoes, and said, “I have no work today. I’ll take you out for a walk. Today, I belong to you completely. I’ll do whatever you say as compensation, okay?”
Edith recovered from her grief. When she heard that he would take her out to play, her eyes couldn’t help lighting up.
Her bright eyes were so adorable that he couldn’t help looking at them.
She held his hand tightly. It seemed that she was afraid that he would go back on his word. “Really? You can’t lie to me, you know!”
Chapter 160
“Don’t worry. As an adult, I never lie to children!”
Hearing this, Edith twitched her nose.
“Well! You’re only seven years older than me. Is that even worth mentioning?”
“Is this worth being proud of, Carlos?”
Of course, she only dared to voice this internally. It would be dreadful if he heard it for real.
After they were ready, they went out. Carlos drove her around Caurtine.
They went to the amusement park first. Edith had never had such a chance to play heartily since childhood.
Glenn used to bring her and Vanessa here often, but he and his daughter usually played all kinds of games together, while Edith was like an extra person who couldn’t play anything without her parents‘ company.
Edith was envious of Vanessa, who had a father at that time, while she lost her parents.
Growing up, she never came here to play because Johann thought it childish, and Sarah had no time.
She could only look forward to the amusement park.
Today, Carlos only belonged to her. Naturally, she would arrange him well.
In the past, she did everything alone, but she had someone to accompany her so she would not have any regrets.
Edith consciously took care of Carlos. Considering that he had just recovered and was still very weak, all the exciting activities had been rejected. She liked to play bumper cars very much. At the huge venue, her car collided with his vehicle. She felt the feeling of happiness was probably just a bang.
Carlos doted on her very much. He held her little hand and bought her rabbit ear headbands, colored balloon, cotton candy,
and ice cream.
He took a puppy made of balloons from the clown to send her.
From beginning to end, he held her hand and led her through the crowd.
She would never be abandoned again and feel lonely.
Someone was escorting her…
Someone was spoiling her….
Someone loved her….
She felt thrilled!
After walking around the amusement park in the morning, Edith wanted to go home to cook. She said that cooking at home
was economical.
Then Edith pulled Carlos to the supermarket. He thought she would buy ingredients, but she stepped on the trolley, entered the supermarket, and ran straight to the snack area, ignoring him..
Looking at her running away, Carlos couldn’t help but laugh.
She was indeed a foodie.
The shopping cart was full of snacks when he caught up with her.
“Can you eat that much?” He couldn’t help but ask.
“Of course, I can. Don’t look down on me! I’ve decided to watch the TV series with you after lunch! I’ve been busy with my work and entertaining you and haven’t watched my favorite TV series for a long time. Now that I’m finally free, I should reward myself!”
“And I’ve paid. I’ll pay for all of them!”
Chapter 160
She patted her chest and said generously.
Carlos pulled her little hand and said, “This is my territory. Be careful not to spend all your salary again.”
Edith was instantly embarrassed. She felt that if he continued to flirt with her like this, her face would turn red many times a day.
She broke free from his grip and continued to look for her favorite snacks. She asked him, but he had never eaten these snacks. He said that he had never eaten junk food.
Hearing this, Edith looked at him sympathetically.
She patted him heavily and said, “Carlos, your childhood must have been so boring. You haven’t eaten so many delicious snacks. It’s sad! Fortunately, you met me. I will make your life perfect.”
While Carlos heard this, a faint smile appeared on his face.
He would never have considered such junk food if he hadn’t met her.
His life wouldn’t have been so enjoyable if he hadn’t met her. It was also the first time he knew he could spend such a colorful time without work!
In the past, he always felt that going to the amusement park was too childish, and only children went there. Now he discovered that he didn’t find the right person to go with. With the right person, every little thing they did brought him a different kind of happiness!
As they walked, the supermarket broadcasted a notice to look for the child and reminded the adults to take good care of the children around them in case they got lost.
As soon as the broadcast stopped, Carlos held her little hand tightly, which confused her.
She looked up at him in confusion.
“Didn’t you hear what was said on the radio? The adult should hold the child’s hand in case the child gets lost.”
Carlos kept looking at the shelf so he did not see her dazed expression.
His words were like a warm current flowing through her limbs and bones.
