Chapter 223 How Excellent Daniel's Gene Was
Many people fished their mobile phones out of their pockets, took photos of their every single moves, while also posting them on the internet. They were all wondering who the mother of the girl in his arms actually was.
Melissa took a bite out of the cake, and again, in a pathetic way, said, "Daddy, can we call mommy now?"
It was the first time that she had been separated from her mother for such a long time.
Daniel considered this for a second and nodded. He was willing to do anything for his daughter!
He put Melissa's leftover food back into the bag, and then he took out his mobile phone to call Janet.
Janet had just bathed Michelle and had taken her to her parents' room. She was about to go and talk to Sally when her phone started ringing.
Seeing that the call was coming from Daniel, Janet quickly became morose.
'How stupid I was to fall in love with you!
From now on, we have nothing to do with each other!'
After the phone rang for a long time, she finally answered it.
"Hello." Her indifferent voice made Daniel instantly frown.
"Janet, did you live together with Caspar when you were in Z Country?"
Janet was confused as to why Daniel would mention about Caspar all of a sudden.
Not hearing Janet's answer, Daniel turned a cold voice, and said, "Humph! If you don't answer me, I'll take your silence as a yes."
Janet then came back to her senses, and casually said, "That's none of your business!"
"How could it be none of my business? You are the mother of my child, and your obscene private life will have a bad impact on my image!"
Only God knew how much Janet wanted to scream at him, "That's none of your business! You jerk!"
She told herself to be calm, and continued, "Have you called me just to pick on me? If so, I'm hanging up the phone now!"
Daniel said nothing, but handed the phone over to Melissa.
Then he raised Melissa, who was talking with her mommy on the phone, in his arms, taking no notice of the many people who were following them.
None of them dared to accost Daniel. There were only two young girls asking for a photo with him, but they were quickly scared away by his horrifying poker face. "Mommy, I miss you very much."
Hearing daughter's lovely voice, Janet turned a tender tone, "Baby, are you happy with Daddy?"
"Yes. Mommy, do you miss me?" Melissa asked as she hooked her free arm around Daniel's neck.
It was wonderful to have a daddy who would hold her high in his arms and grant all her wishes and desires!
"Yes, of course mommy misses you, my darling baby. When will you come back? How about mommy picking you up?" Hearing Janet's tender voice, Daniel wished he could teleport to Janet and kiss her. "Daddy, when will we go back to Mommy?" asked Melissa, as she tilted her head and stared at Daniel with her cute big eyes.
"Well, it all depends on how your mommy behaves."
...
Hearing what Daniel had just said, Janet couldn't help but roll her eyes in her head.
"Mommy, daddy says that if you behave well, then we'll come back soon," said Melissa naively. Shit!
It sounded like that she was a troublesome kid!
"Good for you, Daniel!" muttered Janet to herself. She decided to hit back, "Baby, why are you eager to come back? There must be many beautiful aunties looking after you and daddy. Don't you like it there?" Janet guessed that Daniel had also taken Shirley with him on his business trip. Shirley had tried every trick in the book to earn Daniel's affection.
Melissa thought to herself, 'Beautiful aunties... There are, indeed, many beautiful aunties in daddy's company, and they are all nice to me.' "Yes, mommy! There are many beautiful aunties that buy me snacks!" said Melissa excitedly.
'Shit! There must be bitches trying every means to ingratiate themselves with Melissa to get closer to Daniel!' Janet thought.
Daniel arched his eyebrows, and said, "Baby, which auntie do you like most? How about letting her become your new mommy?"
Hearing Daniel's words, Janet felt like she was about to explode with the anger building inside her.
Luckily, her baby daughter was on her side. Melissa shook her head immediately, and said, "No! Daddy, I want mommy! Can you bring her to our home?" Daniel slightly lifted his lips?and nodded.
But Janet couldn't see it. She thought that Daniel had deliberately evaded the question so as not to break Melissa's heart.
"All right, dear, you'd better go to bed early. Mommy is going to talk to your auntie now," said Janet in a low-spirited voice. "Mommy, can I also talk to auntie?"
"Yes. Wait a minute, dear."
Janet answered her while she was walking towards Sally's room. Jerry hadn't been back from the company yet, and there was only Sally in the room, playing on her iPad on the bed. Seeing Janet, Sally seemed to be excited. She got up and handed the iPad to Janet, and said, "Jane, Jane! Look! Daniel and Melissa are at the mall. Their photos flood the screen now." Janet took the iPad while she passed her mobile to Sally. "Hi, brother!"
"Auntie, it's me!" Hearing Melissa's voice, Sally became even more excited, and said, "My little baby, do you miss me?" Twins were super cute. She was going to have a physical examination a few days later. She wished she had carried twin girls too.
"Yes! Auntie, daddy and I are in the mall. There are a lot of people following us." As she said this, Melissa turned around and saw the fans that were following and taking pictures of her and her daddy.
She wasn't scared at all of them, on the contrary, she actually put on a sweet smile for the fans.
Her lovely smile stole fans' hearts away in a breeze.
Many of them screamed excitedly, "She's so cute! How excellent Daniel's gene is!"
"Yes, just look at her smile! It's so sweet!"
"Her mother must be a beauty too!"
More and more fans surged into the mall and followed them.
The managers of the mall had no other choice but to ask for more security guards to maintain order.
Sally said, "Auntie knows this. I saw your photos on the Internet. My dear, when will you come back? Auntie will come and pick you up."
She then pulled Janet aside on the bed, who was completely absorbed in reading the netizen's comments.
"Auntie, daddy just said that it depends on how well mommy behaves." Daniel walked into a boutique and put Melissa down.
Stepping on the floor, Melissa scooted to pick gifts.
Sally slipped to the balcony, and in a low voice instructed her, "Baby, listen to me. You just praise your mommy in front of your daddy and commend your daddy in front of your mommy. Only this way will daddy and mommy be soon back together!"
Melissa nodded while staring at an elephant plush toy.
Melissa all of a sudden changed the subject, and asked, "Auntie, do you want an elephant?"
Confused, Sally asked, "What?"
"A stuffed elephant. How about I ask daddy to buy you and mommy a pair of stuffed elephants?" Amused by Melissa's naiveté, Sally couldn't help but giggle at her niece's words. ☐☐☐☐☐
