Chapter 8 Candy Cried
Chapter 8 Candy Cried
Children's calmness was more or less pretended.
When Edmond saw such a big car crashing straight into him, he was shocked.
When the front of the car touched his leg, Edmond's lips turned pale.
It hurt.
The little girl stopped the toy car, so Edmond wasn't seriously injured.
Edmond looked up, seeing the little girl get out of the car.
She was like a real princess.
Her facial features were exquisite.
And her cheeks were a little chubby.
Especially her big eyes were filled with energy.
...
When Edmond was abroad, all his friends were foreigners.
Seeing such a delightful Chinese girl, he swallowed all his complaints.
The girl looked quite cute.
"I'm sorry."
The little girl apologized. Her pair of big eyes seemed to contain starlight.
She would not fail to win other's affection.
However, Edmond was a little arrogant. He snorted, "Don't drive without a driver's license. You were so
careless. Now that you hit me, an apology is definitely not enough."
When Candy heard it, her eyes immediately turned red with anxiety, "This is just a toy car."
After a pause, she added, "We are both children. Children can't take the driver's license exam."
"Since you know that you're a child, you can't drive."
"But this is a toy car."
"You've injured me."
Candy paused. She blinked her eyes pitifully and took two steps forward. She reached out her hand Text © owned by NôvelDrama.Org.
and pulled Edmond's clothes gingerly. Then she said softly, "Does it hurt? I'll give you some sweets."
As Candy spoke, she took out a toffee sweet from her pocket and offered it to Edmond like a treasure.
"The candy is especially delicious and sweet, just like my name. I'm Candy. What's your name?"
"I don't like sweets."
Edmond showed slight disgust. "Look at you. Your front teeth are all gone. You must have had a lot of
candy. You are ugly."
"...."
Candy's eyes were wide open. It was probably the first time she had been called an ugly girl.
She felt wronged, and her big eyes seemed to be wet.
"You...."
She seemed to be on the verge of tears.
Girls were really troublesome.
Edmond thought to himself. Holding back his anger, he whispered, "Forget it. I don't feel any pain. Be
careful."
Candy's eyes lit up in a flash.
She seemed to want to say something else, but not far away came waves of shouts, "... Miss Candy,
where are you?"
Edmond also heard it. Probably because he noticed Candy's strange expression, he raised his small
eyebrows and asked, "Are they looking for you?"
Candy nodded meekly. "Can you give me your contact information? I'm so sorry for bumping into you
today. I'll share ice cream with you next time."
"Don't eat such sweet things as candy or ice creams, or you will become fat." Edmond taught her like
an adult.
"Is that true? I will eat fewer sweet snacks. By the way, what's your name?"
'My name is Edmond....'
Edmond held his tongue. Suddenly he thought of something and changed the topic. "If we are destined
to meet again, I will tell you."
Edmond felt that he was as cool as that handsome middle-aged uncle!
When Hendrix finally found his nephew, Edmond, he discovered that Edmond was standing beside a
huge toy car.
Hendrix blamed. "Edmond, you must tell uncle when you walk away next time. If you run around like
this, I will be frightened."
Edmond pointed at the toy car. "A girl forgot to take this toy car with her."
"Where is she?" Hendrix was shocked.
"Her family took her away." Edmond thought of the scene he had just seen. Candy should be from a
wealthy family.
However, the woman holding Candy was not particularly good-looking.
She was far less beautiful than Edmond's mom.
Moreover, that woman was impatient. When she saw Candy, she accused Candy of running around.
She was fierce!
"Then what about this stuff?" Hendrix glanced at the toy car and said, "It looks like it's worth a lot. I
think that girl will come back to find it. Let's put it in the lost property."
Edmond followed his uncle and put the toy car in the hospital's lost property.

When Everly arrived at the hospital, she couldn't help but sigh.
Unexpectedly, as soon as she returned home, her father happened to have an operation.
For so many years in the United States, of course, Everly had been missing her family.
However, when she really came back, she felt a little timid.
Everly's family was quite well-off.
Her father, Parrish, was an engineering designer when he was young.
Her mother, Gloria, was a doctor.
When Hendrix was in school, he didn't like studying and always got into a fight.
Later on, Parrish sent him to an army. After a few years of training, Hendrix was a bit different.
After returning home, Hendrix began to create his own business. Now, his career had been on the up
and up.
Because the Farley family was rich, Everly's premarital pregnancy threw a great blow to her parents.
At that time, Parrish strongly opposed it and asked his daughter to abort the child.
Everly firmly refused and secretly escaped from the country.
It had indeed not been easy for Everly to raise her son in the past few years.
However, she persevered even though she looked so weak.
Everly braced herself up.
No matter what, she had to face it since she had returned.
They were her family.
Everly was afraid that Parrish would not like Edmond. But when she arrived at the door of the ward,
laughter filled the room.
Parrish's voice was filled with energy and could be heard clearly through the door.
"Baby, you speak Mandarin very fluently. Who taught you that?"
Then Edmond's crisp voice sounded. "My mommy, of course."
"You should call her mom. You have grown up."
Edmond remained silent.
Soon, Everly heard another gentle female voice. She knew that it was her mother's.
"Parrish, Edmond is still a little kid. Don't be so strict."
Parrish snorted as proudly as ever.
Everly stood at the door and couldn't help but laugh.
She shouldn't have been worried that her family would reject Edmond.
Inside, Parrish asked, "Where's your mom?"
Hendrix said, "I guess she is coming."
As soon as he finished speaking, Everly pushed open the door and entered.
On the hospital bed, Parrish, who was like an old naughty boy, saw his daughter, and his eyes lit up.
He then snorted and lay down.
Everly was rendered speechless.
