Chapter 6
Eric didn’t even know how he drove back to the Sunshine Villa.
When they got off the car, Erika saw him and felt sorry for him, letting out a sigh. She put her chubby hand on his shoulder and tried to comfort him, sounding like an adult. "As an old saying goes, you can't make an omelet without breaking eggs. Now that you’ve lost five million, something good will definitely happen in your life. Don’t be too sad."
As if he found a straw to clutch at, Eric looked anxiously at Erika with imploring eyes. "little lady Joanna, can you figure it out for me? I don’t want anything good in my life to happen. I just want my five million back!"
Sebastian called Eric’s name warningly as soon as Eric said that. Obviously, Sebastian was annoyed.
Sebastian buttoned up Erika’s coat for her slowly. His fingers looked so fair and slender against those green buttons.
Sebastian didn’t say anything, but Eric came to his senses. Original from NôvelDrama.Org.
"I’m sorry, Mr. Grant." Eric dropped his eyes. "I was too upset just now. That won’t happen again."
Eric was too distressed to think straight now. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have gone so far as to believe little lady Joanna would be able to solve his problem.
This was nothing but a coincidence!
Thinking so, Eric opened the door for Sebastian and Erika at once before driving away.
Erika stared at the car for a while and looked back at the building in front of her.
"Let’s go," Sebastian said in a low voice.
Erika, however, stood still and was unwilling to go. "I can sense the gloom in the house, and I don’t want to get in."
Something ominous would happen if she got into that gloomy house!
"The gloom? What do you mean?" Sebastian knit his brows.
Erika pointed at somewhere not far away and explained, "There. It comes from there."
Sebastian looked in the direction Erika was pointing at, only to see a sexy and glamorous figure in the hallway.
Meanwhile, Erika was pointing at the middle of her eyebrows.
"That’s your mom," said Sebastian.
Erika blinked her beautiful little eyes and felt a little sorry for Sebastian. "Then she must be your wife, right? I feel sorry for you. I didn’t know you actually married such a vixen."
Sebastian looked down at Erika and nodded, amusement gleaming in his narrowed eyes. "You’re right."
The two weren’t talking in a loud voice, but the woman had heard each word of their conversation.
And now she was livid!
Her fingers tightened into fists, her well polished nails digging into her palms.
Simmering with rage, Bella wished she could strangle Joanna, Bonnie’s child!
However, Bella needed to take advantage of Joanna to keep her feet in 薄家, so she managed to hold back her anger.
Then she recovered herself, put on a smile and came up to them.
"little Joanna, what are you talking about with your dad?" Bella asked in a gentle tone, wanting to play the loving wife and mother.
Erika, nevertheless, drew back immediately, distancing herself from Bella. She stared at Bella in disdain and disgust. Even if Joanna had treated Bella this way for years, she still got upset, because it was her who had taken care of Joanna all the time, but the little girl never liked her. Instead, she always put her on the spot and embarrassed her.
Just as what she was doing now.
"Handsome… Dad, let’s get into the house. It’s cold outside," Erika said.
Sebastian nodded, picked Erika up and walked into the house, leaving Bella alone.
She was completely ignored.
