Daddy, don't flirt

Chapter 407: Peek At You Secretly

If it is any other day, Jamie will have make a fuss after getting up, but last time she had knocked her knees on a rock, and it was very painful. Jamie is afraid of pain very much, it is like killing her. So her mouth starts to tremble as she is about to cry.

Since Ryan has secretly peeked at Jamie and Adele, he tries to find some chances to visit this kid too. In order to prevent Jack from discovering him, Adele has been hiding pretty well.

But unexpectedly Jack still sees them in the end, maybe because Ryan is still too young, Jack doesn’t take him away or force him to do anything. Instead, he secretly looks for Ryan’s only relative, which is Anna.

Ryan realizes that after he has been stealing glances at Jamie, he starts to have some interest in this kid. He would find every chance to visit her. The other day, he is able to complete the medicine ahead of time, so to reward himself, he decides to pay Jamie a visit again.

When he has just entered the courtyard, he sees that Jamie has stumbled to the ground, and it is not a minor injury. She is twitching her lips, preparing to cry.

Ryan scans his surroundings to make sure there are no other people present, only then he carefully tiptoes towards Jamie and for the first time appears in front of her.

He doesn’t know how to console a girl, because he has not been taught about this in the organization. Besides, the only girl in the organization would never cry even if she’s badly injured. So, Ryan is at a loss right now.

In a hurry, he produces a rabbit shaped toffee candy and gives it to her. He says gently, “Don’t cry, take this sweet.”

Jamie is able to stop herself from crying because of his voice. She is curious about this good-looking boy in front of her, as she stares at him with watery eyes.

Jamie who has been pestering Dan non-stop is still a naïve girl who is obsessed with handsome boys, so he can’t resist anyone who appears in front of her. She receives the candy while staring at Ryan and then proceeds to peel the wrapping and send the candy into her mouth.

After chewing for some time, Jamie only realizes that this candy is the type that she dislikes, but for the sake of the handsome boy in front of her, she is able accept this candy no matter how it tastes.

“Hi handsome boy, are you from the heavens?” Jamie flips around and sits on the ground without caring about dirtying her dress which was prepared by Adele. There are chumps of soil on her face, which makes her look like a cat.

Her pair of bright eyes are like crystals, they are translucent, which seems to overshadow and dazzle Ryan.

Perhaps he has been lingering in the darkness for too long, so he’s at a loss when he sees something so pure and bright.

“No, I came here by walking.” Ryan shakes his head in denial. He was born with a friendly face, and his smile resembles the sun, which radiates warmth to his surroundings, and put people around him at ease.

“Then where did you come from?” Jamie probes further while continuing chewing the candy before swallowing the toffee candy. Her mouth is now filled with a faint sweetness, which causes her to twitch her nose.

Ryan doesn’t know how to reply her, as he can’t reveal to her that he’s actually staying in the same house as her. If someone who has ill intentions gets ahold of this fact, it will be bad for everyone.

While thinking of this, Ryan suddenly regrets his ridiculous actions. He’s already scared out of his wits since being discovered by Jack. If he’s discovered by someone else now, he’ll be doomed.

So, he stands up and prepares to leave. But his shirt is being tugged by someone.

When he turns around, he sees Jamie’s gloomy face staring at him, which makes him jump a little. She says, “Are you a bad guy? Are you going to kidnap my ‘woof woof’?”

Who is she talking about?

Ryan looks into the distance and sees a white ball of fur rolling around on the ground and immediately understands what she means. Still, compared to that ‘woof woof’, the daughter of the Gilbert family would worth much more, right?

Ryan feels helpless now, and he finds himself not able to tell any lies in front of this sly little girl.

“Do I look like a bad guy?” Ryan lowers his head, a mature light shining in his eyes which makes him look mature beyond his years, coupled with his baby face, he looks mild and gentle.

Jamie stares at him for some time, and then suddenly shows a smile, “Dan said that you can’t discover a bad guy by looking at his face!”

“…” Ryan twitches his mouth as he feels the urge to tap on her head.

Dan…

She is probably talking about the boy who lives next door. It seems like they are close.

When Ryan comes across this thought, he feels a little gloomy. He has been by Adele’s side all along, but for some reason he never witnessed Jamie who was born at that time. He was only able to look at Jamie’s face secretly when she was four years old.

In a state of confusion, Ryan is prepared to leave, but he hears Jamie’s soothing voice drifting into his ears again, “I believe that you are a good guy, a good guy always gives me food.”

Jamie is indeed a glutton, even though the candy that Ryan had given her is not something she enjoys, but she still regards this handsome boy as a good guy.

Ryan stops in his tracks and freezes slightly. Her words are like stones which causes a ripple in his heart.

Although her trust is based on food, but this is the first time that Ryan feels trusted, and it feels really good.

“Oh, Dan is back!” Jamie suddenly shrieks as sound of a car parking next door can be heard. She waves at Ryan before slipping into the William family house on bare feet.

Ryan then sees that Jamie is already sticking herself on Dan. She doesn’t care about the dirt all over her. She just continues hugging him.

Ryan thinks that a serious child such as Dan will be upset at her actions. Belonging © NôvelDram/a.Org.

To his surprise, he sees a loving and tender expression on his serious-looking face.

Jamie’s reminiscence comes to an end, and it ends at the scene where the handsome boy has given her a toffee candy. On the other hand, Ryan is able to remember every details clearly, including Jamie’s sad face when she is about to cry.

“You…” Jamie looks at him in astonishment, realizing that he’s that boy from back then. She was very young, it never occurred to her to ask him about his presence in the Moore family.

This is probably because he’s the Night. 9.

“Then you have been watching me when I grow up? Since I was born? Jamie asks him since Ryan was always at the Moore family protecting her mother. Then he should be able to watch over her as she grew up.

Ryan shakes his head in disagreement, “Because of my special identity, I was not able to leave the room prepared by the lady. But I always overheard the maids discussing about you, mainly praising you for your cuteness. This piqued my interest and I decided to take a look at you.”

While describing this, Ryan smiles faintly. He is puzzled himself as to why he would be interested in a four-year-old little girl and thinking that the sight of her sucking her fingers were so adorable.
