Chapter 348
In a blink of an eye, it was already time for school dismissal.
Teresa was listlessly packing her school bag when Hayes suddenly whipped out his phone and typed a message for
Teresa to read, “My dad invites you over to our place!”
Upon seeing this, Teresa’s eyes lit up in delight, her laughter causing two adorable dimples to appear on her little
face, “Really? Is it really your dad who invited me over?”
Hayes was nodding his head like a bobblehead, then opened a message from his dad, Frederick, that was sent
earlier in the morning and showed it to Teresa again.
[After school, I’ll pick you up. You can invite Teresa over.]
Teresa, holding Hayes‘ phone, blushed happily. It really was from his dad! And his dad even said he would pick her
and Hayes up!
However, she suddenly remembered something and her previously excited lips slowly drooped down. Her mom
didn’t allow her to play with Hayes!
If she went to Hayes‘ house and her mom found out, she would be very angry, would she? Teresa was in a
dilemma.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtSeeing Teresa’s disappointed expression, Hayes also remembered that his dad had forbidden him to play with
Teresa a couple of days ago.
And the only reason his dad relented was because he had been on a hunger strike! Did his dad have some sort of
grudge with Teresa’s mom?
That day, after his dad drove Teresa home, he came back home very angry…
As Hayes was thinking about this, he quickly took his phone and typed, “Does your mom also forbid you from
playing with me?”
Teresa saw the cautious expression on Hayes‘ adorable face. She didn’t want Hayes to be disappointed, so she
quickly reassured him, “I’ll just tell mom that I won’t go find you! I’ll say… I’ll say that I have rehearsal! I need to
practice Taekwondo!”
As she was saying this, Teresa quickly sent a message to her mom, Marguerite, lying about going to practice.
Then, she happily hopped into the luxurious Maybach with Hayes.
As soon as Teresa got into the car, she saw Frederick sitting in the leather seat, talking on the phone. Upon seeing
her, he quickly hung up and gave a rare, warm smile.
Gosh, Hayes‘ dad looked so handsome when he smiled!
Although Maurice, was also very handsome, she seemed to prefer the looks of Hayes‘

dad.
“Hello, Hayes‘ dad! Nice to see you again!”
Teresa’s face beamed with joy, and her lips and eyes were filled with happiness.
Frederick didn’t say anything, but just nodded in acknowledgment. But his originally cold demeanor softened a bit
with the arrival of the little girl.
It was strange.
Teresa, being Marguerite’s daughter, which should made him feel uncomfortable. But once he saw her, his
prejudice inexplicably vanished, and even he himself didn’t understand why.
This little girl, she naturally brought him a sense of familiarity and fondness.
Seeing her vibrant and cheerful smile, all his worries seemed to fade away.
At this time, Chuck, who was sitting in the passenger seat, suddenly turned around and said mysteriously, “Teresa,
you coming to Hayes‘ house is our little secret, okay? Don’t tell anyone!”
Teresa’s clear and sparkling eyes blinked, and she pouted as if deep in thought.
Don’t tell anyone? That’s exactly what she wanted! She was even worried that Hayes‘ dad would tell her mom!
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“I won’t tell anyone!” Teresa patted her chest, her round eyes filled with a sense of loyalty.
Chuck was thoroughly amused by the little girl’s innocence and stretched out his pinky finger.
“Then let’s make a pinky promise!”
However, Teresa shook her head, turned to look at Frederick, and said, “I want to make a pinky promise with him!”
Chuck turned to Frederick. Would Mr. Winston even do such a childish action? Besides, Mr. Winston had a grudge
against Teresa because she was Marguerite’s daughter!
He must not like this little girl!
Worried that Teresa would be disappointed, Chuck again stretched out his hand towards her, “You can also make a
pinky promise with…”
And then, he stopped talking. Because he suddenly saw Mr. Winston actually stretching out his pinky towards
Teresa! Their large and small pinkies gently hooked together, forming a lovely knot, incredibly heartwarming.
Wow–It seemed that even Mr. Winston couldn’t resist Teresa’s charm!
After making the promise, she gave Frederick a soft smile, almost melted Frederick’s

heart.
However, at this moment, a cell phone ringtone broke the warm atmosphere.
Teresa took out her phone and immediately panicked, “Oh no, my mom is calling me!”
