Chapter 331 Don’t You Like My Father?
“Who knows? With your intelligence, you might be deceived by a man one day.”
He poked her forehead, pushed open the office door, and let her take the child out.
Cierra rubbed her head. Just as she was about to refute, she saw a thin figure sitting alone outside the office.
Wanda?
Why didn’t she come to the office to find them when she returned?
Cierra wasn’t in the mood to discuss further, but she didn’t overthink what Wanda was doing outside.
After all, Jaquan was not in the office. Maybe she felt slightly embarrassed to be with them, so she didn’t come in.
In addition to what had just happened, she might need to deal with some company affairs.
Cierra didn’t take this small matter to heart. She just held onto Will’s hand and moved closer to her.
“Wanda, we plan to go home with Will. Do you want to come with us?”
She glanced at Will, standing beside her, warmth.
But she quickly hid her emotions.
She shook her head and looked at Cierra with a smile. “I still have something to deal with, so I won’t return with
you, Miss Barton.”
Cierra frowned.
If she remembered correctly, Wanda had been calling her Cici with her mother in the past few days.
Why did she suddenly call her Miss Barton now?
She looked closer at Wanda and found that Wanda looked a little tired.
It was probably because of the farce downstairs.
But that wasn’t right.
If it were because of her scumbag’s father, Wanda would not have used such a distant tone of voice to address her.
Obviously, it was because of something else.
Cierra suppressed the confusion and pretended to coax her intimately, “Didn’t my brother give you a day off? You
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtshould still be on vacation at this time. How can you take the initiative to work overtime? You don’t have much
salary. Why don’t you come back with me to play with Will?
Will also moved his feet, trying to show his presence before her.
Unsurprisingly, her eyes did stay on the child for a few seconds.
However, unlike before, Wanda did not agree to their request.
“It’s all because of me that Mr. Barton let me clear my name. I should stay in the company to help.
Miss Barton and Mr. Barton have something to do, so that you can leave now.”
There were no other people in the president’s office at the moment.
Firstly, it was the weekend.
There were few people working overtime.
Secondly, those who gossiped behind Jaquan’s back last time had been fired by the company and had yet to have
time to recruit employees.
The empty space made Cierra feel entirely at ease.
“Wanda, you should have seen what Jaquan said during the live stream. He helped you because he likes you. Why
do you have to talk about it in such a tone? Also…”
“Miss Barton.”
Before Cierra could finish her words, she was interrupted by Wanda’s crisp voice.
“I know Mr. Barton’s kindness, and I’m also very grateful for his deep love for me all these years. But in this world,
not everyone is good to me, so I have to accept it. Like I like pears. You said that apples are healthy and delicious,
so do Phave to take this apple?
“Mr. Barton is perfect, but I’ve considered it carefully. We’re not a good match, so I’m sorry. If it’s because I liked
Will to stay with you these days and caused a misunderstanding, I can only say a few more words of apology. I’m
sorry.”
A warm and shallow voice sounded in the empty area, and it took a long time to dissipate.
Cierra stood rooted to the spot in a daze.
She still couldn’t figure it out.
“Not suitable.
How could they not be a match?
Wanda is capable and beautiful, and Jaquan is not a good-for-nothing. He is also good-looking.
In the eyes of outsiders, the only thing was their family background gap.
One was from a top family in Los Angeles; the other was an assistant from an unknown place.
But what did it matter?
In the past few decades, the Barton family had also been impoverished.
Her father was also not favored by her grandfather. He firmly believed that a family like the Barton family could not
give Sarah a good life.
However, it is proved that as long as people have will, regardless of the reality of the material, no difficulties can be
invincible.
All those theories the world had summed up, such as a well-matched family, were about people.
It had always been a problem of a broken promise.
After thinking about it, Cierra also wanted to ask Wanda about it.
But in the end, it turned into a sigh.
“If you Now don’t like Jaquan, we can’t force you. It’s not your fault these days. My mother and I wanted to get you
and Jaquan together, so we often asked you to be our guest. I’m sorry for causing you trouble. I won’t do it again.
“But no matter what, I still hope that you won’t blame us because of this. My mother and I like you very much.
“So is Will.”
As soon as Cierra finished speaking, Will added childishly, standing by the side.
Wanda quietly clenched her fists on the chair, tears welling in her eyes.
She suppressed her emotions and deliberately hid her feelings.

with you.”
“She could also… visit the father and son.” added in her heart.
Cierra didn’t know what she was thinking and only said. “Then why are you still calling me in such a distant manner?
You even called me Cici this morning.”
Wanda paused for a moment and then smiled. “OK, Cici.”
Although she was satisfied with how she addressed her, she still had mixed feelings. “Jaquan is really disappointing.
I’m still waiting for the day when you become my sister-in-law.”
She tightened her grin and said calmly “Mr Barton is very kind. It’s my fault.”
“No way!”
Cierra interrupted her angrily.
But she didn’t say anything more about it.
Love was not something that could be made up by matchmaking. It depended on each other’s will.
If the other party felt that it was inappropriate, she couldn’t tie them up by force.
For example, she and Draven were forced to get together by Ernest in the past, but they had divorced.
Wanda and Jaquan were both excellent, but there was no need to force it if one was unwilling.
Cierra didn’t speak much about personal matters but couldn’t help but add a few more words about business.
“Wanda, it doesn’t matter if you don’t want to accept Jaquan. However, don’t think about resigning. You can apply
for a transfer if you feel embarrassed to be by Jaquan’s side. Of course, it’s OK to continue working here. You and
Jaquan cooperated for so many years, and you must have a tacit understanding. Jaquan is not a person who can’t
distinguish public from private affairs. I hope you can be careful in this respect.”
Wanda nodded gently. “I know. Thank you.”
After explaining, Cierra held onto Will’s hand and planned to leave.
However, the little fellow suddenly stopped and did not follow her. Instead, he grabbed Wanda’s hand and fixed his
gaze on her.
“Do you really not like my father?” He asked
