Chapter 100 She Is So Adorable

When Xavian was about to yell at Sophia, he saw the adorable smile on her face. He realized the anger in him instantly disappeared.

“When you came out… Did you tell your dad and mom? They would be worried if they can’t find you,” Xavian softened his voice as he asked.

Sophia sneaked out to come and look for Natalie.

She had been to Natalie’s house once with Franklin, but she could not remember the exact location of Natalie’s house. Therefore, she could only roam around the area, hoping to see Natalie when she returned home.

Now that Sophia had met Xavian, she knew that she would be able to see Natalie if she followed him home.

With that thought, she tugged Xavian’s hand and stared at him pitifully.

“I… w-want… to see… Natalie…”

“She’s my mommy.” Xavian raised an eyebrow and added, “I won’t share my mommy with you even if you whine here. It won’t work on me. There’s already another person who’s stealing my mommy in my home. Stop making things worse for me.”

“X-Xavian…”

Xavian was younger than Clayton, so Clayton was his elder brother.

He always wished that Natalie had given birth to a little sister instead of Clayton, who was such a sly person.

When Sophia called him by his name, it completely melted his heart.

“W-What did you call me?”

Sophia smiled at Xavian and replied, “Xavian…”

Even though her voice sounded sweet, the smile on her face appeared sweeter. Xavian smiled as well after looking at her expression. Owned by NôvelDrama.Org.

He tried to hide the smile on his face before he said, “I heard your stomach growling. You must be hungry. I’ll buy you something to eat at the convenience store.”

“Okay.”

“Don’t think that whining works. I just don’t want to see you starve.”

“Okay.”

However, Xavian’s speech contradicted his actions. He bought plenty of food for Sophia in the convenience store.

Inexplicably, Xavian liked Sophia. Even though he did not want her to steal his mother from him, he could not stop himself from doting on the little girl who kept stammering.

After Natalie had finished treating Yana and left the Beckers residence, she received a phone call.

Samuel’s name appeared on her phone screen.

Upon giving it a glance, she immediately ended the call.

How dare this man call me shamelessly after what he did to me last night? Forget it! Your true intentions were revealed last night!

Even though the line was cut off, Samuel did not give up. He kept calling again and again.

Natalie deliberately refused to answer a single one.

Finally, she scoffed before she answered the call.

She yelled into the phone, “Samuel Bowers, don’t you understand? I’ve received money from your woman and promised that I would stay away from you! I have to keep my word because I’ve taken the money! Stop making things difficult for me!”

“Sophia is missing.”

Natalie was stunned upon hearing that, but another thought appeared.

Why would Sophia be missing all of a sudden? Also, this man is rich and powerful. Why would he need me to find a little girl?

“If she’s missing, then look for her.” Natalie bit her lip and retorted, “Why are telling me about it? If you can’t find her, then how would you expect me to find her?”

“You’re not worried?”

Clearly, Natalie was extremely anxious.

She liked Sophia ever since she first met her.

However, she knew that she was not Sophia’s mother, so she could not stay by her side no matter how much she liked her.

“Samuel Bowers, she’s your daughter. You’re supposed to be the worried one, not me,” Natalie said calmly.
