Chapter 24 She Looked Like the Old Lady
"Mr. Brook."
"Good day, Mr. Brook..."
Even in middle age, the moment James came into the canteen with his daughter, he was instantly put into the spotlight for his outstanding appearance.
At that moment, the whole lively canteen was even quiet for a few seconds. It took a minute before a few employees closest to them recovered themselves to greet James.
Slightly nodding, James led Nancy directly to the canteen stalls in his arms and then stood behind a small line.
Nervous as the front person felt.
Though trembling, some female employees suggested, "President Brook, how about you try first?"
"Never mind. It is soon my turn."
The female employee's mood was very complicated at the moment, both the excitement and nervousness of meeting the prominent leader.
"Daddy, are you tired? Put me down, please. I can walk on foot by myself."
Such a sweet and considerable girl. Nancy felt that her father should be exhausted after walking for so long carrying her, and she didn't want to be a burden.
Tapping the tip of her delicate and small nose, James said in a gentle voice, "Not tired. You're as light as a feather. "
Nancy was held high by her father, wiggling her little legs. She was kind of shy when she noticed that many people were peeking at her.
She slightly rubbed on Daddy's shoulders like a kitten. She looked so adorable that drawing so much attention.
James even heard the sound of a deep breath. However, when he looked over, he found that they pretended to be concentrated on eating as if nothing had happened.
However, they were deeply shocked.
"Wow, she is so cute. That adorable girl is the daughter of our president that we've been hearing about, isn't she? I've never seen such a lovely kid."
"My god, I was almost discovered by Mr. Brook. Honestly speaking, my lady is so adorable and delicate. However, I am wondering why she is so thin. Is she sick?"
"What a pity that I didn't dare to take pictures."
"Click..."
"Oh my god!"
"Jesus! What have you done, Lindsay."
The short-haired girl, Lindsay, quickly took away her phone with a satisfying smile.
"It is the brave who gets much. Anyway, it's off-duty time, Mr. Brook won't blame us even if he finds out."
"It may seem reasonable. But I am always nervous about facing Mr. Brook, just like the time when I have to face the director in the school. It felt like he would confiscate my phone as soon as I took it out. "
"Erm... So do I. "
"Come on! Come on! Please send us the photos! "
"Aaaah!! I'm fond of these photos! "
"Shhhhh... Be quiet. Don't get caught. "
Not far away, a few girls were chatting excitedly while Nancy was nestling in her dad's arms. She didn't deliberately behave like this, but one would easily be attracted to her watery eyes and a soft voice like a puppy while she requested.
She was so sweet that everyone wanted to spoil her.
"Daddy ~ I wanna get off. Can I hold Daddy's and Grandpa's hands?"
Looking at her father appealingly, Nancy suggested softly.
What a pity! Though James felt reluctant, he still put the little girls down as she required.
"Ahem... Hold tight to daddy's hand. Okay? " James said seriously.
Nancy showed a sweet smile and tightly grasped her father's fingers with her tiny hands.
"Grandpa, I want to hold your hand too."
Then she held Grandpa's finger with her other hand.
