Goodbye You Never Loved Me novel (Martha and Stefan) novel Chapter 729

Chapter 729 The Little Girl is a Bit Gullible

Martha patiently wiped the girl's tears and coaxed her, "Don't cry. I will take you to find your mommy and daddy, okay?"

Anna hesitated for a moment before nodding gently.

Martha squatted for a while but got tired and struggled to stand up with Stefan's help.

At that moment, Anna took a step forward and tightly held Martha's finger in her small hand, afraid that Martha would leave if she let go.

"Pretty auntie, please don't leave me," she said. She wanted to follow this beautiful auntie home.

Anna stared at Martha without blinking and couldn't help wondering if she would grow up as pretty as her one day.

Martha touched Anna's head lovingly and said gently, "Don't worry. I won't leave you."

Upon hearing this, Anna instantly calmed down a bit. She kept staring at Martha with her eyes wide open lest the pretty auntie disappear in the blink of an eye.

Martha turned to Stefan worriedly and asked, "Should we take her to the police?"

"Yes. Ulmore has high traffic flow so it is safer to find the police," Stefan replied with his eyebrows slightly furrowed.

He obviously knew that finding this child's parents was not easy. Even though he had some power in Ulmore, various forces were intertwined here, making it difficult for him to locate the little girl's parents quickly enough.

Moreover, handing over this matter to the police could prevent imposters from pretending they were related family members of the child.

Martha nodded in agreement, then bent down trying to pick up the little girl standing right before them.

Anna glanced at Martha's bulging belly hesitantly, which made Stefan immediately lean over, picking up the girl directly and saying, "Let me do it."

Stefan looked at Martha's belly with obvious concern. He didn't trust letting her hold such a young child who appeared two or three years old given she was pregnant.

Martha nodded slightly, knowing full well that holding children was inconvenient for herself now.

Suddenly being lifted by this serious uncle made Anna feel scared; Her small hands nervously clasped together while looking back at Martha anxiously.

Although this strange man was handsome which made Anna want him to hold her, he had such an expressionless face which seemed scary sometimes.

Martha immediately noticed how frightened the girl was feeling, so she smiled reassuringly while reaching out to touch Anna's head and softly comforting her.

"Anna, don't be afraid. He is my husband. I'm carrying a baby in my belly, so it's not easy for me to hold you," Martha explained gently.

Anna nodded seriously. "I know, there's a little boy in your belly, just like my mommy."

Martha smiled and patted Anna on the head, praising her for being sensible. Meanwhile, Stefan frowned slightly and his face darkened.

Nonsense! It was obviously a little girl in Martha's belly.

He thought this to himself and corrected Anna out loud, "It's a little girl."

Anna saw the sudden change in Stefan's expression and her big eyes became evasive fearfully.

This uncle looked scary as if he was going to eat her up!

Martha stood by and found it amusing. "Why are you arguing with a child?" She then reached out to touch Anna's chubby cheeks again.

"Don't be afraid. With me here, he won't bully you."
