Now he finally knew what ‘regret’ meant.
“Evan, is that you?”
Evan lifted his gaze and fell on Sofie Sweeting, who was standing in front of him. He froze when he saw her. Who would’ve thought I’d bump into her here. This is another reason why I shouldn’t have come out tonight.
“Evan, are you still mad about last time? It was my fault, and I’m willing to change. I’ll never repeat the same mistakes again.”
“You and the Sweeting family had already paid the price for that. Don’t bring it up anymore,” he replied in annoyance. Right now, he did not even want to see her face.
In fact, it would be better if Sofie stayed away from him from now on.
The woman stiffened for a moment, but a smile formed on her face the next second.
“Does this mean you will forgive me, Evan? Thank you! I have something to tell you. I’ll go to your place tonight!”
She smiled shyly and without waiting for his answer, she turned her body and left the scene.
Evan frowned. Do women have the habit of jumping to their own conclusions? Both Nicole and Sofie are like that!
This thought had him dumbstruck.
When they were about to return home from the dessert store, Maya ran towards him with a bright smile.
He stared at her chubby and naïve look. I really can’t put it into words how Nicole gave birth to such a cute girl.
“What is it?”
“I-I…”
“Just tell me what you want.”
Evan’s tone was gentle when speaking to the girl.
Maya’s clear and big eyes lit up. “Say, since you’re this rich, is there a difference between buying one piece cake and ten pieces of cakes for you?”
Evan thought for a while before shaking his head.
“Then what about twenty pieces?”
He lightly shook his head again and seeing this, Maya’s smile grew bigger.
“You want me to buy twenty pieces of cakes to bring back home?”
She nodded first, but then she shook her head when a thought dawned on her.
“Then, what do you want?”
“I want… I want to bring home forty pieces.”
