My Baby’s Daddy novel (Anastasia) novel Chapter 866

Chapter 866

“It‘s our job.” He was happy that she was starting to be cooperative. He had no time to take care of her, so he needed her to be in his vicinity. 

She was starting to feel cold, and she wanted to go back to her room. She heard squeaks when she was going past Richard, and she looked down, only to see a couple of mice run past her feet. A scream arced through the night, and Angela leaped into the air. She wrapped her arms around his neck, and her legs were locked around his waist so she wouldn‘t fall. She was hanging on him like a koala 

bar. 

Richard reflexively held her hips to keep her from falling down. The air froze for a few moments, and he asked, “How much longer are you doing this?” 

Only then did Angela realize she was hugging him. She coughed awkwardly and let go of his neck, then she jumped down. At the same time, she looked at him closely for the first time. He had a chiseled, handsome face. His brows were sharp, his eyes were deep–set, and his nose was aquiline. His lips were thin but sexy, and he had a perfect jawline that drew people‘s eyes down to his neck. He radiated manliness everywhere. He also had an aloof air about him, and his eyes seemed unfathomable. 

Richard left before she could finish staring, and she followed him, worried she might run into more mice. This was a dramatic day in her life. She went through a life–and death situation and had her heart broken just in one day. 

Richard went to the Meyers‘ place the next morning. He was sitting on the sofa, facing the Meyers couple. Richard told them what happened, and they were 

horrified. They couldn‘t believe their daughter was dragged into something so dangerous by chance. 

“Is she hurt, Mr. Lloyd?” Daphne asked quickly. 

“She scratched her forehead, but otherwise she‘s well. You can‘t see her for now, though. Maybe it‘ll last for six months. Maybe a year. Leave her to us. We‘ll take care of her,” Richard said calmly. 

“We trust you. Please take care of our daughter, and sorry for the trouble.” Gilbert was understanding 

“She‘s not easy to get along with, so please bear with her. She‘s used to the nice life. Please forgive her if she did anything wrong.” Daphne knew her daughter was a handful. 

“She‘ll work with me. Don‘t worry about it.” 

“Good. I‘ll prepare her clothes. Please take them to her for me.” Daphne then went upstairs.
