Mysterious Little Wife novel Chapter 32

The quartet arrived at the airport about three o'clock in the afternoon. 

......

"Lacey, are you sure you want to go? Shouldn't you inform dad first?" Lillianna frowned and reminded her. "I suppose I could call you a taxi if you back out now."

Lacey found Lillianna's impatience with wanting her to leave amusing. She said, "I believe dad wouldn't object if it's Mr. Henderson I'm going with." 

Theo grinned at the reply. 

Sure enough, Lillianna had no choice but to clench her teeth in response. 

Indeed, if Bailey knew that Lacey had hooked up with Theo, he would surely beg her to come along.

"Theo, you're no longer a child. You must distinguish between human and demon." Sam's comments were loaded with meaning. He glared at Lacey with a frigid look. 

Lillianna was pleased by what Sam had said. She grinned as if she were watching a fantastic show. 

As such, Theo subconsciously glanced at Lacey, who was at the moment looking around the airport like a child. He couldn't help but chuckle. "Yeah, I can tell the difference between the two."

At the sight of this, Sam said nothing more and led Lillianna over to the VIP section.

"What are you looking at?" Theo approached Lacey and couldn't help but ask. 

"I've never been on a plane before. Look, there's a plane!" Lacey dashed over to the clear glass window. "It's so huge!" She said in surprise with her palm pressed against the window.

Theo followed her over. He smiled at the sight and asked, "You're the daughter of the Carter family. How could you have never flown before?" 

Lacey paused slightly at the question.

She looked at him from the side and asked, "Aren't you afraid of me?"

"Why should I be afraid of you? It's not like you're a demon that's going to devour me." His grin widened even more. 

"But didn't you hear what they said? I don't have a good reputation. I'm no good girl." Lacey smiled indifferently.

Theo frowned. He couldn't resist reaching out and flicking her forehead. "What are you thinking about? I can tell with my own eyes what kind of girl you are. Why should I care what others have to say about you?"

Lacey's breathing came to a halt. She was startled.

Gradually, a faint smile spread across her lips.

"Thank you, Theo," she said with twinkled eyes. She painted a ray of sunshine all over her face.
