Mysterious Mr.Richard novel Chapter 28

Richard's eyes darkened. He looked carefully at Brandon. The boy's eyes are as black as obsidian. But his look was more distant than that of the other children at his age.

Pearl was taken aback.

Brandon was a silent and cold boy, but he was not rude. Even if he  really did not like what people gave to him, he would also thank them politely and receive it.

But Brandon refused Richard, which was unusual.

Fortunately, the waiter came over and broke the awkward silence.

Pearl watched at Richard wiping the ice cream off the mouth of Bonny, and he seemed not to care too much about Brandon's rejection.  

Bonny enjoyed Richard's service naturally. She blinked to him and asked, "Daddy, do you like fries?"

"Not really."

"You probably never tried them in the best way."

"What is that?"

"Look." Bonny smiled mysteriously. She picked up a fry and poked it into her ice cream. After getting some ice cream around the fry, she sent it to Richard excitedly, "Daddy."

Pearl's face stiffened. She sounds a little unnatural. "Bonny."

Bonny was holding a fry with ice cream. She was sunny and innocent. Richard stared at this miniature of Pearl. And suddenly, everything began to overlap with his memory from seven years ago.

Bonny's eyes were curved when she was smiling. She resembled a lot the young girl in his memory.

"Richard, I have my exclusive formula for eating fries."

"..."

"Dipping your fries into the ice cream. You probably never tried it, right? I don't usually tell people about it."

"..."

"Come on, just try it!"

"..."

"Daddy?"

A childish voice made him come back to senses.

Bonny winked at him and urged again, "Have a try. It's very delicious. I don't usually tell people about it."

The gentleness faded a little from Richard's eyes. "Well, Bonny, you should it. I don't like sweet food."
