Chapter 1488
Tail was not used to the scene that had just happened.
Joanne was holding Tail in her arms, and the latter leaned on her lap, looking very obedient.
As they were about to get into the car, they heard Edwin's cold voice.
"Wait."
Tail lifted her head from Joanne's arms and saw Edwin. Her pupils shrank, and she exclaimed, "Mommy, he's the child trafficker..."
Edwin's handsome face, which had almost softened under his great efforts, immediately sank.
He glanced at Joanne and then turned to Tail with a gentle smile. "Tail, do I look like a child trafficker?" he asked.
Tail sneaked a glance at Joanne's expression and squared her shoulders. "Mommy said that you cannot judge a book by its cover. Some people have human faces but beastly hearts."
Lucas wanted to give Tail a thumbs up. No wonder she was Joanne's daughter. At such a young age, she could already use proverbs.
Edwin became even unhappier. What was Joanne teaching her daughter every day?
But his smile became gentler.
He took out a thick wad of notes from his wallet and handed them to Tail.
"I am a kind-hearted and sincere person. I already have a lot of money, and I don't bother with abducting children.
Moreover, I am a friend of your mom, so please do not call me a child trafficker in the future. You should call me..."
Joanne's eyes twitched, and she quickly interrupted him." Mr. Atherton, if you suddenly give her money like this, she will be scared."
Tail grabbed the thick stack of money, looking bewildered. She had only received gifts while livestreaming before and didn't have a clear concept of money. She raised her hand and handed the notes back to Edwin.
"Sir, if you are a friend of Mommy, then I will apologize to you, but I cannot accept your money."
