International Convention Center.
A black luxury van appeared at the entrance of the convention center.
In the car, the nanny and the bodyguard handed Lil Michael his gifts. The little prince was happy and full o f confidence.
The nanny asked, "Do you want me to accompany you inside?"
Lil Michael immediately refused. "No, only children need people to accompany them!”
"Okay."
The little charmer took a bunch of white chrysanthemums and a red velvet jewelry box as he walked into the lobby happily.
The receptionist saw him and thought that this kid looked extremely adorable!
"Little guy, who are you looking for?"
The little charmer smiled brightly and said, "I'm looking for Pretty Lady..."
At that moment, Nicole and Eric came out of the elevator one after the other. They attended this meeting together, so they must maintain a perfunctory courtesy between them.
When Lil Michael spotted Nicole, he immediately ran over and hugged her legs.
"Pretty Lady!"
Nicole was stunned. 'Is this the little cutie from yesterday?’
"Michael, why are you here?"
The little charmer had very long eyelashes and clear blue eyes. His childish face was a little shy as he held out the flowers in his hand. "For you."
Looking at a bouquet of white chrysanthemums, Nicole's eyelids twitched. She looked at the little boy with surprise.
"This flower..."
"I carefully selected these for you, Pretty Lady. I think that this flower is beautiful and is especially suitable for you! Pretty girls will surely like it."
Nicole was silent for a few seconds. She thought to herself, 'Not every pretty girl will like it!'
After all, Nicole had never received bereavement flowers in person before...
She looked a little torn.
However, seeing the little charmer’s eyes that were filled with expectation, Nicole thought, 'What does a small child know about white chrysanthemums being bereavement flowers anyway?’
She smiled and took it from him. Her voice was very gentle. "Thank you."
When Eric saw the white chrysanthemums, his face stiffened slightly, and the corners of his lips twitched.
Eric's perfectly sculpted face was a little glum as he narrowed his eyes at the boy. He really wanted to throw out the flowers.
'What an eyesore!'
"Who's this little kid?"
"His name is Michael. I just met him yesterday."
"Hello, Old Mister!"
