Chapter 48 His Gentleness
If Valerie knew about Reese’s idea, she would have definitely rolled her eyes.
When Zoe caught the loach on TV, they praised Zoe for becoming skillful and sensible.
They said she was brave!
What about now?
I was just selling vegetables and yet I was scolded and criticized like this.
The difference in treatment should not be too severe.
The vegetables on the vegetable stall were almost sold out around
noon.
“Congratulations! You completed today’s task!”
After the staff members confirmed with Wilma, they looked at the two exhausted and sweaty individuals with smiles on their faces.
Tucker and Valerie relaxed for a moment and took a long breath.
The two people looked at each other and smiled, then they high–fived
each other.
Wilma also rarely smiled. She took out the money she earned from selling vegetables today and handed two bills to the two of them.
“This is the result of your labor today.”

The two of them happily took the two banknotes.
Looking at the staff with confusion, I asked if these two can be taken.
The staff hadn’t said anything yet, but Wilma directly stuffed it into Tucker’s pocket.
“Take it! Who works without getting paid! Buy some good food for the little girl! Look at how thin she is!”
The proud Wilma spoke so much for the first time, and she felt a little embarrassed. After stuffing the money, she went to tidy up her things.
The two of them completed their tasks, so they returned first and had a good rest.
Tucker took off his apron and scooped up Valerie in his arms, striding out with big steps.
Not having completed the task, Tucker’s face looked a bit serious.
Valerie was quite sensitive and she noticed something off about Tucker, which made her feel a bit uneasy.
Approach Tucker cautiously.
The two of them returned to the mud hut in silence.
What happened? Why does it feel a little off?
I also felt it, Valerie was scared.
What happened to Tucker? Did he discover something?
Hmm… I think it’s better to tell the child a little bit and reveal some information, otherwise it’s easy to be misunderstood.
Yeah, I found it strange too, let alone children.

And Valerie is not as confident as we thought. Look at her now, she doesn’t even dare to move.
The people in the live broadcast room also sensed something amiss between the two of them, and they were discussing it below.
Tucker held Valerie tightly, and he could naturally feel the stiffness in the little girl’s body in his arms.
But he still didn’t speak…
Back in the cabin, the staff members were too afraid to say anything as they watched Tucker sit on the edge of the bed, holding Valerie and placing her on his lap.
“Valerie, I had something to tell you.”
“Umm… Okay, Daddy.”
Valerie’s heart thumped loudly.
After she finished work, she calmed down and then realized that she had done many things that were not suitable for a seven–year–old child while selling vegetables.
I didn’t know what I was panicking about.
She reflexively remembered the members of the Horton family, who only wore such serious expressions when criticizing and reprimanding themselves.
Tucker had become milder, but Valerie still felt a little scared deep down.
She was too nervous, and the timidity and gradually darkening light in her eyes made Tucker even more uneasy.

He reached out and grabbed Valerie’s icy cold hands.
A tremor ran through my heart.
“Valerie, you did exceptionally well today. You helped me find someone, and your weighing machine worked even better than mine. In my eyes, and in everyone else’s eyes, you truly are an impressive child.”
Valerie’s nervousness ceased.
Is this praising someone?
Why does the atmosphere of praising people have to be so serious?
She blinked her eyes in confusion, looking at Tucker.
