Chapter 650: Chapter 650: How To Tell Laty That He Was Her Father?

At the same time, Laty has already sat on the bus. She called her mommy to tell her the bus station she would get off.

Seeing Edie’s ash gray face, Laty covered her eyes in despair.

Was she really her mother? How could her father put up with this woman?

"Miss Lara, you are late."

She complained to Edie.

"Sorry, dear. I’ve tried the best. But it is so far. So...."

"My class ended at half five o’clock. It was about a 40-minute drive far away from the school. If it was jammed, it would take one hour and ten minutes at most. If you have to come here for one hour in advance, you won’t be late. I’ve recorded this on your phone. You won’t forget it anymore."

"Sorry, dear. I promise that won’t happen again."

Edie said in guilty. She was a grown woman with 1.68 in height. She never expected that she would apologize to a little girl one day. She was such a failure.

She thought girls should be cuter and softer. The most important point was that she shouldn’t be too smart. Otherwise, she would teach you everything all the time.

It was really scary.

"All right. I can forgive you this time. I want to eat something. On your treat."

"What do you want to eat?"

"Seafood." Laty squinted and smiled. fгeewebnovёl.com

Edie threw an eye on her cute face and said, "Okay. Eat whatever you want."

As they talked, a car was driven towards them.

"Miss Lara didn’t change a lot. She became more beautiful and confident."

Seeing the change on Edie, Ivan felt pleasant.

Mr. CEO found his wife again. It was such a piece of great news.

"Yes," Stuart said. He fixed his eyes on her. His eyes turned so soft as if the thing he was looking at was the rarest thing in this world.

He looked at her so carefully, as if he was worried that she might disappear next second. He was so fragile at the moment, as his sensitive nerve. If she disappeared at this moment, he might lose control immediately.

Edie indeed changed. She changed a lot. Her hair got longer. She put her long curl hair together. Elegant and casual. It was early autumn. She wore a white T-shirt and a gray coat, as well as a pair of long pants, perfectly highlighting her slender body.

She wore it like a student in high school five years ago. Now she looked like a blossoming flower. It was her moment. She looked at the prettiest at the moment. Anyone can see that—the shining temper on her.

"Long time no see, my Mrs. Yates. How are you?"

Stuart asked. No one answered him.

The weekends passed by so quickly. Laty had to take her bag to her school again.

Edie took her to school and asked her to remember to eat something at lunch. Edie needed to go to Lionel today. She couldn’t pick up Laty tonight. So she asked Laty’s teacher for help.

After having everything arranged, Edie wanted to leave. Laty started her speech to Edie.

"Don’t drive too fast. Pay attention to traffic lights. Remember to watch the rear mirror before speeding up or changing the road. Call me when you arrive. Don’t tell others that you are single. Remember to eat lunch. Don’t stare at the handsome man. Remember to tell me what you want to eat at dinner. I would cook rice and order take-out for you in advance. Understand?"

She said all these words in minutes. Her face looked so serious.

Edie opened her mouth. She wanted to refute her. But suddenly, she realized she found no word to refute her little daughter.

So she nodded and said, "Okay. I promise I would listen to you. Bye, babe."

After watching Laty leaving, Edie turned around and left.

After she left, a black car stopped in front of the door of the school.

Stuart watched Edie driving away. He was so concentrating on her.

Then he walked into the school. The teacher asked who he came for.

"I am Laty’s father. I come to visit her."

"Laty?" the teacher froze. She heard Laty had only a single mother. She never heard that she had a father.

Was this incredibly handsome man her father?

The teacher’s heart beat faster and faster. But she tried the best to calm herself down and then led him into the kindergarten.

Stuart stood in front of the window, seeing Laty sitting among her classmates, fixing her clear eyes on the board, as if she was focusing on listening to the teacher.

Stuart didn’t know Laty was sitting there, staring blankly until he kept looking at her for ten minutes.

He kept smiling. He knew clearly who her daughter looked like. She looked like himself.

He stood there for a whole class. And strangely enough, he wasn’t bored at all. When the bell rang, he was slightly shocked.

After the class, Laty’s deskmate dragged Laty’s clothes.

"Laty...I want to use the washing room...I need to shit."

She said, like begging.

Laty couldn’t put up with her anymore, "Why do you always tell me? I am not your mother."

"Because....you are so cool and scary. Those ghosts and monsters would run away if you go with me."

Sophie finally told Laty this fact.

Too cool? Too scary?

Laty wanted to refute her. But she realized she acknowledged this at the bottom of the heart.

So she had no choice but went to the washing room with her little desk mate.

When they walked out of the classroom, Laty saw Stuart standing at the door. When her eyes touched his eyes, she felt so strange. So weird feeling. Why was he still here? What the hell was he doing here?

Sophie also saw Stuart. She got confused, "That super cute uncle."

"Do you still want to use the washing room?"

"Of course."

Then, two little girls went to the washing room directly without throwing an eye on Stuart. They ignored him directly.

Laty stood at the door of the washing room, waiting for Sophie. Stuart was standing at a distance away from her, looking at her. He neither walked towards her nor stepped back. He just stood there still. Looked so funny.

Actually, Stuart wanted to walk to her. But he was afraid that he would frighten Laty. So he couldn’t do that. But he really wanted to look at Laty. So he didn’t leave.

It was the first time for him to be a father. He has lots of questions. He didn’t know how to do it. However, he has read a lot of books about how to make friends with kids these days. When he really met with his daughter, he got confused. He had no idea how to approach his little daughter.

Edie has been away from him for five years. In these five years, he did nothing but kept working. He didn’t join in any social activity. He almost forgot how to interact with others. Therefore, it was quite difficult for him to be a good father.

How to tell Laty that he was her father?

As Stuart racked his brains for ideas, Laty suddenly walked towards him.

Stuart frowned immediately.

She was walking towards him.

What should he say?

Laty, I am your father.

No. No. No. Too abrasive. He might frighten her away.

I am your mother’s friend. I come to visit you.

This sounded good.

But when Laty stood in front of him, she talked before he said any words.

Laty crossed her hands on her chest and said, "You’ve been following me for three days. I saw your car downstairs at my house these days. You wore a pair of sunglasses, like gangs. If you keep doing this, I would call the police."
