Chapter: 1033

�I�m not going to answer that until Ren gets home.� Adie quickly pulled Abby to him, looking at Stefan like he was a monster.

Abby, meanwhile, put a hand on her brother�s shoulder reassuringly. �Adie, I believe this uncle is a nice guy,� she remarked pleasantly. �You don�t have to be scared of him. He�s most likely Mommy�s friend. He even gave us a bunch of delicious tomatoes!�

She was eating a tomato as she spoke, and the delicious flavour of it reinforced her belief that Stefan wasn�t a bad guy.

Adie frowned hopelessly and scolded her, �Abby, didn�t I warn you not to trust strangers? You�ve never even met him before, so how do you know he�s not a jerk?�

�Oh, that�s simple. Bad people are ugly. Their faces will be scarred and they will be large. But this uncle is incredibly attractive, even more so than Daddy Liam! How could he possibly be bad? He�s surely a nice guy!�

Stefan was taken aback and said, �Little child, you and your mother are very much alike � you two are both shallow.�

He remembered how Renee fell in love with him because of his looks. Genes were such a curious thing!

�Come with me, Abby!�

Adie glared at Stefan, then took his sister�s hand and led her into the study.

�What is it, Adie? It�s not polite to leave the handsome man out there all by himself! We should spend more time with him.�

Abby stared impatiently out into the living room, gazing at Stefan, sitting on the couch, wishing she could always cling to the man.

But Adie swiftly slammed the door shut and, with a stern expression, scolded his sister, �You silly girl! Still can�t recognize who's that man is?�

�What do you mean, Adie? Do you know that handsome man?�

�So you really can�t recognize him. Fine, I�ll show you a picture��

Adie picked up his phone and browsed through it for ages, punctuated by periodical �ums� and �ahhs� before he finally tapped on Renee and Stefan�s wedding photo.

�Ah, he�s our evil Daddy!� Abby covered her mouth with her hand. Her eyes widened with shock, looking as big and juicy as grapes. She had always known that their naughty daddy was very handsome, but she never expected him to be this handsome in real life! It was no wonder that she did not recognize him the moment she saw him!

�Now that you know who he is,� Adie asked, �do you still like him? Do you still think he�s a good guy?�

�No!� Abby shook her head vehemently and clenched her little fists. �Not even a little bit!� she angrily declared. �Any man who dared to hurt Mommy is a bad man, no matter how handsome he is! I don�t like him at all!�

�Good,� Adie stroked his chin and nodded with satisfaction. �I�m glad you haven�t lost your backbone and forgot our motive of coming to Beach City� Let me ask you again, why did we come to Beach City?�

�To protect Mommy!� Abby answered loudly, her voice full of spirits. �To be by her side and to avenge her!� JrNovels.com
