Chapter 256: Chapter 218: You Can Definitely Guess a Thing or Two (Part 2)

Laura came back to the bottom of the block with a big bag, and just as she took out her key card to open the door, she felt a force rush over and hug her leg.

"Sister, you’re back!"

Laura couldn’t help but look down at the little brat hugging her leg, a few black lines involuntarily appeared on her forehead, and her eyes gradually shifted to the side.

No one!

What the hell is wrong with that gloomy uncle?

Leaving his own son here unattended? Is this how you become a dad?

She then patiently said, "Twinkle, what are you doing here? Where’s your daddy?"

Justin Hawthorne tilted his small head and spoke in a childish voice, "Sister, can I stay at your home tonight?"

Laura took a deep breath, "Twinkle, can you tell sister where your home is? Sister will take you back."

Justin immediately drooped his little face, his voice infinitely aggrieved, "Sister, do you not like Twinkle anymore? Did Twinkle make you unhappy?"

Laura held her forehead, her head aching. She really wasn’t good at communicating with kids...

"Sister doesn’t dislike Twinkle, and Twinkle didn’t make sister unhappy. But kids shouldn’t be running around at night. What if your daddy can’t find you?"

"Hmph! I haven’t seen daddy for days! He’s either working or working, he doesn’t care about Twinkle at all, so Twinkle decided to run away from home!"

Justin said seriously, his little expression couldn’t be more unhappy.

Laura’s forehead was drenched in cold sweat, running away from home?

But how did running away from home lead him to her building?

"Twinkle, what you’re doing is not right, what if your daddy can’t find you and calls the police?"

After saying this, Laura suddenly had a feeling of déjà vu...

Justin blinked, "Sister, what’s wrong with you?"

Laura shook her head, "Nothing, sister better call your daddy just to be safe."

Justin pathetically tugged at her coat, "Sister, don’t kick me out. I don’t want to go back..."

His soft, sticky voice just struck Laura’s heart, she thought, in the end, she couldn’t be hard-hearted towards a little kid...

Alright then!

It’s just staying at her place for one night, nothing to worry about.

"Okay, let’s go!"

"Sister, you’re the best!"

Justin immediately beamed with joy, like he’d succeeded with some scheme.

Laura suddenly felt an illusion, the little boy in front of her smiled a bit cunningly...

Was she being manipulated?

Upon thinking it over, how could that be? He’s just a boy less than six years old!

What Laura didn’t know was that behind her, Justin made a "victory" gesture, clearly very satisfied with his performance.

In fact, his daddy had sent him here on purpose tonight...

Back home, Laura put the groceries she bought from the supermarket on the table and took out her phone to call the little brat’s daddy. After scrolling through her contacts, she found a lot of names she wasn’t familiar with...

She then looked up at Justin, "What’s your daddy’s phone number?"

Justin glanced at her and quickly recited a string of numbers; Laura hurriedly noted it down and dialed out, only to unexpectedly discover that the number was already saved on her phone...

Moreover, it was labeled: Jason.

She paused for a few seconds, unable to believe that she had saved such an intimate name...

Apparently, she was deeply involved before! Thank goodness for that car accident that made her forget about him, it’s just as well, getting entangled with an older man with a child is definitely unwise!

The call connected quickly, and she was still in a daze until the deep, magnetic voice of that man came from the phone, "Laura, you’re looking for me?"

Laura snapped back to reality, took a deep breath, and politely said, "Mr. Hawthorne, your son is at my place, if you have time, please come and pick him up..."

She hadn’t finished speaking when she saw Justin’s pitiful and accusatory eyes, as if accusing her of breaking her word...

Helpless, she had to change her words, "Are you free tomorrow morning? I have an interview to attend, and I don’t feel comfortable leaving Twinkle at my place alone, could you come get him?"

Jason Hawthorne understood then, his son had successfully infiltrated.

Great!

"Did Twinkle bother you? He didn’t cause you any trouble, did he?"

"No, he was very good."

"That’s good then, well... Sorry for the trouble tonight."

"Tomorrow morning?"

"I’ll be there by 7:30 on the dot."

"That sounds good."

After hanging up, Laura let out a sigh, her eyes gently turned to the little brat playing on the iPad on the sofa, "Doesn’t your daddy worry that I could be a human trafficker who might sell you off?"
