Chapter 12: She Is My Mommy
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Hearing the self-proclaimed father wanting to help her change her clothes, Nicole was of course unwilling. She covered her body with her hands and said, “I don’t want to!”
“It’s not a gentlemanly behavior to wear such clothes to a dinner party,” Alpha advised patiently.
Nicole is a girl, not a gentleman! Ignoring what Alpha had said, Nicole refused. “I’m not changing!”
“I won’t, I won’t, I won’t!”
Seeing that the child’s resistance was so intense, Alpha, who had always been all-powerful in the business world, had no choice. It was also the first time he had seen Noelle act so defiantly. He could only helplessly look at the noisy little boy and say, “Okay, we won’t change. Let’s go.”
Alpha grabbed the documents, then picked up the boy and hurried out the door.
Leaning against the man’s firm shoulder, Nicole silently watched as the door to her home gradually disappeared into the distance. Then, the elevator doors closed, blocking her view completely.
Would her mother be angry if she left with her neighbor like this? Nicole pursed her lips and dismissed her concerns. It was rare for her to come out and play, so she had to cherish this opportunity.
After being carried into the car by the man who claimed to be her father, Nicole sat down in the backseat and heard Alpha ask, “Noelle, have you finished all the practice set up by the piano teacher?”
So, this man had mistaken her for the little boy Noelle who looked like her! Nicole understood and nodded her head. “Of course.”
“Not bad.”
Alpha nodded approvingly, then asked again, “Do you still feel dizzy today?”
“It’s alright.”
“That’s good.” Alpha heaved a sigh of relief and said, “Daddy will definitely find the ghost doctor to treat you!”
Ghost doctor? Wasn’t that her mommy’s title?
Thus, Nicole kindly suggested, “You can look for mommy next door.”
The woman next door?
Alpha’s face darkened, thinking to himself that this woman had not given up on getting close to him and his son. It seemed that he would have to give her a good warning next time.
“Do not just call anyone your mother, got it? Also, if that woman comes looking for you in the future, just ignore her.”
But my mommy is my mommy. How could I ignore her? Nicole pursed her lips and retorted, “She is my mommy.”
“That woman is not…”
“She’s my mommy!”
Alpha was thoroughly exasperated. He couldn’t figure out why Noelle had been so stubborn today. He’d been talking back to him, and the thought that he might have been too lonely lately made him stop arguing.
When they arrived at the banquet venue, Nicole’s eyes were wide open as she looked at the crowd outside the window. Her mouth was slightly opened in shock.
Alpha picked Noelle up as usual and stepped onto the red carpet.
Seeing the flashing lights, Nicole thought to herself, “Not good! If mommy finds out that I sneaked out, she will definitely scold me!”
Thereafter, Nicole burrowed into Alpha’s arms. Enveloped by the man’s embrace, she was filled with a sense of security.
“Mr. Alpha, what are your plans for the massive wealth and power that you are about to take over?”
“I don’t have any plans. I think it’s very normal.”
“Alpha, may I know who your son’s birth mother is?”
“No comment.”
“Alpha, what do you think of GK corporation’s recent movements?”
“I suggest they do their part.”
Alpha strode along with the child in his arms, responding to the various difficult questions posed by the surrounding reporters.
Nicole, who was in Alpha’s embrace, listened carefully. Immediately, she became interested in the disputes between these consortiums.
After entering the banquet hall, Nicole raised her head and asked, “Are you really not afraid of anyone?”
