Please Take Me Home Daddy (by Mona Surrey) novel Chapter 92

Antonio’s face darkened. “She wouldn’t dare be angry with you. I’m here to protect you.”

The employees looked at each other and blankly watched their boss comfort the child.

They thought, “Is this still the same Mr. Smith who always looks intimidating if the meetings are interrupted? Or are we dreaming right now?”

Laura looked up at Antonio with tears on her face and asked for his help, saying, “Mr. Smith,

I don’t want to stay alone anymore. I’m so scared! I’m really feeling scared!”

She grabbed Antonio’s thumb tightly with her chubby little hand.

Seeing her in such a state, Antonio felt his heart tangle with confusion and mess. The sentence she had said on the show back then involuntarily formed in his mind.

If Laura did not prepare the meal, Lilian would punish her.

He suddenly understood why Lilian wanted to give birth to this child. Lilian must have known that she could not get Antonio’s love, so she gave birth to his child to treat the child

badly in revenge.

To the others, it looked like she had given birth to a child, but in fact, she was using this

child to vent her anger.

Antonio cursed heavily.

Seeing that she did not receive an answer for a long time, Laura grabbed Antonio’s hand fearfully and said with tears in her eyes, “Mr. Smith, I won’t cause you any trouble! Can I stay with you? I don’t want to go back. I’m so scared. I’m afraid of dreaming about Mommy

again!”

Antonio frowned. Seeing the child behaving as such, he did not have the heart to refuse her

no matter what.

He simply pulled Laura into an embrace and clumsily hugged her horizontally, patting her with his hand in an uncertain rhythm.

“I won’t kick you out,” Antonio said expressionlessly. “You can stay with me. With me here, you won’t have nightmares.”

Laura nestled in Antonio’s arms and sniffled softly, unaware of the surprised gazes around her. The little girl looked up at Antonio innocently, as her heart was still full of fear.

Laura asked, “Mr. Smith, did I do something wrong? I shouldn’t be alive, right? Am I a

mistake that was born in this world?”

All the employees frowned when they heard that.

Although they did not know the whole story, they also felt very distressed to see the child

like this.

Antonio raised his eyebrows and could not help but lean his head against Laura’s face. He

answered firmly, “You’re not a mistake.”

Laura was choked up but was not sure of the meaning of Antonio’s words. “I’m not a mistake? But Mommy said-”

“Your mommy is not right.” Antonio cut off her words and patted her on the back. “You will

never be a mistake ever. Everything you do proves that you are right to exist in this world.”

Whether it was Laura’s intelligence, her interpersonal skills, or how well she responded to situations, everything was proof to him that it was actually right for the child to be born.

It was worth it to have Laura.

Everything was worth it.

Smelling the cool fragrance of Antonio, Laura gradually calmed down as she lay in the man’s arms. Then, she began to doze off again and said vaguely with her eyes closed, “Mr. Smith… I like to stay in your arms. You’re just like Daddy. If Daddy were here, would he hold me like this as well?”

Antonio’s breath caught in his throat, and his arms holding Laura tightened. Yet, he did not provide an answer.

Laura fell asleep quickly, breathing evenly in Antonio’s arms and sleeping very soundly.

The employees did not dare to gasp as they looked at the scene in shock.

The PowerPoint was still playing on the projection screen in the slightly dim conference

room.

Antonio held the little girl in one hand, swaying her body gently and patting her with his

other hand.

This scene was so beautiful that one could draw it into a portrait.

However, everyone still could not believe that Antonio, who always acted promptly and decisively, was comforting a child.

He was comforting a child during a meeting.

The employee in charge of explaining the presentation took a glance at Antonio.

Antonio’s expression was much better than before. Apparently, the man returned to his

senses from the anger. “Go on.”
