Please Take Me Home Daddy (by Mona Surrey) novel Chapter 94

Antonio had seemed perplexed and at a loss. It was as if he were the bossy CEO who dared not take a deep breath and retort at his wife.

Laura vaguely felt something was amiss and added helpfully, “I’m ok, Mrs. Smith. He didn’t mean to do that. It is my fault for not sitting properly.”

Winnie frowned and said, “You don’t have to help him. I saw that he didn’t carry you well

enough, and that’s why you have such injuries.”

Then, she glared at Antonio unhappily and remarked, “You’ve never been a reckless person.

What happened to you?”

Antonio’s entire body stiffened, but he maintained his calm composure and answered, “She just had a nightmare. I was trying to appease and calm her. Then, you walked in suddenly. I was afraid you’d misunderstand my relationship with her. Hence, I didn’t hold on to her

properly.”

Winnie asked helplessly, “How can you think I’ll misunderstand?”

Sensing an opportunity had been presented to her, Laura held Winnie’s hand and said, “I’m sorry to have caused you trouble. Mr. Yale was going to send me home, but he encountered something on the way, so he left me here. Please don’t be angry with Mr. Smith, okay? He didn’t mean it. It was me who failed to sit properly.”

Antonio looked at her in surprise.

He thought, “She has been on my side, pleading for me from the beginning. Is she so afraid of me being ‘misunderstood?“”

Winnie looked at Laura adoringly and praised, “You are so smart, and you know how to help

him plead his case.”

Laura pursed her lips nervously without saying a word.

Winnie did not take too much notice of that and rebuked, “You can’t have that happen

again, Antonio, She is not your child. Who will take responsibility if something goes wrong?”

Then, she led Laura out of the conference room.

Antonio’s heart suddenly tightened, and he followed them, seemingly unintentionally.

He was afraid that Winnie would be suspicious.

He said, “We just finished our meeting. I have time now. Didn’t you ask me to accompany you to check out the attire for the banquet? Let’s go then.”

Winnie glanced at Laura, who was holding her hand, and asked, “What about her?”

Antonio frowned and answered, “I’ll ask her family to pick her up.”

Winnie disagreed. She bent down to look at Laura and said, “I mentioned we’d have the chance to meet again. See, I’m right!”

Antonio was astonished and asked in shock, “Do you know each other?”

Winnie nodded and answered smilingly, “I saw her when she attended my brother’s interview last time. I felt she and I were destined to meet at first sight. So, I talked with her for a long time. I originally thought that I could still see her after she became famous in the future. But I didn’t expect to see her again. It really is destiny.”

Antonio looked at Laura in surprise and asked, “You’ve seen Winnie before. Why didn’t you

mention it to me?”

Laura was stunned and shook her head in a daze.

Winnie asked inexplicably, “Why would she tell you about meeting me? Do you know her?”

Antonio came to his senses abruptly. He shook his head calmly and said, “Since Laura has

seen you before, then she should have told me everything about it. I can also buy her some

snacks.”

Winnie,could not help but laugh at what Antonio said. “Even if she doesn’t know me, you

can’t buy her snacks? She is a four–year–old kiddo. How much can snacks cost?”

She smiled at Laura and said, “It’s nothing. Don’t be bothered by him. He doesn’t know how

to take care of children. You and I were destined to meet. Do you want to go shopping with me? How about I buy you a dress?”

Laura was confused and asked, “What’s your relationship with him, Mrs. Smith?”

Winnie smiled and answered, “I’m his wife. We are family.”

Laura was instantly stupefied, as if she were struck by a thunderbolt, and wondered,

“Wife?”
