Chapter 9 05 The Gifted Child (Part I)
In Edmund's apartment, he was sitting face to face with a man, both of whom looked solemn, and not far from them, there were more than a dozen black-clad bodyguards standing scattered...... The update is so fast.
Suddenly there was a sound of footsteps outside, and the rest of the people in the room, except for Edmund and his men, changed their faces and drew their guns from their arms.
"It's okay," Edmund waved his hand, "it's Momo back." As soon as he heard the footsteps, he knew who it was, and who else would be so angry besides the little girl
"Momo" The man opposite him raised his eyebrows, and a touch of surprise flashed over his handsome face, which sounded like a child's nickname, "Is it your daughter" He has a daughter, how can he not know
A hint of loss flashed across Edmund's face, and he smiled wryly, "It's my goddaughter, Andy's little daughter;;;;;;;;;;;;; "Andy is Andrew's nickname.
"Andy's little daughter" the other party suddenly realized, "Oh, it's that milk doll" He remembered the last time he saw Andy, it was when his little daughter was baptized, but that was four years ago.
The door was pushed open with a snap, and a small figure ran into the drawing-room, running straight to Edmund, and crawling onto his lap in two strokes, and the movement was so skillful that it had apparently been done more than once or twice.
"Godfather, Godfather, why don't you go outside with me?" the little doll whispered, not noticing that there were more people in the room.
"Momo is good, wait a while, the godfather will talk to someone about things, and I will accompany you out soon." Edmund rubbed Momo's hair lovingly, pointed to the other side and said, "Quick, Uncle Julio." ”
Momo turned his head to look at the man sitting on the sofa opposite, he was about thirty-seven or eighteen years old, with a traditional Italian man's unique sculpture-like handsome face, a pair of light brown eyes faintly revealing majesty, he was wearing a tailor-made black suit, the edge of the neckline was inlaid with gold silk threads, revealing a white shirt and gray tie inside, the whole person exuded a luxurious and elegant temperament. However, for Momo, who has lived in the pile of beautiful men since she was a child, she has long had a strong immunity to the creature of beautiful men.
"You're Momo," Julio said without waiting for her to speak, "the last time I saw you, you were a milk doll just over the moon, but I didn't expect to grow into a pretty little girl in a blink of an eye." ”
Momo's beautiful blue eyes sparkled at each other, and she called out to her uncle obediently.
"What a good boy." Giulio liked this beautiful little girl very much, that kind of liking came from the bottom of his heart, and there was no pretentiousness, "It's a pity that I didn't know that you also came to Italy this time, otherwise my uncle would definitely give you a meeting gift." ”
"Don't, Mommy will scold me." Momo quickly shook her little head, it's one thing to go out and play with her godfather, it's another thing to accept someone else's gift casually, and it's another thing if it's a stranger's gift. Mommy will definitely get angry when she knows it, and Mommy will get angry, and even Dad will have to retreat, let alone her.
"Oh," Giulio seemed interested, "how could your mommy scold you?"
"Mommy often taught my brother and me that we were not allowed to accept gifts from others, and she said no. No ......" she frowned, momentarily stuck, what Mommy said at the time, damn it, I can't remember.
"No merit is not rewarded." Edmund said lightly behind her, Momo's eyes lit up, "Yes, yes, that's it, it's useless." ”
