Chapter 1561
"Forget about them. Let's go back first, okay?'
They drove back toward the city. The road was bumpy, and Tail stopped talking after getting in the car. Afraid that Tail was traumatized, Joanne told her many stories of brave heroines.
Gradually, Tail felt safe. "They are very awesome."
"So are you, Tail..." Joanne gently wiped away Tail's tears and coaxed her.
Tail hung her head in embarrassment. She felt she was not awesome enough because she was scared at the sight of blood and Edwin rushing in with an angry face.
In terror, she subconsciously ran away from there, but luckily, she met her mom.
At this time, Joanne's cell phone rang. Content © copyrighted by NôvelDrama.Org.
Seeing that Joanne was holding Tail with both hands, Ada took the initiative to answer it. The person on the other end of the line was Edwin. Ada mouthed at Joanne.
"Did you pick up Tail? How is she? Was she hurt?" Edwin asked eagerly and nervously.
Joanne could hear his concern. "We've picked up Tail. She was not hurt, but she was scared. Well take her back first.
You and Eason helped us a lot. Thank you so much."
Edwin was obviously relieved. He said stiffly, "Tail is my daughter. It's my duty to save her."
"Please thank Eason for me. I'll treat him to a meal some other day."
"I already thanked him." Edwin, of course, would not let Eason eat with Joanne. He said gently, "I will be right back.
Tell Tail not to be afraid. I've dealt with those bad guys. They will never hurt her again."
Edwin quickly hung up the phone. Joanne heard the sound of his car engine starting. He must be rushing back.
Tail needed to feel secure at this time.
Joanne then took Tail back to the Brown family’s house, where the old housekeeper had prepared Tail's favorite dishes.
But Tail was still scared and listless.
Even though the food was delicious, she was not interested.
After taking a few bites, she was nestled in Joanne's arms, rubbing her eyes sleepily.
"I'll get her a bottle of milk. How can she not eat?" Ada pinched Tail's slightly cool face worriedly, took Tail's bottle, and went to the kitchen.
Tail had been drinking nutritious milk since she was born weak.
Holding her small bottle, she didn't want to move her mouth, so she bit the straw and sucked a little bit of milk every now and then. Without realizing it, she drank half a bottle of milk.
When Edwin arrived, he saw Tail drinking milk in Joanne's arms. Tail seemed in low spirits, but at least she was safe.
Edwin's heart overflowed with tenderness. He smiled gently, looking stupid. His heart ached for Tail.
"Mr. Atherton, Tail is all right. Please go inside now."
Edwin grabbed Lucas' arm. "Are my clothes messy? Is my hairstyle good enough?"
Lucas was confused. 'Is this the time to discuss this?'
"Not messy. Quite good. Mr. Atherton, you are the most handsome man in Sapphire City."
Edwin straightened his clothes and then walked toward the living room with his long legs...
