Waiting For a Girl Like You - Chapter 1091 Do You Need Me To Treat You To A Nice Meal

“Oh, I see. Good. We can find her then.”

Sally hung up the phone quietly and stole a glance at Sean.

“Uncle Sean. I have to pick up someone. I will have to leave now.”

Sean smiled at her, making her stressed face soften for a moment. It was as if the look they exchanged said, “Yes, things are hard, but it will be okay.”

After he left, Sally stood at the door for a long time, looking at nothing in particular with a melancholic expression.

At last, she heaved a deep sigh and left.

Meanwhile, Adonis looked at his watch again and again.

He wore a hat and a mask, trying his best to hide from the public. He could see the ship in the distance, moving closer but very slowly.

He remained dodged behind a parapet, afraid that someone would recognize him.

He was extremely impatient and anxious. But right when his patience was about to run out, the ship arrived, cutting through the darkening sky.

Once it was docked, he saw some staff members escorting Selina.

If Adonis hadn’t already made them aware of the situation, the staff would’ve been fooled by this little girl. She might have disappeared immediately after getting off the ship.

‘Human traffickers… Stepfather… A violent beating?

Selina, if Uncle Steven found out what you told the people on the ship, how sad he would be.’ Adonis thought to himself.

He saw her struggling to wrench free of their hold and run away. She smiled with one side of her mouth, as if she really had planned to escape.

It didn’t take her long to spot Adonis. As soon as she saw him, she shouted on top of her lungs, “Adonis! I knew it was you!”

She was about to trick them into letting her go, but this time they knew better. They held her closely. She wanted to find a place so that she could get off the ship but she wasn’t allowed to.

“If you didn’t want me to get involved, why did you call me and let me know what you were doing?”

Adonis walked toward her and held her hand, lest she ran away again.

“Do you think I care about your business?”

Adonis took a cold glance at her rebellious face. Who could tell this girl was only eleven, given the fire she was filled with? He took out his phone from his pocket and called Steven. “Uncle Steven, I found her. She’s fine, don’t worry,” he said.

Suddenly, he yelled out,

that she was finally behaving like a normal eleven-year old.

Adonis snapped his fingers and asked the waiter to serve another bowl of noodles.

Selina pursed her lips and swung her legs back and forth, waiting idly.

Adonis had planned on taking her back to Seaview Villa after the meal.

After all, she had been here several times and always stayed at the An family villa.

“I won’t go with you! I don’t want to see my mother. Oh, no…I meant I don’t want to see your mother…” Selina said, shrugging.

She didn’t want to see her father as well. She needed some time to calm down.

“Selina, you’re practically grown up. Can you stop acting like a baby?”

Adonis looked at her impatiently, trying to get into her mind. “Do you know how worried Uncle Steven will be if you don’t return home? He looked for you for the whole night, scared that you might be in trouble!”

Tears welled up in her eyes. She sniffed and sobbed, trying to get a hold of her own voice. “Yes, scold me! It’s all my fault! It’s all my fault, okay?”

She spat the words in his face and turned around, walking toward the road. She didn’t even bother to look at the traffic lights. She simply lowered her head and walked on.

Looking at her thin figure, Adonis took a deep breath. He quickly ran after her and grabbed her by the arm, pulling her off the road.

Selina threw herself into his arms all of a sudden, feeling dizzy.

“Fine! It’s up to you! If you don’t want to go to my house, then don’t go. I’ll find a place for you to live. You can take some to think it through before you go back. Is that okay?”

Adonis said, pushing her head away from him in disgust and sighed helplessly.
