Baby, I Found for You an Awesome Daddy

Rick was silent for a long time before he said slowly, “That’s another matter.”

“When it comes to Charlotte, it’s another matter. Double standards, I tell you.” Avery shook his head.

“Let’s not talk about this. What did you come to see me about?”

“It’s like this, I wanted to ask if you want to have dinner together. I found a good Japanese restaurant. Since you’re picking up Kendall, we can go together. I haven’t seen her for a long time,” Avery said while glancing at his watch. “Anne and Braden should be having jet lag. You leave them be.”

“That’s fine.”

After he finished the call with Avery, Rick went to the Stevens’ residence. When they heard that Kendall was going to move to Rick’s house, Caleb and Ryland were very happy and kept teasing Kendall.

Rick turned a deaf ear to this, pretending that he did not hear anything at all. It was not until Kendall came out with her luggage that he made a token effort to talk to them both before taking Kendall away.

He put her luggage in the trunk. “Get in the car.”

Kendall shook her head. After Rick finished with her luggage, Kendall suddenly went to hug and kiss him.

Rick instinctively turned his head to avoid the kiss. Kendall’s eyes widened as she looked at him with hurt in her eyes. “What’s wrong?”

“Don’t you have any shame?” Rick shut the trunk door, grabbed her hand, and got her into the car.

Before Kendall could sit properly, Rick pulled her onto his lap. He held her head and kissed her lips. He deepened the kiss steadily. Kendall felt her whole body weaken, and she relaxed into Rick’s embrace.

Avery, who was sitting in the passenger seat, snapped his fingers and said, “Please, can you restrain yourselves a little?”

Kendall screamed. She immediately pushed Rick away and buried her face in her hands.

“Now you feel ashamed?” Rick found her very funny. He took her hands away and hugged her harder. “Come on, relax.”

Kendall indeed relaxed obediently into his embrace.

Avery teased and said, “Rick, Kendall is so good to you. She listens to you. If a woman treats me this way, I would definitely forget about Irena.”

“Don’t joke. Your love for Irena is deeper than my love for money.” Rick laughed.

“Wow, I didn’t think you loved money.”

“Who doesn’t love money?”

“I can list out a number of people, such as Shane. Or perhaps Shane. Maybe Shane?” Avery deliberately mentioned Shane and kept emphasizing his name.

When she heard Shane’s name, Kendall sneered unhappily. She reached out to hold Rick’s finger.

Rick patted her head and said, “I can’t compare with Shane. He can easily let go of his own NC Company. I have to report it to the headquarters if I even want to take a month-long vacation.”

“Well, you can still take a month off.” Avery snorted, “I still haven’t gotten my revenge. I can’t even sleep well, much less take a vacation.”

“What revenge?” Kendall asked curiously.

“It’s better if you don’t know about this.”

“It has something to do with the Stevens family.” Kendall guessed it in one.

Avery just smiled and gave her and Rick a meaningful look. “That’s why you’d better not know. Otherwise, how will you face me and Rick?”

“I’m not afraid of you guys. It’s just that I don’t know how to face my family. Also…” Kendall thought of that woman’s name, but she could not be bothered to say it. She turned her body and kept resolutely quiet.

“Kendall, no matter how good you and Rick’s relationship is in the future, you won’t be able to enter our circle.”

“Avery.” Rick frowned.

“I’m different from you. I’m not good at sweet-talking children. Besides, don’t you think it’s better to make things clear?” Avery winked at Kendall and said, “Child, what do you think?”

“What, what do you mean by a child?” Kendall thought.

Kendall glared at him, “I’m not a child. Furthermore, I don’t want to enter your circle. If you and Charlotte aren’t happy, you can sue me again. Besides, there’s no one protecting me right now. Just lock me up, it’s what I owe you anyway!”

“If you knew that you would owe her, why did you kidnap Sheryl?” Avery sneered.

“I just can’t stand that she thinks of Rick as a spare tire. What if I kidnapped Sheryl? After I kidnapped her, Charlotte sued me while Rick and my family protected me. What’s wrong with that?”

Why did Avery think that Kendall had done something wrong just because he was Charlotte’s friend?

She was in the right. Everyone used the resources they had to take what they needed.

Avery nodded slowly after hearing this. “You’re right. But there’s one thing you got wrong. It’s because you think that you’re right that Rick won’t let you enter our circle. People have to pay for what they have done, don’t they?”

Kendall was stunned.All content is © N0velDrama.Org.

“The price you must pay for kidnapping Sheryl is to be estranged from Rick for the rest of your life. He will neither forgive you nor blame you for this incident. This incident has already occurred and no one can change that. But don’t you think it’s very disgusting?” Avery laughed. Then he looked away from the two people sitting in the backseat.

Rick sighed, but he was internally grateful to Avery.

There were some things that he could not say to Kendall. Once he said it, Kendall would think too much. This would not only be detrimental to his plan for the Stevens family, but also to his relationship with Kendall. But it was different if Avery said it.

From the perspective of a completely “evil” character, not only could this allow Kendall to understand the logic behind it, but it could also let her know that not accepting her had little to do with Charlotte.

“Well, if you lock me up, once I get out, I…” Kendall bit her lip but did not say anything more.

Avery closed his eyes to rest, pretending that he had not heard her speak.

The car became very quiet for a while.

All of a sudden, Avery’s phone rang. He opened his eyes and looked at the screen. He picked up the phone with some surprise. “Lottie?”

“It’s me.” Shane’s voice came from the end.

Avery put it on speaker and said, “Rick and I are going to have dinner together. Do you want to come with us?”

“Yes, she wants to drink.” Shane handed Charlotte a coin, feeling helpless and doting, as he spoke. “Aim first.”

“What are you doing?” Avery found Shane’s words very strange.

“Playing with a claw machine.”

“Aren’t claw machines usually in malls? It’s not noisy over there.”

“We’ve cleared the place out.”

The corners of Avery’s mouth twitched. Rick, who was sitting in the back seat, laughed and said, “Mr. Fuller, I admit defeat. I really do.”

Just because Charlotte wanted to play on a claw machine, Shane had immediately emptied out a mall for their use. To achieve this kind of gesture, you needed not only money, but also a great deal of influence. Not only did it require a lot of time to get the mall to stop its operations, adding the cost and everything else, it would take at least a few million dollars.

Of course, even if someone had millions of dollars to spare, not everyone would do such a thing.

“She doesn’t know.”

“Our Lottie is really innocent.” Avery’s sigh held a bit of sarcasm.

“Where are you going? It’s my treat.”

Avery looked at Rick and pointed his chin at Kendall. His meaning was obvious.

Rick could only say, “Mr. Fuller, I want to bring some family.”

“Bring them then. It’ll be good for them to see each other.”

“The family member I’m talking about is…” Rick tried to explain.

Shane interrupted him. “I know. If it was Anne, you would have just brought her over.”

Rick had the feeling that he had met his match again. He smiled, feeling in a good mood. He hugged Kendall tighter. “Mr. Fuller, Avery said that he wants Japanese food, do you and Lottie mind?”

“Send me the address.” Shane paused and said, “Send it to this number, my phone is dead.”

“Okay,” Rick agreed.

After he ended the call, Rick handed the phone over to Avery.
