Chapter 1314

Reynaldo walked over and embraced Essie and Roddy in his arms, smiling indulgently at them, saying, "Later, Daddy will build a big snowman for you, okay?"

"Yay," Roddy exclaimed excitedly, "I’m going to build a daddy, build a mommy, and also build an Essie."

"And Roddy," Essie added.

Suddenly, Essie pointed to a spot outside the window and shouted, "Uncle, it's Anton!"

I was taken aback and followed her gaze, and sure enough, I saw Anton.

He stood quietly outside the courtyard in a black coat.

In the wind and snow, that tall figure appeared particularly lonely.

Essie worriedly said, "It's snowing, why is Anton standing outside? Is he cold?"

I instinctively looked at Reynaldo.

Reynaldo pursed his lips and turned to shout at Madisyn, "Go and bring Mr. Palmer in."

"Ah!" Madisyn said, then put down the utensils in her hand and walked out.

However, Madisyn had not approached Anton yet, and Anton turned and walked away.

Essie, seeing the situation, panicked and quickly crawled onto Reynaldo's legs, her small body rushing towards the outside.

"Essie!" I hurriedly chased out.

Essie, with her short legs, ran fast and quickly disappeared from the yard.

I was extremely anxious.

Mainly, I was worried about the people around Matthew.

There were no bodyguards outside the courtyard. What if Essie ran out and was abducted by Matthew's people?

"Anton!" Essie shouted towards Anton outside the yard.

I didn’t know if she caught up with Anton.

Reynaldo quickly followed.

His long legs quickly caught up with Essie.

When I ran out into the yard, I saw him lifting Essie up in his arms.

Anton stood aside, quietly watching Essie, with traces of loneliness in his thin face.

"Anton, are you here to see Essie and Roddy?" Essie asked Anton, holding Reynaldo's neck and twisting her little head. "Then why are you leaving again?"

Anton smiled at her and said, "I just came to see how you guys are doing. After seeing you, I should go back."

Essie shook her head and said, "No, Essie hasn't seen Anton for a long time. Essie misses Anton."

I stood aside, feeling somewhat conflicted.

When in Glauvale, Anton did indeed spend a lot of time by Essie's side in order to help stabilize her condition.

So, Essie's relationship with Anton has always been very good.

Essie just liked Anton so much, I wonder if Reynaldo would get the wrong idea.

I glanced at Reynaldo again, and fortunately, there was nothing unusual on his face.

Anton suddenly reached out and touched Essie's little head, saying, "It's cold outside and snowing. Let's go inside with Mommy and Daddy. Just one look at you two is enough for me."

"No way." Essie pouted, telling Anton, "Essie still wants to have a snowball fight with Anton."

Anton shook his head and smiled, saying, "Next time, I still need to…"

"If you want to stay, then stay."

Before Anton could finish speaking, Reynaldo suddenly frowned and said, with a somewhat impatient tone.

Just this sentence from him directly stunned Anton.

Reynaldo said again, "If you really just wanted to take a look at these two children and leave, you would have left quietly long ago. Why wait until we all noticed you before pretending to leave?"

"Weren’t you just taking advantage of Essie liking you, deliberately lingering outside, deliberately letting Essie see you, so she would chase after you? Don’t think I don’t know your tricks."

As Reynaldo's words fell, Anton's handsome face immediately darkened.

He frowned gloomily and said, "I'm not as scheming as you think. I really just came to take a look at them…"
