Chapter 761
Vonnie’s eyes lit up. “So he never intended to come and take the child from you?”
I nodded, feeling relieved in my heart, but also a touch of indescribable… loss. Originally, Reynaldo did not like children as much as I had imagined. He… didn’t seem to have any expectations for Essie and Roddy.
I glanced at the two children and couldn’t help but feel a little sour in my heart. On the other hand, it’s good to think from another perspective. Since Reynaldo had no intention of competing with me for the children, I could safely bring Essie and Roddy with me back to Freybourne this time.
When Johnathan came back from the bathroom, Vonnie and I had already returned to table 08. Since Reynaldo already knew about the existence of the children, I didn’t need to avoid Johnathan anymore.
Johnathan was taken aback when he saw me, then he smiled and greeted me, “Oh, Esmic, you’re here too.”
I nodded and smiled at him, which was my way of responding. The man looked extremely happy, with a big smile on his face. He already had the appearance of a playboy, and this smile added a few more touches of unruliness and charm.
He was indeed handsome, and he was exactly the type that Vonnie liked. If he hadn’t had any grudges with Vonnie before, this blind date today might have really worked out. It’s just a pity that these two people didn’t get along from the beginning.
After Johnathan sat down, he waved to the waiter and ordered some food specifically for Essie and Roddy. He then sat there, smiling at the two little ones. They stared at the two little ones in a daze.
Roddy asked him, “Sir, why have you been staring at me and Essic and laughing?”
“Because I like you guys.” Johnathan really laughed like a flower. He looked at Essie and Roddy with gentle and loving eyes, as if he were looking at his own offspring. It can be seen from this that the man definitely liked children.
I leaned back in my chair, feeling depressed, and wondered, “Why doesn’t Reynaldo like children?”
Vonnie sneered at Johnathan, “They are mine and Ralda’s babies. If you like them so much, why don’t you go ahead and have your own?”
“I, a grown man, who should I blame for giving birth? You?” Johnathan retorted immediately. After he retorted, he seemed to realize that his retort was a bit off, and a hint of unnaturalness flashed across his handsome face.
Vonnie also looked unnatural, grunting, “Dream on. Who wants to have a child with you, a big radish who can’t stay faithful? Isn’t that just asking for trouble?”
“Humph, you want to give birth to me and I don’t want it,” Johnathan picked up the teacup and drank tea angrily.
Vonnie wrinkled her nose and gave him a disdainful look. I glanced at the two of them and, for some reason, felt like they were quite a good match. Just now, the interaction between the two of them, I feel like this blind date has some potential.
Actually, leaving aside everything else, Johnathan seems pretty nice too. Family background and appearance are both top-notch, and on top of that, he is warm-hearted and loves children. If he starts a family and has children in the future, he will definitely be the type who takes care of the family and dotes on the children. So, if Vonnie could really be with him, that would be nice.
Emma, no, I couldn’t be a third wheel here. I smiled at Johnathan and said, “It’s getting late, so I’ll take Roddy and Essie back first. You two continue to chat.”
