Being the mischievous little boy he was, one of Connor’s eyebrows ticked upwards before a smirk
curved his lips.
Looks like I’ll get a chance to get revenge for Mommy!
Spinning around, he returned to his mother’s side and lifted his head to look up at her. “Mommy, I
change my mind. Can I get a chocolate gelato?”
Natalie, who was about to pay at the cashier, turned to look at Connor in surprise.
Her son was smiling at her innocently, his earlier scorn was nowhere to be seen.
Am I dreaming? Can pigs fly?
Nonetheless, Natalie bought another one for Connor and then questioned the two of them, “So where
shall we go next?”
Ever since she launched her label, her time off work was extremely precious. Thus, she intended on
spending the whole day with her lovely darlings.
“Let’s take the train!” Sharon suggested eagerly. There was a small train that ran through the first floor
of the shopping mall.
Connor did not seem to mind, so off they went to the train. But then halfway there, he suddenly stopped
moving and said, “Mommy, I have to go to the restroom.”
“Okay, go ahead then. We’ll wait for you at the train,” Natalie agreed without thinking much.
She was not at all worried about sending him off alone to the restrooms. Unlike most kids his age,
Connor always had an excellent memory and was incredibly independent.
The restrooms at the mall were located quite a distance away from the train, and Connor knew that.
That was exactly the reason he chose to head to the restroom at this time.
He walked for a bit before craning his neck to check if his mother was watching. Satisfied that she was
not looking in his direction, he turned and ran off toward the boutique
he saw earlier.
“Wrap this up for me. That one too.”
“Wrap this up for me. That one too.”
In the meantime, Jasmine was still browsing through the clothes in the high-end boutique store.
Since she was a very important customer, the saleswomen were busy catering to her every need and
order. They were so occupied that nobody noticed a little boy had entered the store with an ice cream
cone in his hand.
Right at that moment, Jasmine’s attention was caught by a long lavender evening dress. It had a deep
plunging neckline and a high slit. The dress was designed to hug a woman’s curves in the right places
while accentuating her best features, making her the center of attention. Staring at that dress, she
could already imagine how striking she would look in it.
In addition to that, it just so happened that there was a dinner party she had to attend with Shane a few
days later. Thus, it was a chance to showcase her alluring figure, and she would not miss it for the
world.
If I wear that dress, Shane will definitely fall head over heels for me. It’s impossible for him to miss that!
With that thought in mind, Jasmine hastily ordered one of the saleswomen to bring it to her as she
could not wait to try it on.
At the same time, Connor was wandering around the boutique, looking for Jasmine. Finally, he spotted
her among the sea of dresses after a few minutes.
By then, Jasmine had already changed into the evening gown. She was currently admiring herself in
the mirror, completely unaware of the little boy standing behind her.
Remembering how rude this woman had been to his mother, Connor felt rage building in him. His
brows furrowed deeply at the thought of it.
While she was distracted, he snuck closer and stopped at just the right distance from her.
Then, he deliberotely roised his voice ond shouted, “Mo’om, your dress is so pretty!”
The sudden shout from behind Josmine stortled her.
She instinctively whirled oround to look. Unfortunotely for her, her ropid ond obrupt movement sent the
hem of her evening dress smocking right into the ice creom cone in Connor’s hond.
Quick to reoct, Connor grobbed the chonce to loosen his grip on the cone.
Splot!
The geloto splottered on Josmine’s dress, instontly stoining it with o huge splotch of brown.
“You brot!” Josmine shrieked in fury when her beloved dress wos ruined. However, when she got o
closer look ot the kid in front of her, she wos utterly stunned.
Isn’t he Notolie’s son? Whot o smoll world it is!
“I’m so sorry, mo’om! I didn’t meon to dirty your dress.” Despite the opology thot spilled from Connor’s
lips, there wos no hint of remorse on his foce ot oll.
On the controry, he wos frowning with his lips pursed tightly. It mode him look eerily similor to Shone.
Gritting her teeth, Josmine forced her onger oside ond plostered o friendly smile on her foce. She
replied in os soft o tone os she could monoge, “Thot’s okoy. I know you didn’t do it on purpose.”
Gozing ot the womon in front of him, Connor wos omozed thot Josmine could still smile ot him ofter
whot he did.
His originol plon wos to piss her off so much thot she emborrossed herself in public.
“But I messed up your dress! Aren’t you ongry?” He took o leof out of Shoron’s book ond widened his
eyes, blinking up ot Josmine innocently.
He mode sure to oppeor os hormless ond guileless os he could. After oll, he hod to ploy the port
perfectly.
Then, he deliberately raised his voice and shouted, “Ma’am, your dress is so pretty!”
The sudden shout from behind Jasmine startled her.
She instinctively whirled around to look. Unfortunately for her, her rapid and abrupt movement sent the
hem of her evening dress smacking right into the ice cream cone in Connor’s hand.
Quick to react, Connor grabbed the chance to loosen his grip on the cone.
Splat!
The gelato splattered on Jasmine’s dress, instantly staining it with a huge splotch of brown.
“You brat!” Jasmine shrieked in fury when her beloved dress was ruined. However, when she got a
closer look at the kid in front of her, she was utterly stunned.
Isn’t he Natalie’s son? What a small world it is!
“I’m so sorry, ma’am! I didn’t mean to dirty your dress.” Despite the apology that spilled from Connor’s
lips, there was no hint of remorse on his face at all.
On the contrary, he was frowning with his lips pursed tightly. It made him look eerily similar to Shane.
Gritting her teeth, Jasmine forced her anger aside and plastered a friendly smile on her face. She
replied in as soft a tone as she could manage, “That’s okay. I know you didn’t do it on purpose.”
Gazing at the woman in front of him, Connor was amazed that Jasmine could still smile at him after
what he did.
His original plan was to piss her off so much that she embarrassed herself in public.
“But I messed up your dress! Aren’t you angry?” He took a leaf out of Sharon’s book and widened his
eyes, blinking up at Jasmine innocently.
He made sure to appear as harmless and guileless as he could. After all, he had to play the part
perfectly.
