Angel In White
“Uncle Davin, so you have been allowing Zayden to fight Joy all this while?”
Davin felt a little embarrassed at that question. He had reminded Zayden to be careful around Joy, as
he was afraid that his son might be bullied by Joy, yet Zayden ratted him out.
What a disappointment Zayden is.
“Nope. I did not teach him that,” Davin blurted out.
Everyone was looking at him oddly, and Maya said what was on her mind, “Uncle Davin, how can you
teach a kid to fight?”
“Exactly! You’ve exposed yourself there,” John chimed in.
“I… I did not. John, stop adding fuel to the fire!” Davin refuted stubbornly.
Sheila glanced at Davin before helping him to explain himself. “Your uncle has only reminded Zayden
so that Zayden wouldn’t get bullied. He has never taught Zayden to bully other kids. All he did was
teach Zayden to protect himself.”
“Uncle Davin, clearly, your teaching is over the line. Look at what he did to Joy!”
“Exactly. Uncle Davin, did you think Joy is capable of bullying Zayden?”
“I’m elder than him. I will protect Zayden instead of bullying him.” Joy blinked innocently.
“Fine, fine. It’s all my fault. I won’t teach Zayden to use that way anymore. From now on, I’ll teach him
to be more loving. Is that okay?”
Joy gave it a thought before nodding her head.
Maya said, “That’s more like it, Uncle Davin.”
Davin glanced at Maya. Is it wrong that I don’t want my son to be bullied?
Once the incident was settled, Sally and Catherine walked over.
Juan was surprised to see her. “Y-You… What are you doing here?”
“How can I not come and congratulate Mrs. Seet on the opening of her hospital as your girlfriend?”
Clad in a white suit, Sally was smiling faintly at Juan. Her voice wasn’t that loud, but it was firm.
Juan sized her up. She did not look like she came with a friendly intention.
The white suit on her made her look elegant and graceful. Juan couldn’t help but suspect her, as she
had once claimed that she was an orphan and that she had bought an old house with her savings.
Also, her smooth and delicate hands did not look like she had suffered through her childhood and early
years.
Did she make up a miserable story to hide her true identity? Juan had a feeling that she wasn’t as
innocent as he thought she was.
“We have accepted your wishes wholeheartedly. You may leave now.”
“Juan, how can you speak to Sally this way? She’s here to send blessings to Mommy. We should thank
her for coming.”
“Thank her? She came without bringing any gifts. If all she can offer is a sentence of blessings, then I
shall thank her with this too. Thank you very much, Sally!” His tone was full of disdain.
“Juan!” Evan glared at him.
Juan looked up and met Evan’s frosty gaze. He immediately concealed his arrogance a little.
Sally wasn’t at all affected by Juan’s words. She smiled faintly and said, “Mrs. Seet, I did bring
something for you today, but it’s not something valuable, and I hope you won’t mind it.”
“Of course not. I like whatever gifts you have for me.”
Sally handed over a delicate rectangular box to Nicole. “Mrs. Seet, I drew this myself. You’re like an
angel in white to me, and I’ve decided to gift this painting to you. I hope you like it.”
“Thank you!”
Nicole took over the box and rolled open the drawing. It was a painting of a woman in a white dress,
resembling an angel descended from the heavens. She looked youthful, beautiful, and elegant.
