Chapter 855 Aren't You Upset

"Auntie, please put me down first," Dany stated.

Ashley looked at the little girl who didn't look back at her.

"What's wrong?" Ashley was a little confused. As far as she could remember, Dany liked being hugged before.

Was it because Cayn had said something in front of Dany?

Without any other choice, Ashley just put her down.

Meanwhile, Dany turned to look at the bodyguards behind her.

Then, Ashley watched as Dany approached the bodyguards. She didn't know what the little girl told them but they seemed a bit hesitant.

Soon enough, two of the bodyguards started walking away, leaving two of their comrades.

It turned out that Dany did like being hugged. She just asked to be put down because the bodyguards were present.

So she asked them to leave but the other two bodyguards wouldn't do so no matter what, because Cayn had ordered them to stay there.

If anything happened, they needed to report everything to Cayn.

It was very likely that Cayn had already anticipated what would happen that day.

At last, Dany looked at Ashley and said, "Auntie, you can go to work now. I'm perfectly fine here."

She then gave Ashley a wide grin.

For some reason, Ashley thought that Dany's smile looked somewhat familiar.

At that time, Andrew was looking at Dany with so much affection in his eyes.

Perhaps, Ashley was so fond of Dany because she was a girl, or maybe it was because she had been missing for so long.

Ashley wanted to say something more, but Andrew who was beside her embraced Ashley and said, "Let's go."

Andrew then looked at Dany and his eyes met hers.

Both of them were stunned.

However, Dany instantly felt some mixed feelings inside her little heart.

What she did not know was Andrew was feeling the same thing.

'He... Is he really my father?' she quietly pondered to herself.

Dany blinked her eyes a few times before staring at Andrew's back.

She was a little confused, trying to sort her feelings out. But it was clear that what she was feeling right then was completely different when she was with Cayn.

In the middle of it all, Ashley was still feeling disappointed with Andrew.

Since she couldn't control herself anymore, Ashle

dyguards."

When Andrew and Dany looked at each other just then, he perfectly understood what the little girl was thinking. It was so evident in her bright and innocent eyes.

So after noticing that Ashley seemed upset, he couldn't help but explain Dany's side.

"Really?" Ashley looked at Andrew and smiled.

"Yeah, why would I lie to you?"

"Ah, I'm so happy. So she didn't mean to do that?"

"No, she didn't." Andrew was so stunned at the amount of happiness in Ashley's face and he gently stroked her head.

Then Ashley smiled back at Andrew.

"How about we go to work now?"

Ashley suggested. She didn't go to her office yesterday because of Dany, so she should have a pile of work waiting for her today.

"Okay, that sounds good."

Andrew nodded at Ashley and got into the car with her.

While Ashley was sitting behind Andrew, the light smell of tobacco from his body made her sleepy. Soon enough, she dozed off.

She hadn't had a good rest for several days because of matters concerning Dany.

And whenever she would sleep at night, she would dream of her daughter.

So, after seeing the girl, she could finally relax. The smell of tobacco on Andrew's body was her final cue. Right away, she couldn't help but close her eyes.

Andrew adjusted her head on his shoulder so she could be more comfortable.

While he looked at Ashley's sleeping face, the corners of his mouth formed into a smile. He thought that she looked lovelier this way.
