Chapter 936 Steven's Treat

"Daddy, I can't sleep. Can you read a story for me? I want to hear the story of Ali Baba and the Forty Thieves."

Sally urged Terence in her sweet and innocent voice as she came and stood at the door holding a doll in her arms. Sally was in her nightdress, her hair neatly tied into a braid, and her bright eyes awake as ever.

"Of course, sweetheart, let's go."

Terence smiled gently and carried his daughter in his arms.

He was lucky to have his little "sweetheart".

The day after, Carla and Terence took the kids back to the East Yard to stay there for one night.

Once he dropped them off, Terence left for work at the AJ Group.

The day unfolded as usual. Carla dropped Sally at her school and went to the club with Adonis to meet up with Violet.

Even Violet finally had some spare time after she drove Cody to school. So she took her naughty little girl to have some fun at the club.

It was a famous luxury club in JA City, that offered child care facilities for members. The staff would take care of the children so that their parents could drink tea, chat and enjoy themselves in a relaxing environment.

The club also offered several recreational facilities suitable for both adults and children.

However, despite all the upgraded facilities and assured safety for children, Carla was unwilling to let go of Adonis. She sat on the sofa with her son and looked at Violet's daughter playing with a ball. Violet made herself comfortable on the sofa supervising her daughter. She let out a smile as she was watching the little girl play joyfully in front of her.

"Carla, why don't you let them take care of Adonis for you for a while? Aren't you tired of carrying him all the time?"

Violet said while taking a sip of the juice.

"It's okay. My son is still too small to be left alone with strangers. He still needs to be on his mother's lap to feel safe and comfortable. Besides, I have Carol to help me," Carla said as she looked at little Adonis who was looking around curiously.

It was not because she didn't trust the staff who worked in that club, but she had just come back a few days earlier. Only she knew how difficult it was for her to be away from her newborn child. So she wanted to make up for it. Carla wanted to spend as much time as possible with her son. How could she hand him over to someone else?

Being a mother herself, Violet could understand Carla's feelings. She suggested, "Carla, how about hanging out with me and leaving the kids at home?"

"Where do you want to go?" Carla said while helping Adonis drink water from a glass tumbler. Suddenly, her phone rang. "Sorry, I have to take this call," said Carla.

It was Cindy on the other side.

"Carla, are you available this afternoon? Do you remember that Steven said he wanted to treat all of us to dinner or something? It would be great if you and Mr. An could come?

Cindy said over the phone.

The very mention of Steven made her feel

ok the two bottles and saved a bottle for Debra in case she took his drink later.

"Hello, handsome. I'm Violet Bai. May I have your name?"

Violet greeted Steven enthusiastically. Now that they were going to spend the afternoon together, Violet thought that they must at least know how to address each other.

"… Hi, I'm Steven Su."

Steven said with a polite smile while shaking hands with Violet.

"The name sounds a bit familiar."

Violet frowned and tried to recall when and where she had heard this name before but she failed.

Violet and Steven had never been introduced. They had only heard each other's names. So it was normal that they didn't really know each other.

"It's getting late, Steven. Let's get inside now,"

Cindy said as she held his arm and blocked Violet from him.

"Are they a couple?" Violet muttered as she saw the two of them walking away. And one thing that preoccupied her mind was where she could have heard Steven's name?

"Carla, why does Steven's name sound so familiar? Have I heard it somewhere before?"

Violet racked her brain as they started walking inside.

However, before Carla could remind her, Violet snapped her fingers and asked, "Is he the same person with whom you got involved in a gossip just a few weeks back?"

"Yes. We're just friends. It was fake news, deliberately made up by someone," Carla explained as she glanced at Brian, Steven, and Cindy.

Steven seemed to have moved on already. Although he still cared about Carla, it seemed more like a friendly concern than anything else.

"Girl, I have to say. You're so lucky. Even the man you get involved in gossip with is so handsome!"

Carla rolled her eyes at Violet. Looking at Carla's face, Violet let out a cough and then pointed towards the front, saying, "This is a fun place. I saw the promotional video of this place just a few days ago. It was said that it has introduced the latest in entertainment. It is super exciting... "
