Chapter 1222: Chapter 1222: Belinda Howard, do you like the violin? Chapter 1222: Chapter 1222: Belinda Howard, do you like the violin? She wiped away her tears, pouted her tiny lips, and did not answer Jose Pearce’s question.
For her, Jose Pearce had a great deal of patience. He had never dealt with children before but he seemed to be especially fond of the little Belinda Howard, perhaps because of the saying “love me, love my dog.”
He took out a gift he was holding, with its exquisite wrapping, and handed it to Belinda Howard.
Although the gift was covered by the box, Belinda Howard could still tell what it was at a nce, and immediately, a look of bewilderment washed over her wronged little face.
She looked up at the Uncle Chu standing before her and couldn’t help whispering softly, “It’s… a violin.”
Jose Pearce smiled. She had finally stopped crying.
“Here, for you. Do you like it?” he asked, his tone like he was seeking her approval.
Belinda Howard lowered her head and looked at the gift in her hands once again.
“Uncle Chu, how did you know Belinda Howard likes violins?”<fn8888> ?????? ???? findnovel</fn8888>
Hearing her daughter’s words, Cam Walker was somewhat surprised.
Belinda Howard likes violins? Why didn’t she ever know about that?
Jose Pearce smiled, “Well, first tell uncle, do you like it?”
Children will be children. As soon as they see a beloved gift, all their guardse down. Belinda Howard silently nodded her head, “I like it!”
“Then it’s for Belinda Howard. Don’t cry anymore, okay?” Jose Pearce said with a smile, gently coaxing her. To onlookers, this scene resembled a loving fatherforting his daughter.
Receiving the gift, Belinda Howard temporarily forgot her grievances and worries and began to unwrap it, revealing it was indeed a delicate little violin inside!
Seeing her daughter so excited, Cam Walker was utterly perplexed and couldn’t help but ask, “Belinda Howard, you like the violin?”
Focused intently on stroking the violin in her hands, Belinda Howard nodded without lifting her head, “Mm-hmm!”
“Then, why haven’t you ever mentioned it to mommy?” Her whole life, she had tried to fulfill all her daughter’s desires, not wanting to see her daughter upset.
At this, Belinda Howard just pursed her lips and said nothing.
Seeing her daughter silent, Cam Walker suddenly seemed to remember something.
She recalled thatst birthday, Anthony Chambers had given her a gift – a toy violin. Ever since then, Belinda Howard often yed with it. She thought Belinda Howard just liked to y with it…
But…
She turned her head, looking at Jose Pearce with a puzzled expression.
How did he know Belinda Howard liked the violin? Or was it just a coincidence?
Jose Pearce stood up, seeing the delight covering her small face, he, of course, felt happy too.
He turned to look at Cam Walker, “How about going out for a meal in a little while?”
His sudden invitation caught Cam Walker off guard. She pursed her lips, seemingly ready to decline.
After all, it was the weekend, and she didn’t want Belinda Howard to be alone at home.
Thinking about this, she could not help but smile, tactfully refusing, “No, thank you. I want to spend time with my daughter at home.”
She thought that by saying this, Jose Pearce would give up, but it seemed not to be the case.
He slightly curled his lips, revealing a charming smile, “Bring Belinda Howard along. Let’s go together.”
At his words, Cam Walker couldn’t help but feel bewildered.
Take Belinda Howard along for the outing?
Why did she feel it was strange when she heard that? It felt as if the entire family was going out together for a big meal…
“Maybe we should just–”
“I have a friend who just opened a restaurant, Korean cuisine. He wants me to support him, but it feels meaningless going alone, so…” He lifted his gaze, looking at Cam Walker with eyes filled with affection.
