Penny touched the little pig in her arms and said, “But this pig is not as fat as mummy said, how can I eat it?”
Caleb held his forehead, not wanting to talk at all now.
He did not know that since Alina was actually a foodie, so this little girl, too, had a bit of a foodie trait.
But to say that the little girl is a foodie.
Yet at the sight of the untouched dinner on the table.
Caleb asked, “Why don’t you eat?”
“It’s not good, it’s not as good as Grandma Megan’s cooking.” Penny bristled, her face full of aggression.
Caleb’s heart tugged even more when he looked at the child’s aggrieved look.
After all, Penny has lived over in Shirling all her life and is therefore naturally more accustomed to the flavours there.
Especially since she has always been in the Lawson family, and from listening to Penny’s words, those in the family seemed to treat both Penny and Alina well.
Otherwise, Alina would not have been in a hurry to go back to Shirling after the matter in Ingford was finished.
Look at the child’s big fluttering eyes, Caleb rubbed the top of the child’s hair very dotingly and said, “Then what do you want to eat? I’ll make it for you.”
“Fish.”
“What kind of fish?”
No wonder the girl is so smart, she loves fish.
Penny, “The kind without bones.”
Looking at the cute look of the child, Caleb looked at the time on his wristwatch again and immediately made a phone call and asked Tomas to go and buy fish.
And Tomas was dizzy when he got the call.
The fish market is now closed for the night, but Caleb has a strong attitude, as if he is a sinner if he doesn’t get the fish tonight.
It made Tomas, who had just arrived home, scrambling to buy fish again.
But things like fish usually have to be bought in the morning, it’s not exactly cheap.
Supermarkets are about to close at this time….
…
Caleb took out his phone and searched what exactly Penny should be eating at this age, then made her a bowl of noodles to pretty much the same taste.
The result was, “It’s not good.”
In one gulp, it was spat out by Penny.
It’s not a good habit to be a picky eater, yet Caleb can’t bear to blame her.
“Penny, it’s not a good habit to be picky with your food.” She hadn’t eaten anything since lunchtime and it’s the time for her to grow up.
Penny, “But it’s not good.”
Bow her head and commiserate.
With this little look, who could force her?
Caleb looked at the time on his wristwatch again, yet Tomas hadn’t bought a fish yet.
Penny, however, was already yelling for her mother.
She had been fine a moment ago, but made a scene because she hadn’t had any fish and the taste of the food was not what she was used to.
“I want to go home, I want to find my mum.” Instantly, she burst into tears.
Caleb, “Penny, how about not looking for mommy now?”
“How much do you want this time?” Penny looked at Caleb, that look of crying was so pitiful.
Caleb met the child’s wide eyes.
Heartbroken, he took the child into his arms.
The moment she was in his arms and kept yelling for her mother, Caleb’s heart was endlessly aching.
What exactly did he do?
“Does Penny only want mother not father?” She has been looking for her mommy.
It was as if there was no one else in her world but her mother.
And Penny instantly cried more when asked if she missed her dad, “Mum says dad is a dead man, I’m scared of dead men.”
At this moment, his brain was even more ‘buzzing’, and he was surprisingly angry at this answer given to Penny by Alina.
The moment.
Caleb did not know what it was like in Alina’s heart when she was chased by Penny asking who her father really was.
And he thought that in giving this answer to Penny at that time, he had probably decided that she would never face him for the rest of her life, right?
Such was the heartbreak that Caleb’s hold on Penny tightened at this moment.
“Mummy, I want to find mummy.” The deeper the night got, the more the child cried out.
The last time he took Penny away, she had been kept at the Hongxia Villa, when Tomas was at Penny’s side.
So he didn’t know that the child would be so rowdy once it got to the end of the night.
An hour passed.
Tomas’ fish hasn’t been bought yet and the child cries more, all she wanted was to find her mother.
Caleb is going crazy with all the noise.
“Penny, don’t cry, I’ll take you to your mother when tomorrow comes.”
“Mummy, I want mummy, I want mummy.” It was no use, no matter what Caleb said now, it was no use.
She iS now very subjective and just looks for her mother.
And Caleb went from being heartbroken to now escalating straight to torment.
A child who can talk, a child who understands everything, yet in not wanting to listen to you, just crying all the time, telling you to get someone all the time, and being completely unable to communicate, that’s what breaks people the most.
After the birth of his child, Caleb had never had to worry about her, the first torturous night now came.
The child kept crying for three hours.
In the end, Tomas came with the fish.
The moment he saw Tomas, Caleb almost exploded in anger, “Did you go down to the sea to fish?”
Tomas listened to the cries of the child inside.
Even now, all the servants cannot go near the child, and whenever they do, she is designated to cry even more hysterically.
So even though Caleb was about to explode from the noise, he had to go himself.
Her voice of cry was hoarse.
“Crying like this is not the way to go, is it?” Could it be that crying like this is really because the fish didn’t work out.
Caleb scratched his hair in annoyance.
Turn around and go inside.
Carrying the fish, he went to Penny and said to her very patiently, “Penny, the fish is back, I’ll make it for you now, don’t cry, okay?”
Tomas, who came in after him, saw Penny slap the fish straight to the ground and his heart was in his throat at that moment.
This look and temper are really the same as Alina’s.
And Caleb’s nerves were jolting as he watched a snotty child did that.
“You…”
“I want my mummy, I don’t want fish, I want my mummy, you’re a bad person.” Penny snarled up.
Originally, Penny was calm and wanted to take advantage of Caleb’s lack of attention and give Alina a call.
But they had been hiding their communication devices so tightly that it annoyed Penny.
No way to get the phone and no way to get her phone watch, she lost her temper.
Probably even Alina had never seen Penny’s temper. Now, Caleb saw it.
