Chapter 549: Step by Step Pressure, Danger Approaching 2
Putting down the small toy in her hand, Emily Walker pursed her lips. It looked like she wouldn’t be touching these little things anymore, at least not until the arrival of the next baby; she didn’t want to.
“Let’s go look at others!” She strode over and, taking Baron Stuart’s arm, started to head towards the adult section.
To get to the adult section, they had to turn back.
Apparently, Zachary Stuart did not expect them to suddenly turn around. He was somewhat caught off guard, and seeing that he and his bodyguards were about to be discovered, he quickly grabbed two little bear dolls; one to cover his face and the other to cover the face of his bodyguard.
Lucky he acted so swiftly!
Just as Zachary Stuart was privately relieved, Baron Stuart, who had just walked past them, suddenly stopped.
His sharp eyes narrowed, shifting his gaze to the pair whose heads were covered by the little bear dolls.
Grandpa? Why is he here?
Seeing his sudden halt, Emily Walker was somewhat taken aback and turned her head to look at him, “What’s the matter?”
Baron Stuart softly chuckled, “Nothing.”
Then, encircling her, he continued to walk forward.
Glimpsing the pair walking further away, Zachary Stuart put down the little bear doll in his hand and wiped a cold sweat.
Man! Why does he have to sneak around when following his own grandson? This feeling is really… not good!
He continued his pursuit!
This brat, he must have dressed on purpose!!
Look, look! He’s sucked up all the attention in the shopping mall!
Back in the day, he had also had such a scene…
Watching the gradually receding figures before him, the picture in Zachary Stuart’s mind suddenly became one from decades ago…
A petite and pretty figure, always revolving around him at every moment, the clear, lovable face, too, was filled with a smile just like hers…
“Master, Young Master has gone far.”
Seeing him stand there, gazing into the distance, his bodyguard by his side couldn’t help but remind him.
Zachary Stuart abruptly came back to his senses and did see the two figures disappear into a corner.
“Hurry up and follow!”
Thinking about what had just occurred, Emily Walker’s mood had somewhat darkened, and ultimately, her mood to go shopping disappeared.
She aimlessly wandered about the spacious mall, and Baron Stuart by her side seemed different than usual, too.
With her current depressed demeanor, if it were any other day, Baron Stuart would have noticed by now. He would surely ask her: What’s the matter?
But today, why does he seem so preoccupied?
Emily Walker turned her head, occasionally observing the expression on Baron Stuart’s face, noting how his gaze was somewhat divergent.
“Hm?” Baron Stuart came back to his senses upon hearing her voice and turned to look at her.
“What’s the matter?” She looked at him, somewhat dumbfounded. His obviously unhappy appearance and the fact that she couldn’t feel his happiness at all, could it be that he found dating her boring?
So after all this time, was she the only one enjoying herself?
“Nothing.” Baron Stuart returned to his senses and only then did he realize that they had unknowingly arrived at the exit of the shopping mall.
And Emily Walker’s hands were empty; she had bought nothing.
He glanced at the vast array of goods behind him, then turned his head to look at the woman beside him, “What’s the matter? You’re not buying anything?”
“…” She had come this far and only now he noticed she hadn’t bought anything?
Her hand loosened suddenly.
Emily Walker, slightly angry, walked towards the entrance of the shopping mall alone.
After all the anticipation she had for their date today, turns out he was just unwillingly accompanying her!?
Looking at her walking off alone towards the shopping mall entrance, Baron Stuart furrowed his eyebrows.
