Attracted By My Ex-wife

Chapter 485 The Dispute Ensues

Anne dialed the number from which the call had been made.

At first, she thought Colin would answer the phone but she was met by the greeting of a youthful voice. It was none other than little Ella.

"Hello?" Ella's voice was soft and sweet. She spoke well.

"Ella, you called us, right? Eddy wasn't here when you called though. What's up?" Anne said kindly.

Ella asked, "Will you and Eddy's father come to watch the show on Children's Day?"

Generally speaking, the kindergarten would be the most joyous place on Children's Day. If parents had the time, they would never miss the opportunity to be part of the festivities.

Since Kevin was on his business trip, the decision would fall upon Anne on whether to attend the event or not.

The LF Company ran smoothly so it didn't require too much of Anne's effort. In the circumstances, she thought it would be easy for her to attend.

Then Anne answered, "Eddy's father is on a business trip but I'll be there."

Frowning with suspicion, she continued, "Why did you want to ask us about it? Did your father ask you to do so?"

Without any undue hesitation, Ella answered, "My father is also on a business trip so he won't be home in time to attend the Children's Day. I don't have any company."

Anne raised her eyebrows. She hadn't anticipated that Colin would also be away at this time.

So Ella's intentions were clear...

Anne laughed, "I can pick you up."

She didn't sense any underhandedness with the call. This little girl just wanted some company for Children's Day.

It was normal for most parents to accompany their kids on Children's Day. That was how it worked. It was natural that Ella would feel alone and disheartened if she didn't have anyone to accompany her.

But Anne hadn't initially thought this little one would have thought that way.

Eddy pulled a face. He tugged urgently at Anne's clothes with a disapproving look.

Anne pinched Eddy's little face. But Eddy turned around and stomped out angrily.

'Why does mum have to take her with us?!' He thought, disgruntled.

Hearing Anne's promise to pick her up, little Ella was thrilled. She gave a few words of sincere thanks which melted Anne's heart.

After ending the call, Anne raised her eyebrows in thought. Maybe - just maybe - this lovely little girl might end up being her daughter-in-law.

If that were a possibility, she thought she ought to put more effort into it.

"Mom, I will go with you too." Simon and Sally had both come up to Anne and addressed her in unison.

Raising her eyebrows at their eagerness, and feeling a little overwhelmed, Anne just nodded.
