My Dreamy Old Husband

In the end, the little girl held the hands of both her ‘fathers’ and left. She took a few steps before she turned her head back with tears flowing down her cheeks and bade Sophia farewell. “We’re leaving now, Miss.”

Cooper decided to come over from the other room only after they had left. He frowned as Sophia stared at the empty seat whilst her mind wandered.

Cooper consoled his daughter as he said, “It’s okay, darling. Even though this didn’t work out for you, I will find a better one for you!”

This was Sophia’s first attempt at matchmaking. Although she did not feel good for having failed the first time, she replied to her father, “It’s okay, dad. Don’t get mad. I didn’t really expect much from this anyway. I was only trying to have a feel of what matchmaking is like. Come and sit down, dad. Let’s eat.”

In a shopping complex nearby at that very moment, Stanley, the so-called ‘gay conman’, was pacing along the complex with Sean carrying his clothes and bag. He had the little girl sitting on his shoulders with her legs around his neck.

The little girl was still in tears.

Stanley asked with a frown, “Why are you still crying?”

“I was too deep into my act…” she answered chokingly.

Sean wiped her tears and gently consoled her, “Alright, darling. Don’t cry. It was all a show just now! Aren’t we supposed to be getting your present ready for daddy? We won’t make it if you’re still crying.”

Stanley was invited to a matchmaking arrangement the day before by a peer in the industry. While he was reluctant to attend the matchmaking, he could not decline his business partner’s offer, so he got the little girl to put on a show to scare the match-making partner away.

She was only supposed to be acting as his daughter, but the little girl went far too deep into her character, and she turned him into a malicious gay man who was trying to con Sophia into marriage. She’s so dramatic!

With a little bit of coaxing from Sean, the little girl, who was initially pouting, finally chuckled. It was already midday by the time the three of them shared a meal and headed back home.

Their car soon arrived in front of The Imperial Villa No.8. Stanley got out with the girl in his arms before he swiped the door lock with his access card, while Sean parked the car.

The little girl was giggling and chuckling while she chatted with Stanley.
