One Night Surprise

Chapter 520 Knit for Me

Once they’d crossed the road, the frightened woman took the child from Mike’s hand. This time, her plain and elegant face was stained with tears.

Then, she squatted down and wrapped her arms around the little girl, seeming like she had exhausted all her strength just to feel her presence. Then, Mike heard a slight whimper and frowned before walking away.

It wasn’t his strong suit to witness a woman’s fragility.

Just as he took a step away, a delicate little hand hooked his finger, and a hint of warmth flowed into his blood along the fingertip.

When he turned his head, his cold face did not reflect the warmth in his heart. The little girl looked at him with big clear eyes, and despite his slight struggle to free himself, her little hand stubbornly grabbed onto his index finger.

“What do you want?”

His tone was not friendly.

“Thank you, mister.”

The little one squinted as she smiled at him. Then, she handed the balloon to him and repeated, “Thank you, mister. My name is Cadance Mint.”

When the girl’s mother finally came to her senses, she looked up at Mike with an apologetic smile. Then, she wiped her tears on her face and reached for something in her bag.

Mike watched her and saw that she was taking out all the cash in her bag after a while. She was about to stuff them into his hand as his face turned gloomy. His hands were just hanging by his side motionlessly.

“Don’t get me wrong. You’re a good person. You’ve saved Cadance, and I don’t know how to express my gratitude. So, this is just a little something from me.”

When the woman noticed the unhappy expression on Mike’s face, she quickly explained incoherently. However, he was in shock when he heard the sentence from the woman’s mouth; he couldn’t hide his panic. ‘You are a good man.’

It was rare for anyone to compliment him like that.

He wasn’t a good guy. His hands are dirtied with blood. He was a demon.

“It’s okay.”
