The Fearsome Dragon Warrior

"Sir, your steak is ready." The waitress smiled and spoke sweetly as she brought over a plate of steak to the table.

Jacob watched his daughter fumbling clumsily with her fork and knife to cut the steak on her plate. He smiled at waved at the waitress. "Thank you. Put it down then."

A vibrating sound was heard all of a sudden.

"Excuse me. I'll take this call outside." The young man smiled at Moira apologetically. Then, he picked up his phone and headed toward the restaurant's exit.

Moira watched as he left. Her face darkened as she put down the fork and knife in her hands. She got up and walked toward Jacob.

Heidi sat at her place and watched. Her eyes widened in bewilderment.

"Why are you here?" She looked at the face that she once thought was handsome. Now he looked despicable. She lowered her voice and growled through her teeth. "Are you following me?"

"What a coincidence," Jacob replied calmly. "I heard the steak here is good, so I came to have a taste since I was passing by."

He paused for a while and frowned. "But can you not bring my daughter along the next time you go on a date? She will feel bored with no one playing with her."

Moira's chest heaved slightly. "My bringing of Heidi out on a date has got nothing to do with you!"

"She is my daughter!" Jacob showed a trace of the domineering attitude befitting the Warlord of Bare Dragons.

Moira felt threatened after his exuding proclamation. Her expression froze, and she took two steps back unconsciously.

She was silent for a while. She turned around and saw that the young man was heading back. She took a deep breath and gritted her teeth hard. "Hah! Don't even dream of having Heidi's custody rights!"

"You need not worry about that." Jacob had calmed down and regained his expression. He picked up the fork and knife on the table and said, "No one can stop me from getting my daughter back."

Moira glared at him. Then, she turned around and left.

A few minutes later, she spoke coquettishly to the young man opposite her. "I'm going to use the washroom for a moment. Please help me look after Heidi."

"Sure, no problem." The young man smiled.

Moira glared at Jacob from the corner of her eyes when she passed by him.

Jacob shrugged. He winked at his daughter. She blinked and quickly retracted her gaze.

A while later, just as Jacob was about to perform another trick for his daughter, he suddenly saw her frown and put down her cutleries.

"Little girl, what's wrong?" The young man noticed Heidi's change of expression. He smiled and asked her gently.

"My tummy hurts!" Heidi curled her body and pressed onto her tummy with a frown.
