Chapter 949 She Can't Be Overwhelmed With Sympathy

This child was too precocious, wasn't she?

Was this something a four-or five-year-old could say?

Amanda seriously doubted it.

She rolled over, "I'm sleepy, and I'm going to bed."

Nina crawled over her and into her arms, "Just think about it."

Amanda didn't know how to talk to her, so she just pretended to sleep.

Nina shook her while she didn't move or say anything. After doing this a few more times, Nina felt
bored and let go, then lay in her arms and mumbled, "It's early. Why are you so sleepy?"

Amanda was speechless.

She muttered in her mind, "It's late, okay?”

After a while, Nina fell asleep and Okeydokey also fell asleep at the end of the bed. Amanda thought to
herself that the puppy looked a lot like its owner.

Seeing that Nina was sleeping peacefully, she didn't move and just let her sleep in her arms.

Then she also slowly fell asleep.

Probably because she was in a strange place, she didn't sleep well, but waked up several times during
the night and got up early in the morning.

She put Nina down and got up, then sat up in bed and rubbed her aching arms. She was afraid that
Nina would wake up, so she hadn't changed positions all night and her arms were numb from being



pillowed.

Knock-knock ...

There was a knock on the door of the room.

Amanda said come in, and then the door to the room was pushed open. She expected it to be the maid
this early in the morning, yet it wasn't, but Joan. His eyes crossed to her to see the little girl lying
behind her and frowned slightly, "She disturbed your rest last night, didn't she?"

"No," Amanda said.

Joan nailed her lie very bluntly, "So why didn't you rest well?"

Amanda blinked.

He said, "You've got dark shadows under your eyes."

Amanda was speechless.

She was thinking to herself that this man was not only a scumbag but also very dull.

"Let me help you up." Joan walked over to the bed.

"No need." Amanda waved her hand in a rush. She hadn't felt good about the man ever since she
thought he had Nina out of wedlock.

"I can do it myself." She sat down on the edge of the bed, put her feet down to put on her slippers, and
tried to stand up on her uninjured feet.

Joan didn't insist and said, "Okay. Just take care of yourself."



With that, he turned to walk out when Amanda called out to him, "Can you do me a favour?"

"What?"

"If you can, take me to the city today." Her foot would heal in a few days and she couldn't stay here all
the time. She had to go and stay in a hotel.

"You're not healed yet." Joan said.

"Well, I still have things to do, so ..."

"What do you have to do?" Nina woke up in a daze. Her sleepiness dissipated at the sound of her
voice, and instead, she sat up and looked at her and asked.

Amanda turned around. When did this difficult little girl wake up?

Nina rubbed her eyes, "I thought you said you were going to be my mother. How can you leave?"

Amanda was speechless.

When did she say that?

"Are you not awake?" Amanda asked.

Nina tilted her head. Her hair was a mess, but it couldn't hide her small, white cheeks, "I'm wide
awake."

"Then you must have been dreaming. I didn't promise you to be your mother." She couldn't afford to be
overwhelmed with sympathy for such things.

This little girl was endearing and it was heartbreaking that she longed for a mother because she didn't
have one, but she couldn't just agree to such things.



Nina blinked, and tears gradually welled up in her eyes.

Amanda got flustered for a moment, "Well, you should ask your dad for your mommy. I can't really be
your mum."

Joan came over and picked Nina up, "Sally."

Soon the maid came running over, "Sir."

"Take her to her own room and get her changed."

Nina hugged Joan's neck and wouldn't let go, "Daddy."

"Do as you're told." Joan patted her head, "Don't you want to go to the amusement park? I'm taking you
there today, so be a good girl and do as you're told."

"Really?" Nina's eyes were wide open. There were still tears in her eyes, but she was smiling.

"Really." Joan replied affirmatively.

"Thank you, I love you." With that, she kissed Joan on the cheek and then followed the maid out
obediently.

When Nina left, Joan spoke, "Because she has no mother, so ..."

"That's why you should have married her mother, otherwise Nina would have been prone to having
flaws in her character. I think, as a man, you have to have a sense of responsibility."

Amanda interrupted him and gave a lecture.

Joan looked at her quietly for two minutes.



Amanda's scalp was tingling from the look he was giving her, and she didn't know what he meant.

Was he angry that she had rebuked him?

But he had let a woman have a child and then didn't want the woman anymore, just the child. That kind
of behaviour was indeed unethical.

"Well, I mean ... that ..."

Amanda explained for a long time without coming up with a good answer.

"Breakfast is almost ready. Just wash up." With that, he turned to leave.

Amanda was speechless.

Had she offended the man who had taken her in for the night?

But even if he had taken her in for the night, there was really something wrong with his character.

She limped to the bathroom, which was prepared with toiletries. And after she washed up, she limped
out again.

Nina was already wearing a pink lace dress with a braid and a little flower on her head. Her eyes were
wide open and when her eyelashes fluttered, she looked like a doll.

Amanda looked at her face and thought that her mother was definitely not a Thai. Because she was
more like someone from a Western country.
