Chapter 967 Nice

Nina covered her mouth and laughed.

Joan stared at her, “What are you laughing at?”

“Do I laugh gracefully?” Nina continued to cover her mouth.

Joan was speechless.

He looked at the sky helplessly. What kind of kid was she?

Amanda was amused by this kid.

With Joan leading the way, Amanda and Nina just sat back in the car and did not have to worry about
anything.

“Ms. Nelson, is there somewhere you want to visit?” Joan looked at her in the rear-view mirror.

Amanda thought for a moment, “I want to burn incense and worship the gods.”

Thailand people believed in Buddhism.

“Alright.” Joan continued driving.

Soon, the car stopped.

After getting out of the car, Amanda felt the strong Buddhist culture everywhere in Thailand. Chiang
Mai had over 270 temples and there would be a temple almost a few steps apart. Furthermore, each
temple had its own style with some being splendour while some old temples were still under
maintenance.

Joan carried Nina and took Amanda to one of the three major temples in Chiang Mai, Wat Phra Singh.



They could already smell the strong scent of incense before they entered the temple.

The smoke enveloped the temple as many tourists were her to pray and visit the place.

Amanda bought the incense, “I will go in. You guys wait for me a while.”

Joan nodded his head.

When she entered the main hall, the first thing that caught her attention was a golden Buddha statue
sitting cross-legged with beads in the hand. The Buddha statue was magnificent while overlooking the
crowd.

Amanda lit the incense from the fire by the red wax. She knelt on the cushion and bowed with her
hands together while praying devoutly in her heart. ‘Bless my parents with long life and stay healthy
forever. As for the baby that died in my stomach and did not come to this world, I hope he will be reborn
soon in a good family safe and sound.’

She placed the incense into the censer after praying.

She walked out and saw Joan buying something that was wrapped in green leaves and was roasted on
the fire. She wondered what it was.

“What are you buying?” She asked.

Nina answered in the first place, “It’s Chinese olive and it’s delicious.”

“Taste it.” Joan handed it to her.

Amanda took it and said, “Thank you.”

“You’re welcome, you’re welcome. We’re a family.” Nina waved her hand.



Amanda lowered her eyes as she was slightly embarrassed.

Although they had been together for a few days and she had recognized Joan, still they were only
ordinary friends. The “ambiguous relationship” created by Nina made her uncomfortable.

“Don’t talk while you’re eating.” Joan carried her up.

Nina leaned onto him and whispered beside his ear, “Daddy, she is going to leave when her leg is fine.
If you don’t go after her, you won’t have a chance anymore.”

Joan was speechless.

“Don’t talk nonsense.”

“How am I talking nonsense. If you know something about love, you won’t be single by now. I’m trying
to help you.” Nina sighed, “It seems that I have to take action.”

“What are you going to do?” Joan vaguely sensed that something bad was going to happen.

His sense was right in the next second. She smiled and looked at Amanda, “What did you wish for
when you were praying?”

Amanda was slightly puzzled. Nina added before Amanda could think of an answer, “Was it for a
marriage?”

Amanda was speechless.

Joan was speechless either.

They thought in their mind at the same time.

‘Why is this kid so playful?’



‘How come she knows so much stuff at this young age.’

“No.” Amanda pinched her cheeks, “Kids should behave like kids.”

Nina pouted and continued speaking, “How is my daddy?”

Joan was speechless.

He covered Nina’s mouth.

Amanda knew what Nina was trying to say as Nina wanted to help Joan find a wife wholeheartedly.

“Your daddy is very nice but your daddy and I aren’t suitable. I’m not suitable to be your mother.”
Amanda stated her words clearly to Nina.

“Why?” Nina removed Joan’s hand from her mouth.

Amanda did not explain and fed her some Chinese olives in her mouth.

Nina mumbled while eating.

They strolled along the streets. The fun thing about travelling in Chiang Mai was to hang around
leisurely. They were relaxing and laughing throughout the trip.

“I want this.” Nina saw a vendor selling toys, so she reached out to get a toy.

Joan doted on her and bought the toy for her.

Amanda smiled while feeling that Nina was so lucky to have Joan.

It was rare for him, an unmarried man, to have such a loving heart.

They passed by a classy silk store. On the sign, it claimed that they were specialized in Thai silk.



Amanda walked into the store.

She was attracted to a light grey scarf. It looked brilliant and was so soft to touch.

“It’s one hundred per cent Thai silk. You won’t find such quality apart from our store.”

Amanda was slightly familiar with fabrics since she was influenced by Dolores and heard about them
since young.

She had heard that Thai silk was very rare because the processing time was long so the price was
high. Indeed, the scarf was really nice and smooth to touch.

“Try it on to see if it looks nice,” Nina yelled.

Amanda smiled and said, “Alright.”

She felt comfortable while putting on the scarf as the fabric was so soft on her skin.

“Nice,” Nina said with a smile.

She looked herself in the mirror and nodded, “I like it too.”

“Wrap it up for me.” She took off the scarf and handed it to the promoter.

The promoter took it over and walked to the front desk. Amanda followed the promoter and took out her
wallet.

“Miss, that man has already paid for it.”

Amanda looked up.

Joan was looking at her, “I will give it as a present for you.”



“But…”

“You help me take care of Nina. Just treat it as a token of appreciation.” Joan said.

Amanda felt embarrassed, “I didn’t take care of her anyway.”

“You taught her how to draw.”

Amanda was speechless.

“Well, thank you.”

“You’re welcome.”

“Put it on,” Nina spoke.

Amanda took the scarf out of the box and draped it around her shoulder.

Nina moved Joan’s head so that he was looking at Amanda, “Look, daddy, does she look nice?”

Joan’s gaze fell on Amanda. She was indeed as beautiful as the first time he had met her. In fact, she
had inherited all the good qualities from her parents with a delicate face as well as fair skin.

However, it was just that she was less happy than before, not as bright and happy when they had first
met each other.

“Daddy, daddy, say something.” Nina pulled and shook Joan’s clothes.

Joan regained his sense and said, “Nice.”

Nina laughed.



Payne was shopping with her best friend outside the glass window. Suddenly, they saw the three was
talking and laughing through the window.

“Hey, isn’t that Joan? Who is the woman next to him? Is she his girlfriend? She seems to be a
foreigner.” Payne’s friend saw them too.

“She is not his girlfriend. She just stays with him for accommodation!” Payne glared at her best friend.

“But they do seem quite close. Joan is known to be serious and indifferent. Now, he is shopping with a
woman. Do you think that’s normal?” Payne’s friend continued, “Staying with him for accommodation?
Did Joan tell you that? Do you believe that too?”

Payne frowned, “What do you mean?”

“I mean their relationship wasn’t that simple,” Payne’s best friend said.

Payne clenched her fist, “Joan won’t lie to me.”

She rushed into the store after saying that.
