Substitute Bride: Utterly Pampered by Her Billionaire Husband Chapter 1667: The Child

Danielle recognized Ethan Barnes and gave him a sweet smile.

Ethan Barnes’s resolute heart melted, because he realized that every time Danielle saw him, she would smile at him.

At that moment, a black van sped towards them, and several men in black got out, looking aggressive.

Ethan Barnes recognized them; they were Samuel Barnes’s men.

It seems Samuel Barnes’s men had discovered something, and they came looking for him.

Ethan Barnes swiftly dodged and hid in the nearby bushes.

A few fierce-looking men in black pulled out a photo and angrily asked people, "Have you seen this person?"

"No, we haven’t seen this person."

Because Ethan Barnes had just arrived, no one had noticed him yet, and he secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

Just then, a few men in black approached Danielle, "Little kid, I’m asking you, have you seen this person?"

Danielle was holding a doll. She looked at the photo and recognized Ethan Barnes.

Ethan Barnes quickly became alert, watching Danielle. Danielle was still young, if she said anything...

At that moment, Danielle nodded, "I’ve seen this person."

What?

"Little kid, where did you see this person, and where is he now?" The men in black were excited.

Hiding in the bushes, Ethan Barnes unconsciously reached for his waist...

Then Danielle pointed her little finger toward the crossroads ahead, "I just saw the man driving his car there."

"Damn, let’s chase him quickly, don’t let him escape this time!" The men in black immediately jumped into the car and sped off in the direction Danielle pointed.

Ethan Barnes relaxed completely, not expecting Danielle to be so quick-witted in protecting him.

Everyone around Danielle had walked away. Ethan Barnes took the opportunity to come out and went to Danielle’s side, "Kid, why did you help me? Aren’t you afraid I might be a bad guy?"

Danielle looked up at him with her delicate little face and smiled brightly, "Uncle’s not a bad person, you know."

Ethan Barnes wanted to reach out and tease her little face but refrained, "Kid, why do you smile whenever you see me?"

"Because that day in the elevator, when you were staring at me, my mommy said you’re a good man. Mommy also said maybe you were staring because you like me." Danielle said in her childlike voice.

Ethan Barnes’s heart stirred, realizing she had spoken well of him in front of her daughter.

Although she didn’t want him to disrupt their peaceful mother-daughter life, she didn’t hate or resent him, showing gentleness.

Ethan Barnes suddenly noticed Danielle’s eyes looked very much like his own, revealing she was his own flesh and blood.

"Kid, where’s your mommy?"

Danielle pointed with her hand, "Uncle, my mommy is over there, talking on the phone."

Ethan Barnes turned to look, Celeste Linden was parked here for gas; she stood aside on the phone, listening seriously, her profile calm and lovely.

Ethan Barnes looked away, "Kid, don’t run around, otherwise your mommy won’t be able to find you."

"I know." Danielle’s big eyes were full of liveliness and cleverness.

"I’m leaving." Ethan Barnes got into the car and drove away.

At this moment, Celeste Linden finished her call and walked over, "Danielle, let’s get in the car."

"Mommy," Danielle grabbed Celeste Linden’s hand and pointed in Ethan Barnes’s departing direction, "I just saw the uncle from the elevator, he even asked where you were."
