Chapter 956 I Like Man
He had seen Amanda when she went to visit Matthew and Dolores in the past.
He was impressed the most by her smile, and her crystal clear eyes were like stars. He could tell
through her eyes that she was a person living in happiness.
When he met Nina for the first time, he was reminded of Amanda by looking at Nina's clear eyes.
However, when he saw Amanda again, her eyes were less clear, and her smile did not give the feeling
of happiness.
He wanted to ask her what did happen to her at first, but then he felt presumptuous of asking her.
After a shower, he laid in bed for a long time and did not fall asleep.
In the early morning, a loud noise broke the silence of the house.
Amanda and Nina got up early, and Nina had a high interest. She did not eat breakfast and pestered
Amanda to draw.
When they took things and were ready to go out, a woman arrived at the house.
The woman shouted at Amanda when she saw them, “Who are you? Why are you in Joan's house?”
She looked Amanda over, up and down, when she spoke.
“She's my mom,” Nina replied. Content protected by Nôv/el(D)rama.Org.
Amanda was speechless.
She widened her eyes and stared at Nina.
Nina tugged Amanda's sleeve, and Amanda understood what she meant and bent over closer to Nina.
Nina whispered something in Amanda's ears, “This woman always likes to pester my dad, but he
doesn't like her, and I don't like her either, so just pretend as my mother to piss her off.”
Amanda was speechless.
She doubted so much, ‘Is she really a five-year-old child?’
She wondered what Nina was thinking in her mind.
“You're a kid, and you should do what a kid should do. It's your father's business, and he should settle it
himself. You can't get involved in it,” after saying that, Amanda explained to the woman in the local
language, “You took this wrong. I'm just staying here for a night, and I'll leave tomorrow.”
Amanda's foot had almost healed, and she was ready to go back tomorrow.
Payne had learned the local language of Amanda’s country and understood what she said, so she
looked a little better, “Oh.”
She would learn the local language because Joan could say the local language.
Amanda smiled politely and led Nina to go outside.
Nina was not happy, pouted, and whispered, “She is so annoying. Daddy doesn't like her, but she still
always comes to pester him.”
Amanda walked to the riverside and glanced at Nina faintly, “You're so young. Why do you care his
matter so much?”
“I don't want daddy to be disturbed,” Nina said with a grievance.
Amanda arranged the drawing board, “Children should think less.”
Nina raised her head and looked at her, “Why don't you care about my dad? He's the one who took you
in.”
Amanda was speechless.
“I pay my respects to him and thank him for taking me in, but that's it. After all, I don't know him well
either, and I definitely can't get involved in his life,” Amanda knew who she was, and she knew that she
should keep her distance from Joan.
Nina sat unhappily on the grass, “You're so hard-hearted.”
Amanda was speechless.
She prepared the paint well and picked up the brush without looking at Nina as if she was talking to
herself, “I wish to be the person like this.”
She wished to be a hard-hearted person.
In this way, she would not get hurt again and also would not think of him occasionally.
Joan was in traditional Thai casual clothes in the house. Even though he wore a white cotton blouse
and a slack, the clothes could not cover his firm body. He frowned when he saw Payne.
“Joan,” Payne walked over to him and addressed a word in his name in an intimate tone, “I'm coming to
have breakfast with you.”
She also issued an order to Sally, “Prepare a bit more food.”
She did not treat herself as an outsider.
In Thailand, Joan was a wealthy bachelor.
The number of women who adored him could fill two trucks. However, the ordinary person did not dare
to hope to marry him, and they also could not easily approach him because of his high status.
Payne was different from those people. She was the descendant of the nobility who had the status.
Joan and Payne were well-matched in social and economic status.
However, Joan did not like her.
It was not just that he did not like her. In the past twenty-nine years, nobody had heard of he had been
intimating or in love with any woman.
Many people secretly rumoured that he had a problem with his sexual orientation.
Even when he adopted Nina, some people had suspected his motive of adoption.
Of course, they said all these words behind his back.
Payne relied on her status that was equal to Joan's and always liked to pester Joan.
"By the way, who was the foreign woman? Why did you take her in?" Payne guarded against Amanda
within herself. Amanda was beautiful, and she did not seem to come from an ordinary family based on
her manner of speech and behaviour.
In such a magnificent mansion, she seemed to be relaxed and not restrained at all.
Payne had seen so many of those who had never seen the world. When those women saw something
particularly gorgeous, they became minced up, and their eyes glowed.
“I'm not familiar with her. She's the child of the family that is living in the building in front of me. I know
her parents, and she hurt her foot, so I took her in,” Joan explained to her clearly.
He knew Payne had a feeling for himself, and he was afraid she would bother Amanda.
Payne smiled after she heard Joan's words, “Oh, I see.”
“Payne, I have things to busy with today. You should return home after breakfast,” Joan turned around
and walked towards the room, and obviously, he did not want to talk to her anymore.
Payne rushed over to grab him by his arms and pouted, “I don't want to go home. Where are you
going? I'll go with you.”
Joan turned his head to look at her, “You're not young. If there is time, you should find a man for dating
instead of pestering me.”
“I want to date you.”
“But I don't like you,” Joan said bluntly, and he had said it more than once to her, “You're wasting your
time.”
Payne grabbed his arm firmly, widened her eyes, and stared at him, “What kind of woman do you like?”
Payne thought she looked good.
Joan looked at her, and Payne looked okay with slightly dark skin, but it was not a shortcoming. Most of
the people had the same skin tone in the country.
However, like and dislike a person had nothing to do with appearance.
Joan had no feeling for Payne.
