Chapter 1516: The Childlike Couple

Monica was a bit surprised, "How did you know I wanted to play with the claw machine tonight? Even the coins were ready. Are you a worm in my stomach?"

"It doesn't have to be tonight. There's an empty storage box at your place, and my idea is that it must be filled sooner or later." Tristan had actually asked Kevin to prepare the card yesterday. Monica happily browsed the claw machines, there were so many styles. Tristan stood by her side, feeling much younger in an instant.

At night, in the brightly lit little western-style house.

Belinda, who was about to clean up the dishes, looked up at the sound of footsteps and saw Algerone Swain appearing at the door again. She stopped what she was doing, obviously taken aback. "Let me do it." Algerone headed towards the dining table, diligently helping with the dishes.

Belinda looked at him somewhat stunned, and after a while, she asked, "Didn't you have an emergency at the company? How are you back so soon?" By her calculations, he shouldn't have reached the company yet.

"It was taken care of." Algerone Swain made three trips to get all the dishes into the kitchen, placing them into the dishwasher.

Belinda sat down on the sofa, steadying her emotions, "What are you doing back? Our daughter has gone out."

"I'm not looking for our daughter." The man stood in front of the coffee table, looking down at her, and after thinking for a moment, he opened his mouth, "I've been thinking about something lately and wanted to discuss it with you."

Considering he was single at the moment, Belinda's attitude naturally softened, "Go ahead."

Although her tone was a bit cold, she was still curious about what he had to say.

"Should we consider remarrying for our daughter's sake?" Algerone Swain also sat down on the sofa.

Belinda looked up suddenly, her eyes full of resentment, "For our daughter?" It was simply... speechless!

"Yes, that's correct." Algerone Swain was quite straightforward, and didn't grasp her meaning, smiling, "We shouldn't affect our daughter's views on love and marriage."

Belinda was very unhappy, she rolled her eyes at him, surprised that his reason for wanting to remarry was not because of lingering feelings, or not wanting to miss out again. For their daughter?

"My daughter's views on love and marriage are very normal, you don't need to worry." Belinda was truly upset, speaking coldly, "If there is nothing else, you're free to go."

Her attitude was like a bucket of cold water poured over Algerone Swain's head. He had mustered the courage to discuss this, but she had...

Perhaps it was premature, or maybe... he shouldn't have said it in the first place? Either way, an awkward silence descended in the living room...

Algerone Swain was a bit awkward when it came to emotions, having been single for so many years.

So, after a minute of silence, he really did get up and leave.

Watching the man's retreating figure, Belinda became even more frustrated. It would have been better if he hadn't come at all!

Listening to the sound of the car engine, she felt as if her chest was blocked, her mood extremely bad!

At night, the youthful arcade was filled with flickering lights and noisy sounds.

It must be said that Tristan's claw machine skills were top-notch. There was a shopping cart next to him, almost filled with toys. Monica stood in front of him, his large hand holding hers, teaching her once again.

"Wow! Caught another one!"

The girl jumped up excitedly, her childlike joy enveloping her.

"Good job!" He complimented.

"I'll try it myself!"

"Okay!" Tristan let go of her hand.

Tristan set his phone to silent, devoting his full attention to playing with her.

He was also a man of his word, getting Monica home before ten o'clock.

When they entered the house carrying two large bags of toys, Belinda thought it was childish, "Monica, why are you still playing with him? He is a respected CEO, if the media caught wind of this, the news would be outrageous!"
