Chapter 17 Going to the Company
Based on the previous guess, Alex thought Nancy didn't take after Mr. Brook at all.
Alex stopped conjecturing embarrassedly. He thought Mr. Brook was very handsome and well- featured. Mr. Brook had narrow and long eyes as well as a prominent nose. But the little girl had big eyes just like grapes and a delicate nose. She didn't have chubby cheeks, but she had cute and chubby lips.
So Alex concluded the little girl didn't look like Mr. Brook.
"Alex, buy some snacks that are popular among children. Cushions and blankets are also needed. You can buy other things that most children like."
James talked to Alex and then asked Nancy softly, "Nancy, what's your favorite fruit?" Property belongs to Nôvel(D)r/ama.Org.
Nancy held one of James' fingers tightly. She was timid, especially when she saw strangers in a strange environment.
"No...No."
Nancy asked in a low voice. James rubbed her fluffy hair and smoothed the hair sticking up on her head.
As soon as James withdrew his hand, the hair stuck up again. It also swayed lightly as if to greet James.
"Nancy, don't be nervous."
The Elderly Mr. Brook held Nancy's hand and comforted her in a soft voice.
"Nancy, you can do whatever you want here just like at home. You can also tell me what you want."
James standing aside was not to be outdone. "Nancy, you can tell me too. So what's your favorite fruit? If you don't have it, I'll buy various kinds of fruit."
Nancy shook her head, "Dad, it's too much. I can't finish it and I don't want to waste food."
Nancy's cheeks puffed up and said softly, "I want some grapes. It's my favorite."
"Ok. What do you want except grapes?"
Nancy shook her refusal and asked her father and grandpa, "What do you like to eat? You should also buy your favorite fruits."
"Okay. Alex, buy some strawberries. It seems that many children like them."
Alex bought all the things mentioned by James. And he saw a light pink stuffed rabbit toy in the store.
The stuffed toy was not too big and could be held with one hand. Alex remembered that Mr. Brook also asked him to buy things that most children liked. So Alex bought the toy without hesitation.
James was very busy. As the CEO of the Brook Group, he needed to deal with matters of overall importance instead of trivia. So James would attend many meetings every day and discuss with business partners for cooperation.
After James took Nancy to his office, he couldn't be with Nancy for a long time. But James was reluctant to leave.
"Nancy, you can talk to your grandpa if you need something. You can also ask secretaries outside or Uncle Alex to run errands for you, okay?"
"Just go and finish your work. I will stay with Nancy, so don't worry."
The Elderly Mr. Brook waved at James impatiently. He felt James acted like a regular old woman.
James looked at his father enviously. The Elderly Mr. Brook came to the company just to be with Nancy. James didn't want to go to work!
Nancy noticed her father's reluctance to leave. She stood up on tiptoe to kiss James' face.
Nancy said softly, "Thanks for your work."
James was elated and full of energy.
James hugged Nancy and also kissed her on the cheek.
"I work hard for the sake of you and your mother, so that you can buy all you want in the future!"
Nancy also didn't want to part from her father. James left and turned to look back repeatedly at every step.
The secretary, who came to remind Mr. Brook of a meeting, was speechless.
The secretary could understand James' feelings at the beginning, but now she just watched numbly.
The secretary just reminded James to attend a meeting. But James made her feel like a villain who forced James to part from Nancy.
She was shocked that the little girl discussed was Mr. Brook's daughter!
The secretary knew Mr. Brook had a daughter by now. And she felt Mr. Brook loved his daughter so much because he acted foolishly in front of his daughter.
In the next moment, James changed from a father who was reluctant to leave to a composed CEO who was in control of everything.
The secretary was shocked and felt Mr. Brook was quite another person when being with his daughter.
"Do you only like your Dad? What about me?"
The Elderly Mr. Brook was jealous that Nancy kissed James on the cheek. He also noticed the smug expression on James' face when James left.
Nancy shook her head quickly, and the hair stuck up also swayed with the shake of her head, "I like you too."
The Elderly Mr. Brook squatted down and pointed to his face, "Then kiss me."
Nancy kissed her mother and father before. Now she was less shy to kiss her grandpa.
Nancy kissed her grandpa on the cheek. The Elderly Mr. Brook was so happy and wore a bright smile. Now he wanted to ring his old friends up to flaunt his granddaughter.
The Elderly Mr. Brook thought no one could compare to Nancy!
"Let's go, Nancy. Let's watch cartoons!"
After getting a kiss from Nancy, the Elderly Mr. Brook took Nancy to watch cartoons in high spirits.
Nancy held her grandpa's hand and followed him step by step. Nancy sat on a comfortable chair. There was a computer playing cartoons in front of Nancy. Both the Elderly Mr. Brook and Nancy watched with great interest.
When Alex knocked on the door and came in, he saw Nancy holding the light pink stuffed rabbit toy in her arms. Nancy was as lovely as the rabbit toy.
James' chair was too big for Nancy to sit on it. So James also asked Alex to buy a set of tables and chairs. It was suitable for Nancy. Nancy felt relaxed to sitting on the new chair and leaning on the backrest.
