Chapter 71 Who Does Betty Look Like?
Looking at the little girl's round eyes and adorable expression, Draxton suddenly felt that the medicine he drank was not that bitter.
Draxton said to himself, "This is my daughter who has the same blood as mine running inside. I have missed her for five years. I have no reason not to love her, spoil her.
At the thought of this, Draxton softened his cold expression.
Betty was like an angry kitten with her round eyes slightly narrowing. She did not expect the man to react like
this!
Betty was at a loss, thinking, "I planned to prank him, but it turned out that he was not angry and looked at me like that. "Humph, I'm not that easy to be tricked by him!"
At the thought of this, Betty glared at Draxton. Then she turned around and ran outside.
Draxton cried, "Slow down!" Then Draxton had a strong cough after shouting, but soon he got up and chased after Betty.
Draxton ran outside and realized that he was in a beautiful village. Quaint houses lined up one after another. The courtyard had a fence wrapped in flowers, making it look like an elf's residence. Looking around, Draxton found the village was quiet and elegant, like a paradise.
Draxton chased after Betty all the way. Draxton noticed a swing was in the middle of the courtyard, and a black panther with glossy fur was lazily lying in the corner. The black panther heard some sounds and opened one of its amber eyes, staring at Draxton coldly.
Luckily, the black panther was not going to launch an attack. Draxton sighed in relief, murmuring. "Well, looks like this is a strange village. Draxton pulled himself back from his thoughts and focused on chasing Betty.
Betty fell right in Jocelyn's arms and pouted her pink lips.
Jocelyn carried Betty in her arms and asked, "Why is my Betty sad?" Jocelyn grinned and looked at the man who was running toward them.
Betty wrapped her arms around Jocelyn's neck and buried her face in Jocelyn's neck. Betty cried, "Humph, he's trying to trick me. I won't fall for it!"
Jocelyn said with a smile, "Of course. My Betty is a smart girl. How can she fall for it so easily?"
Draxton had already walked over. He felt strange when he realized the woman in front of him looked coquettish with her dress and was not so harmonious with the quiet village. Draxton slowly greeted, "Hello, Madam. You look familiar."
Jocelyn smiled and said, "Well, you look familiar to me too."
Draxton was silent for moment. Then he took the initiative, reached out his hand, and introduced himself, "I'm Draxton Lockwood. Thank you for saving my life, Madam."
Jocelyn shook her head and said, "Well, I'm not the one you should thank. I'm not a hero who saves everyone. It's because little Betty is warm-hearted. She found that you were like donuts thrown into the sea. She couldn't bear to see sharks eat you guys, so she asked me to save you."
Draxton's lips twitched, and he was deeply offended by Jocelyn's sarcasm.
Draxton thought, "I am the chieftain of the Lockwood family. How can she describe me as a donut?"
However, Draxton cared much about the way Jocelyn called his daughter. Draxton asked, "Little Betty?"
Draxton looked at the girl who faced him with the back of her head in Jocelyn's arms. Draxton's gaze instantly softened, and he asked, "Is Betty her nickname?"
Draxton murmured, "Betty, Ricky. These names are so cute."
When Betty heard Draxton call her by her nickname, Betty immediately turned around and looked at Draxton, crying, "Call me Little Queen Betty!"
Betty proudly raised her chin when she spoke.
Jocelyn patted Betty's head softly. Draxton noticed the intimate interaction between Betty and Jocelyn and

knew that the woman in front of him must be a special person for Isabella Thompson.
Draxton asked, "Little Queen Betty, would you mind giving me a hug?"
Draxton opened his arms to Betty.
Betty replied, "Humph, I won't touch a stranger. Who do you think I am?"
As she spoke, Betty looked at Draxton in disdain.
Watching Betty, Draxton could not say a word.
Draxton felt that this kid's arrogant personality was familiar, murmuring, "Who exactly does she look like?"
In the Dawton City. Patriarch Lockwood and Madame Emma Lockwood walked out of the kindergarten with Ricky, carrying their small schoolbags.
They quit their jobs as Ricky's "babysitters" and became kindergarteners.
They attended classes and played with the children. It was strange, but the kindergarten did not dare to refuse these two big figures.
Patriarch Lockwood asked, "It's my turn to be Ricky's deskmate tomorrow, right?"
Madame Emma Lockwood said, "Humph, you didn't even get a star today. Why can you be deskmates with Ricky? I'll still be Ricky's deskmate tomorrow!" Madame Emma Lockwood proudly raised her chin.
Patriarch Lockwood was so angry that his face turned green, but he did not dare to talk back. Instead, he clenched his fists angrily and shouted, "I will get a star tomorrow!" Madame Emma Lockwood showed a contemptuous smile and said, "Really, you?"
Patriarch Lockwood was so angry that he could not hold back his anger. Then he was about to fight with Madame Emma Lockwood. Ricky was walking between them. When noticing the tension, Ricky hurriedly said, "Great-grandpa, great-grandma, stop it. Both of you can't decide whether you can sit with me. You have to follow the teacher's arrangement."
Patriarch Lockwood and Madame Emma Lockwood immediately became nervous. They both thought, "That's right. We have to follow the teacher's arrangements. Well, can I sit with Ricky tomorrow?" Patriarch Lockwood immediately became smug and said, "See? We have to follow the teacher's arrangements tomorrow."
Madame Emma Lockwood retorted, "Damn, Patriarch, what are you thinking? Do you think Ricky wants an old man to be his deskmate?
"Ricky prefers a gentle and amiable deskmate like me."
Patriarch Lockwood murmured, "Boys and girls aren't supposed to be socializing."
Madame Emma Lockwood sneered and said, "Things have changed! Stop talking like an old folk! Damn it."
Patriarch Lockwood retorted in a low voice, "You were the one who said that last time!"
Madame Emma Lockwood raised her chin and said proudly. "Whatever I say is right and whatever you say is wrong because you are not me."
Patriarch Lockwood was speechless.
Patriarch Lockwood sighed and said to himself, "I spoiled her too much. What can I do?"
In the Lotus Village.
Betty did not allow Draxton to hug her. Then she pointed at the house behind them and said, "Aren't you going in to check your companions? They're dying!"
A mischievous smile appeared on Betty's face.
Draxton noticed that smile and knew that Betty was messing with him again. However, Draxton cooperated and showed a panicked expression. Then he hurriedly ran into the house. Betty was finally satisfied.
Betty and Jocelyn entered the house later and saw Draxton standing in front of the bed.
Lying on the bed, Silas Yanter had been awake for a while. Silas had woken up several times. Silas alreadyTêxt © NôvelDrama.Org.

knew the situation here and learned that a thin old man saved his life. Silas had also seen Betty.
When Silas saw Betty, he was stunned. By looking at Betty's appearance, Silas knew that Betty was Mr. Lockwood's child.
Silas cried, "Mr. Lockwood!"
Silas was very excited when he saw Draxton. Silas struggled to get up, but Draxton held Silas down. Draxton warned, "Lie down and don't move."
Silas's injuries were more severe. He had been shot in the abdomen, the edge of his heart, and his calf.
The worst thing was that they were all poisoned.
The skinny old man treated Silas's wounds, and Betty was responsible for the detoxification.
Draxton asked Silas, "How do you feel?"
Silas replied, "Mr. Lockwood, I feel better now. The doctor and Betty said that I'll recover soon after taking
some rest."
