Chapter 13 Crazy Move
1068 Words
"What?" Steven was surprised. He stole a glance at Amy standing next to him, and hurriedly said to Elena, "Mom, that is not possible! They must be frauds."
"It’s none of my business!" Elena was as strong as ever. "You have to take care of this. Don't expect me to clean up the mess for you. Come back within an hour, or I'll have your bank card frozen immediately."
She completed her sentence and hung up the phone.
"Mom." Steven wanted to smash the cell phone. His wife and children had been found. Who were these liars?
Since he was afraid that Elena would really freeze his bank card, Steven decided to go back. He came forward and grabbed Amy's little hand. "Don't forget Amy, we have a date. We'll have a burger tonight. I'll pick you up from work later."
Mike saw Steven holding Amy's hand. He looked away. He didn't know why he wanted to break Steven's hands.
Amy pulled out her hand from Steven's hand quietly, "Steven, go and get down to the business. I happen to have something to say to you tonight."
Seeing Amy agreed to have a burger with him, Steven could not help but smile, "Amy, see you tonight." He looked deep into her eyes and then left reluctantly.
After Steven left, Amy realized she had a serious problem. He had brought her kids here, but she still had to work. Who would take children home?
She saw Mike standing aside and asked, "Mike, I'm not off from work yet. Can you please help me send Logan and Laurel back home?"
"OK," Mike replied gently. There was an inexplicable emotion in his eyes.
"Huh!" Susan was really perplexed. First Mike agreed to have dinner with Steven and that was shocking enough. Now, Mike even agreed to help Amy drop her children.
Mike had always been cold-hearted, she had known him for so many years, he had not dropped her personally. When did he become so kind?
Susan looked at Amy with a piercing gaze. She did not know why Steven thought Logan and Laurel were his children.
But in any case, she wouldn't allow these—Amy, Logan, and Laurel—to breathe the same air as hers. She wanted to kill them one by one.

Mike and her children picked up Amy after work.
Laurel saw Amy and happily threw herself into her arms. She took a look at Mike's face. "Mommy, Uncle Mike is so handsome. He bought me a lot of chocolates."
Logan lips twisted. "Laurel, you hopeless foodie. He is handsome because he bought chocolates for you?" Well, he had to admit that his uncle was really handsome because he also bought him transformers.
Uncle... Logan lowered his eyelids, there was a sense of loss in his eyes. In fact, he did not like to call him uncle, he preferred calling him father. Unfortunately, he was not his father.
"Mike, thank you for watching Logan and Laurel. When I get paid, I'll treat you to dinner." Amy meekly said to Mike. She did not like to owe others.
"Hmm."
Amy and Mike were not too close, but she could also feel his indifference towards things.
She thought Mike would not speak again after that word. Unexpectedly, after a moment of silence, he said, "They are very sensible."
"Huh?" Amy was in a daze. Was he talking to her?
Amy thought about what she should say next. She heard Laurel’s exclamation, "Uncle Mike is so handsome. He speaks so well. I will grow up soon, and when I grow up, I will marry him."
"Uncle Mike, you have to wait for me to grow up, I want to be your bride." Laurel affectionately said to Mike.
Logan looked at Laurel in disbelief, "Laurel, are you stupid? We and uncle Mike are relatives. Relatives are not allowed to marry."
Laurel's happy little face suddenly became sad. "But our uncle is so handsome. If I don't marry him, someone else will marry him."
Suddenly something occurred to her. Laurel smiled and said, "Mommy, you and uncle Mike are not relatives. You can marry him."
Mike’s hands on the steering wheel froze. He knew that Laurel's words were a child’s innocent rambling, but somehow he was expecting a reply from Amy.
"Cough, cough." After listening to Laurel's words, Amy almost choked to death. Her heart was already beating erratically due to the presence of Mike. Her face became flush red when Laurel brought such a sensitive topic.
Logan also looked at Amy with a look of expectation. He admitted that it was a little unfair to his daddy. But if Mommy liked uncle Mike, he would support them unconditionally.
Then they could forever be with uncle Mike. He wanted to be with uncle Mike.
Amy coughed for a while before she regained her voice. She rubbed the little head of Laurel and said with reproach, "Laurel, what are you talking about?”
"Mike, Laurel is young and ignorant. Don't listen to her nonsense. I swear, I never thought about marrying you. I never desired to be with you"
"Well." The clutched steering wheel tightly. So she didn't want to marry him. Why did his heart feel so heavy?
Mike opened the window. He didn’t feel good.

Steven's villa was next to Mike’s in San Francisco Bay. When Mike dropped Amy, Steven had just returned after meeting his family.
Just as Amy got out of the car, Steven ran in a flash and hugged her tightly. He had a big smile on his face.
Steven stroked a wisp of yellow hair that fell on his forehead. His face shone on the rear-view mirror of the sports car, so handsome and perfect.
He bent over and looked affectionately at Amy. Like a magic trick, he suddenly took out a large number of red roses in his hands. "It's for you, Amy."
Amy didn't expect to be hit so hard when she got out of the car. She felt that her waist might break.
She rubbed her waist, it hurt so much. She was so lost in her thought that she didn’t notice that Steven was slowly leaning closer to her lips. The hug was just a prelude, the peak was naturally an affectionate kiss.
Steven closed his eyes. At that moment he just wanted to be intimate with his beloved girl.
