Cindy stared at Sawyer intently. Amos and him clearly looked like two different people, but why did Sawyer's instinctual actions remind her of the other?
Sawyer had already carried Sugar Bun with both arms just as she was thinking about that.
"Little master, don't call just anyone 'Dad'. I'm not your father!"
Cindy snapped out of her daze and quickly went forwards to take Sugar Bun back from Sawyer.
"I'm sorry!"
Sawyer shook his head and walked towards Sugar Bun as he bid farewell in a solemn manner.
"Sugar Bun, thank you for liking me. I'm very happy with that, but people eventually have to part ways. Even when we've parted ways, it doesn't mean we won't meet again! As long as you grow up well, we might have a chance to meet again in the future!"
Cindy stood there awkwardly and listened to the conversation between Sawyer and Sugar Bun. She felt utterly helpless! Sugar Bun was still a young child, so how could he understand anything Sawyer said?
Unexpectedly, in the next second, Sugar Bun, who had been trying to break free from her embrace to play with Sawyer, suddenly quieted down.
He just stared blankly at Sawyer as if he was saying goodbye to an old friend.
Cindy was shocked, "Little master, you're..."
Sawyer no longer said anything. Waving his hand at Sugar Bun, he turned around and left the residence.
Once Sawyer's figure had left the doorway, Cindy turned around and noticed that Sugar Bun was pouting, eyes bloodshot.
Cindy quickly hugged him and said, "Don't cry, Little master! You want to play with blocks, don't you? I'll play them with you! I'll play with you when we get home!"
As Eudora was in a daze, her phone started ringing.
Eudora answered the call, only to hear Harley's anxious voice.
He said, "Eudora, are you at home?"
"Yes," Eudora replied. "I'm home. What's wrong?"
"Do you have time now? Thea wants to meet you."
"Oh, okay! I'll head over there now!" said Eudora while nodding.
"Ask your driver to bring you here then!"
At the mention of Sawyer, Eudora paused for a moment.
She continued, "There's no need for that. I'll drive there on my own. Sawyer is no longer working for me!"
"What?" Harley shouted in shock. "Eudora, why did you let him go?"
Upon hearing Harley shouting at her, Eudora was taken aback.
"What's wrong? He left because he has his own life to live! It's his own choice..."
"But..." Harley felt anxious and was about to say something, but he eventually chose to remain silent.
"Do you know where he has gone?"
Eudora shook her head as she answered, "I really have no clue about that."
"Alas!" Harley sighed and continued, "I just recalled that Thea wants to go to the amusement park. You don't have to come over today! We're going out soon. I'll hang up now!"
After that, Harley ended the call.
Eudora looked at her phone in confusion.
What was Harley up to?
As she had already woken up, Eudora could not fall back asleep. Thus, she chose to get up from her bed.
After washing up, she went downstairs. The living room was quiet, which felt strange to her. Usually, whenever Sugar Bun was awake, it would not be so quiet.
