Vera got angry. She'd clearly asked him to do as she said. Why was this little boy so sly?
"Don't play coy. Send me the address now, or I will be very angry. You know what the consequences are if I get angry."
When Beanie saw this message, he could almost imagine her face. He couldn't hold his laughter back. However, he had no choice, as he didn't like this blind date of hers.
Besides, he felt that it was fine for Sheridan to treat him to a meal. It was just to test him anyway.
It didn't matter whether or not he could afford it.
What was more important was whether he would admit it.
"Auntie Vera, don't be worried. I will manage."
"Address! Now!"
Beanie sent her a cute emoji and then put away his phone, not wanting to continue the conversation with her. She was very angered by this, and pulled a long face.
Mabie saw that Vera hadn't gotten into a taxi after being out for a while, so she had to come over and
have a look.
"What's wrong?"
"Beanie doesn't want to give me the address," Vera said helplessly.
"Why? Isn't this boy worried about himself?"
"What's there for him to worry about? Mom, we should worry about Sheridan instead. Beanie will definitely mess with him."
"What are you talking about? Beanie is so adorable. Besides, he is just a child. How would he mess with him?"
Vera was speechless.
She looked at her mother helplessly. It seemed that she had been completely persuaded by Beanie. The boy must have been acting all obedient and lovable with them, and that was why David and Mabie didn't know what a little devil he was.
Vera didn't want to debate about this anymore. She then said, "I'll send a message to Sheridan."
The two of them had added each other on Messenger, but they hadn't exchanged phone numbers yet.
She'd initially called Beanie because they were closer, which should have made things easier. Who knew he would act all stubborn and not
budge.
Hence, now, she had no choice but to contact Sheridan.
She then sent a message to him.
After waiting for a long time, he finally gave a brief reply.
"Don't worry, I will take good care of him."
This did not satisfy her.
He didn't want to tell her where they were either? It seemed that Beanie had brainwashed him. How could he do that...
Forget it. It's not like she could really hate Beanie. She had to find another way. She signaled for a taxi and got in. She then said to the driver, "Sir, do you know if there's any place around here that's really expensive?"
"An expensive place?" The driver's expression changed, and he looked like he was thinking hard.
She saw this and quickly added, "For dining!"
The driver immediately understood and said, "Well, I have been out and about, so I know a few places, but which one are you referring to?"
Which one? Vera wasn't sure where Beanie would take Sheridan to, but he must've been planning something against him, since he didn't want her there.
