"Everything of mine is yours. Go ahead!"
"Wow! You are so generous!"
"Here, baby, write a hundred million on it." Anna was holding Gemma's chubby hand and started writing "0" on the check.
While happily drawing the "0", Gemma asked," Mommy, is a hundred million enough? I want to write one billion, ten billion, millions of billions! I want to make all his money mine."
Liam assumed that Gemma's words were wrong, so he corrected, "In principle, all my money is yours."
That was his own daughter.
Whatever he had earned, striving his whole life, he would give it to his daughter.
But it was just...
"Are you sure you want to write so many '0'?" The corners of Liam's lips twitched.
Did they really want to empty his bank account?
However, they continued to draw "0" on the check without conscience.
At the time, Liam felt a sudden regret that he had given them an unlimited check for amusement.
"Uh, I think..." Liam's slender fingers lightly rubbed his nose, "Are you guys really sure about this?"
Anna and Gemma looked up and nodded vigorously at the same time.
"You're an adult! You have to keep your word!" Gemma pouted her tiny mouth.
"Exactly! How can you not keep your word? You told u s to write whatever we want!" Anna rolled her eyes at him.
"Go on!" Liam waved his hand. He let them enjoy the play.
"In the worst case, if I went broke, from now on, you two will support me. I'll work for you, and you can't fire me for the rest of my life."
Anna curled her lips in disdain, "I won't hire an employee like you."
"No! You don't listen to me at all! A good employee should always be obedient." Gemma echoed.
"You little thing! What do you know?" Liam cried helplessly.
"I know everything!" Gemma crossed her arms on her waist and drew more "0" on the check.
Crossing his arms around his chest, Liam claimed," Write whatever you want!"
He no longer cared that they might overdraw his entire fortune on this check.
Anna burst out laughing happily. Her mouth was curved up in a beautiful crescent shape.
"If so, I'll just help myself!" Anna didn't care if Liam could afford it or not, and she drew several "0" resolutely.
Liam looked at the huge check nonchalantly and said, "It seems that from now on, I really have to rely on you to support me! But before that, you'd better marry me first, so that you won't run away with the money. And you'll also have to announce to the public that I'm Gemma's real father."
Hearing the scheme in Liam's words, Anna angrily crumpled the letter up into a ball and threw it fiercely on Liam.
"No way!"
Her beautiful eyes instantly welled up with anger.
"So that's your intention! You despicable man! You are plotting on me all the time!"
Anna thought he really wanted to show his sincerity and give Gemma a gift, so she also played with him purposely. But she didn't expect that he was actually conspiring on her in the end.
She was really annoyed.
But seeing Gemma's sullen look, Anna hurriedly softened her voice.
"Gemma, what's wrong with you? Are you unhappy?" Anna bent down and stroked Gemma's soft chubby face.
Gemma pursed her lips, "Today is New Year's Eve. Mommy, why are you angry? Didn't you say a new year is a new start, and we should all be happy?"
Anna knew Gemma very well. The little girl started to be a bit protective of Liam, and she didn't hope Anna b e angry with Liam.
Maybe this was the nature of father and daughter!
