Chapter 869: Chapter 868: Persistent Shadow

"What?" Bella was taken aback, "You’re taking Talia to the company?"

"Yeah." Damian nodded, "Talia said two days ago that she wanted to go to the company for fun."

Bella frowned, "Isn’t it a bit inconvenient to take Talia to the company while you’re working?"

She was more worried that if Damian took Talia for a stroll around Kingston Group, everyone would know he has a daughter.

And given how much Damian adores Talia, he certainly wouldn’t volunteer any explanations about the goddaughter situation, so the whole Kingston company would think Talia is his biological daughter.

Damian served her some pickled vegetables, saying casually, "It’s not inconvenient. I’ll deal with company matters and let her play in the office. Or I’ll have a secretary specially accompany her to play around the company, it’s no big deal."

"No, you haven’t even married yet and you’re taking a child to work. Aren’t you afraid of any rumors spreading in your company?" Bella was speechless.

"No one would dare." Damian said, "Finish your meal, we’ll send you to the studio first, then head to the company."

Seeing he was determined to take Talia to the company, Bella worried that saying too much might arouse his suspicion, so she dropped the topic.

"No need, Judy is coming over to pick me up shortly." Bella turned to say, "Talia, don’t be naughty when you get to the company, okay?"

"Mommy, don’t worry, I’ll be good." The little girl finished the egg yolk in her hand, put down her spoon, "I’m full."

Damian finished his bowl of porridge and also put down his chopsticks, wiped his mouth, and said, "Judy’s coming to pick you up, so Talia and I will go to the company first."

"Okay, will you take Aunt Rhodes’ car to go?" Bella nodded.

"Special Assistant Lawson is waiting outside." Damian stood up, walked around the table to Bella’s side, and before she could react, kissed her on the forehead, "We’re off."

"Hehe, Mommy, I want a kiss too." The little girl stood on the ground tiptoeing, and Bella leaned over helplessly to let her kiss her cheek.

Damian took a coat and put it on the little girl, then helped her with her small backpack, his attentiveness really made him look like a qualified nanny dad.

"Goodbye, Mommy."

"Don’t be naughty." Bella still couldn’t help but remind her.

The little girl stuck out her tongue, Damian said, "We’re going now, call me after you finish recording the show."

Bella waved her hand, watching Damian take the little girl out the door, momentarily feeling a real family of three vibe.

"What random thoughts are swirling in my mind."

Bella muttered, continuing to eat her breakfast.

Once she finished tidying up, Judy’s phone call came in right on cue.

Bella answered the phone while grabbing her keys to head out, "Hey, Piggy, are you already at the gates of the complex?"

"Yeah, are you ready?"

"Yup, I’m in the elevator now, wait for me at the entrance of the complex."

Bella reached the entrance of the complex, and Judy opened the car door for her. After they both got in the car, Judy said, "Bella, guess who I just saw at the entrance of your complex?"

"Who?" Bella buckled her seatbelt, intrigued by her mysterious tone.

"Aunt Rhodes." Judy knew a bit about Bella not wanting too much contact with Aunt Rhodes, so seeing her suddenly appear at the complex entrance made her take notice, "You think she’s here to corner you?"

Bella chuckled lightly, "She already cornered me at the complex entrance."
