Chapter 397
Zola racked her brains but could not remember when she had told Jasmine that Leopold was her father.
It didn’t matter anymore.
The important thing was to leave with Jasmine now.
She didn’t want to cause unnecessary trouble.
At this moment, the waiter happened to come over to serve the dishes.
Zola made a prompt decision. “Do you have takeaway service here?”
“Yes?” The waiter was stunned for a moment. Then, he said, “Miss, we provide delivery here. However, there will be an additional delivery service fee…
“Okay Zola quickly took the pen and paper from the waiter. “Send it over to this address.”
“Okay. The waiter returned the food.
“Mommy, are we leaving?” Jasmine asked her in surprise.
“Yes, let’s go. Zola said hurriedly.
“Why? I don’t want to. I still want to celebrate my birthday. You’re bad. Jasmine immediately refused.
She finally had the chance to celebrate her birthday.
She didn’t want to le
leave.
“Jasmine, be good, We can celebrate your birthday together when we get home. I will buy you a big cake, too, okay?” Zola coaxed her.
“No, I still want to celebrate it with Daddy.” As she spoke, Jasmine climbed down from the chair.
She was about to look for Leopold.
At that moment, Zola was so frightened that her face turned pale.
She quickly picked up Jasmine.
Jasmine resisted with her little hands and feet. Her face was full of grievances, and her eyes turned red. She looked so pitiful. “Mommy, you’re bad…”
“Be good. I will bring you home, and we’ll celebrate your birthday, okay? What toys do you want? I’ll buy them for you,” Zola said gently.
“I want Daddy.” Jasmine looked like she wouldn’t give up.
“He’s not your daddy” Zola was very serious.
“Boohoo Jasmine burst into tears.
Zola was speechless.
With Jasmine’s ability to cry at will, it would be a pity if she did not enter the entertainment industry in the future.
She saw that many customers were looking over

Chapter 397
After all, it was a high-end restaurant. It was very abrupt to make a loud noise.
However, Zola did not indulge Jasmine.
There was no tolerance when it came to principles.
She said directly to Cheryl, “Pack up Jasmine’s things and we’ll leave.”
Cheryl nodded and quickly picked up the baby bag beside her and packed it.
Zola carried the crying Jasmine and left the restaurant.
In the taxi, Jasmine was still crying.
She did not let Zola hug her anymore. Her little body lay in Cheryl’s arms.
Zola also felt a little apologetic.
It was supposed to be a good birthday….
She sighed.
Before the car arrived home, Zola went to buy a cake. When they returned home, the delivery meal arrived.
Jasmine was still sulking..
She sat on the sofa and did not speak to Zola.
Cheryl had been comforting and mediating from the side.
In the end, Jasmine could not resist her hunger and compromised.
There were still tears in her eyes when she ate.
She asked indignantly, “Mommy, why did you stop me from seeing Daddy?”
“I told you he’s not your daddy… Zola was helpless.
“Liar,” Jasmine complained.
Zola did not want to quarrel with a three-year-old child anymore. She tried her best to divert the topic to distract her.
After dinner, they had a birthday cake.
When making a wish, Jasmine thought about it again and said, “thope that Daddy will celebrate my birthday with me next
time.”
Zola was speechless. ‘Since when do you have a daddy?’
Jasmine blew out the candles, and they ate the cake.
To please Jasmine, Zola took a bubble bath with her.
Before she returned to Beliey, Zola was not so busy. She often took a bath with Jasmine.
Jasmine was happy after playing with the bubbles for a while.
“Mommy,” she said excitedly, bubbles forming on her little face,
Zola gently wiped her face.

“Mommy, can we invite-Daddy to bathe with us next time? Jasone said innocently.
Zola was speechless and helpless.
It seemed Jasmine was unable to get over the topic of her father.
rin
Zola was no longer in the mood to take a bath.
She pulled Jasmine out of the bathtub and rinsed her clean before coaxing her to sleep.
Zola told her a fairy tale about a prince and a princess.
“Mommy, can you ask Daddy to tell me next time? I want to hear Daddy tell me a story,” Jasmine yawned and asked Zola.
Zola was speechless again. ‘How many times do I have to say it? She doesn’t have a daddy.
Fortunately, Jasmine was tired from playing and quickly fell asleep.
She was still mumbling in her sleep, “Daddy…”
Zola was so speechless.
After covering Jasmine with a blanket, she went to the living room to drink water.
She watched as Cheryl finished her work and tidied
in the room
Because there was a child at home, the house was always messy, Cheryl always cleaned up after they were asleep.
Previously, Zola had also suggested hiring a nanny and housekeeping, but Cheryl had refused.
Cheryl said that she could handle it alone.
Zola knew that Cheryl said that because she could not bear for her to spend money.
In the past three years, Zola did have some spare cash on hand, but she did not have any income. She also didn’t dare to invest rashly. She was afraid that if the investment failed, she would lose everything. It was not time for her to go out and work. She was worried she would be recognized and cause trouble. Moreover, Jasmine did need someone to take care of her
“Co to bed early,” Zola said calmly as she drank water.
“I’m going to sleep right now,” Cheryl quickly said.
She was always cautious with her.
Zola felt depressed, but she did not say anything else.
Cheryl cleaned everything up. After hesitating for a long time, she asked, “Did Jasmine see her father today?”
“Ahem, ahem” Zola choked on the water.
Cheryl quickly went over and patted her back gently.
It took Zola a while to calm down.
She felt Cheryl closeness
Cheryl qaukly let go and walked a few steps away
She knew that Zola had never wanted her to get too close to her
“Yes,” Zola replied. She did not want to hide it from her

“Then who is her daddy?” Cheryl was still a little curious. Could it be Joel? The big boy I had always had a good impression

When she first found out that they had broken up, she felt sorry for them for a long time.
She thought that Zola had found a home when she met him.
I’ve never thought of making her acknowledge him anyway. Let’s pretend this person doesn’t exist.” Zola didn’t want to say
more.
Cheryl did not ask further.
“Speaking of which.” Zola frowned. “When did I tell Jasmine who her daddy is?”
She really couldn’t think of anything.
If even Cheryl didn’t know, how did Jasmine, a three-year-old child, know so much?
Cheryl thought for a while in silence. Suddenly, she thought of something. “You seemed drunk one night before we went back to Beliey. You remember that?”
Zola suddenly shuddered.
It was the first two nights before she was scheduled to return to Beliey.
She had mixed feelings.
She had not drunk alcohol for a long time. That day. Cheryl happened to make her favorite dishes, so she asked the convenience store to send a box of beer to her house, Cheryl did not drink alcohol, so she drank some herself. In the end, she drank too much.
She drank seven or eight bottles alone.
She vaguely remembered that she was sitting on the sofa, Chery was washing the dishes, and Jasmine was playing beside her.
She vaguely remembered that she had seen an exclusive interview about Leopold…
‘Could it be that I was drunk at that time… Damm it. Drinking causes trouble!’ Zola thought to herself.
