Mr Carlos Huo, She's Your Wife novel Chapter 1008

Joshua grinned, "Dude, you know me too well. But get this: Mr. Huo is very strict when it comes to Terilynn. I barely see her. But this is my chance. Mr. Huo's off on a business trip, so I can spend some quality time with my girlfriend. Sure, Terilynn and I can take care of Gwyn. But what if I can't control myself around her and try something? It's not good if Gwyn gets exposed to that, right?"

Sheffield didn't want to waste any more time on Joshua. "Cut the crap. I'll keep Gwyn, then. Go on your date. She can sleep at my place tonight. I can pretend she's my daughter from now on."

Gwyn was really thirsty. She took a big gulp of the juice before stopping to take a breath.

"We'll come and get her when you get tired. All right, I'll let you get back to taking care of Gwyn, Uncle Sheffield!" Joshua joked.

Sheffield snorted and hung up the phone.

After drinking some juice, Gwyn held the cup and looked up at Sheffield.

Sheffield put his phone in his pocket. He took the juice from Gwyn with one hand and held her in his other arm. "Let's go, Gwyn. Ignore them. I'll take you to buy some toys. How about a pair of beautiful princess shoes too?"

Two hours later, Terilynn was getting worried. She hadn't heard one word from Sheffield. "Let's go find them. Gwyn is so cute, what if Sheffield wants to keep her?" she told Joshua. Actually, she was simply afraid Sheffield would find out Gwyn was his biological daughter.

This secret was huge. He had to be told properly, not find out by accident.

"No way. Tell you what: if he takes Gwyn away from you, as his best friend, I'm willing to give myself to you in trade," Joshua declared.

Terilynn rolled her eyes at him with a smile and pushed him. "Hurry up. Looking after a toddler is no mean feat. Sheffield's been at it a long time. He must be tired. Let's go find them."

"Okay!"

The two of them found Sheffield and Gwyn at the resting area of the children's clothing floor. Gwyn slept soundly in Sheffield's arms, covered by Sheffield's suit jacket. Tons of shopping bags surrounded Sheffield's feet.

"Oh my God! You bought all this? What did you get?" Joshua's eyes widened when he saw all those bags. There were at least ten shopping bags in all different colors.

Sheffield didn't bother to look at him. He was texting someone on his phone. Since it was about business, his eyes looked more serious than usual. "Keep your voice down. Gwyn just fell asleep," he whispered. "I got a few toys, food, and clothes."

Raising his eyebrows, Joshua whispered back, "Didn't know that you liked kids so much."

"I do," Sheffield replied perfunctorily as he edited his message.

In fact, he just liked Gwyn. He liked this little girl even a lot more than his own little brother, Nastas.

If he were with Nastas today, he would have never gone shopping with him.

"Let me hold Gwyn. You've had her for a long time. You must be beat," Terilynn offered. But Sheffield refused to hand Gwyn over. "I'm not tired. You two sit down and have a rest. I just got her to sleep. Let's not wake her up. We can wait a bit and leave later."

Terilynn was shocked to hear what he said. "O-okay!"

Sheffield didn't know Gwyn was his daughter yet, but he was already so good to her. Terilynn couldn't begin to imagine how he would treat her once he found out the truth. He already treated her like a princess, so how much further would he go? So far, Sheffield and Carlos at least had one thing in common—spoiling their daughters without a care in the world.

Half an hour later, Gwyn slowly opened her eyes. The first thing she saw was Sheffield's face. He was looking at his phone thoughtfully. Gwyn blinked her eyes and gave him the cutest smile.

Sheffield happened to glimpse that lovely smile as he turned to check on her. He was delighted and surprised. "Gwyn, you're awake. You look happy. Good dreams?"

Terilynn and Joshua were whispering to each other sitting opposite Sheffield. When they heard Gwyn waking up, they immediately walked over. "Yep, she's awake. Come here, Gwyn," Terilynn said.

"Let me hold her first. Both you and Sheffield have had a turn. I haven't gotten a chance yet." Joshua thought it would be a tragedy if he didn't get a selfie with a child as lovely as Gwyn.
