I looked at the source of the voice and saw Steve standing in the afterglow of the setting sun. His temperament was so outstanding that even the beautiful setting sun, which was about to set, could only serve as a backdrop for Steve.

Steve just stood there quietly and extended his hand to me, like a noble God in the sky.

I just stared at Steve without moving my hand. I felt a little sour in my eyes. Some sparkling liquid fell from my eyes.

I didn’t cry when I was bullied by Kris. I didn’t cry when my bed was filled with water. I didn’t cry even when I saw Kris’ father. I didn’t cry when I was threatened by him. But now, for some reason… I cried.

I didn’t want to cry. This was nothing to a mature soul like me. I thought I could endure it. But when I saw Steve, I couldn’t hold back my tears.

When Steve saw that I was crying, he walked over and squatted down in front of me. He raised his wide and warm palms to wipe my tears. He realized that his palms were too big, so he could only carefully wipe away my tears with his two fingers.

“I thought you weren’t coming to pick me up after school.” After saying that, I hugged Steve’s neck tightly. Steve took the opportunity to hug me. In his warm embrace, I could always feel a sense of security.

“I’m sorry, I’m sorry. It’s all my fault. Today’s meeting was delayed, so I was late. I let you suffer.” The dignified C City business boss, the legendary richest man in the city… At this moment, Steve hurriedly apologized like a child who had done something wrong.

I looked at Steve’s helpless expression and suddenly laughed. Who would have thought that the cold-hearted CEO who had worked in the business circle for so many years would have such a cute side to him?

Kris’ father, who was originally arrogant and domineering, was so shocked that he couldn’t say a word. He didn’t know that Steve had a niece. Wasn’t he still unmarried? Moreover, Steve hated children the most. Now, he was actually apologizing to this little girl.

Kris’ father had just gone on a business trip elsewhere a few days ago. He had missed hearing the rumors about Steve in C City. Because he was certain that the Steve I was talking about could not be this Steve, he dared to be so arrogant and unbridled.

He did not expect that he would end up offending the richest man in C City. After all, Steve’s financial businesses were all over C City. As long as Steve wanted to, he could fire Kris’ father, even letting Kris’ father’s company go bankrupt was nothing to Steve, it was just a small matter.

Kris was still clamoring for her father to teach these two people a lesson. The child obviously didn’t understand Steve’s absolute superiority in C City. She only felt that the two of them were more than enough to teach them a lesson.

Kris’ father quickly covered his daughter’s mouth, not daring to let her continue. Kris’ father’s legs couldn’t help but tremble in fear.

He quickly took a step forward and stood respectfully in front of Steve. He said obsequiously, “I’m really sorry, President Steve. Today’s matter is a misunderstanding. The children are just playing around. I’m here to apologize to you and the young lady. I’m really sorry. Please don’t take this small matter to heart.”

Kris was extremely surprised to see her father so humble. No matter how bossy she was, she didn’t dare to say anything more now that her backer was being so respectful.

Steve quietly looked at Kris’ father’s meticulously arranged ostentation, his eyes full of coldness. He thought that if he decided to avenge Sheila, it would only make things more difficult for her.

Kris’ father saw Steve looking behind him, and he was so nervous that the sweat on his forehead was about to fall off. He hurriedly waved at the person in charge, and the line of cars parked at the school gate instantly drove away. The people who stood in a line to welcome Kris also dispersed.

“In the future, I don’t want to see you or your daughter in this school again,” Steve said to Kris’ father who was standing beside him with his head lowered, without any warmth..
