When I Met You
Chapter 40 Uncle, Watch me Dance to the Little Swan Song
Ruby was striding forward with her short legs while practising to smile, but all of a sudden, she suddenly felt herself stepping on nothing.
She anxiously turned around and saw an extremely handsome face.
Ruby froze for a second. She blinked her huge eyes and smiled at Edward.
Scott also froze on the side as his eyes were glued to this scene. He couldn’t believe that Edward was holding a child for more than one minute, and he didn’t look like he was putting her down any minute.

“My name is Ruby White.”
Ruby answered and she didn’t look like she wanted to get off Edward just yet.
“Ruby White? Your family name is White…”
Scott ran his hand over his chin while examining Edward, “Is this child… your illegitimate child with your wife? Don’t you think that she resembles Mrs. Ford?”

“Where is your mother?”
This child was very good-looking, and although she was at an age when she could use the washroom by herself, her mother was still very irresponsible. If such a tender child appeared at the male’s washroom, no one could imagine the repercussions.
