CHAPTER 505: CHAPTER 505: POE VAUGHN MADE THE CHILD CRY

Vincent Donovan was taken aback when he heard Poe Vaughn’s words.

Because generally, people wouldn’t care about such a form of address, especially when it came from a little child. He thought Poe Vaughn wouldn’t care either.

The reason he wanted the kid to change the address was because, as an uncle, hearing such an address felt wrong, so naturally, he wanted to teach the child to correct it.

He had the right to do so.

However, he didn’t expect that someone as heartless and indifferent as Poe Vaughn, who was always indifferent to everything, would care about such a small address one day. It truly surprised him.

Vincent Donovan was momentarily stunned, looking at Poe Vaughn, unable to speak.

But the little boy just blinked his big eyes. He looked at Poe Vaughn, whose deep eyes held an ocean of endless depth at that moment, dark and intimidating.

However, the little boy wasn’t afraid because Uncle Vaughn wouldn’t hit him, so what was there to fear?

The little boy was really smart.

Now, looking at the person in front of him, although the words were indifferent, they didn’t seem fake. As long as he changed how he addressed him, Poe Vaughn would give him the answer.

Grown-ups don’t lie to kids. If they do, they’re like the big bad wolf, and no one will believe them anymore.

So, after a brief consideration, the little boy asked, "Uncle Vaughn, why do we call her Auntie?"

The little boy didn’t immediately change how he addressed, but instead voiced his confusion.

And before Poe Vaughn could answer, the little boy continued, "Sister is very pretty, very beautiful, like an angel. I think we should call her Sister, Auntie doesn’t sound nice."

Poe Vaughn looked at this extremely smart and clear-minded child, saying, "What do you call me?"

The little boy was stunned and then said in surprise, "Uncle Vaughn."

Poe Vaughn said, "I married her, she is my wife. You call me Uncle, but call her Sister, do you think that’s appropriate?"

Poe Vaughn treated the little boy with none of the tenderness one might show a child. He treated the little boy just like anyone else, with not a hint of gentleness.

However, as someone familiar with him, Vincent Donovan felt that for Poe Vaughn to say so much to a child, even explaining, already indicated a change in his attitude.

That was already a big improvement.

If it were Quentin Quinn, Poe Vaughn wouldn’t have said so much. Just a glance would have made Quentin Quinn run away without daring to ask.

Poe Vaughn used the word "married," not "marry," clearly indicating his relationship with Ava Sterling, without caring for the little boy’s feelings.

The little boy was stunned.

At the moment Poe Vaughn spoke those words, he froze.

He stared blankly at Poe Vaughn, and then... his eyes gradually turned red.

Vincent Donovan was quite surprised that Poe Vaughn would explain his relationship with Ava Sterling to this little child rather than to him or Ethan Ainsworth.

Vincent found it surprising and strange, feeling something was off.

But before he could think too much, he saw tears quickly gathering in the little boy’s eyes as if he was deeply hurt.

Vincent Donovan’s heart tightened instantly, and he immediately pulled the little boy into his arms, gently asking, "What’s wrong? What happened?"

Hearing his words, the little boy buried his face into Vincent’s embrace, grabbing his shirt, and started crying loudly.

Poe Vaughn had made the child cry, but he felt no guilt, telling the hurriedly comforting Vincent Donovan, "Let’s meet again when we have time tomorrow."

Vincent Donovan was momentarily flustered by the little boy’s crying because he rarely cried. Worried that something might be wrong, he wanted to ask. But before he could speak, he was interrupted by Poe Vaughn, who held the little boy and nodded at him, his expression serious, "We’ll talk when we have time tomorrow."

"Hmm."

With that, Poe Vaughn didn’t stay any longer and left following Ava Sterling’s footsteps.

And after speaking, Vincent Donovan quickly looked at the distressed little boy in his arms, urgently asking, "What’s wrong, are you feeling unwell? Tell Uncle, and I will take you to see a doctor."

The boy’s small chubby hands tightly clutched Vincent Donovan’s shirt, shaking his head in his arms.

He wasn’t unwell, he was sad, sad that he couldn’t marry Sister.

Sister was married to Uncle Vaughn, and it was really sad.

Thinking about it, the little boy cried even more sorrowfully.

At this, Vincent Donovan became even more flustered, fumbling all over.

Ava Sterling returned to the hotel and quickly reached outside the suite, but was momentarily stunned.

She didn’t have a room card, how was she going to get in?

For a moment, Ava Sterling stood there, petrified in the wind.

Without a room card, she could only wait here for Poe Vaughn, not knowing when he would return after meeting friends.

Maybe he had other matters and would return even later.

Was she supposed to wait here for him to come back?

Ava Sterling realized she indeed had to wait. Considering what had happened tonight, if she disappeared, who knows what he might do.

So, she resignedly decided to wait.

Thinking about it, Ava Sterling took out her phone, leaned against the railing, and began watching TV on her phone, learning to act.

If you’re willing to, there’s always time to learn.

It just depends on whether you’re willing and want to learn.

She turned on the TV, and soon Ava Sterling was engrossed in watching.

But she hadn’t watched for long when a strange voice came, "Hi~"

It was completely American English, perfectly fluent. Ava Sterling, disturbed, frowned and looked up to see a young Western man standing in front of her, gazing at her with an amazed expression.

Seeing the man’s gaze, displeasure rose in Ava Sterling’s eyes, and she directly said, "I’m busy right now. Don’t disturb me."

She completely ignored him.

After speaking, she lowered her head, continuing to watch TV, continuing to learn.

However, this man clearly didn’t want to leave just yet. Seeing Ava Sterling’s expression, although displeased and annoyed, made him like her even more.

An instant attraction.

So, the man continued, "Miss, you’re really beautiful. Can we be friends?"

Ava Sterling’s face and her model aura were very attractive to men, both domestically and abroad, often making people fascinated by her. Even when she lost her temper, in a curious way, it still looked good in the eyes of men.

At this point, Ava Sterling was once again disturbed by the man, making it impossible for her to concentrate on her studies, and she got angry. Immediately taking down her phone, she pointed at the man and sternly said, "Get lost!"

Her eyes stared angrily, with fury rising in them. Her beautiful face seemed to grow thorns, so full of them that they could prick someone dead.

The man was startled by Ava Sterling’s sudden anger, even stepping back in fright, instinctively raising his hands in a gesture of surrender, eyes full of astonishment.

It was clearly unexpected that such a beautiful woman like Ava Sterling would have such a hot temper.

Completely unexpected.

However, logically, the man should have left by now.

But strangely, the man didn’t leave, instead raising his hands to explain, "Miss, I didn’t mean anything. I just wanted to be friends with you. We... aah!"
