Novel My baby’s daddy chapter 2496-Cole smiled. “It depends, but that’s part of my job.”

“Be careful, then. Don’t make me worry about you. Shirley was very worried about his safety. “All right.

I’ll be careful.” He nodded. Even without her

reminding him, he didn’t want to make her worry either.

“This is delicious.” She then scooped some food onto his plate. At the same time, in another upscale

restaurant, Zacharias sat at the table, staring at his

phone as he waited for a message. He had been waiting for over ten minutes,

and the girl hadn’t replied to him. So, she’s with her beloved man and doesn’t

even want to bother me anymore?

He couldn’t believe that Shirley hadn’t seen his messages. Since her phone was secure for her

profession, she wouldn’t receive junk texts, and she would see

every message. Frustrated, he sent another message. ‘Reply to my message!

He wrote it in a more commanding tone.

Shirley glanced at the message that lit up again, and with some impatience, she

picked up her phone and checked the message. It was another overbearing message from Zacharias.

What could he possibly want?

Yes, Mr. Flintstone? she finally replied. ‘From now on, even if you’re taking time

off, you’re not allowed to ignore my messages, the man quickly responded.

Seeing that, she scoffed and replied, ‘What is it, Mr. Flintstone?! ‘Be back at the residence before

2.00PM.’ He had shortened her time off.

This annoyed her, for it was already 12.30PM. If she had to be back at the

residence by 2.00PM, it meant she had exactly one less hour for her date with

Cole. Tll be back before 3.00PM, alright? Shirley. requested.

Across the table, Cole watched as Shirley’s expression showed signs of

annoyance when she replied to the messages. It was clear that she was having an unpleasant

exchange with someone.

“What’s wrong? Did someone upset you?” he asked curiously. Since Shirley had

no one else to vent to, she complained to him, “Yeah, there’s this really.

annoying person who’s been making things difficult for me.”

“An annoying person? Who is it?” He grew even more curious.

“It’s just a really annoying person. This person is bossy and unreasonable, and I

can’t be bothered to deal with them.” As she said that, she turned her phone off.

Cole tried to console her. “Enough of the sad topics. Let’s just enjoy our meal.

Just stay away from people who upset you.” But who could have upset her this much? Is it a man or a

woman?

Just then, Shirley propped up her chin and revealed a cute smile. “Cole, do you

have a girlfriend?”

He almost choked on his drink, startled by her direct question. After he cleared his throat, he replied,

“I’ve been too busy with work to have a girlfriend.”

At his answer, she was secretly pleased. “Do you plan to have one?”

“Of course,” he replied, looking at her. “Then… have you considered me?” Her

adorable eyes darted around when she said that.

Shirley had grown up in a training camp and was raised like a boy. Her attitude toward love was

straightforward, and she disliked playing games or beating

around the bush. Since she was certain of her feelings for Cole, she wanted to

know if he felt the same way. If they both liked each other, shouldn’t they be in a

relationship?

‘Shirley, you’re an excellent girl and exceptional in every way- Cole praised.

“Do you not like me, Cole?” she asked, lowering her head. From that part of his

sentence, she thought that he didn’t like her and was about to reject her. Cole

was flustered and quickly said, “No, I really like you.

“Then what concerns do you have?” She blinked, sensing that he had

something on his mind. Indeed, how could Cole have no concerns? Her

background was not simple, and her family held significant power. He was worried that he might not be

worthy of her.

Though he had never felt inferior before, in the face of Shirley’s family

background, Cole couldn’t help but feel insignificant. Even if she liked him, he

was worried that he would not be able to meet her family’s expectations for a son-in-law.

“Shirley, I came to Averna this time because of you.” In the end, he chose to bravely voice his feelings.
