Hold On Mr.! Your Sweetheart is a Real Queen

Chapter 445: Little Tadpole Looking for Dad 1

In the middle of the night, Daisy Ginger shivered as she squatted at the door, puffing on a cigarette while listening to James Shelton’s raspy voice over the phone asking her, "Do you know today is Erin’s birthday?"

"..." She was too busy and forgot.

"You promised him last month you would come back," James Shelton’s voice was heavy and sounded a bit hoarse, "We bought a birthday cake... I’m not blaming you, I just think... no matter how busy you are, you shouldn’t forget his birthday."

Daisy Ginger didn’t know what to say.

James Shelton sighed softly, "I’ve already reported it to the police, don’t worry, kids can’t run far, I’ll contact you when there’s news."

Daisy Ginger responded "Mm," hung up the phone, and tears started to fall, burying her face into her arms, her shoulders trembling.

Elena Raven stood beside her, a bit at a loss.

It was the first time she had seen the usually strong Daisy Ginger cry, unable to even utter words of comfort.

Daisy Ginger sat alone on the steps and cried for a while, then calmed down before looking up with red eyes and a pale face towards Elena Raven, saying, "You go ahead and sleep, you have to get up early to act tomorrow morning."

Elena Raven looked at Daisy Ginger’s red eyes, feeling a bit unwilling, "Ginger, I’ll stay with you."

Daisy Ginger took out a tissue to wipe her tears, smiled, then shook her head, "I’m fine... I’ll leave when it’s light, only a few hours to go, I’ll be alone for a while."

She looked somewhat tired, as Elena Raven watched her, feeling very uncomfortable, Daisy Ginger touched her hand, speaking softly, "I might not be back for a few days, are you okay staying in the crew with the assistant?"

Elena Raven was young and had a short career, without Daisy Ginger’s presence, she might be bullied, which was why she hadn’t left her side.

This was her first play, and she hoped to do her best, as Elena Raven’s family wasn’t wealthy, with a high school brother and a sick father at home. Daisy Ginger personally selected her, ordinary actresses wanting to rise up usually rely on wealthy patrons or their acting skills.

She wanted to be responsible for her.

Yet she didn’t expect to forget Erin’s birthday.

Elena Raven nodded, "Ginger, go back, I’m fine here."

Daisy Ginger responded "Mm," and left as soon as dawn broke, driving away.

James Shelton hadn’t contacted her, she didn’t know if he hadn’t found Erin or if there was a signal problem, she was so anxious that her heart hurt, even her stomach started cramping.

Tsing City.

Edward Stephens came out of the restaurant, surrounded by the crowd.

As the crowd gradually dispersed, he got into the car alone, driving through the city center’s most bustling square.

At one in the morning, even Times Square was deserted, but tonight, for some reason, a little corner was unusually lively, with a dense crowd of women chirping, not sure what they were saying.

Edward Stephens bit into his cigarette, originally not very interested, but accidentally glanced and saw a small familiar figure with a drawing board sitting on a bench, he frowned slightly and instinctively stepped on the brakes.

Where did Daisy Ginger go, leaving her son alone in the square?

He furrowed his brows, slowly parked the car at the roadside, opened the door, and walked towards the corner crowded with women.

"Hey there, are you lost?"

"Big sis bought milk tea for you, do you want a drink?"

"Do you remember mom and dad’s phone number? Would you like auntie to help you contact them?"
