Chapter 745 Whose Daughter Is She
Father? Men who come to this place are most likely scoundrels.
Josie sighed quietly. The child looks too young to be roaming alone. How can her parents
allow this?
She was worried that something might happen to the child. Thus, she smiled and offered,
“Where is your father? I’ll bring you to him.”
The girl considered seriously before standing on tiptoes and pressing the button for the
first level of the basement. “My father is here. Thank you for accompanying me, miss!”
“What a sweet girl.”
The elevator was narrow and felt unsafe. Josie noticed the girl seemed afraid and
instinctively tugged her shirt as they rode the elevator. She was exceedingly quiet for a
young child.
Josie’s heart softened. She recalled the baby she miscarried. Then, she stooped to the
girl’s level. “Where’s your mother? Did you come here alone?”
The girl clenched her fingers and nodded. She was very well–spoken for her age.

so he could rest.“.
Josie frowned with worry for the girl. “You must be careful. Your father would be sad if bad
guys
kidnapped you.”
The girl gave a puzzling reply. “I have a phone. Furthermore, someone would save me if I
were in danger.”
Josie frowned in confusion.
She caressed the girl’s rosy cheeks and advised, “Don’t do something like this again.”
The girl nodded. Loneliness written all over her face.
The elevator soon arrived at the first level of the basement. Josie held her out hand and
glanced at the surroundings. It was strangely silent. “Do you know where your father is?”
The girl held Josie’s hand and led her in a direction.
The place was silent and bright. There were antiques on display wherever they walked,
reminding Josie of museums. Each item was worth enough money for an ordinary family to
live off for their whole lives.
Josie’s heartbeat quickened.
The girl paused and pushed open the door with some difficulty. A tall and burly man stood
before the large floor–to–ceiling window, making an international call on his handphone.
The girl looked at him and shouted, “Daddy!”
Josie saw that the man was middle–aged and wore a mask that obscured his face.
Then, she heard the man speaking through a voice–altering device. “You are to sell them
when the market rate stops rising.”
The girl beside her shouted, “Daddy!”
She was excited and happy.
However, Josie suddenly noticed Mr. Vipera standing beside Wayne.
She immediately found a spot to hide before they saw her.
Why is Mr. Vipera here? Who is that masked man? He seems to be the girl’s father. Is he
also Wayne?
Her heart thumped nervously as she guessed.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmMr. Vipera suddenly looked at the doorway and saw the girl standing there. He loosened
his grip on the folder in his hand, causing it to fall with a loud ‘smack.
“Ms. Dalton?”
The masked man gradually turned around. It was hard to see his expression under the
mask.
Wayne picked up the scattered documents and bowed to the masked man. “I’ll investigate
what happened at the residence.”
The masked man did not say anything but waved to dismiss Mr. Vipera. His gaze
darkened.
Still, the girl ran to his side. “I missed you, Daddy!”
The man did not move.
The girl sat beside him and tugged his hand, chattering about things she felt interesting.
However, the masked man did not respond and ignored the girl.
The girl seemed used to it. She was sad but did not show it.
Soon, a group of well–trained bodyguards ran into the room.
The masked man walked before the bodyguards and ordered, “Who’s responsible for
guarding my daughter today? Step out by yourself.”
