Joline and the waiter were still confused, but Caroline’s eyes had already slid down and caught a little girl who was as tall as everyone’s knees. She was holding her big, watery eyes and looking up at Caroline.

When their eyes met, the little girl immediately looked away in embarrassment, but her face secretly blushed. She was so cute that people wanted to pinch her little face.

Caroline knelt down and carried her. “Why are you here?”

“Ya!” Julie’s body was in the air, and her vision suddenly changed. She could not react in time and subconsciously hugged Caroline’s neck.

The little girl looked up and saw Caroline with dazed eyes. She immediately realized what a stupid thing she had just done. She was embarrassed and angry. She wanted to let go of Caroline’s embrace, but she couldn’t bear to. In the end, she buried her head in Caroline’s shoulder.

“Hahaha!” Mrs. Hall’s forthright smile came from the front. “As expected of this little devil. She only shows this side in front of you.”

Mrs. Hall’s attitude today had changed from the reserved and distant attitude from the other day to a passionate one. Mr. Hall, who was standing beside her, was also surprised to see his daughter.

He and his wife had been married for 23 years and had two sons and one daughter. The eldest son and the second son were almost adults. His wife had accidentally conceived Julie when she was 40 years old.

As the youngest daughter of the family, Julie was doted on by everyone. Therefore, it was inevitable that her temperament was a little spoiled. She was usually mischievous and active, and her actions were willful and overbearing. Her nickname was ‘little devil star’, which was a perfect portrayal of her.

Although the couple knew that it was not good for their child to be raised like this, every time they wanted to be strict, they could not be serious when they saw Julie’s pitiful expression. Julie was a smart child. She knew that her parents and brother would not do anything to her, so she became more and more insatiable.

As Julie’s father, Mr. Hall had never seen such an expression on her face. He looked at Caroline with a complicated expression.

With just one meeting, she was able to completely subdue Julie. Even he had to admit that the future lady of the Anderson family was indeed capable.

Mr. Hall was a little impressed, but at the same time, a little jealous. She was his daughter, but she didn’t admire her powerful father. Instead, she admired an outsider. How could he not feel a little lost and uncomfortable?

Mr. Hall’s heart was filled with a thousand worries, but he still maintained a generous and dignified expression on his face.

When Julie saw her father and mother, she knew that if she continued to stay in Caroline’s arms, she would be nagged at by them again. So, she reluctantly let go of her and jumped out of her arms.

Mrs. Hall patted her little head and asked someone to take her out of the banquet hall to play with her friends. After exchanging a few polite words with Joline, she turned to Caroline.

“After we came back that day, we should have gone to thank you officially, but because Giles said that the matter that day was still under investigation and needed to be kept a secret, it was not appropriate for us to go to your door.” Giles was Mr. Hall’s name.

Mr. Hall nodded. “Thank you very much for standing up that day without fear of danger.”

Even though he had his doubts, he still expressed his gratitude in front of

Caroline since he had no evidence.

“I don’t think anyone would be able to watch a little girl get hurt and remain unmoved,” Caroline said.

Mr. Hall looked at her quietly for two seconds, then a smile appeared on his face. “You really don’t look like an 18-year-old girl.” And she was even less like that young lady from the Lambert family in the investigation.

Just from the first encounter, Mr. Hall realized that although Caroline had beautiful features in videos and surveillance, she was like a puppet. There was no trace of girlish brilliance and moving beauty on her. The real person in front of him was full of vitality, her eyes were clear, and she had a tenacious temperament that refused to admit defeat.

Compared to her exquisite appearance and figure, Caroline’s energy was what attracted his attention.

After seeing her in person, Mr. Hall finally understood why his wife and daughter praised her so much. If this kidnapping was proven to have nothing to do with Caroline or the Anderson family, then she was undoubtedly a person worth befriending.

Mr. Hall looked at the time and reminded his wife, “It’s time to go to the banquet hall to prepare..”
