Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Megan suddenly pushed Jack away and ran out!
Jack: ‘l???” He hurriedly chased after her, but Megan was no longer in the corridor. He hurriedly pressed the elevator button and chased after her.
After Jack left, the lights on the dark stairs lit up. A figure stood there faintly. It was Megan. She pressed her chest in pain. “I’m sorry, Brother Jack. We can’t be together anymore. Fate arranged for us to meet, but we couldn’t reach the end.
Boohoo…”
The heartbroken Megan went to Tom’s house. Tom was surprised and happy. “Little Mango, why are you here?”
Megan looked delicately at Tom. When she realized that he was even more unworthy, she immediately burst into tears again. However, it was too late. She decided to make do with Tom for the night and leave tomorrow. She and Tom were destined to have no outcome…
In Amelia’s room.
Old Madam Walton took a towel wrapped in ice and placed it on Amelia’s forehead. Alex reached out. “Let me do it?” It was already so late, but the old lady was still taking care of the child. How could that do?
Old Madam Walton glared at Alex. “Don’t speak!”
Alex touched his nose and retreated.
Amelia obediently raised her head and let Old Madam Walton make ice for her. She even whispered, “Grandma, don’t worry. Mia is fine…
Old Madam Walton: “Shut up too.”
Amelia and Alex: “..” They could not afford to offend her.
Alex coughed and changed the topic. “Daughter, let Daddy tell you a story. What do you want to hear?” He reached out and took a few picture books from the table.
Amelia immediately raised her hand. “Daddy, Mia wants to hear Mary Sue’s story! I want that kind of story where an auntie grabs the hands of two men and tells them that the three of us will live happily in the future!” Alex:
Old Madam Walton: ‘I ???” A story of a woman living with two men?!
Old Madam Walton was furious. “Alex! What nonsense did you show Mia?!”
Alex was dumbfounded. How could he show such indecent things to a child?!
Amelia looked to the side in confusion. She clasped her hands and asked softly,
“Master, is there anything wrong with this story?”
Old Madam Walton paused. Together with Alex, she looked sharply at… Air!
Elmer Stevens: “…” He felt wronged too. The Mary Sue story he was talking about was a love triangle story, not some indecen film. But thinking about it, a love triangle didn’t seem too good, right?
The corners of Elmer Stevens’s mouth twitched. He said to Amelia, “Be good,
Mia. I heard that we don’t read that kind of story.”
Amelia pursed her lips and understood. Indeed, her unreliable master had taught her indecent things again… She turned to Old Madam Walton and said, “Grandma, I won’t read Mary Sue’s story anymore. I want to hear 5,000 kilometers under the sea…”
Alex felt relieved and found the picture book that Amelia had mentioned.
“Alright, Daddy will read you 5,000 kilometers under the sea.”
Old Madam Walton saw Amelia lying on the bed obediently. Alex opened the picture book. At this moment, the unrestrained man was obediently telling a story to his child. The scene was quite harmonious… Old Madam Walton quietly left and closed the door. At this moment, she felt that her legs were a little numb. She felt strange. It seemed that ever since Amelia massaged her legs every day, her legs had become stronger and stronger. She did not know if it was her imagination…
Old Madam Walton didn’t know what was going on either. She suddenly wanted to stand up, but her legs still didn’t have the strength… She couldn’t help but shake her head. It seemed that she was thinking too much.
In the room, Alex leaned against the head of the bed and hugged Amelia. He casually made up a story about 5,000 kilometers under the sea. His voice was low, very pleasant to the ears, and very hypnotic… Amelia quickly yawned and slowly fell asleep.
Alex slowly stopped talking and lowered his eyes to look at Amelia, who had become even more obedient after falling asleep. She was like a little angel. He couldn’t help but bend down and kiss her forehead. He whispered, “Goodnight, my little angel.” He was very grateful for her appearance in his life. The only regret was that he couldn’t accompany her when she was born and watch her grow up. He didn’t appear by her side when she needed him the most, but he would always be there in the future.
Alex got out of bed quietly and covered Amelia with a blanket. Then, he stretched and habitually walked towards the balcony. The sleeping parrot,
Seven, sensed it and opened its eyes.. It moved to the side and cawed,
“Grandpa, do you want to sleep together?”
