Fabian denied it very simply and decisively with a look of displeasure on his handsome face.The teacher was stunned for a moment, but she quickly reacted and continued to put on a sweet, friendly smile. “I'm so sorry, I thought you were Lillian's—”“I'm Lillian's guardian. If anything happens to Lillian at school, notify me immediately.”Fabian said and handed over his business card.The teacher took the business card in her hand and glanced at it carefully.Fabian turned back and stroked Lillian's little head. “Lily, go in with the teacher. I’ll come to pick you up after school.”Lillian lifted her baby face and blinked at Fabian.Fabian lifted the corner of his lips and smiled softly. After that, he reached out and put a piece of candy in Lillian's palm. Then, he looked at the teacher seriously.“Miss Charles, I’ll leave Lillian in your care, then.”The teacher quickly put away the business card and smiled before nodding at Fabian.“Mr. Johnson, don't worry. I’m already aw
Miss Charles was a little embarrassed, but she took the cake anyway and waved goodbye to Lillian.Lillian smiled and waved goodbye to the teacher.After getting in the car, Fabian's eyes glanced in the rearview mirror from time to time.“Lily, are you happy that you got to go to school today?”Lillian nodded.Fabian asked again, “Did any of your classmates bully you?”Lillian shook her head, and there was a pure smile on her little face.Fabian breathed a sigh of relief.For the next few days, Fabian picked up and dropped off Lillian on time every day.For the rest of the time, he was either in the company or he was taking Lillian to the hospital for regular check-ups. He would only go to these few locations. He rarely indulged in entertainment or attended gatherings.His best friend was making fun of him, saying that he did not have a girlfriend yet but seemed to be tied down already.That was the truth, but Fabian was happy with this.He had promised Madeline and himself
After listening to her friend's exclamation, Julie smiled happily. “That little girl is not Mr. Johnson’s daughter.”“Not his daughter?” The friend was surprised. “But it looks like this handsome guy is very concerned about this little girl.”“He’s her guardian, so of course, he’s concerned about the child in his care,” Julie explained, and her words sounded very reasonable. She looked at Fabian's back as he entered the burger shop, a smile appearing on the corners of her lips. “Mr. Johnson is so loving and patient with children. I’m pretty sure he’ll love his own children even more when he has them in the future.”It was the weekend, so Fabian spent the day out with Lillian.It was not until dusk that Lillian felt a little sleepy. Fabian carefully carried Lillian who had started to doze off and got into the car.After returning home, Fabian carried Lillian to the bedroom to sleep.Looking at her innocent sleeping face, Fabian's heart was extremely satisfied and at ease.He went
After school, Fabian picked up Lillian right away.Perhaps it was because of Lillian's physical condition that the school took more care of her.At night.Fabian held Lillian's half-finished DIY work and did the finishing touches seriously.After completing it, Fabian sat next to Lillian's bed for a while. He did not know when he fell asleep, but when he woke up the next day, he found that he had fallen asleep next to Lillian’s bed.When he saw the caretaker who took care of Lillian come into the room, Fabian got up with a little embarrassment.The caretaker did not find it strange to see this scene. Everyone in this room knew that Fabian, the elder brother, had always been fond of his little sister, Lillian.In truth, Fabian was just a little worried because he did not know whether he had affected Lillian with the way he slept.However, it seemed that the little girl slept well.Fabian still sent Lillian to kindergarten as usual. After returning to the company, he received ne
Fabian's sharp eyes and determined tone made the little boy's father feel a hint of chill, but when he remembered that it was his son who was beaten up, confidence surged within him once more.“You’re so strange, pretty boy. Since you’re not the father of this little thing, what are you doing here? Why are you so righteous now that the little thing has beaten my son up?”The man rolled up his sleeves, looking arrogant and domineering.“Say, Miss Charles, I spent so much money to send my son to school here, and is this how you take care of him? Now that my son was beaten by this little thing, you must expel her immediately. Otherwise, I’ll even report you!”“What did you say? Who are you calling a little thing? Say it again if you have the galls.” Fabian's heart was already ignited by this man, but at this moment, his gaze was like a cold arrow. The man was instantly flustered.“Miss Charles, don't worry. I won't let you lose your job because of this. There should be surveillance c
Meanwhile, Fabian came to Lillian's side, reached out, and caressed her cute little head to comfort her.“Don't be afraid, Lily. I’m here. I’ll never let anyone bully you.”With Fabian by his side, Lillian would never be afraid.Although she was still a very young girl, she had never been afraid of such villains even when they bullied her.Even when she faced the she-devil Lana and was thrown into the pool, she never once begged Lana to spare her. It could be said that she had completely inherited Madeline's genes.Even in the face of criticism and accusations, she was silent because she could not speak. Even so, her eyes were bright and confident.Seeing this, Julie immediately went to mediate.“Mr. Johnson, how could you—”“Yes, I hit someone, but it’s because he deserves it.” Fabian’s expression never changed. His sharp eyes fell on Julie's face as he asked, “Did you get the footage?”“Yes, please go to the office to check,” Julie said and glanced at the man who got up fr
‘Um…’Looking at Fabian's sullen eyes, the man immediately admitted defeat.“You punk, this is all your fault! Hurry up and apologize to her!” the man scolded his son who was standing beside him and pushed his son in front of Lillian. “Hurry up and apologize!”The man was scared, let alone the man’s son.“I-I'm sorry, Lillian.” The man's son apologized tremblingly, not having the courage to look directly at Lillian.Seeing this, the man immediately smiled flatteringly. “Look, my son has apologized. Are you satisfied?”Fabian raised his eyes coldly. “Do you think this is enough? Do you think you’re not at fault at all?”“Um…”“Parents are the best teachers for children. You, as his father, have an inescapable responsibility for how your son turned out.”“...Yes, yes,” the man answered repeatedly. He did not dare to talk back to Fabian at all. “You’re right. I, as the father, have a great responsibility.”He submissively looked at Fabian with a smiling face that looked even ugl
On the way back, Julie sent Fabian to the door of the kindergarten and thanked him.“Thank you for speaking up for me just now, Mr. Johnson.”Fabian did not take it to heart, but when he saw Julie expressing her gratitude, he spoke calmly.“It's nothing. You don’t need to thank me, Miss Charles. I still need to trouble you to take care of Lily on weekdays. If anything happens to Lily, I’ll need you to tell me as soon as possible.”Julie nodded with a smile. “Mr. Johnson, don't worry. I’ll pay more attention to Lily.”“Thanks.”After Fabian thanked her, he was about to leave. However, when he turned around, he saw the man whom he punched just now angrily walking toward him with two policemen.The man quickened his pace when he saw that Fabian seemed to be leaving and pointed to Fabian before telling the police beside him.“Officers, it's this pretty boy. This pretty boy was the one who hit me just now. Look at my face. It's swollen now! You must arrest him!”When Fabian saw thi
