“Fab…”“What's this? Did a male classmate give it to you?” Fabian asked, his tone sounding calm and gentle, but he could no longer hide the displeasure in his eyes.Lillian did not dare to lie in front of Fabian.She nodded slightly like a child who had done something wrong.The moment Lillian nodded, Fabian's heart sank suddenly.He stared at the youthful and beautiful face in front of him and suddenly realized something.The little Lily of that year had grown up, so it also meant that he was old.He still remembered when he met Lillian for the first time. The child was only five years old, and he was only a 17-year-old boy. Lillian was 18 years old now and she was at such a youthful and energetic age. On the other hand, he was already an old man.Fabian gently put down the love letter in his hand and slowly got up to walk toward the stairs.Lillian stared at Fabian's lonely back for unknown reasons and went upstairs to catch up to Fabian without hesitation.“Fab, why aren’t
“I'll drink it. Go do your homework.”“I'll do my homework, but I want to tell you something first.” Lillian's expression suddenly became serious.Fabian put down the glass, his heart pounding hard against his chest.He was afraid to hear Lillian would say something he did not want to hear.“What do you want to tell me?”“It's about that love letter.” Lillian went straight to the point.Fabian's heart skipped a beat again. “What do you want to say?”Lillian frowned, her big glass-like eyes staring straight at Fabian.“Fab, I’ve always remembered what you said. You said that I can't fall in love early and I have to study hard. I remember it all.”Fabian was stunned when he heard that. He did not remember telling her that.“Fab, I did all of that, but I'm an adult now.”Upon hearing this, Fabian seemed to already know what Lillian was going to say next.This girl wanted to express that she had reached the age where she could fall in love and that she had someone she liked, wh
Fabian appeared at the gate of the kindergarten on time and picked up Lillian smoothly.He could still clearly feel Julie's amorous gaze on him, but he just gave her a polite smile and turned around while carrying Lillian.He carefully fastened Lillian's seat belt and patted the little girl's head with a gentle smile.The little face in front of him was still so immature, and her cute smile was still so innocent.Fabian stopped in his tracks. He could not help recalling the dream he had not long ago.In that dream, Lillian grew up and became a slender and elegant young lady. She could talk and had become extraordinarily cheerful and lively.What made Fabian most grateful was that during the period when Lillian grew up from a child to a young lady, she had always lived under the same roof as him. She grew up safely and healthily under his wings.Probably because he was distracted for too long, Fabian felt someone tugging on the corner of his clothes, only to realize that it was
The scene of Mr. Martinez causing a ruckus and Fabian coming to the rescue with Lillian at the end was all recorded and posted on the internet.This person was still a little conscientious and had censored Lillian's appearance, but Fabian's figure and face were clearly visible in the video.Patty recognized the person in the video as Fabian at a glance.After seeing the comments below, Patty was even more anxious.“Julie, how could you fall in love with a single father?”Julie frowned. “Yes, I won't deny it. I do have a crush on Mr. Johnson.”“What?”“Tsk tsk… Julie, do you really like this single father?” The look in Mrs. Gill's eyes was very subtle. “Someone dug up all his information, and it turns out that this man is Yorick's younger brother. Back then, Yorick stirred up all kinds of troubles and did whatever he wanted in F Country. His sister, Lana, was also notorious in our circle.”“What? He's Yorick and Lana's younger brother?” Patty was even more nervous, for fear that
“I did,” Fabian admitted frankly.Julie thought she would feel embarrassed because of this, but she did not know why she still felt very relaxed. Even so, she still felt a little embarrassed.In order to not make Julie feel embarrassed, Fabian smiled and said, “I wanted to help you get out of that situation, Miss Charles, but I didn't want to cross the line. I also didn’t expect someone to have taken a video and put it on the internet. Lily and I have caused you much trouble. I'm really sorry about that.”Fabian paused as he spoke, then, he glanced at Lillian softly.“But Miss Charles, rest assured, there’ll be no such trouble in the future.”Julie was stunned for a moment when she heard the words, and she inexplicably felt a strong sense of loss coming up from the bottom of her heart.She looked at Fabian suspiciously, and sure enough, the words she heard next made her feel remorseful.“Miss Charles, I’ve found a more suitable school for Lily, and it’s closer to where I work so
Since Julie was about to think that way, it showed that she was a reasonable person.“Lily.” Julie walked up to Lillian and squatted down, giving her a friendly blessing. “Lily, I really like you. I hope you can be happy every day, and I hope you’ll be able to speak soon.”Lillian was a sensible child. She raised a sweet smile and nodded vigorously, indicating that she acknowledged Julie's blessing.Julie stood up and faced Fabian. Right now, there was a little more admiration in her eyes and a little less of her unwilling persistence before.If one liked someone, one did not necessarily have to stubbornly fight for it.Julie did not say anything and just smiled at Fabian.Fabian did not say anything more either. He bent over and picked Lillian up in his arms. Before turning around, he gave Julie a friendly smile.“Miss Charles, you can still come to me if you need help in the future. After all, I still owe you a favor.”Julie smiled and shook her head. “You stopped owing me an
Ava stared at the empty ward for a while. Then, she returned to her senses and immediately went to look for Daniel.However, after looking around for a while, Ava could not find Daniel, which made her feel a little nervous.At this time, Gina also came in.She saw that the ward was empty, and Daniel, who was supposed to be lying on the hospital bed, had disappeared.“What’s going on? Where’s Dan? Did the doctor take Dan away?” Gina looked at Ava and asked with an unfriendly expression on her face.Ava was used to Gina's attitude, so she did not bother to argue with Gina. Instead, she replied, “I want to know as well.”“How could you not know? You came before me.”“Dan wasn't in the ward when I came,” Ava said and turned around. “I'll go to the nurse's station and ask.”“Wait.”Gina grabbed Ava, her face was dark.“Ava, let me tell you this. Dan has suffered a lot and gotten a lot of injuries because of you. Because of you, both Naya and her mother have been sent to prison. It
“I'll be right back!”Gina hurriedly ran back. Suddenly, she turned back and stopped Ava, who was about to follow her.“Don’t follow me! You’re not welcomed at our house.”Despite Gina's warning, Ava could not stop herself from looking for Daniel.She did not know what was going on. How could Daniel suddenly be discharged by himself? He had obviously been in a coma on the hospital bed. He did not wake up this whole time.On the way there, Ava called Daniel, but Daniel did not answer.Ava did not know if Daniel had his phone with him, but in short, she could not get into contact with him.She wanted so badly to stand in front of Daniel right now, but there was traffic on the way.When Ava followed Gina into the door of Graham Manor, she heard Gina's sharp voice. “What? Dan’s gone? Where did he go? D-Didn't he just wake up? What the hell is going on?”“Look at this and you'll know what's going on." Daniel's father sounded like he was reproaching someone, then he seemed to hand s
