After thinking for a while, | said, "It''s about to snow again, and it will be noon soon. Do you want to stay for lunch?"Content rights belong to N?velDrama.Org.
| had to say - there are days | didn''t want to see him because of Anne; days when | didn''t even want him anywhere near the
Roberts house.
| even thought about telling Hendrix to stay away from him. This way, no one would take Anne away from me.
But I couldn''t be so selfish!
He paused for a moment, turned off the tap, and then took a tissue to wipe his hands. He looked at me and asked, "Are you
cooking?"
This man...
After a pause, | nodded. "Yes!" | thought for a moment and said, "I''ll cookter, but no one is watching Anne. Would you do me a
favor and look after her for me?"
He raised his eyebrows and nodded.
| let out a sigh of relief. He didn''t stay in the living room. Instead, he went straight into Anne''s bedroom.
A father would always care for his daughter.
Hendrix and I should have a child soon.
| rummaged around the fridge for some food. Anne could only eat healthy food, so | decided to cook only nutritious food for her.
It didn''t take me long to whip up a healthy meal for three.
When | went to Anne''s room to call for them, Anne had already woken up. She was sitting on the bed with Josiah ying a
game. Her voice still sounded hoarse and weak.
Sheughed so much that she started to cough. Josiah helped her by patting her back. His gaze on her was always tender and
loving.
"Food is ready!" | called out, interrupting their lovely father-daughter moment.
No one said | had to be a saint.
When | saw them talking andughing, | felt a little sad. After all, | did raise this child with my bare hands.
She was my salvation.
Both of them came back to their senses. Josiah''s smile faded away, and he bent down to give Anne a hug.
Anne stretched out her hand instinctively and said with a smile, "Mommy, | told Mr. Saunders a riddle earlier. | asked him if | used
a durian and a watermelon to hit his head, which would hurt more? What do you think?
Josiah carried Anne in his arms out of the bedroom. | couldn''t peel my eyes from tracking every affectionate interaction they
shared.
| replied casually, "Durian!"
Anne burst intoughter, and coughed again from the excitement.
Josiah helped make her feel better as he said calmly, "Your voice hasn''t recovered yet. You''re not allowed tough anymore."
Although his words were stern, it was out of love.
Anne stopped coughing eventually.
Then, she looked at me, "Momm
Mr. Saunders hag shecstine-Sniswer
Bu naw ebdid a durian and
watermelon hurt? Of course, your
head would hurt even more if you
were hit!" Please read the original

The little girl went on chattering as she kept holding onto Josiah, making him listen to her riddles.
On the dining table, Anne ate more than usual. She was so excited and happy that it didn''t take her long to fall asleep once she
finished eating.
Josiah packed his medical kit on the sofa and was prepared to leave.
After a moment of silence, | said, "Do you have time, Doctor Saunders? Can we talk?"
He pursed his lips, nodded, and sat back down on the sofa. "Sure!"
| took a small breath and dived
straight to the point. " hen Manique

As soon as | finished my words, his gaze darkened with pain. "I understand!"
“Anne is still your child. No one can deny this," | continued calmly, "Not even Monique."
He looked up at me in astonishment. He asked with a frown, "So, what are you saying?"
"What happened between you and
Monique is you and her business
alone, and | would bate tginterare ''
