Dave thought Alpha Kilian  had waxed poetic about the joys of having children just to tease him.


    However, after seeing the adorable and lovable Donna  on the video call, Dave realized Alpha Kilian  had been telling the truth.


    Alpha Kilian ‘s joy had been indescribable, and he evidently missed his daughter dearly.


    Nheless, Dave griped about Alpha Kilian ‘s behavior earlier. “Why did you move away? What’s wrong with letting me look at your daughter?”


    “I don’t want you to scare her!”


    Exasperated, Dave argued, “Why must you talk about such nonsense?”


    Alpha Kilian  could not help butugh while Dave added, “Your sons are in Darz, and here you are worried that I’ll frighten your precious daughter?”


    After some thought, Alpha Kilian  nodded and admitted, “I guess you have a point.” “And since when have you be so stingy?”


    Alpha Kilian  returned, “I’m not going to let just anyone meet my daughter, you know!”


    His expression caused Dave to frown, and thetter asked, “Are you just boasting now, Alpha Kilian ?” “Am I?”


    “Yes, judging by your expression!”


    Alpha Kilian  raised his brow but did not deny Dave’s words. “Maybe I am!” Despite his irritation, Dave’s thoughts soon moved to another matter.


    He stared at Alpha Kilian  with slightly narrowed eyes and asked, “What’s your daughter’s name?” “Donna !”


    “D? It starts with the fourth letter of the alphabet?” “Yes!”


    “Why not start with ‘C?''” Dave added, “Do you have another kid that I don’t know about?”


    Alpha Kilian  pondered his question and replied, “Just didn’t feel like giving her a name starting with ‘C.''” “Why?”


    “Do I need a reason?”


    Dave shrugged and let the issue go.


    “Why didn’t you go for a more aristocratic name?” he asked next. Alpha Kilian  exined, “I think Donna  is a simple and beautiful name.”


    Dave stared at him and deadpanned, “Are you sure you’re not simply blinded by the owner of that name?”


    Displeased, Alpha Kilian  fired back, “What do you know? You won’t understand since you don’t have kids.” “I feel as though you’re attacking my bachelorhood.”


    “Your instinct would be spot on if you removed the words ‘I feel.''” Once again, Dave was speechless at Alpha Kilian ‘s glib response.


    Alpha Kilian  clearly would not allow anyone near his precious daughter.


    Some thoughtter, Dave suggested, “I have an idea. Could I run it by you?” “No!” came Alpha Kilian ‘s swift rejection.


    Dave knitted his brows and argued, “You haven’t even heard it yet!” “I don’t need to!”


    Dave fixed Alpha Kilian  with an annoyed re and said, “Don’t you think you’re overreacting, Alpha Kilian ?” “You know me better than that.”


    Atst, Dave had nothing to say to that. He decided to change tack and y the friend card. “Hey, we’re closer friends than that. Can’t you let me say my piece?”


    “Of course, but I’d advise you to drop whatever idea you’ve cooked up in your head right now,” warned Alpha Kilian .


    Dave did not heed his advice and suggested, “Can I be your children’s godfather?” “No!”


    Dave frowned and whined, “Come on. Aren’t you going to give it a little consideration?” “Not a chance!” Alpha Kilian  was firm.


    Dave pleaded, “I may never have kids in the future. I’m happy to give everything I have to your kids if I’m their godfather. Why won’t you allow me to do that?”N?velDrama.Org content.


    Drily, Alpha Kilian  retorted, “Can’t I give them enough?” “The more, the merrier, right?”


    Finally, Alpha Kilian  mulled over the suggestion and said, “If you truly have no idea what to do with your possessions, I can try to convince the children to ept them. But everything else is a firm no.”


    “Why not?”


    He replied honestly, “I guess I can’t put up with my kids calling someone else daddy.” “I’m asking to be their godfather, not their daddy!”


    “It’s the same to me,” replied Alpha Kilian  stubbornly.


    Dave was frustrated beyond belief. Eventually, heined, “Your possessiveness hasn’t changed one bit, Alpha Kilian !”


    “That just means I haven’t changed at all!”


    Dave wondered if he would ever be as infuriated as he was at that moment.


    “Have you forgotten what you said when we first met? You promised I could be your children’s godfather if you ever had any kids.” Dave added, “Are you going back on your promise now?”


    Alpha Kilian  carefully considered his im and realized he might have made such a thoughtless promise in the past. The conversation likely urred on a drunken night when they had just established DX Group.


    As that recollection crossed his mind, Alpha Kilian  insisted, “Drunken words should never be taken seriously.”


    “Drunken words? Were you even drunk that night? Alpha Kilian , you’re even a tant liar now!” “Oh? Am I?”


    “And utterly shameless!” Dave added indignantly.


    “I had no choice but to be more shameless,” Alpha Kilian  dered.


    If I weren’t this shameless, Nelly  would’ve run off with another man long ago. She would hardly entertain my attention now.


    Dave could only nod sarcastically in response.


    He promptly grabbed the ss of red wine off the table and finished it in one gulp.


    Alpha Kilian  stood up and patted his friend on the shoulder. “It’ste. You should get some rest.”
