Chapter 1449


    Chapter 1449


    “Mommy has a man she fancies. Because of this man, she can’t date anyone else.”


    La curiously inquired. “Who is this man Mommy likes? Where is he? Why doesn’t hee and date


    Mommy?”


    Ellinor was speechless.


    Every child seemed to be a never-ending book of questions, didn’t they?


    If anyone else asked her this question, she wouldn’t think about answering it. But for her own daughter,


    she couldn’t ignore it.


    With a sigh, Ellinor responded. “The man Mommy likes is away dealing with some matters. When he


    returns, he’ll naturally be there to date Mommy.”


    La posed another question. “Is the man Mommy likes Daddy?”


    Caught off guard, Ellinor candidly nodded at her daughter. “Yes, the man Mommy likes is indeed your


    Daddy!”


    But this didn’t please La, who pouted unhappily. “I don’t like Daddy!”


    Confused, Ellinor asked, “Huh? Why don’t you like Daddy? You’ve never even met him.”


    With a huff, La retorted. “That’s exactly why I don’t like him. In fairy tales, the prince always shows


    up to rescue the princess when she needs him most, even bravely fighting dragons for her. But Daddy


    has never been there for Mommy. Daddy doesn’t like Mommy. So, I don’t like him either!”Text content ? N?velDrama.Org.


    The logic of a child could sometimes be amusingly baffling, yet somehow it also struck a chord in


    Ellinor’s heart.


    “Before you were born, he would always show up when Mommy needed him and protect me.” Ellinor


    said, her voice heavy with emotion,


    Still puzzled, La asked, “Then why doesn’t he show up after we were born? Does he not like us?”


    Ellinor shook her head. “No, it’s not that he doesn’t like you. He’s just tied up with some stuff. Trust


    Mommy. One day, your Daddy wille back, and you’ll grow to like him too.”


    La pouted her lips in a grudge. “But Mommy often looks sad at night while clutching your pillow. It’s


    cause he’s not there for you.”


    Ellinor never expected that her three-year-old daughter could perceive and empathize with her


    emotions.


    She felt touched and managed a faint smile. “Everyone has their moments of sadness. It’s normal. Your


    Daddy has his too, and Mommy isn’t there for him either. La, Mommy doesn’t want you to overthink


    things at such a young age or to hate your own Daddy. Believe in Mommy. One day, we will ovee


    all obstacles and be a united family.”


    After looking into her mom’s sincere and determined eyes, La threw herself into her arms. “I hope


    that when Daddy’s not around, Mommy will be happy and fulfilled too.”


    “Mommy will.”


    After their heartfelt conversation, Veronica and Moran returned from their stroll.


    Ellinor stood up and asked, “So, any luck finding a kite stall?”


    With her cheeks blushing from holding hands with Moran, Veronica shook her head regretfully. “Moran


    and I circled the whole area, but we couldn’t find any kite stalls. The kite we saw earlier must have


    been brought from home.”


    Ellinor sighed and turned to Adrian. “Since we couldn’t find any, Mommy will order one online when we


    get home. We cane back here to fly it next time, okay?”


    Adrian was clearly disappointed and mumbled, “Oh… okay.”


    He had really been hoping to meet the owner of that kite.
