Chapter 214


    The vet’s words cut ra to the core. She cradled Snow’s head, showering it with kisses. Tears


    traced the elegant line of her jaw and fell onto Snow’s pristine white fur.


    ra’s voice was choked with emotion. “Snow, you’re not an orphan. You’re Mommy and Daddy’s


    treasure. Mommy loves you so much, and Daddy loves you too. We’ll never abandon you.”


    At her words, hot tears welled up in Snow’s bright eyes as well.

    Even the doctor was moved. She stroked Snow’s head and said, “Snow, you’re the most loved


    treasure of your parents. Now, I’m going to perform a little surgery on you. It might hurt a bit, but you


    need to be brave, okay?”


    Snow seemed to understand, remaining silent throughout the procedure.


    ra’s heart ached even more. It felt like it had been ages since she had cried like this.


    She was holding the sleeping Snow, and her tears continued to fall relentlessly. Her guilt towards


    the little creature peaked.


    In that moment, a suit jacket was draped over her shoulders, and Ian’srge hand gently massaged


    her head. In a deep voice, he said, “For Snow’s sake, can we talk seriously?”


    ra didn’t refuse. Wiping her tears, she said, “Let him stay with me for a while. When he misses


    you, I’ll bring him to you.”


    Ian’s gaze, deep and intense, held hers. “ra, don’t you think Snow deserves a loving home?


    Anders stayed with Elle for their child’s sake. Can’t youe back to me for Snow? We can be a


    family again, just like before. I’ll take you both out for fun, okay?”


    His words were cautious yet filled with longing.


    ra’s mind was flooded with happy memories. She and Snow would y in the backyard, waiting


    for Ian toe home from work and then rushing to greet him. She had thought those were the


    happiest days.


    But now, they became painful memories.


    ra’s eyes lowered. Hershes were still wet with tears. Her voice was nasal from crying. “Anders


    did it to cure his child’s illness; our situation is different. A loveless home can’t protect a child. It only


    causes harm. Isn’t that what our own families were like? Did you feel happy as a child?”


    Her words left Ian speechless. The business mogul, who never lost in negotiations, always felt


    slightly at a disadvantage with ra. He let out a bitter chuckle. “Having awyer for a wife is


    terrifying. I can never win an argument with you. What am I supposed to do?”


    “So, I advise you to think twice before getting involved withwyers. You won’t get the upper hand.”


    “Then I won’t take it. Can’t I just admit defeat?”


    As Ian spoke, he gently arranged the stray locks of hair on her forehead. His eyes reflected a


    tenderness he had never shown before. Those dark, alluring eyes shimmered under the light above,


    like a night sky filled with stars.


    For a brief moment, ra was touched, but it passed in a sh.


    Yet even that was caught by Ian. He casually undid a button on his shirt, revealing the perfect lines


    of his corbone. His Adam’s apple rolled enticingly.


    He leaned in close, and the heat in his gazended on ra’s face. His voice, raspy and low with


    barely contained heat, brushed against ra’s ear. “In this life, I only want Attorney ra to take


    advantage of me.”
