Daniel did not want to waste time, so he forwarded Bernard’s messages to his kids and asked them to
read them to Alice.
The kids were apprehensive about reading the jokes to Alice, but since it was Daniel’s idea, they still
decided to read a few sentences as instructed.
However, Alice did not have any reactions at all.
Benny puffed up his checks and shook his head. It was useless.
Benny took a deep breath and walked over. He looked at Alice and asked innocently, “Mommy Alice,
do you know how many steps it takes to put Daddy inside the fridge?”
Alice, who had been crying, was stunned. Then, tilting her head, she looked at Benny and asked, “How
many steps?”
Benny ced his hands on his hips and raised his hands to show three fingers.
He then said in a childish voice, “Three steps. Open the fridge door, put Daddy in, and close the fridge
door.”
Alice could not help butugh out loud.
The joke was originally not funny, but it became a little funny when Benny referred to Daniel.
Afterughing, her emotions instantly stabilized. She reached out and gently rubbed her kids’ little
faces. “Thank you. But your daddy will be sad to know he has been used in the joke.”
“It doesn’t matter. He’s a man. It’s fine even if he’s sad,” Coco replied.
If their Mommy Alice stopped crying, then Daddy would not need toe anymore.
Even if Daddy came, they would not open the door for him.
When Daniel saw the message from his son, he instantly felt like his sons were burning the bridge after
crossing it. However, they were still his biological sons. Even if he was angry, he could only ept it.
After reading the message from them, Daniel was already downstairs.
He looked up at the window of Alice’s apartment. Reaching into his pocket, he took out a cigarette but
did not light it eventually.
Afterposing himself while facing backward, he turned and entered the elevator.
Since he would probably not fall asleep even if he went back, he might as well stand guard outside his
wife’s door.
After adjusting his emotions, Daniel came to Alice’s door. He did not knock. Instead, he raised his hand
and rubbed the small sketchbook on the door.
Turning around, he sat by the door against the wall.
He thought it would be good enough to be outside Alice’s door even if he could not enter.
After Alice washed her face, she went to take a look at her kids. It was already toote for them to go
back to Daniel’s.
Hence, she took out her phone and sent a message to Daniel.
She asked if the kids could stay overnight at her ce.
When Daniel saw the message, the corners of his lips curled up. He agreed without any hesitation.
He even wanted to go in and stay for the night himself.
Alice did not know that Daniel was outside the apartment. She brought the kids to her room and
changed them into cute pajamas. She made sure they showered themselves clean before hugging
them to sleep.
At dawn, Alice was suddenly awakened.
She rubbed her temples and slowly opened her eyes. She turned to look at the hazy light outside the
window and then at the three kids beside her.
They were as obedient as little kittens. They snuggled in her arms, making her feel extremely satisfied.
“I want to eat pecan pie mu ffin,” Benny babbled in his sleep and even smacked his lips asionally.
Looking at their cute faces, Alice’s eyes were filled with gentleness. She carefully climbed out of the
bed, adjusted their positions, and covered them with the nket again. N?velDrama.Org content rights.
She walked out of the room quietly.

If they wanted to eat mu ffins, she would make them right away,
However, when Alice searched the fridge, she was disappointed not to have enough filling to make the
mu ffins,
She nced at the clock in front of her. The time showed that the morning market should be bustling
with activities. already. She decided to head out to buy the filling so that she could make the mu ffins
the kids wanted.
Alice changed into sportswear suitable for the morning market and tied her hair into two simple braids.
Although bare-faced without any makeup, her eyes were still sparkling and beautiful.
After opening the door, Alice was instantly shocked by the sight in front of her.
The morning sun shone through the corridor’s windows, and her gazended on the handsome man
sitting outside.
Daniel leaned against the wall with one hand on hisp and the other on his forehead. He sat by the
door like a handsome
statuc.
Sunlightnded and passed through his long eyshes.
Even though he was sleeping quietly, he looked like a Greek go d. Everything was mesmerizing about
him.
Alice was dazed for a moment. She was staring at Daniel intently and quietly.
However, she quickly recovered herself and realized he was sitting outside her house.
She was sure that he had the spare key to her apartment.
She did not understand why he was sitting on the ground outside.
She wondered how long he had been sitting outside.
Alice had many questions. She slowly squatted down and gently patted Daniel’s shoulder. “Hey Daniel,
wake up.”
Upon hearing his wife’s voice, Daniel opened his eyes almost immediately.
His eyes looked mesmerizingly misty, as though they could put others into a trance.
“Sorry to disturb you, Daniel said apologetically.
His deep and hoa rse voice was exceptionally alluring in the early morning.
Alice’s heart ski pped a beat. She quickly turned her head away and stopped looking at Daniel’s face.
She asked, “How long have you been here? Why didn’t you knock and enter? Where’s your key?”
“It’s not that long. I didn’t knock because I didn’t want to disturb you when you were showeringst
night. The key is with me, but I didn’t think you would be happy, so I didn’t dare to use it,” Daniel Kaur
answered honestly. He was afraid of doing anything that might upset her.
If not for the fact that he was outstandingly tall and his expression was as usual, cold as ice, Alice
would have thought that she was talking to a child instead.
Alice was not expecting Daniel to sound like a child.
He had been here since she showered with the kids.
In other words, Daniel had been sitting outside the entire night.
Alice looked carefully at the creases on Daniel’s trousers, and her feelings were nothing short of
complicated.
She could not bear to say anything that might sound hurtful to him. Clenching her fists, she coughed
softly while lowering. her jaw. “Your clothes should still be around inside. Go inside and change your
clothes.”
Daniel’s eyes lit up, but he still confirmed with Alice carefully. “Are you saying I can go inside your
apartment?”
“Sure. Alice nodded and turned around, heading back to her apartment.
With his wife’s permission, the corners of Daniel’s lips subconsciously curled up.
The shoe cab still had Daniel’s slippers. Alice passed the slippers to him and whispered, “The kids
are still sleeping. Be quiet when you move around.”
“Yes, sure. Daniel nodded obediently. Then, looking at Alice, he asked, “Are you nning to go out?”
