Chapter 163 He’s Way Too Direct
He continued, “I’ve only ever been looking for you.
“Alice, stop hiding from me. Just give me a chance to get close-even if it’s only as friends, okay?
“Of course… I don’t want to be just friends.”
Daniel always said things that left Alice speechless.
She had a pretty little face and had been chased before.
Well, she still got chased now-just not by anyone as high-profile as Daniel.
The ordinary guys who pursued her always made sure to say, “I don’t mind that you’re mute.”

Raising Nina alone those two years had been full of little accidents and scares, but Amelia had given her all.
Now, the fearless little girl hopped off the bed without slippers.
Bare chubby feet pattering, she ran out to find Lucien.
“Lucien!” she called out.
She had no idea where he was, so she just yelled at the top of her lungs while searching.
She toddled along until she reached a small pavilion.
Inside was a rocking chair, a wooden table, and on the table-big, beautiful strawberries she loved but was never allowed to eat!

lit up like stars.
She dashed over and reached with both chubby hands.
