Willy turned around and darted straight into the rain without taking the umbrella handed over by Hart.

Watching the car drifting into the distance, Hart turned around to enter the villa. Right then, in the backyard, Lauren was playing with the baby on her fours. "Miss..."

At the door, Hart reported the situation in detail. Her hands that had been shaking the toy paused before Lauren turned around to glance at him.

"All right, I get it! Don't mention anything in front of Elijah!"

As he lowered his head in response, Hart shifted his gaze downwards. "Noted! I'll take my leave!"

Turning around, he retreated and closed the door gently behind him. Before Lauren could come to her senses, a small figure had climbed onto her body. Yvette babbled.

Grabbing her sleeves and her elbow, the little girl excitedly clambered onto her thighs. Standing up, she threw herself into Lauren's arms, stomping around, giggling as if she was dancing. It was much to Lauren's surprise. Holding the child in her arms, Lauren kissed her on her ruddy cheeks.

"Yvette, you did great! My dear baby, since we've had enough fun, shall we go to bed?"

Carrying the child in her arms, Lauren headed towards her room. Her eyes fell on her daughter's excited ruddy face as a hint of sorrow pervaded her gaze. "Why are you so excited today?"

In the past, Yvette should have been soundly asleep by that hour! Did Yvette know that she was in an awful mood or that her daddy was coming over?

Just as the thought flashed in her mind, a watery smooch came attacking her cheeks. In an instant, Lauren's eyes moistened, sparkling.

She tilted her head in surprise. When Lauren's eyes met her daughter's, a soft head came snuggling in her cuddle with her arms wrapped around her neck, giving Lauren another smooch on the lips.

Patting Yvette on her back, Lauren was shocked. The corners of her mouth could barely resist curling into a helpless lift. "You're indeed a bright kid..."

Holding the child, Lauren exerted more strength in her hands without realizing it as she thought to herself, "This was the best gift God has ever given me! My baby daughter!"
