Be Your Lover Forever (Alicia)

Chapter 1282

Though she'd have to consider both Willy and Yvette's feelings, Lauren couldn't help smiling.

She took a slice of ham, but before she could put it into her mouth, Yvette blinked and reached her hand out. Amused, Lauren put the slice of ham into Yvette's plate.

That morning, Yvette would stop what she was doing and stare at Lauren whenever she moved, snatching quite a bit of food from her, forbidding her from scooping anything for Willy. As a result, she had more than she usually did, leaving the table with a round little belly. Lauren was still all smiles when she helped Yvette get changed.

"Alright, time to go to school. You're so pretty! You're a good girl, aren't you, Yvette? We're going to be a graceful princess, so we won't fight with other children anymore, is that right?"

"Yes, Mommy..."

Yvette nodded and gave Willy a side-eyed glance before throwing herself into Lauren's arms, wrapping her arms around her neck in reluctance.

"Alright, alright, be a good girl and go to school, and Mommy will buy you a doll and make you yummy food when you come back, okay?"

Lauren comforted her a little, then checked her backpack before standing up and holding her hand.

"Let's go. Mommy and Daddy will take you to school and pick you up later in the evening. Do your best in school, and Mommy and Daddy will work hard too. What are we supposed to do?"

"Do our best! Grow up quickly and become better!"

"Yes, that's right!"

Lauren held Yvette's hand, all joyous as they walked in front while Willy walked behind him, carrying two bags, enveloped in an unusual affection.

"Bye, Mommy..."

Yvette gave Lauren a kiss at the school gates before skipping inside. Though Willy never got a chance to speak the entire time, it was his happiest day in a very long time despite the bit of disappointment and regret.

And in the next few days, living in Lauren's place, sending Yvette to school, and picking her up from school had become a routine for Willy. Worried that Yvette would hate him even more, he didn't dare bring them to his place rashly, much less be too close to Lauren in front of her.

Right then, Willy was listening to a report in the conference room, but his focus was on the clock on this laptop. It was already four-thirty; he should be picking his daughter up now!
