Be Your Lover Forever (Alicia)

Chapter 1303

Isla scratched her head, a little embarrassed. She didn't think too far ahead when she saw someone trying to drag the little rug rat.

Seeing that she returned to her brainless self again, Lexx couldn't help constantly rolling his eyes at her.

Okay, at least she was smart enough to know she had been duped! But who in the world would deal with things so single-mindedly as she would? Didn't she know to speak tactfully even if she wouldn't shirk the responsibility? How could she have blatantly admitted she did it on purpose?! She'd only have people screwing her much worse!

Who would've thought she learned it from TV, seeing how well she handled Yvette's kidnapping. What a coincidence!

So over and done with talking to her, Lexx squatted down to Yvette's eye level and explained. "Yvette, your daddy has something to deal with. Stay with me for now, and I'll bring you to him later; how's that sound?" Hearing that, Yvette nodded, then glanced over at Isla before looking back at him.

"Do you know our code word? Daddy said, other than mommy and him, and also Mr. Butler, anyone who comes to pick me up will have to say the code word!"

Tilting her head, Yvette hesitated a while before continuing, "Even if I know you!"

Instantly, the two adults were amused, and Isla knocked her head with the softest force. "You sure are full of mischief, you little rug rat! Do you think you're some spy? A code word, seriously?"

Quite on guard! But this little one seemed very trusting of her, seeing how she kept calling her 'Aunt Isla' earlier and now holding her hand. Inexplicably, Isla felt a little joyous.

Meanwhile, Yvette shot her a nasty look as she pouted.

"Don't hit my head, Aunt Isla; I'll get stupid. Mommy said... use your tongue and not your hands! So don't hit me; hitting bad!"

"Are you teaching me a lesson, rug rat?"

Seeing that she acted like an adult, Isla intuitively raised her hand but stopped mid-air this time. "Forget it; I'm not going to argue with you!"

Thereafter, Yvette said the code word, "Ring around the Rosie..."

Smiling, Lexx ruffled her bangs and continued, "Where is my Bree!"

Hearing that, Yvette smiled.

"Yay, let's go, Mr. Lopez! Mr. Lopez, I want fries; can we eat while we wait for Daddy?"

"Please don't tell him I asked for it, okay?"

Meanwhile, Isla stared at her, mouth agape; she had wanted to answer, a pocket full of posies"! "That's it? That's the code word? Anyone who heard it would've remembered and will still be able to kidnap you!" Yvette shot a disdainful glance at her this time, her entire face screaming, "you're such a dummy."

While Isla was still in bewilderment, Lexx laughed out loud. "It'll change every day, obviously. No way they'd keep it the same, would they?"

Then, the little one poked her cheek adorably, making a silly face. "Dum-dum; you're such a dummy, Aunt Isla... Mr. Lopez is smarter!"
