Chapter 370 Real Dad? So Old

He just raised an eyebrow. "Penelope, are you cooking?"

"Yes!" she replied impatiently.

"Great, I'm hungry too. Make a little extra."

Penelope glared at Kelvin. "None for you!"

She stormed into the kitchen.

Lucy, in her sweet voice, said, "It's okay, Dad. I'll share mine with you!"

Kelvin's hearty laugh filled the ward.

He pinched Lucy's cheek.

He thought Lucy would always reject him, but she warmed up to him quickly. She even seemed to favor him now, no longer siding with Penelope.

"Lucy, if you give me yours, won't Mom get mad?"

"She won't. Mommy said I'm sick and only Dad can make me better. Daddy works so hard and is so great, I can't let you go hungry!"

"Lucy, Mom is great too."

Lucy blinked. "The doctor said they need to transplant Daddy's bone marrow into me. Just thinking about it hurts. Daddy, I'll be strong and won't cry, so you don't cry either."

"Okay," Kelvin replied, "Neither of us will cry."

"Okay! Promise!"

Looking at Lucy, Kelvin's heart melted.

He wanted to give her all the world's goodness, to watch her grow up, yet he couldn't bear to see her grow up too fast.

"Yes, Daddy?"

Kelvin asked, "Do you not like my white hair? How about I dye it blonde?"

He didn't care about others' strange looks.

But now, he worried Lucy might not accept it.

Lucy was about to answer when a scream ripped through the air from the kitchen. Kelvin's expression changed, and he immediately jumped up and rushed in, not even bothering to put on his shoes.
