Her Precious Baby

Angeline wondered if that was all he had to say. She waited for another half a day, but Evander still did not say anything more than just that short reply, making her perplexed.

Is that it? I thought he would be furious and question me.

Evander’s reaction confused her, but when Angeline recalled how she slapped him back in the car and how he would usually behave, she was certain that he was still upset.

Resigned, she went to the bedside and caressed Floretta’s head with a tinge of sadness in her heart.

He should not have just left Floretta alone, even if he is angry with me.

Floretta woke up halfway through her sleep, so Angeline gave her some food that she happened to keep for Floretta earlier, and the two went to bed together after that.

The next day, all the guests in the production team had to finish some tasks in order to get breakfast.

Given Jacob’s unattentiveness, it did not occur to him that Floretta needed anything more than just a few sets of clothes to be well-equipped for the scorching sun in Summerbank.

Smiling in resignation, Angeline put on sunscreen on Floretta’s body, tied her hair, and helped her put on the light blue uniform the film crew distributed yesterday before buttoning up her clothes.

“Angel, did Daddy call?” Floretta asked, rubbing her tired eyes and looking at her.

Angeline was caught in a difficult situation by the girl’s abrupt question. However, after a brief contemplation, she figured she should not worry the girl, so she replied gently, “Of course. He was happy to know you’re safe and even asked me to take good care of you so you can enjoy your holiday.”

“Really? He allowed me to come? He is not punishing me for it?”

Seeing Floretta’s jaw drop in surprise, Angeline shook her head speechlessly as she finished off the last button.

“Actually, your dad is strict with you only because he loves you. He will understand if you talk to him nicely, so don’t run away secretly again, all right?” Angeline advised patiently, rubbing the girl’s nose with her long fingers.

Exhilarated, Floretta smiled so widely that her eyes curved into crescent shapes.
