Hayden was really such a little devil. Natalie wondered where he'd learned it from.

On the other side, Cecilia interrupted and said, "Hayden, is Natalie pretty then?"

"Of course she is!" Hayden immediately shouted. "Natalie's the prettiest girl I've ever seen. She's even prettier than the prettiest girl in our class."

Natalie was at a loss for words.

She stared at Hayden. "Hayden, how do you already know about all of this stuff at your age?"

Hayden grinned at her, looking like a mini-sized adult. "Of course I know about all this. I'm the most handsome boy in our whole kindergarten. Plenty of girls think of me as their ideal lover, you know." Natalie was rendered speechless again.

Hayden was elated, boasting, "In the future, I will definitely be as handsome as my Daddy. When the time comes, I will charm the pants off plenty of women."

Natalie, who had just taken a sip of milk, almost spat it out.

"I'm going to the bathroom." Natalie excused herself.

Natalie went to the bathroom to wash her face. When she came out, she saw Cecelia standing by the doorside.

Natalie's breathing hitched.

"What's the matter?" She looked at Cecilia.

Cecilia had deliberately stood here to wait for her.

Cecilia nodded.

Her eyes fell on Natalie's face, and she spoke gently. "Seeing you and Hayden talking and laughing at the dining table like that just made me a little emotional. How nice it would be if we could always be like this, and the family could be happy together. Don't you think so, Natalie?"

She looked at Natalie with hope.

Natalie's thick and long eyelashes trembled slightly.
