Chapter 214

"It's not just a feeling. Something's definitely up with Mommy."

Arianna shook her head and muttered, "Do you still remember what we were doing before we fell asleep?"

"I think we were playing."

Alissa's brows furrowed deeply as she found her thoughts a little hazy.

"Why does it feel like I've been sleeping for a very long time?"

"Same here. My body hurts all over too."

Arianna tried to move her arms but felt sore all over her body.

Alissa climbed out of bed as she quickly tried to think things through.

"Do you think Grandma and Mommy fought?"

"That's not possible. Grandma likes Mommy very much."

Arianna shot that thought down at once.

However, Alissa continued, "How else can you explain why we fell asleep while playing and woke up here? Where are we anyway?"

"Should we give Daddy a call?" Arianna suggested.

"That's a good idea."

Alissa got her phone out and called Greg.

He seemed to pick up at once.

"What's up, Allie?"

"Daddy, where are you now?"

Alissa's voice sounded pretty strong over the phone, making Greg feel much more at ease. It seemed like the girls were probably alright now.

"What's the matter? Are you missing Daddy already?" Greg answered with a question of his own.

Alissa was a charmer herself, so she immediately announced, "Of course, Daddy! I miss you so much my stomach is aching."

"Why would your stomach be aching?"

"Because I keep thinking about you."

Greg chuckled at his daughter's coquettish voice.

"My guess is that you're hungry."

"Hehe. Daddy, I feel like eating a slice of black forest cake. Can you bring some to me?"

"Sure. I'll bring some over to you in a few moments."

Greg ended the call and drove straight to the nearest cake shop.

When Arianna heard the sound of a car starting, she leaped out of bed and opened the curtains to see Greg's car leaving. "Allie, look! It's Daddy's car."
