Chapter 82

Aria hugged my neck tightly in fear. I crossed the road and went back to my car.

My driver was shocked by my actions.

I got inside the car as Aria was still in my arms. I could not believe how little she was. I was holding her in one arm.

Aria did not make any movements. As she leaned her head against my shoulder, she was crying uncontrollably.

I patted her back. I did not know what had happened to her or what she was doing in the middle of the road. "Alpha, who is this child?" my driver asked me.

"Stop your fucking mouth. Can't you see she's crying?" I said while glaring at my driver.

His eyes widened, and he shifted his gaze to the road. He did not. start the car since I had not ordered him yet. After a while, Aria moved her head from my shoulder and looked

at me.

As a result of her crying, I was able to observe that her eyes were puffy and that her nose was red.

I put her in the next seat and asked,

"Where is your mom?"

She sobbed and replied, "I-I lost mommy."

"What? How?"

Her eyes turned teary again. I told my driver to start the car as

Aria began to tell me what had happened to her earlier.

FLASHBACK

Today, Aria and Noah went to the park close to their school. Their mother took them there. They spent a lot of time together. Aria was happy, too. When they were just about to come out of the park, she and No Natalia instructed them to have a seat on a bench, and then she walked to the store to buy some ice cream. After some time had passed, Noah told her that he wanted to go back to their mother and asked her In the way of following him, Aria came to a stop when she

noticed a kitten on the road leading out of the park. The moment she went to pet it, it began to run away from her. She chased it, but at that time, she realized that she was lost.

Due to the fact that she was unfamiliar with the path, she began searching for her mother. She did not know which way he had come from.

She saw someone who looked like her mother. She tried to stop her, but she was not her mother. Aria started crying because she was lost and had no idea where to look for her mother. When Adrian came to her, she found hope as if he were someone close to her. She hugged him out of fear that she might become lost once more.

END OF THE FLASHBACK

"If you get lost again, the first thing you should do is ask

someone for a phone and then give your mom a quick call, okay? "I told Aria.

Seeing her in tears was something that I did not like to see. She was a little child. How could Natalia be so careless?

"Uncle, can you give me your phone?"

I chuckled at her when I realized that she had applied my advice

on me.

"For informing your mom?"

She nodded her head and wiped away the tears that rolled down her cheeks.

She looked relaxed, as though she trusted me. I found it surprising how this girl was crying a while ago but is now calming down because of me.

Why did she trust me? I was a stranger to her, wasn't I? She should not trust just anyone.

I wanted to advise her not to believe in anyone. But looking at her pale face, I could not say it.

She could put her trust in me. I was not that bad, was I?

"You don't need my phone. I will inform your mom about you. Don't be concerned."

I pulled out my phone and dialed Patric's number.

"Are you not coming back?" Patric asked.

"I'm with Natalia's daughter right now."

"You what?"

"I don't like to repeat my words."

"What are you doing with her child? Don't tell me you are trying to take revenge on Natalia for her family's words."

I frowned when I heard him. Did he think like that of me? Would I hurt a child to take revenge on their mother?

"Inform her that Aria is with me."

"Oh, okay." Patric said as he got what the actual matter was.

"Tell me where you are so that I can inform her to take her daughter from you."

Something hit my mind as I smirked while looking outside.

"That's her duty to find out."

I cut the call and turned my head towards Aria.

"Your mom will get to know that you are with me."

She gave me a smile after hearing me. "She won't be worried now."

I was shocked by her sudden maturity. She was not thinking about herself but about her mother.

I told my driver to stop close to an ice cream parlor since Aria wanted to eat ice cream before she got lost.

fell on Aria's upset face.

She was looking at a little girl who was holding a young man's hand. It looked like a father brought her child there.

"Do you want to go inside?" I asked her.

She immediately turned her head away from the window and lowered her head while shaking it.

I felt awkward because of her behavior.

"Tell your dad to bring you here next time," I said to her while looking away from her.

I did not like to talk about Eric, but seeing this child's upset face, I had to say it.

She raised her head and asked,

"My d-dad?"

"What? Doesn't your dad take you and your brother out with him?

"I-I don't have a d-dad."

I frowned at her. Did she not know about her biological father? But I heard that Eric even went to attend the parent's meeting. "Isn't Eric your dad?"

She shook her head. "Everyone thinks that he is our dad. In fact, my friend's parents also think that."

"What do you mean? Isn't he your dad?" I asked with a desperate

tone.

But the moment she replied, I
