They Hated Me in My First Life, But Now I Have the Love System

Chapter 97: Little Sweetie’s Back Story Chapter 97: Little Sweetie’s Back Story Her feet moved automatically, leading her straight to the one person who could give her answers.

Her father.

“Dad,” she called out the moment she stepped into the study.

The man behind the desk looked up, and upon seeing his little daughter, his face softened into a smile.

He stood up, walked over, and lifted her effortlessly into his arms.

“Ugh Dad!” she huffed, squirming in his grasp.

“You know I’m too old for this.” The handsome soldier, a man in his early thirties, let out a deep chuckle.

“Too old?” he repeated, amused.

“You’re four, Sweetie.” He tapped her nose lightly.

“Just because I taught you almost everything I know, and you insisted on enlisting despite my protests, doesn’t mean you’re not still a child.” He set her down, his curiosity shining through his playful demeanor.

“Now, tell me, how did your meeting with the General go?” he asked, eager.

He had been barely able to focus all morning, anxiously awaiting the result of the meeting he hadn’t been allowed to attend.

But the moment he mentioned it, he noticed something… His daughter’s expression darkened.

Deeply.

And for Little Sweetie, who had mastered the art of concealing emotions, this level of visible frustration could only mean Something was very, very wrong.

“Dad, he sent me to Lionara Kingdom to accompany his sister.” Little Sweetie’s voice was stiff, laced with disbelief.

She looked up, expecting to see her father’s face darken in outrage, expecting him to march straight to the General and demand that the mission be changed.

But instead… His expression remained calm.

No, not just calm, pleased.
