Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
That little girl had seen her parents and sister die with her own eyes. She should have used his sympathy to blow him up, but at the critical moment, she cried and told him that she didn’t want to die…
“Daddy asked her to hide in the car first.” Alex stared at the roof and said in a deep voice, “Daddy even promised her that he would save her… But Daddy went back on his word.”
Alex’s eyes darkened. At that time, the situation was critical. He had been careless and the leader of the terrorist organization had climbed into the off-road vehicle.
Alex: “Daddy’s shot didn’t hit the little girl) only that big baddie. However, the little girl also disappeared… The female ghost holding her head yesterday didn’t finish her sentence.”
Amelia understood and muttered, “I knew it. That female ghost holding her head is too evil!” With that, she looked up at Alex and asked softly, “Daddy, are you very sad?”
Alex’s throat was a little dry, and his voice was a little hoarse. “Yes, Daddy isn’t strong enough.”
Amelia looked at Alex in a daze. So her father was like her? He would also feel uncomfortable and his chest would feel stuffy.
“Then will Daddy continue to be a guardian?” Amelia suddenly asked.
Alex looked down at her and said firmly, ‘Yes!” In the past, he only wanted to give everything for the country because he was alone and had nothing to worry about. But now that he had someone he wanted to protect, he understood the meaning of protection even more. Only with a country could he have a home. He wanted his daughter to grow up under the sun.
Amelia seemed to be a little puzzled. She asked in a muffled voice, “Daddy, will you still feel sad when you see those bad things in the future?
Alex smiled and replied, “Yes, but it doesn’t matter. All of us are doing what we think is meaningful. In the past, when Dad came back from a mission and was in a bad mood, he would eat a big ice cream and forget about all the unhappy things.”
In a flash, Amelia suddenly understood. The muffled feeling in her chest disappeared.
“Yes!” Amelia got up and gave him a thumbs up. “Daddy is awesome! We have to cheer together!”
Alex laughed softly. He scooped Amelia into his arms and tickled her.
Amelia giggled and shouted as she dodged, “Daddy is bad, Daddy, I surrender…
Just as the two of them were laughing and playing, Old Madam Walton pushed the door open and entered. “What are you talking about!” She glared. “How old are you? Why are you still so childish? What if Mia can’t breathe later?”
Being glared at again… Alex touched his nose and got up to sit properly. “Yes, yes, yes. I know my mistake.”
Amelia also sat up straight. She placed her small hands on her knees and nodded. ‘Yes, yes, yes. I was wrong. Grandma, I know I was wrong. Stop scolding, stop scolding. If you continue scolding, I’ll be stupid!’
Old Madam Walton was angry and amused. She rebuked, “Alright, go down and eat.”
Downstairs.
Emma stood at the dining table and quickly picked up food. She filled Amelia’s small bowl before sitting down in satisfaction.
Old Master Walton frowned and said sternly, “If Mia wants to eat, let her pick it up herself. Why did you get her so many dishes?” With that, he looked at William. “Also, not everyone is seated. Why are you eating first?”
William obediently put down his chopsticks and muttered, “Grandpa, can you not be so strict with us…
Old Master Walton snorted and subconsciously said, “I’m so strict with everyone!”
George, William, and Emma looked like they didn’t believe him.
At this moment, Amelia came down. When Old Master Walton saw the lively Amelia, he felt completely relieved.
“Come, Mia, eat.” Old Master Walton picked up a pork trotter and handed it over.
George clenched one hand into a fist and pressed it to his lips. “Ahem!”
William and Emma: “Ahem, ahem!”
Old Master Walton:
After dinner, Amelia touched her round stomach and lay on the sofa, not wanting to move. Suddenly, she remembered what her father had said about big ice cream. She immediately got up and leaned close to Alex. She whispered, “Daddy, can we eat big ice cream tomorrow?
Alex glanced at her and lowered his voice. “Alright, don’t tell your grandmother.”
Old Madam Walton came over with fruits and asked with narrowed eyes, “What are the two of you whispering about?”
