Hi, guys! Thanks for reading. Have a nice day!
"Summer, what's going on? Are you okay?" Louis asked with a worried expression.Summer turned around. Seeing Louis and the others, she gasped. "Did I make a scene? Sorry, Uncle Louis. I was just trying to stop the misunderstanding between Grace and Uncle Fred."Louis held the toddler. "What misunderstanding?"Summer pointed at Grace. "I was interrogating Grace earlier. I asked her the reason she came here. I said she could join our event if she had good intentions. Then ...."She pointed her finger down. "Grace took it out of her bag. She said it was a gift. I think she wanted to apologize. But apparently Uncle Fred misunderstood. He thought Grace wanted to hurt me, so he attacked her. He bent Grace's arm like this until Grace winced in pain."The toddler twisted her arm back, simulating Grace's position earlier.Meanwhile, Emily was wide-eyed. "Grace wants to apologize?" she muttered in amazement.Grace pressed her lips with her chin. She actually didn't want to admit it. There were
Seeing how tense Louis was, Emily whispered, "Hey, since when did you become a coward? Come on, Louis. Welcome your bride bravely. This moment will always be remembered by Sky. You will regret it for the rest of your life if you fail to look cool.""What do you mean, Emily? I'm Louis Harper. Whatever I wear, I always look cool. I was born to be a model, and I'm not a coward," he grumbled with a stiff expression.Emily smiled. "Then, stop frowning. You look ugly if you have wrinkles. And stop blowing the air. It makes you look nervous. Also, straighten your back. You look weak if your shoulders are down like that.""Can you stop bothering me? All I need is some peace and calm. My heartbeat is too fast," Louis finally admitted.Emily could no longer hide her amusement. She turned her brother's shoulders to face her. While laughing softly, she observed his appearance from head to toe."You're already perfect, Louis. What are you afraid of? Sky must be amazed by you. You don't have to be
“Stop! You can’t marry that girl, Mr. Louis Harper. I will never give you my blessing!”Everyone gasped at that cute, high-pitched voice, and Louis was no exception.He was kneeling on the floor, holding a ring box. When he turned his head, his jaw dropped. His eyes widened, not believing what they had caught.A little girl was putting her hands on her hips at the entrance of the restaurant!Her bear jumpsuit made her look super cute, especially with her puffed-up chubby cheeks and forced-to-look-scary eyes.“Gosh! Who is that little girl? How dare she ruin my proposal?” Louis thought, furious.A week ago ....“I’m not sure about telling you this, but I think you deserve to know. Louis is planning to propose to his girlfriend this Saturday. Maybe there’s something you want to tell him. Do it before it’s too late.”Sky tried to forget that information many times. However, her best friend's voice kept echoing.The shadow of Louis, her first love, also refused to leave her mind. The long
Now, at the restaurant where Louis proposed to his lover ....The room was filled with whispers. The waitresses, the guards, even the lurking paparazzi—were all busy with their own assumptions. Their eyes were fixed on Summer.“Oh my! Look at that little girl! Doesn’t she look like Mr. Harper?”“Not Mr. Harper, but his twin. She looks exactly like young Emily. Only their hairs are different. That little girl has curly hair! And look! Even her eyes are the same. They're gray too!”“But Emily and Louis are twins. If the girl looks like little Emily, then she looks like Louis too. Could she be the child from the scandal five years ago? But why did she only show up now? Where has she been all this time? And where is her mother? Why did she come here alone?”Hearing those questions, Grace Evans' breath grew shorter. Even though she tried to hold her annoyance in, her shoulders kept moving up and down.“Louis, explain to me. What is happening? Who is that little girl?” she asked in a thin,
“Sir, can you smile a little? You look more handsome when you smile. Aaakh!”Summer finally got away from Louis. She was wincing in pain as she held the hand that was twisting her ear.“Sir, why are you pulling my ear? I am a good kid,” she said with her head tilted.“This is the consequence of you disobeying my warning. Call your mother now!”“Mommy's not there. I came here alone.”“I won't let go of your ear until your mother comes here.”The little girl frowned even deeper, her eyes filled with tears. “Then just keep pinching until my ear falls off. Mommy won’t come. She doesn’t even know I’m here.”Louis' eyebrows knitted together suspiciously. He glanced away, trying to get a clue. That's when his eyes caught the presence of paparazzi at the window.“You guys,” he glanced around at the guards, “catch those rats! Delete all the photos on their cameras. I don’t want this incident to spread. And you .…”As the guards moved out, Louis stared at Summer with an unfriendly expression. H
The little girl chuckled. “Nobody, Sir. It was my own idea.”Louis’ eyes widened. He was surprised that the toddler seemed honest.“It's you who wanted to ruin my proposal? A four-year-old girl? Not anyone else?” he sighed in disbelief.Summer pouted her lips. “Yes, Sir. Is it hard to believe me?”“How did that come to your mind?” Louis asked curiously.“Because I couldn’t stand seeing Mommy lonely and sad.” Summer's face dimmed. “Since the news about you and Grace Evans spread, Mommy had been a bit gloomy. I thought it broke her heart. But Mommy deserves to be happy like other women. Everyone deserves to be happy! That's why I want her to have a husband too. It's you!”Louis fell silent for a moment. His brain was busy processing. “Who is your mother?” he asked doubtfully.Summer blinked. Her lips pursed. “Do you still not know who Mommy is? People say I look exactly like her. You should remember right away. Besides, you two used to be so close.”Louis was stunned. The image of Sky H
While the officer was busy tracking Summer, Sky's phone rang. Seeing an unknown number contacting her via video call, her breath hitched.Could it be a kidnapper asking for compensation? Or was it a good person who accidentally found her daughter?Sky answered the call with a pounding heart. However, when she saw the face that appeared, her anxiety vanished. Her eyes widened, reflecting astonishment and surprise.“L-Louis?”Louis had actually frowned before. He was ready to vent his anger at Sky, demanding accountability for the mess her daughter had caused.However, when the beautiful face covered in tears received his video call, his anger faded. A feeling of pity and longing arose from the corner of his heart.“Sky,” his tongue was numb at the name.Sky blinked. Looking down, she wiped her eyes. She didn't want Louis to know about her anxiety. She wasn't ready for her status as a single mother to be revealed.“Hi, Louis. Long time no see. What’s up? Shouldn’t you be happy with your
“Spending time with Mommy is not a waste, Sir. Mommy is a wonderful woman. You can talk to her about anything. She knows everything! If you two are talking, I promise not to disturb you. I can play in the yard by myself. Besides,” Summer took a deep breath.“Didn’t you two use to be best friends? I heard that you used to play and go on vacation together. I think Mommy would be very happy if you guys could relive the good times. Even now, Mommy still talks about it often. She really enjoyed your friendship. With Aunt Emily and Uncle Russell too!”Louis fell silent for a moment. The times Summer had mentioned flashed through his mind. But in the blink of an eye, he buried them again.“Sorry, I don’t have time for that. Besides, it’s all been a long time. Even if I did it again, nothing would change. I still can’t marry your mother. The one I love now is Grace Evans. She’s the one I’m going to marry.”Summer pouted. Her eyes were suddenly thick and shadowy. Before she could express her an

"No, Miss Evans. I do know about that. If you still doubt it, just ask your own heart. You don't love my daddy. That's why," Summer put her hand on Grace's shoulder. Her fingers looked cute as she patted her."I'm sure you will meet the right guy one day. You will definitely be happy when you receive sincere love from him. Trust me," she gave two reassuring nods.Grace snorted lightly. "Why should I believe you? There's no way I let you manipulate my mind."Summer suddenly became confused. "What is manipulating?"Grace gasped. "Don't you know? Manipulating is influencing someone in order to gain an advantage. It turns out you're not that smart, hmm?""Everyone has strengths and weaknesses, Miss Evans. I may not have known many words, but that doesn't mean I'm not smart. I am smart! It's just that my intelligence is in a different area. Aren't you the same?"Grace's eyes narrowed. "What do you mean?""You also have strengths and weaknesses, right? You may be smart in business. But, whe
Despite her hesitation, Summer took the invitation card from Grace. She looked at the thick paper carefully. After observing every picture and writing on the surface, she muttered, "This looks genuine. Let's test the texture."Summer touched the paper with her tiny finger. Feeling the slightly rough surface, she mumbled again, "The texture of the paper is also the same as the real one. The lines on the letters too. Now let me see through it."Summer lifted the invitation card. Seeing that, Omega bent down."Little Lady, you are checking an invitation card, not a banknote. There is no need to see through it."Summer glanced at the guard with an unhappy expression. "Please keep it quiet, Omega. I am concentrating.""Oh, okay," Omega straightened his back again.Watching the behavior of the two people, Grace took a deep breath. "How is it?" she asked with a high
Cayden nodded. "Sure you can."He waved to Omega, who was trusted as the cameraman. The young man rushed over.For a few moments, Summer was busy taking pictures with everyone. It was like a fan meet-and-greet, full of laughter and emotions.When everyone was done taking pictures with Summer, Omega asked Orion to take over the camera. He also wanted to take a picture with the adorable flower girl. Summer couldn't stop laughing, knowing that Omega was joining her fandom."Oh, this is such a happy day. I've never felt so popular," she joked with a giggle."You're Louis Harper's daughter, Baby. You were born to be popular," Louis whispered as he kissed her chubby cheek.Summer giggled again. "Being popular is so much fun. I hope it will help my book sales and fill my bank account. Hopefully the parapazi won't ruin the good side. I want to live my life free and happy even though I have a lot of fans.""You don't have to worry about that. I can set up the best security system to ensure you
Everyone rose from their chairs, except Louis. He was still being held in place by Philip."Look! Even old Grandma Vivian is allowed to stand. Why can't I?" Louis grumbled. He couldn't wait to see the bride."You're the groom, Louis. Be patient," Philip patted the shoulder he was holding. Louis could only surrender.Meanwhile, Russell cleared his throat again. "Everyone, let's welcome. The most beautiful girl today!"In an instant, everyone gasped. Their eyes widened. Their mouths opened in awe."Oh, my God! She's so beautiful!" Kara sighed as she gripped her husband's arm."And so sweet! Louis is so lucky to have such a perfect girl," Frank implied before kissing Kara's temple."And she makes my dress look perfect!" Emily exclaimed with a beaming smile.The more compliments Louis heard, the harder his heart pounded against his chest. He began to feel short of breath. No matter how many times he tried to peek, Philip always blocked him well."Oh, come on, Uncle. Let me see a little,"
"M-my sparrow doesn't like strange foods, Summer. He only likes seeds," Louis said with his eyebrows knitted together.Summer's forehead also wrinkled. "Is that so? What seeds does he like?"Louis immediately thought of Sky. However, since a child was sitting in front of him, he quickly dismissed his dirty thoughts."I'll prepare the food later. You just need to practice how to walk silently. My sparrow is very sensitive. Just a little vibration is enough to make him fly away."Summer's mouth rounded again. "Oh, I think that's a very difficult challenge. But it doesn't matter. I will practice hard. When I return to L City, I must have been able to walk like a ninja," she nodded firmly.Not wanting to prolong the conversation, Louis stroked Summer's hair. "Good. Now, go to the bathroom. Wash your face and brush your teeth. Your mother is preparing breakfast. It will be ready soon.""Okay, Uncle!" After kissing Louis' cheek, Summer jumped down from the bed. She walked out, humming, "Unc
Pursing her lips, Summer did another search. For a few moments, her eyes moved nimbly, sweeping the screen of her phone."Sparrows are usually very shy birds. No one can see a sparrow resting or preening its feathers with its beak. They are always wary of humans. If a human approaches, they will quickly fly away. They rarely bond with humans."Summer hit the bed with her fist. "There's no mistake! Uncle Louis must be keeping his sparrow in his backyard. Because the bird is shy, he has to hide its nest. Maybe that's why Mommy is afraid to see it. Not because it's scary, but because it's too shy. Mommy must be afraid of making them fly away!"Squinting, Summer guessed where the hidden nest was located. Her expression changed to confusion after a while."But if sparrows are so shy, how can Uncle Louis keep one of them? They must have flown away as soon as we approached them. Should we ask Uncle Louis about his trick? He must have a secret way to do it."Suddenly, someone knocked on the d
Sky pulled her hand away from Louis' ear. "Why do you think my parents aren't staying here tonight? They want you to have the guest's room!""Can't we sleep together tonight?" Louis asked, like a child expecting candy.Sky snorted lightly. "We just agreed not to talk about dirty things, Louis.""Sleeping together isn't dirty, Sky. We just lie down, close our eyes, and cuddle. Where's the dirty part?""No, Louis. We have to set a good example for Summer. Only married couples are allowed to sleep in the same room," Sky refused firmly."Summer's asleep, Sky. We just have to wake up earlier tomorrow. She won't know," Louis said, stroking Sky's hand."No. A big no. I don't want us to get into trouble, Louis. Now turn around. Let me clean your right ear," Sky patted Louis' arm.Louis turned around with disappointment. "Oh, fine."Unbeknownst to them, a toddler had quietly crawled away from behind the couch. Upon arriving in her bedroom, she immediately patted her chest and let out a sigh of
