Mr. President's Lost Wife 38. Too Much Progress
Rachel nodded. “Please don't take my trust for granted. Take good care of Sky. If something bad happens to her, Lucas and I will kill you." Edmund smiled faintly. “Please watch over us carefully. You will know that I can be relied on and always keep my promises.” "Mama, Uncle Ed, what are you doing there? Are you having fun without me?" Edmund looked up at the veranda. Sky was standing with her hands on her hips. She just made an adorable little stomp. "No, Honey. How could we have fun without you? We're just picking vegetables in the back garden." Rachel pointed to the basket in Edmund's hand. "That's called having fun, Mama. Why didn't you wake me up?" As Rachel walked towards the stairs, Sky followed, shifting like a crab. "We didn't want to disturb your sweet dreams, Dear," Rachel said while hugging her daughter. "How did Mama know I had a nice dream? I dreamed of playing with a baby pangolin! I brought candy to invite lots of ants. It was happy to see lots of food." Rach

"It's unusual for you to break your husband's rules, Rachel. What makes you brave? Mr. Hills?" Hunter inquired.Rachel let out a faint sigh. "Please don't misunderstand, Mr. Green. This is for Sky's sake. She's been holding back a lot all this time. I don't think there's any harm in her stepping out of her comfort zone for once." "Which means stepping into danger?" Hunter raised an eyebrow. Rachel shook her head while letting out a dry laugh. "Don't Arai and the others often swim here? Please don't be Lucas, Mr. Green. Give Sky some freedom." "She's been free and happy, Rachel." "No. In her heart, there are many things she wants to do but is always opposed. Please understand her, Mr. Green. Just take our side this once. For Sky." Hunter glanced back at the water. Sky was laughing while kicking the water. When their eyes met, the little girl waved. "Uncle Green, look! I can almost swim!" The stiffness on Hunter's face faded. Sighing, he waved back. "What have the three of you d

Edmund laughed heartily. "How about someday we return to Mauritius? I can pay for your tickets and accommodation. We can see the waterfall together." "Really? Is that okay? If we come there just to see the waterfall, wouldn't that be a waste?" Edmund blinked as he digested the little girl's words. "No, if I'm running my business too. I'm thinking about providing tour services there." Sky's eyes instantly lit up. The worry was peeled off from her face. "That sounds cool, Uncle. Mama and I will help you as much as we can. We are great at promoting places and their beauty, and also remind tourists to preserve nature." Edmund smiled faintly. His eyes were full of pride. "You don't need to help, Sky. Just accompany me." "Relax, Uncle. We're happy to help you. It's not a hassle. Now, how about we put a star on Mauritius and move on to somewhere else?" Sky took off the star sticker she had kept for a long time. Then, Edmund helped her hold the globe so it wouldn't spin. Seeing the cl

“Yes! That's one of my favorite activities with Uncle Ed, apart from swimming in the river and seeing pangolins. He's a great teacher, Uncle Green. I can memorize many letters thanks to him. Lastly, I have memorized the letter H for Hunter.” Hunter's eyes widened. "You already know my initial?" Sky nodded firmly. "Yes! It looks like a ladder." Not only Hunter, but Rachel was also wide-eyed. "How come?" Sky drew the letter H on the table with her tiny finger. “It has two poles and one step. If we stack several letters H, they will become a ladder." Rachel laughed amusedly at that explanation. “Okay then, what does the name Hunter have to do with a ladder, Dear? As far as I know, Uncle Green rarely uses it.” “Because Uncle Green likes to give hope to the animals he saves, H can also be for hope.” “And what does hope have to do with a ladder?” Rachel raised an eyebrow. “They both take us to higher ground! Uncle Ed said that.” Hunter spontaneously glanced at the man in front of h

“Mr. Hills, you don't need to help me. I'm fine. This is light work,” Rachel said.“Precisely because this is light work, you shouldn't mind me helping you.” Rachel took a deeper breath. She worried that she would become even more fascinated by Edmund. She had to immediately change the subject. "Where's Sky?" “In the living room.” “She doesn't mind you leaving her alone?” Edmund shook his head. “I gave her a task.” “A task?” Rachel finally looked at him again. While putting the clean plates on the rack, Edmund muttered, “I asked her to find a way to memorize the remaining letters. I've given several word options as instructions. Maybe she's using her crazy imagination to find the correlation now.” Imagining Sky's thoughtful expression, Rachel let out an amused sigh. After drying her hands, she moved to the dish rack next to Edmund. “I never thought Sky could have such a high enthusiasm for learning. All this time, she always wandered around when I asked her to study," Rachel s

“Which is more important? Your ego … or their happiness?” These questions had been haunting Edmund for several hours. Even though he closed his eyes and covered his ears with a pillow, Hunter's voice kept ringing. “Wouldn't they be happier if they came home with me?” he muttered while looking up at the dark ceiling. Previously, Edmund was enthusiastic about imagining his life with Alice and Sky. They would greet him every time he came home from work. They could play together every night, or hang out on weekends. Their house would always be filled with jokes and laughter. But now, doubts lingered on him. “Am I selfish if I want Alice back? Would it be selfish of me to take them away from here?” “What if Sky isn't used to life in the city? What if she prefers to live in the forest? Should I buy a new house in a forest area?” “By returning to that house, will Alice have to face her trauma again? Will she fall again? And if her memory comes back, can I clear up all the misunderstand

“Good morning, Mr. Hills. Have you finished exercising?" Rachel greeted in soft voice, but Edmund flinched. His footsteps slowed down. “Hey, you're awake? How are you feeling?" Rachel immediately looked down embarrassed. “Sorry about last night. I don't understand why I could do that. Maybe I felt guilty because I went against Lucas' rules." Edmund unconsciously gritted his teeth. He didn't want to discuss the matter any more. “It's good that you're fine. Is Sky awake?” "Not yet. Looks like she'll wake up late. I disturbed her sleep last night." “Uncle Ed!” Sky suddenly jumped out of the door. Rachel stared at her wide-eyed. “Honey, why are you awake?” “I can't wait to climb the tree and harvest fruit in the forest, Mama. Today, I can circle all the pictures in my journal!” Sky spread her arms and jumped happily. Edmund smiled sadly seeing her cheerfulness. His fears became more real. Sky loved her house and environment too much. Would she want to move? “Uncle Ed, what are y

“No, Sky. You can." Edmund held the little shoulder. His eyes looked at her expectantly. “Every chance I get, I can take you and your mother on an adventure. It's just that the place is not in this forest, but in another forest." Biting her lip, Sky met Edmund's gaze from the corner of her eye. After one slow blink, she exhaled. “Please don't be disappointed, Uncle. I can't imagine what it would be like if I moved somewhere else. Every time I joined Papa to work in another country, I always missed this house and forest. I even dreamed about Canis, Felis, Gigi, and Gusi. I think I would be very sad if I left them. My home is here, with Mama and Papa.” Edmund's heart cracked a thousand hearing that answer. He pondered for a moment, looking at Sky with various feelings. "You really love Lucas and your house, hmm?" Sky nodded. “Yeah, he's my Papa all this time. If suddenly you became my Papa, it would be very confusing even though I like you." Edmund blinked wordlessly. His heartache

"Sky, we should have brought that rifle too. Why did we leave it in the tent? The hunter could have taken it," Emily whispered as she shook Sky's hand. Feeling uncomfortable, Louis elbowed his sister in the arm. "Emily, there's nothing to regret. We'd better think of a way to defeat this evil man." "You think you can beat me?" The hunter laughed harshly. "Don't dream!" The hunter raised his rifle again. However, when he was about to aim, a strange sound came from above. Seeing a big orangutan about to jump from a branch, Sky hurriedly pulled the twins to run. She no longer cared about the rifle lying on the ground. She knew very well that angry orangutan was much more dangerous than the hunter. Meanwhile, the hunter was already stunned. He could only scream when the large mammal fell on him. The other hunters who watched did not dare to act. They didn't even move, afraid that the orangutan would think of them as their next target. "Aaargh! You guys .... Don't just sta
Mr. President's Lost Wife Special Chapter 9. Accurate Shot
The twins fell silent. They didn't know what the right answer was. They didn't want to go back to that cramped confinement, but they also didn't want to be shot. Moreover, the hunter in front of them seemed serious about his threat. "Louis, I don't think we should fight back. He won't hesitate to shoot us. Look, his finger is ready to pull the trigger," Emily whispered anxiously. Louis swallowed hard. He agreed with his sister, but was reluctant to admit it. "Relax, Emily. There must be other ways to survive." He thought hard, forcing his brain to come up with spontaneous ideas. "Sir, how about we negotiate?" he said unexpectedly. The hunter pulled his eyes back from the lookout hole. One of his eyebrows rose. He didn't expect to hear those words. "What kind of negotiation can a little kid like you offer?" "We are not ordinary kids. We are the heirs of the Savior Group, potential great leaders in the future. If you are willing to free us, we will pay you a large amount.
Mr. President's Lost Wife Special Chapter 8. Final Warning
"Papa, what a coincidence, Louis' GPS is with me. I'm looking at the coordinates of our location," Sky blinked stiffly. "That's great, Baby. Can you tell me the coordinates? I will be heading straight there." Sky swallowed hard. Cold sweat beaded on her forehead. "That's the problem. I forgot the numbers I had memorized." Edmund fell silent for a moment. Sky could imagine him sighing in disappointment. "Papa, are you angry? Change." "No, Baby. I'm not angry. I understand that you are too nervous. Try to take a deep breath, calm your mind. You have managed to remember all the numbers and even letters, Darling. Slowly, you will be able to read them." Sky followed Edmund's advice. After closing her eyes for a moment, she looked carefully at the coordinates. "There's a little line sleeping here, Papa." "Okay. That's a negative sign. It means you are south of the equator. Then?" "There's an egg. It's zero, right?" "Yes. You're doing well so far. What's next, D
Mr. President's Lost Wife Special Chapter 7. Caught
"Do I see correctly? There is a human child in the middle of the forest?" The man spoke a language that Louis and Emily didn't understand. An annoyed chuckle came from the other man. "Damn! Just adding to our work." "What should we do now?" "What else? We can't possibly let them escape. They can report to other people. Our plan could be ruined. Let's catch them!" The twins blinked at the rifle pointed at them. Emily immediately hid behind Louis' back, while Louis bravely stepped forward and stretched his arms in front of Mimi. "Don't hurt these orangutans! They are rare animals protected by the whole world. They should not be hunted and traded!" Louis exclaimed loudly. Over Louis' shoulder, Emily peeked out. "Yes! Orangutans must be conserved, not hunted. Don't you feel sorry for them? Look! The baby is scared!" Unexpectedly, the two hunters laughed. Not long after that, another person arrived with a frightening aura. His skin color was much paler than his friends. Obvio
Mr. President's Lost Wife Special Chapter 6. The Right Decision
"No, Louis." Emily frowned. "We can't leave Mimi here alone. She could die." "But that's what she wants. She wants her child to be safe! She will survive. We just need to save her child quickly. I think we can do it. We are trained children, you remember?" Once again, Emily shook her head firmly. "No, Louis. That's too risky. We can't be selfish and think about our own pleasure. How about we just call the forest house? This is a serious matter." While Louis took a deep breath, Sky knitted her eyebrows. She looked very serious with her lips folded inward. "I think Emily is right. We can't solve this problem alone. We need help from adults. Our parents and the foundation people. We have to report this to them. Mimi needs medical help, while the poachers need to be caught." Louis pondered for a moment. He was actually reluctant to contact his parents. He wanted to be independent. However, Emily and Sky's words made sense. The problem was too big for them. "Okay. I'll call Dad
Mr. President's Lost Wife Special Chapter 5. The Gunshots
"Sky, what's that sound?" Emily whispered in a choked voice. "Is that an explosion?" "I think it was the sound of a gun," Louis interrupted before grabbing the smaller girl's arm. "Sky, could it be a poacher?" Sky blinked angrily. "Maybe yes. This area is outside the scope of the foundation. The patrol team only checks it occasionally, when they have time." "Isn't illegal hunting prohibited? Only bad people still kill animals. What do you think they just shot, Sky? Is it an orangutan?" Louis asked with a serious expression. Emily immediately shuddered in horror. "Oh, if the hunters are targeting orangutan, I hope it manages to escape and survive. Orangutans are rare animals. It would be a shame if they became extinct." "And I hope it's not Mimi," Sky continued, stomping her foot. "She always takes her child everywhere. She must have difficulty moving and is vulnerable to attacks." "How about we check it? If it is indeed the work of poachers, we can immediately report this
Mr. President's Lost Wife Special Chapter 4. Children's Adventures
"Honey, have you seen the kids?" Alice asked as she approached Edmund. "Kids?" Edmund looked away from his laptop. His eyebrows raised. "Aren't they still sleeping? I didn't see them come out of the tent." "I thought so too. But after I checked, they weren't there." Edmund looked around. His eyes and ears sharpened. However, no trace of the children was detected. "Are they playing in the back garden?" Alice shook her head. "I've checked it. They're not there." "Chicken coop? Who knows, Sky took the twins to see the chicks." "Not there too." Edmund snapped his fingers. "The geese coop! They must be playing with Gigi and Gusi." Alice took a deep breath. The lines on her forehead looked clearer. "I've looked everywhere, Ed. They're not anywhere." "Have you searched the house? Who knows, they might be playing hide and seek. They might be hiding somewhere." Edmund got up from the chair, about to check another room. At that moment, Russell ran out of the gue
Mr. President's Lost Wife Special Chapter 3. Louis' Promise
Louis' brows furrowed at Edmund's question. "Why did you ask that, Sir? Of course I love Sky. She's my friend. She's like a little sister to me." Edmund blinked stiffly. "Is that so? You think of her as a little sister?" Louis nodded firmly. "Yeah, I think Emily is like that too. She used to want a younger sister. When Russell was born, she was sad. Sky's presence helped her to forget that disappointment." Edmund's lips slowly pursed. His hands were shoved into his pockets. "So, you consider my daughter to be your sister?" he muttered. For some reason, a feeling of relief rose in his heart. "Does it mean you will look after her like your little sister?" "Yes, I will take good care of Sky. I won't make her cry." Edmund's eyebrows knitted together. "But earlier, I saw you picking on Emily. Can you be trusted to look after your younger siblings?" Louis' lips suddenly twitched. While scratching his temple, he chuckled. "About that, I actually like teasing Emily. She's a cr
Mr. President's Lost Wife Special Chapter 2. Watch Over Louis
Everyone clapped when Sky and her animal friends finished performing. It wasn't just the Harper kids who were amazed, but their parents too. "Thank you, Sky. This is the sweetest welcome we have ever received," Kara said with a big smile. "Yes, this is an extraordinary welcome. How did you train those animals? Not just cat and dog, you also managed to train two geese." Frank gave Sky thumbs up. The little girl chuckled proudly. "That's because they're not just animals, Sir. They're my friends and they're smart. I think they want to follow my instructions because we get along well." "They're your friends?" Frank raised an eyebrow. The twins immediately scrambled to explain. "There are no other children here, Daddy. Therefore, Sky only plays with her animal friends." "Sky said she always fed them a lot. I think that's why the animals obey her. They like Sky!" Sky jumped enthusiastically. "Louis and Emily are right. Every day, I spend most of my time with my animal friend
