Chapter 236

Since the fish had caught the bait, it was a matter of time before she reeled it in.

Sunday.

Madeline and Felipe had promised Lillian that they would take her to the amusement park.

Even though Lillian was not Felipe’s biological daughter, he still pampered her a lot.

He took good care of Madeline when she was pregnant until she gave birth. After Lillian was born, Felipe was even more considerate and caring than before.

Felipe was a perfect man that was one in a million.

However, Madeline knew that she was not worthy of him. She never thought about having any sort of romantic relationship with him.

“Daddy, I want that bunny.” Lillian’s sweet voice pulled Madeline’s wandering thoughts back to reality.

She saw Lillian with her arms around Felipe’s neck. Her legs were swinging happily as she nuzzled against Felipe sweetly. Her cute finger was pointing at a rabbit-shaped balloon in the distance.

“Please, Daddy?”

Felipe looked at Lillian with love in his eyes. “Of course, I’ll grant our precious Lillian’s every wish.”

He joked and carried Lillian over to the balloon seller.

Felipe rarely called Lillian by her nickname. He would only call her by her real name.

“Daddy’s amazing! I love you so much!” the little girl said sweetly before kissing Felipe’s handsome face cheerily.

Madeline smiled and followed behind them. She looked at the grin on the cute little face and felt that she had given Lillian the perfect name.

Lillian. Lily.

The flower Lily meant rebirth and that was what Madeline wanted for her and Lillian.

She did not want this child to be like her mother. Her mother was destroyed by the man she loved and died from a broken heart.

She wanted a perfect life for this child.

Felipe bought a balloon for Lillian and went on a few rides with the little girl.

Time passed quickly and it was now time for lunch. Lillian held Felipe’s hand happily and pointed to a themed restaurant in front of them.

“Daddy, I want to eat this! That burger is so big!”

“You’re such a greedy little girl. No one will want you if you become fat,” Felipe said while teasing.

Lillian blinked her pristine eyes blankly. She looked at Felipe seriously for a while and pouted before she started to cry.

“Boohoo… Daddy doesn’t want me anymore. I don’t want the burger. I don’t want it…”

Felipe did not think that the little girl would misunderstand him to the point that she even started crying devastatingly.

Felipe carried her in his arms and started comforting her while feeling remorseful. “You silly girl, how would I not want you? You’ll always be Mommy and Daddy’s baby.”

“Don’t cry, Lily. Daddy was just joking with you.” Madeline went over and comforted her as well. She wiped away her tears for her.

The little girl blinked her tearful eyes in disbelief. “So, Daddy, can I have the burger?”

“Of course. I’ll buy you anything you want to eat.” Felipe promised.

Lillian broke into a smile. “Daddy, I want to wee-wee now.”

Felipe looked at Madeline after he heard that. “I’ll go line up. You should take Lillian to the restroom.”

“Okay.” Madeline nodded and held the little girl’s soft hand.

Lillian held Madeline’s hand in one hand and held the balloon in another. She was happy, but when she did not pay attention, the balloon was blown away by the wind.

“Mommy! My bunny is flying away! My bunny!”

Madeline saw this and wanted to grab the balloon. However, she failed to catch it before it was blown even further away.

She watched as the balloon got away from them and at the same time, she was worried about Lily. As she was not paying attention, she crashed into someone behind her.

She felt a strong arm around her waist as a familiar scent wafted from behind her. Then, she felt a warm breath in her ear.

“Careful.”
