A week later, in MK Manor, Hunk was sitting on the sofa with Amy in his arms.
He was reading her some fairy tales, deeply amused by her silly words and adorable reactions.
"Grandpa, why did Snow White eat the poisoned apple?"
Amy's little voice tugged on Hunk's heartstrings and made him feel inexplicably happy, especially now that he knew that she was his granddaughter.
Louis, who was sitting next to them, was reading today's financial newspaper. Seeing that they were reading a fairy tale book, he could not help saying, "Father, I really have to take Amy to school today."
Hunk waved his hand indifferently and said, "It doesn't matter. Amy is very smart. It won't matter much if she absents herself from school for two days. We can actually just hire a private tutor to teach her at home."
Louis sighed and scratched his head.
Ever since Hunk had found out that Amy was his granddaughter a week ago, he had asked her to move to MK Manor. He wanted Amy to stay with him so that he would be able to forge and deepen a grandfather-granddaughter relationship with her. He had been inseparable from the little girl ever since she arrived.
Louis had no choice but to do whatever this stubborn old man ordered.
"Okay, but Father, Taylor hasn't seen Amy for a while," he said.
Upon hearing Taylor's name, Amy sat up straight and chirped, "Grandpa, can my mommy come over and visit some time?"
Smiling, Hunk pinched Amy's nose and answered, "Of course, my dear. She is your mother. She will always be welcome here."
Louis whipped his head toward Hunk and frowned. He narrowed his eyes and asked, "What do you mean, Father?"
Keeping his eyes on Amy, Hunk told Louis, "Invite her over tonight. Our family should have a family reunion dinner."
Louis was stunned for a moment. It took almost half a minute before he came back to his senses and responded with a smile. "All right, Father."
It seemed that little Amy had done him a big favor and persuaded Hunk to accept and welcome Taylor.
The next morning, a black Maybach slowly pulled over at the gate of the charity foundation.
As Taylor unfastened her seat belt, she smiled at Louis, who was sitting on the driver's seat. She told him, "You really didn't have to drive me here. I could've gotten here on my own."
With one hand on the steering wheel and the other on the gearshift, Louis sat leisurely and replied with a faint smile, "Can't I enjoy the pleasure of driving my girlfriend to work?"
When Taylor heard Louis call her his girlfriend, her heart skipped a beat and then went on full gallop.
Then, Louis' expression turned serious. "Please take good care of Emily."
Taylor became serious as well. She said solemnly, "Don't worry, I won't let anyone else hypnotize her again."
Last time, Jonas had gotten a chance to hypnotize Emily. Emily was in a special situation, so Taylor thought that she could not leave her alone at the charity foundation anymore.
"I will send someone to guard you while you work here as a volunteer," Louis said in a very gentle voice.
Taylor felt warm in her heart. Then, she blinked and said, "All right."
Louis smiled and gently kissed Taylor on the forehead. The kiss was light and quick, but so pure that it made Taylor's heart beat even faster.
"You're my lady, and you should be protected well."
Louis's deep voice was intoxicating to her ears.
With a red face, Taylor ran out of the car. If she had stayed after that kiss, she would not have shown up to work at all.
After entering the charity foundation, she went directly to Emily's office.
