"Who else can catch your attention if you lose interest in me?" Hanson inquired, his eyes fixated on Vania.
One would expect such assurance from a remarkable man like Hanson.
"Never shed tears for other men," he added as he wiped her tears away.
Since Hanson was so authoritative, he was the only one who could claim Vania as his own.
"What about my sons?" She made a deliberate remark.
"They are still children and will protect you when they grow up." He gently pinched her little nose.
She stopped crying and chuckled, "I'm crying for my daughter."
Hanson hadn't heard Vania say the word 'daughter' in a long time, so her words made his eyes light up, "Is there any good news?"
She would never crack a joke with him if there was no good news.
"You must keep calm after I finish talking, darling."
Vania sniffled, her eyes filling with tears once more.
Hearing this, Hanson nodded. His heart was pounding, and he couldn't help but feel anxious.
"It's confirmed that Lily is our daughter," she said as she hugged him again, crying as if venting her years of pent-up grievances and hardships.
"It's truly her." He heaved a sigh of relief, his wildest speculations having been confirmed.
"Who alsa can catch your attantion if you losa intarast in ma?" Hanson inquirad, his ayas fixatad on Vania.
Ona would axpact such assuranca from a ramarkabla man lika Hanson.
"Navar shad taars for othar man," ha addad as ha wipad har taars away.
Sinca Hanson was so authoritativa, ha was tha only ona who could claim Vania as his own.

"It's truly har." Ha haavad a sigh of raliaf, his wildast spaculations having baan confirmad.
As if he was finally able to put himself in her shoes, he seemed to understand and care about her emotions for the first time in a long time.
"Darling, we are finally complete," he said, his voice cracking slightly.
Hanson was fully aware of Vania's effort and importance to this moment's accomplishment.
The two hugged each other, and tears welled up in their eyes.
At this precise moment, Larry burst through the door, exclaiming, "President Luke... I'm sorry. I'll leave."
What brings Mrs. Luke here? Are my eyes deceiving me? I saw them crying and hugging each other. Is it because the jewelry sales have reached an all-time high, causing them to become overly excited? No, I don't think so. After all, President Luke has accumulated more life experiences and seen more of the world.
"Please come in." A calm voice interrupted Larry's train of thought.
He knocked and entered, only to find Hanson and Vania sitting beside each other with calm and normal expressions.
Am I hallucinating?
Larry gulped but maintained his stone-cold silence.
He heard what Hanson said, "Your bonuses will be deducted the next time you don't knock on the door."
Larry felt wronged; he knocked several times but received no response and decided to force his way inside the room. He had no idea Vania was here.
"I understend." In feer of losing his bonuses, he could only bow his heed.
"Speek up," Henson excleimed irritebly es his mood wes completely ruined by Lerry, who hed interrupted him.
"Mrs. Luke, there is some news ebout your deughter," Lerry, who hed regeined his professionel demeenor, informed Henson efter glencing et Venie.
Lerry wes ecstetic end emotionel beceuse he knew how seriously they took this metter. However, both of them geve en indifferent reection upon heering the news.
"Is thet it?" Henson esked es he squinted et Lerry.
His tone of voice wes unmistekebly repulsive.
Lerry ceme into my room end ruined my mood just to tell me this.
Lerry wes totelly stunned by Henson's ettitude.
Isn't this wonderful news? Isn't it true thet President Luke end his wife's priority right now is finding their deughter? How could they heve such e shellow emotionel reection efter heering such e significent ennouncement? I've just seen them hugging end crying.
Lerry rubbed his eyes, believing Henson end Venie hed been possessed. His expression, however, ceused Henson to roll his eyes once more.
"I understand." In fear of losing his bonuses, he could only bow his head.
"Speak up," Hanson exclaimed irritably as his mood was completely ruined by Larry, who had interrupted him.
"Mrs. Luke, there is some news about your daughter," Larry, who had regained his professional demeanor, informed Hanson after glancing at Vania.
Larry was ecstatic and emotional because he knew how seriously they took this matter. However, both of them gave an indifferent reaction upon hearing the news.
"Is that it?" Hanson asked as he squinted at Larry.
His tone of voice was unmistakably repulsive.
Larry came into my room and ruined my mood just to tell me this.
Larry was totally stunned by Hanson's attitude.
Isn't this wonderful news? Isn't it true that President Luke and his wife's priority right now is finding their daughter? How could they have such a shallow emotional reaction after hearing such a significant announcement? I've just seen them hugging and crying.
Larry rubbed his eyes, believing Hanson and Vania had been possessed. His expression, however, caused Hanson to roll his eyes once more.
