Fabian’s expression seemed momentarily dazed when Jeremy asked him that question.
Was this really the real reason? No. Perhaps not.
He was still a little selfish.
However, this selfishness could not be described with words accurately.
What could be summed up was that he was reluctant for Lillian to leave him.
Regardless, what qualifications did he have to say that he was unwilling?
This little cutie was originally the gem of Jeremy and Madeline, and she had her own home.
When Madeline saw that Fabian was absentminded and silent, she broke the silence.
“Fabian, Jeremy and I both know that you love and care for Lily sincerely. But our family members are very worried, and they’ve also missed her since she’s been taken away by you for so long. I can understand how you feel, and I hope you can understand how we feel as parents too.“
Madeline persuaded. At this moment, she was still siding with Jeremy.
He wanted to take his daughter home, and it was only normal for him to want that.
Although she felt that she might not be able to take care of Lillian wholeheartedly and meticulously, after thinking about it, as a mother, why should she not take care of the little princess herself?
Fabian spoke lightly after listening to Madeline’s words.
“I’ll head back to pack Lily’s things now. By the way, I’ve asked Evan to come out. He knows Lily’s physical condition best. So, you can find out more about it from him.“
After he finished speaking, he glanced at Lillian who was grinning ignorantly. He then felt as if some treasure in his heart had been dug away.
