My extraordinary wife novel (Ashlyn and Lucas) novel Chapter 1246

Chapter 1246 Who Are You

Liam's heart almost leaped out of his throat.

“It's too dangerous! Hurry up and —” He was about to rush over to stop it, but Yuri grabbed his arm. There was determination in the woman's eyes. “If you want the child to grow, you must learn to let go. I know you are worried about her and think it's dangerous. But... all of this is to lay the foundation for her to stand tall and live in this world when she grows up.”

Her eyes were slightly red. “The president told us we shouldn't be elders who always protect them, but teachers who allow them to grow independently. Teach them to fly and strive. The president has provided such favorable conditions, so we have no reason to back down in fear.”

Liam's face faltered slightly, and his dark eyes trembled. “But...”

It hurt so badly as if his heart was being cut by a knife.

What kind of hardships and hurts must one have endured in the past to transform a delicate girl into this state?

Suddenly, he reached out and pulled Yuri into such a tight embrace that she could hardly breathe.

“I'm sorry. It's my fault. I came too late.”

That's why both of you suffer so much and endure so much harm...

I should have looked into it more at the time. I should have assigned someone to stay by your side to truly understand the kind of life you were leading.

Instead of being heartbroken the moment I found out you were married.

Yuri's face was firmly pressed against the man's chest, where she could clearly hear his strong heartbeat. Unable to control herself, her cheeks began to blush. “You... Let me go.”

We were chatting and looking at Ranae...

Why is he suddenly holding me so tightly?

Sensing her discomfort, Liam immediately let go of her. His voice was husky as he spoke, “Don't worry. As long as I'm here, no one can hurt you.”

Yuri bit her lip. “I can become stronger and protect the child.”

Liam's eyes were deep and filled with concern. “You can take a break once in a while. There's no need to tire yourself out like this.”

Just then, the children were dismissed from class.

Renae gracefully dismounted from the horse. Recently, she had been living at the association for a while, and her physical condition had significantly improved in many aspects.

Her little face was radiant, and her eyes were sparkling. Upon spotting Yuri, she ran toward her mother.

“Mommy! You're back?”

Yuri nodded. “How's your study going?”

“I particularly enjoy horse riding. The sound of the wind rushing past is incredibly pleasing,” Renae said as she beamed with joy. “I have a shooting lesson tonight, so I need to hurry up and eat. I'm determined to hit the tenth ring today!”

“Hitting the tenth ring is no easy feat.” Liam's usually cold eyes were filled with warmth as he looked at the little girl in front of him. The girl was very pretty. Her eyes looked like Yuri's while her nose and mouth resembled his own.

This is my bloodline. My daughter. This feeling... It's incredibly indescribable.

A child who carries on my lineage.

A slight sting tingled at the tip of his nose. He slowly crouched down to meet the little girl's gaze at eye level.

“Do you know who I am?”

Only then did Renae notice a very handsome man was also present. She blinked her black, round eyes and said, “What a handsome mister.”

But perhaps due to the deep wounds she had suffered in the Guzman family before, there was a clear sense of caution in her eyes.

Seeing that, a pang of pain surged in Liam's heart again.

His eyes, filled with a gentle pain, gazed deeply at Renae in front of him. “It's not mister.”

“Then who are you?” Renae asked, her pretty brows furrowed in confusion.

Liam lifted his warm, large hand and intended to gently pat the child's small head. However, the little one tilted her head to the side and skillfully avoided his touch.

She did not like to get too close to people. Renae only enjoyed being with her mother.

“Renae, can you read?” Liam took out the paternity test and flipped to the last page before pointing at the results. “Can you read this?”

Renae blinked her eyes and turned her gaze toward the line of text.
