'Tm not angry with you." Alice squatted there with her arm around Kathy's body. She looked at Holy and said, "Holy, I know you wouldn't do such a thing, but ...forget about it."
She couldn't bear to blame Holy for protecting his sister even he was willing to help her steal things.
Holy looked at her silently, and did not say anything.
"In short, it is best for you to love each other. However, you must distinguish between right and wrong, what should be done, and what should not be done." Alice looked at Holy, "Can you promise me?"
Holy still did not speak, but Kathy hugged Alice's neck and nodded at her little head, "Alright, alright. I'll take care of my little brother in the future."
"Slash."
Alice laughed and tapped her on the nose, "Just don't bully Holy."
Kathy stuck out her tongue, turned tears into smiles, and happily pulled Holy's hand.
"Alright. Let's go out and play."
Holy was pulled out of the room by Kathy. Holy's gaze landed on Alice's body, and then looked at the phone she threw on the bed. His gaze turned a little deeper, and was pulled away by Kathy.
Mona.
Holy memorized the name.
Theten-day’s probation passed.
With the help of Daniel from a distance, although Alice was in a mess, she was still able to complete the task well.
At night, William stood alone on top of the Imperial Castle's building. After working out, he was still wearing his gray sports attire, and his handsome face had beads of sweat on it. He stood by the window and looked outside.
In silent night, the lights on the trees flickered incessantly, forming a unique view in the darkness.
Ten days had passed.
Then?
"William, it's time to eat dinner." Alice came in. She held a cup of water and a towel and walked towards him.
William turned to look at her. She had been acting very obediently, not making any trouble, and silently taking charge of his work. She prepared what he needed at the right time and in advance.
"Here you go."
Alice handed the cup of water to him and raised the towel in her hand to help wipe the sweat off.
A faint fragrance wafted to the tip of his nose.
William lowered his eyes and looked at her, his gaze landing on her soft lips. His throat tightened, and he picked up the cup of water to drink.
"Let's go."
Alice said as she wiped off his sweat. William nodded indifferently and followed her.
Alice could feel that something was wrong with William today, because it had been a long time since she had last seen William lost in thought. He had been distracted since morning and when the secretary reported something to him, he asked her a total of four to five times why. He didn't drink his coffee and he asked her to make a new one.
She could not guess what he was thinking.
After dinner, Alice went to the lounge to watch a children's science show with them as usual. This was a rare show that both children liked to watch.
Kathy looked at the cartoon character while Holy looked at the scientific knowledge. The two of them watched with relish.
Alice sat on the sofa to watch the television. She looked at the two children as she were peeling and cutting an apple into pieces.
"Kathy, sit back. The distance between you and the TV are too close, otherwise, you are not allowed to watch anymore." Alice reminded Kathy.
"Oh."
Kathy moved her butt, and even grabbed Holy to move back.
She looked over and saw William sitting beside her. He was wearing a black bathrobe. His hair was half dry, and he was releasing the fragrance of bathing milk.
"Don't you need to work tonight?"
Alice asked since she felt that something was amiss today.
"Just testing a new product. I don’t need to stay in the office." William said coldly as he opened the tablet computer in his hands.
Alice sat next to him, staring at him deeply. She used her fork to out a small piece of apple to his mouth, "Eat."
Her movements was very natural, and William very naturally opened his mouth to eat it.
"William, you are so nice." Alice said, her face revealing a faint smile.
"Cough."
William was almost choked by the apple as he looked at her with his black eyes, "What nonsense are you spouting?"
"You're willing to come down and accompany us to parentage." Alice smiled and said. She leaned against him on the sofa, her long hair resting on his shoulders. "William, I'm very happy right now."
She had children and William, so she' s satisfied.
"Ew."
William gave a cold snort, filled with disdain.
Alice shrugged and did not care as she leaned on William's shoulder and watched the television. William studied the things there, so he did not push her away.
Kathy climbed up from the carpet, walked to the tea table and ate some apples. Kathy took it and gave it to Alice and William, "Dad, eat some apples."
No one answered her.
"Dad?Dad?‘
