Boss, Your Wife Signed the Divorce Agreement Before the Wedding novel Chapter 574

Sweet dimples popped on her cheeks.

Sebastian stood there, captivated by the sight.

His mind violently snapped back to a memory from over a decade ago.

There had been another girl back then, gently coaxing him to take his medicine and clean his wounds. And whenever he finally gave in and cooperated, she would press her lips together and smile that exact same secret smile.

Mother and daughter...

They were practically carbon copies of each other.

He walked over.

He sat down in the tiny chair right next to Lily.

He didn't say a word.

Lily paused her building, looking up at him. "Mister, aren't you going on a date with that lady?"

Sebastian looked at this child—the child his wife had given to Ian Hudson.

His voice was impossibly soft. "Do you mind if I sit here?"

Lily looked back down at her blocks. "Since you asked nicely, I don't mind."

Sebastian realized this little girl had quite a bit of character. She was interesting to talk to. Some kids were just born with a strong, independent streak, and it showed from a very young age.

He didn't say anything else.

Lily, however, kept stealing glances at him.

"Mister, are you sad?"

She could sense it.

There was something bitter and heavy hanging over this man.

She just didn't know the words for it.

Instead of answering, Sebastian reached out to help her find the next piece she needed. "You look a lot like your mother. You have the same big eyes, the same dimples... and you definitely have her personality."

Too smart for her own good, and full of complicated thoughts.

Hearing that she looked like her mom filled Lily with pride. She offered him a generous compliment in return. "You have really good taste, Mister."

Her praise actually managed to draw a real laugh from Sebastian.

He stared at her little face, a faint smile tugging at his lips. "You're a sweet talker, too."
