Chapter 675 The Answer
They didn’t say anything more. Daisy just scooted a little closer.
Alaric looked at Anthony. “Come on. Hold him.”
He brought the baby over.

The second Anthony reached for him, the little guy burst into tears and buried himself in Aurora’s arms.
Everyone laughed.
Anthony smiled. He’d just looked away when he noticed a baby crawling at his feet. His voice went soft. “Hey there, little guy. Come see me.”
He scooped the baby up and sat him on his lap, bouncing him gently while glancing at Daisy.
Daisy saw Anthony relax. She leaned her head against his shoulder and played with the baby too.
“You’d better pay attention,” she teased. “Everyone else has one. You’ve got two.”
“Because I’m impressive,” Anthony said.
Daisy’s face went red.
Her mind went straight to the gutter.
Anthony chuckled softly.
Damian and Isabelle watched them and smiled too.
Lucas saw that Anthony was fine and finally relaxed. He looked at Lynn, who was happily eating cake.
“You’d better pay attention too,” Lucas whispered in her ear.
“To what?”
“Having a baby to play with.”

Lynn stared at him like he’d lost his mind.
Having a baby to play with?
“Everyone’s got one,” Lucas said, tilting his chin toward the others. “And Anthony’s got two at once.”
“And that’s my fault? That stuff’s about timing. When it’s meant to happen, it happens. If it’s not, you can try a million times and get nowhere.” Lynn pursed her lips.
Lucas raised an eyebrow. “Did you just say I can’t perform?”
Lynn realized she’d put her foot in her mouth.

“I meant it depends on my schedule too. Otherwise, it doesn’t matter how many times you try.”
Lucas gave her a look that said just you wait.
Lynn scooted away from him.

No one stayed long. The babies needed their rest, and the pregnant women couldn’t stay up late. After cake, everyone trickled out.
Anthony and Daisy walked them downstairs before coming back up.
The second they got inside, Anthony pulled Daisy into his arms and held her tight.
Daisy swallowed hard.
She’d just found out that Lynn had sent that message from her phone.
She would never have said something like that.
Anthony had seen it and rushed straight home.
Lynn had done it on purpose–payback for the perfume incident. Otherwise, Anthony wouldn’t have been in such a hurry, coming through the door already ready to tear his clothes off.
Daisy had wanted to send a message like that for a long time. But she’d never had the nerve.
She was a girl. She thought she should play it cool. And she didn’t know how Anthony really felt.
If he liked her too, then she could say things like that without feeling stupid.
“Is that how you feel?” Anthony asked.
Daisy had already explained that she hadn’t sent the message. Lynn had done it behind her back.
But now he wanted an answer.
Daisy wrapped her arms around his solid back and gave a soft mm–hmm.
Anthony held her tighter.
If Daisy didn’t have feelings for him, he wouldn’t be eating birthday cake this year.
He didn’t mind people celebrating his birthday. It just never happened.
“Mr. Vale.”
Daisy started to say something. Anthony didn’t let her finish. He cupped her face and kissed her.
He held her in the entryway, not ready to let go, his eyes tracing every line of her face.
Daisy felt self–conscious under his gaze. Her eyes landed on the cut on his lip–the one she’d given him.
