Early morning.
Inside the villa, the sunlight had woken Victoria who was sleeping soundly. Last night, perhaps it was because she was not familiar with the bed, she still couldn't fall asleep in the early hours of the morning. Instead, she stood on the balcony and greedily admired the night before sleeping.
When she thought of her son, she quickly sat up. She changed into a casual long T-shirt and pushed open the door. The door to her son's room was open, so she quickly entered. Where was her son?
"Huh?!" Where's my son?
Just as she was about to go downstairs, she heard a voice coming from the third floor. She thought that her son must be with Roderick.
She took a big step onto the treadmill, and she suddenly saw her son's small figure running. The man beside her was moving upwards, revealing only his beach pants, and strong upper body. And, his actions at this moment were so swift that others could see his strong arm strength and his perfect back.
Under the dim yellow light, Hailey's face was flushed and she was slightly out of breath. Her upper body was still pressed against the man's firm chest. Her delicate hands instinctively wrapped around his neck while the man's hands were also wrapped tightly around her waist.Emiliano's breath tightened slightly. He had not expected that the idea he had in the car just now would be realized after he got off.It was this little fellow who took the initiative to give him a hug. Somehow, at this moment, he wasn't willing to let her go.The light in her eyes startled her a little. The way the man looked at her was not the look of an elder looking at a junior, but the look of a man looking at a woman.However, Hailey released his neck out of shyness, retreating over and over again, "I'm sorry, Uncle Hamilton. Did I scare you?"Emiliano still let go of her, his lips curving into a smile, "Pay attention to the steps from now on, do you feel any pain from your feet?""No, I was just shocked."
Hailey's burned hand was still in Emilianos hand. By the time she reacted, her pretty face had already turned red. She secretly looked at her father and Auntie Juniper, thinking that they didn't misunderstand anything!Seeing that her fingers were not red, Emiliano retracted his hand. Feeling the silence of the couple across from him, he lightly coughed, saying to Hailey, "Be careful.""Yes! I'm fine now!” Hailey smiled."Mr. Hamilton, I heard from Hailey that it was all thanks to you taking care of her when she returned home this time. I'm really grateful to you." Giovanni said gratefully."My family and Hailey's parents are lifelong friends. It's only right that I take care of her." Emiliano replied politely.Juniper was looking at the young man opposite her with a smile. However, from Hailey's reaction, she felt that she still did not know that the man beside her was interested in her!Following that, Giovanni had a very strong interest in medicine. He asked a lot of advice from Em
Giovanni stepped forward and pulled his wife in front of Hailey. He found it hard to hide his excitement as he said, "Juniper, let me introduce her."Juniper looked at her husband and then at the young girl in front of her. She had lived with her husband for so many years, so she could tell that the girl in front of her had eyes that were similar to her husband's.However, she still didn't know what the relationship between this girl and her husband was.While Giovanni was thinking about how to introduce his daughter."Hello, Auntie. My name is Hailey." Hailey politely said, afraid that her existence would cause trouble for her father.Juniper was slightly surprised, "You are called Hailey?""Yes, Juniper, you won't believe that my missing daughter has reappeared in my sight." Giovanni was so excited that his eyes turned red, and once again, his emotions surged.Juniper stared at Hailey in shock, not daring to believe it either."Auntie, don't worry. I'm only returning to my hometown

Hamilton's Proposal of Marriage——Tears streamed down Giovanni's face, and his eyes reddened. He looked at Hailey with a choked voice. He was certain that this was his daughter.He hadn't thought that the child lost back then was still alive. This was practically a gift from heaven."Hailey, how are you doing abroad?" Giovanni asked excitedly."I've been doing very well, and my parents abroad love me very much." Hailey nodded with reddened eyes.
