Chapter 5

As soon as they heard that the Count had arrived back home, the maids and servants got right to work. Alicia waited on the second floor stairwell for the door to open.

She'd been a busybody in her previous life, crying her heart out and missing her dead mother. She ran out that day, overjoyed to learn that her father had returned. She needed to see his face as soon as possible to fill the void in her heart.

All she wanted and sought was comfort and consolation, as well as to share her grief over the loss of her mother and his wife. He was the only one who could possibly understand and share her sadness, and she even expected her heartless father to embrace her in his arms...

But that was far from the case.

When she ran out the door, she saw a little girl holding her father's large hands. She had a feeling the child was related to him the moment she saw the child's happy, twinkling eyes.

And she quickly discovered this.

He didn't think twice about confirming it himself.
