"Honey..."
Originally, she wanted to tease him, but just as her hand slipped under his collar, the food delivery guy pushed the door open and walked in.
Hearing the noise, Vera jumped in surprise and quickly pulled her hand back.
The delivery guy took it all in, quickly lowering his head.
"Sorry, sorry!"
Vera wished she could find a hole to crawl into in her regret. The delivery guy set down the food and quickly left, while Kris Cooper chuckled softly to the side.
The little girl gritted her teeth and buried herself in her meal, ignoring him.
After dinner, the two of them got in the car and left together.
Kris Cooper was still laughing while driving.
She gave him a disdainful sidelong glance, "Laugh, laugh, laugh—what's so funny!"
Kris Cooper reached over with his right hand and ruffled her little head.
The car continued forward, and Kris Cooper's phone started vibrating.
He took out the phone and put it to his ear, speaking calmly.
"Hello?"
"It's me, Liliana Davis!"
