Chapter 1972
Evan was standing behind Hendrix, panting. The two of them must have rushed back home after getting the news.
After a moment of awkward silence, Hendrix looked down at Aaron's hand, which was holding my arm. He said coldly, "You took Aurelia away a few years ago, and now you want to take my wife? Do you really think I'm that generous?"
Aaron sneered, as though he had heard a funny joke, showing his absolute contempt for him.Belonging © NôvelDram/a.Org.
Hendrix didn't immediately get into a fight with him. Instead, he shifted his gaze to Aurelia, who was in his arms. At once, the hostility in his eyes faded. He called out to her softly, with a hint of uncertainty, "Aurelia?"
Aurelia wasn't shy at all. "Uncle, you're so handsome," she said innocently.
It left everyone speechless.
Was this the right time for that?!
Once again, an awkward silence fell between them.
Aaron's face darkened. "Aurelia, what did I tell you?!" he scolded.
"I remember!" Aurelia recited, "Other than Uncle Aaron, all the good-looking uncles are bad guys!"
"That's right." Aaron nodded with satisfaction. He lifted his chin proudly and said with a serious look on his face, "I'll give you another chance. How should you address this person?"
Aurelia answered loudly, "Bad man!"
"Right. That's my good girl. I'll buy you a new dress later." Aaron was finally satisfied. As he acted intimately with Aurelia, he looked at Hendrix with smugness in his eyes, clearly trying to provoke him.
"What has Aaron been teaching Aurelia? Can Aurelia not interact with any other men except him?" I thought to myself.
Men's strange desire to always come out on top was strange.
However, instead of getting angry, Hendrix had an innocent, loving smile on his face. His voice was. gentle as he asked, "Aurelia, it's daddy. Are you sure you don't want a hug from me?"
Upon hearing that, the expression on Aaron's face changed. He wanted to say something to stop them, but it was too late. "Daddy?" Aurelia understood. She gasped excitedly. "Are you really my daddy?"
"Of course." "No he isn't."
Aaron and Hendrix answered at the same time. The difference was that the former looked like he was about to explode with rage. Hendrix didn't take that matter personally and continued teasing Aurelia. He even stretched his hands out to her. "Call me daddy."
As he spoke, he tried to place his hands under Aurelia's armpits to take her from Aaron's arms.
Aurelia's eyes widened. She watched Hendrix's hands approach her bit by bit. Without realizing it, she leaned over to him.
Aaron looked at Hendrix, and then at Aurelia. He was dumbstruck for a moment before he hastily took a few steps back, avoiding Hendrix's hands. "Keep your filthy hands off of her!"
Hendrix didn't get to touch Aurelia in
the end. His hands were left
dangling in the air. He paused for a while before slowly withdrawing his hands. He had a smile plastered on his face. "It's all right. You've brought my daughter back to me. You've saved me a lot of trouble
Aaron narrowed his eyes, which gleamed with hatred. He took me aside and let go of my arm. He then put Aurelia down and squatted. front of her. "It's been very long since the last time my little princess sang for me, haven't you?"
