“Ah, it’s Daddy Q, and he’se to y with us! Let me go open the door!” Abby’s rosy cheeks were


    the colour of apples as she grinned and rushed towards the door.


    “Daddy Q, you’ve arrived. We missed-” She opened the door while standing on tiptoe, and the smile


    died on her face when she realized the tall and attractive guy standing outside the door wasn’t Mr. Q.


    “Wow, uncle, you’re quite handsome,” she said adoringly. “Are you lost? Who are you searching for?”


    Stefan looked down at Abby standing there adorably. “Excuse me, does Renee live here?” His icy stare


    softened involuntarily.


    “Handsome Uncle, why are you searching for my Mommy?” Abby was naive, and spoke bluntly.


    Stefan’s eyes widened slightly when he heard this. “Your Mommy?”


    “Yes. Renee is my Mommy. She is still working, so you’ll have to wait a bit if you want to meet her!”


    Abby liked Stefan instinctively, and pulled him into the house by grabbing hisrge hand with her small,


    pudgy fingers.


    When she noticed he was carrying a basket of bright red cherry tomatoes, she acted like an adult and


    politely said, “Oh, Handsome Uncle, you didn’t have to bring us a gift! The cherry tomatoes look


    delicious and sweet though, so I’m sure Mommy would like them!”


    He was speechless when he heard this.


    Stefan, who was 6 feet tall, stood still as Abby grasped his hand. He didn’t dare move or speak, and


    just obeyed her instructions, feeling his heart melt at her cuteness.


    When Adie discovered that Abby had brought a stranger into their home, his guard instantly went up.


    “Who are you, and what brings you into our home?”Property belongs to N?vel(D)r/ama.Org.


    He crossed his arms and red at Stefan, his expression serious.


    Stefan stared back at Adie in shock, surprised by the little boy who had the same coldness and


    solemnity as him.


    Adie was like a mini Stefan, while Abby was like a mini Renee. He felt a rush of emotions in his heart.


    “Are you also Renee’s child?” He asked Adie.


    “I’m not going to answer that until Ren gets home.” Adie quickly pulled Abby to him, looking at Stefan


    like he was a monster.


    Abby, meanwhile, put a hand on her brother’s shoulder reassuringly. “Adie, I believe this uncle is a nice


    guy,” she remarked pleasantly. ” You don’t have to be scared of him. He’s most likely Mommy’s friend.


    He even gave us a bunch of delicious tomatoes!”


    She was eating a tomato as she spoke, and the delicious vour of it reinforced her belief that Stefan


    wasn’t a bad guy.


    Adie frowned hopelessly and scolded her, “Abby, didn’t I warn you not to trust strangers? You’ve never


    even met him before, so how do you know he’s not a jerk?”


    “Oh, that’s simple. Bad people are ugly. Their faces will be scarred and they will berge. But this uncle


    is incredibly attractive, even more so than Daddy Liam! How could he possibly be bad? He’s surely a


    nice guy!”


    Stefan was taken aback and said, “Little child, you and your mother are very much alike – you two are


    both shallow.”


    He remembered how Renee fell in love with him because of his looks. Genes were such a curious


    thing!
