Kaylee remembered Gwen being the same age as her and under Roxy by a year. That means the age gap between Gwen and Robert is… fifteen years!?
"Robert… isn''t she… too young for you? I mean… I never thought she would like an old man like you."
"Really. Are you my cousin? Why do you keep telling me I''m old?"
Kaylee chuckled lightly. "Nevertheless, I''m happy for you guys. I wish you happiness."
Robert sighed in hopelessness when he heard that, making Kaylee confused. Why did she feel that her cousin look devasted?
"It didn''t go well." Robert knew Wendy would never be able to take his hand as long as the girl''s father was Hades. "Anyway, I need to go back now."
"Now? So soon?"
Robert could detect Kaylee''s disappointed voice and the sad look in her eyes. He could understand the girl''s feelings.
Kaylee has indeed adapted to living independently without any family members by her side. Now that her cousin hade to see her and was willing to listen to her exnation, of course, she would feel lost.
"How about you? After meeting me, will youe back with us?"
"I…" Kaylee couldn''t answer.
"It doesn''t have to be now. But if you want toe back, call me whenever you want. I will help you. You know I''ve always got your back, don''t you?"
Kaylee smiled widely when she heard that her cousin still supported her. "I know. Thanks."
Robert reached into his wallet in his pocket and took out a photo taken about four years ago.
"Here."
Kaylee received the photo, and her eyes instantly filled with tears when she saw it. There she saw her father and mother standing hugging Roxy in the midst of them.
Her father''s hair had turned gray, and the tense and stern face she used to see so often became softer and gentler as if the man had never entered the realm of violence.
Her mother''s face looked much happier as if there was no burden or pressure in facing the hidden dangers that often lurked them.
As for Roxy… her sister didn''t look like she used to. Her sister seemed like a kind and obedient daughter… just like her.
Why did Roxy lose her memory? Why did her sister think she was Kaylee and believe she was the only child?
"Right now, they do look happy, but when your sister is not at home, your mother cries because she misses you both. And your father… he mostly drank in the middle of the night or kept himself busy in his office."
"Miss both of us? What do you mean?"
"Kaylee, right now, your sister is not your real sister. It felt like she yed another role and did everything she had never done before. She mimicked you and did all the things and habits you do. Do you think a mother wouldn''t feel dejected if her daughter acted like someone else? Come back home. I''m sure they''ll be thrilled to wee you."
Kaylee didn''t answer and looked sadly at a small photo.
"Who knows, maybe Roxy''s memory wille back as soon as she meets you. But, there''s no need to rush. When you''re ready, call me." Robert stroked the top of Kaylee''s head gently, then headed off to catch thest ne of the day.
Kaylee stuck a photo of her family that she missed so much in her chest. She wanted to imprint the faces of the three into her heart, and she decided she woulde back.
But before that... she wanted to talk to her sister.
Kaylee got to her feet and walked briskly to her office without heeding the puzzled stares of her friends. Then she opened herptop and searched for information about the famous pianist Roe.
There were thousands of photos of the NYA orchestra, but only a few photos of the orchestra group captured Roe''s figure.
She had heard Roe was so mysterious because she didn''t like being photographed or being interviewed, so no one knew what Roe''s face looked like or her voice.
Wasn''t this Roe''s character somewhat simr to hers when she was young? Is Roxy really acting like her?
After searching and searching, she finally found a mail address to contact Roe. Without further ado, Kaylee immediately opened her email and started greeting her sister as one of her fans.
After all… she had indeed been her sister''s number one fan in this world since childhood. Her sister was her role model and her idol.
On the other hand, Roxanne in question sat casually next to Den while leaning her head on the man''s shoulder.
Den put his arm around Roxanne''s shoulder while feeding the girl a piece of fruit while Roxanne looked at the schedule in her smart note.
"Den, there will be an evaluation of the best orchestra next year. What song will RSH y?"
"Lost in The Woods Symphony by ck Moon."
Roxanne broke free from Den''s embrace and straightened herself while giving Den a disbelieving look.
"You''re telling me just like that?"
"I just answered your question." he fed her the fruit once more while adoring the cute frowning look of his wife.
"Are you not afraid that NYA willpete with you?"
Den chuckled in amusement, "I won''t participate, and I don''t care if RSH will lose or not."
"Ha? But ck Moon is you. Why don''t youe to participate? Wouldn''t the victory of your orchestra be certain if you joined in?"
Den smiled while feeding a piece of melon into his wife''s mouth.
"I''d rather support you and watch you y the piano in the audience spot."
Roxanne rolled her eyeszily, but she shed a smile at her lover.
Den is very good at uplifting her mood, and he always says sweet words that are remarkably pleasing to the heart.
"But, if you tell me like this, won''t you betray your orchestral group? Aren''t you worried I''ll tell my conductor the song you''re going to y?"
Den pinched Roxy''s cheek yfully and brought his face closer to kiss the girl. "Then I will seal your lips." his remark inviting a wide grin on her face, and they engaged in an intense and passionate kiss.
Not long after, they heard a ringing tone from nearby. As usual, Den ignored the voice and continued to attack his lover''s lips with great vigor.
Roxanne couldn''t even bear the weight of the man''s body, so she let herself lie down on the long andfortable coach. Den didn''t let his little wife support his weight and supported himself with his elbows on either side of Roxanne''s head.
Den inserted his tongue to seek his lover''s sweet one, and his sensual dance inside her mouth made her feel dizzy. It wasn''t their first kiss, but it always tasted like her first kiss every time Den kissed her.
It was alluring as if it wanted to lure her more into his hidden trap, and it became her addiction.
How could this man be extremely good at kissing? Didn''t he say she was his first girl?
Den only pulled away when he sensed both of them running out of oxygen. He wanted to im her lips once more, but Roxanne held the man''s shoulder.
"Den, am I really your first?"
"You are."
"But… how do you be so good at kissing?"
Den smirked at her question. "It''s because you''re too irresistible." without letting his wife react, Den again attacked her already swollen cherry lips.
They were making out with full passion and eager to explore each other''s mouths. But that damn relentless ringing tone bothers them again.
Why do they feel dejavu?
Oh, right. Didn''t Nick keep calling Roxy while they were making out in the cottage room? But this time, it was Den''s phone that was ringing non-stop.
Roxanne hit Den''s shoulder several times, making the man pull away. "Take your call first."
"Not important." Den lowered his face again to kiss her lips, but Roxanne turned to the side so that his lipsnded on her smooth cheek.
Den took this opportunity to shower her face with his feather-like kisses and bit her earlobe, inflicting an erotic moan from the girl.
"Deck, what if it''s urgent?" Roxanne tried to avoid his endless pecks in vain.
"It can wait."
Seriously, this guy! Roxanne couldn''t imagine if she started living with this person, let alone marrying this insatiable man.
She might be locked up in the house all day and note out of his room!
This shameless cunning man managed to persuade her to stay in this house in the name of the cold weather.
It''s true. It''s freezing outside as the winter season has alreadye, but not cold enough to make people feelzy to leave the house!
Roxy pushed Den''s body aside and freed herself from the man''s grasp with all her might. Luckily, she managed to get Den off her, and Roxanne quickly got to her feet to reach for her husband''s phone that was on the table.
"It''s your sister."
Den sighed in defeat at his sister''s name. Last time it was Nick who bothered them, now his beloved little sister.
Next time he will turn off his phone! Noted Den.
