Chapter 105 - I like how you terrorize us (2/2)
I press my palms together and say, ”Thanks for the food.”
My daughter copies my action. ”Thanks for the food.”
Young Hwa also does the same. ”Thanks for the food.”
I look at him. It's been six months. My daughter is going to be two years old in a few days. I am getting worried about this. How long does he plan to pretend to be her father?
He picks up the spoon and feeds her with a smile. ”Little Hae, you are taller than the kids your age. You got my height.”
I sigh.
He's tall. He has broad shoulders, a firm body, and a foxy smile. His dark eyes remind me of the dawn after a long night.
”Daddy, eat.” Little Hae holds her green spoon and takes it toward his mouth. He opens his mouth and eats it like it's the most delicious food in the world. That's baby formula though.
”What about me?” I narrow my eyes on her. ”Forgot that I am also -”
Young Hwa chuckles and shoves the spoon in my mouth. ”Little Hae loves her daddy more than she loves you. Right, Little Hae?”
Both of them laugh together. I look at him darkly. The baby formula tastes weird. ”If she starts loving you more than me, I am going to ban you from coming here.”
”You are prettier when you are jealous.” He pinches my Little Hae's cheek softly. ”Little Hae, ask your mommy to say yes. Then, all of us can stay together at my home.”
Little Hae looks at me expectedly. Before she could open her mouth, I stuff it with food. ”If you say strange things again, I am banning you from seeing your father. It's my last warning.”
I come back to the living room and find him sitting on the couch. There is no television in my house or a radio. I have two phones. I use one to call my family sometimes. The other one is for my trusted minions who are maintaining the company in my place.
”I like how you terrorize us, father and daughter.” He crosses his arms behind his head and relaxes his body. ”I think that Little Hae inherited this cuteness from you.”
”She got everything from me.” I take a seat opposite him. ”Young Hwa, you have pretended to be her father long enough. I think that you should stop coming. Little Hae has grown up a bit. She will be able to understand now.”
She's a kid. After a few months, she will start pre-school. She will be busy enough to forget Young Hwa. It should be done when she is still young.
”I mean it when I said that we can become a whole family.” He watches me seriously with his dark eyes. ”How long are you going to hide here? You don't have to be afraid of Kang Si An. He can't do anything. I can protect you. Little Hae needs a complete family. I will be a lucky man if you and Little Hae become my family.”
It's not surprising that he knows about me. If I can look into his information, such a powerful man can also look into me. I don't know how much he knows about me though. It's likely that he doesn't know about my abilities and my 1000 years old history. Only my family, the timekeepers, and Kang Si An are aware of that.
My involvement with Kang Si An is not exactly a secret. He must have guessed who Little Hae's real father is. I appreciate that Young Hwa didn't report me to him.
I just didn't expect that he would seriously ask us to be with him.
”Young Hwa, I am not the right person for you.”
