Chapter 11

The faint milky scent of the child in Greg's arm filled his nasal cavity. This was his first time carrying such a small child that could possibly be biologically related to him, and that made him feel at a loss.

After waiting for a long time, Alissa jumped down from Greg's arms with a teary look on her face before she pouted when she didn't feel any reaction from Greg.

"Daddy, do you not like me?"

"N-No. I just…"

This was Greg's first time not knowing what to say in front of a four-year-old. Right then, he felt an invincible force forming a tight grip around his heart, especially when he noticed that Alissa was about to cry. It was an incredible and relentless feeling.

"How did you get here?"

Greg only managed to ask after being quiet for a long time before he bent down with a gentle smile on his face and extended his arms.

Meanwhile, Alissa hesitated for a moment before she ran into his arms again. "I'm hungry, Daddy. Do you have anything that I can eat?"

There was no way that she'd let Greg know she snuck out without Abigail's knowledge, so she quickly changed the topic before rubbing her stomach while putting on a frown.

Nevertheless, Greg felt his heart softening at the sight of that. "Come on, Daddy will buy you something to eat." He carried Alissa and wanted to leave before he was stopped by the taxi driver.

"Mr. Buckley, please pay the taxi fare."

The man's voice was so soft that Greg could barely hear him. However, he got upset by the taxi driver's interruption, and his demeanor turned cold almost instantly.

Immediately, Alissa patted Greg's shoulder and explained, "Daddy, I still haven't paid him the taxi fare, and he's the only person who was kind enough to send me here."

Then, he got his men to pay the taxi driver before carrying Alissa to his
