Abby’s voice interrupted Renee’s thoughts.
Curious, she walked to where Abby and Stefan were standing.
At the moment, the father and the daughter were standing under the garden arch where the vanilla plant grew in front of the main
gate.
Sitting on Stefan’s shoulders, Abby pointed at a bird nest with her tiny finger and cheered, “Mommy, look at this. There is a bird
nest here, and there are four babies inside. They are so cute!”
“Um. so your surprise is these birds...”
Renee smiled weakly and looked at Abby with loving eyes.
This dramatic girl was capable enough to make anything petty sound very serious.
But it was because of her character that Abby became Renee’s angel that brought her endless happiness and surprise.
Abby explained to Renee with a very serious face. “This is not an ordinary bird, Mommy. This is a special gift Handsome Daddy
prepared for you!”
“For me?”
Renee turned her eyes to Stefan. Her gaze changed so quickly, as if the warm sun in the spring had suddenly turned into a knife
in the piercing cold winter.
There was not much expression on Stefan’s face when he said nonchalantly with his thin lips, “That’s right. They belong to you
now. You should take care of them until their wings are strong enough to take flight. When they can fly, you can leave.”
Renee was speechless.
‘Is this man trying to pull a trick? The doctor clearly said that he only needed one week to recuperate, and he’d be back to
normal. Now that he is bringing some birds in to delay my departure, I’m almost certain that he is blackmailing me.’
Renee rolled her sleeves up and gathered all her strength, ready to have a good fight with this cunning man.
“Stefan, you...”
“Mommy!” Abby interrupted Renee innocently and excitedly, “Abby has come up with four names for the four baby birds. This will
be Fluffy, and this is Feathers, that will be Flute, and the tiniest one will be Flamingo. I want to take good care of Fluffy, Feathers,
Flute, and Flamingo with Mommy, Handsome Daddy, and Adie. From now on, they will be our younger siblings and Mommy and
Handsome Daddy’s children.”
The three were speechless.
‘Wow Abby.. you sure are good at getting yourself new family members!’
“Abby, look, it is totally fine that you want to keep pet birds, but you do not necessarily have to take care of them here. After a
week...”
“How strange, Mommy!” Abby interrupted Renee again. She took a deep breath and smiled brightly. “I like it here very much. Did
it rain just now? The air is damp, and it smells fresh and comfortable.”
Renee was reminded of Abby’s asthma and let out another long sigh.
In the whole of Beach City, the only areas with good air quality were where Hunt Villa and Everheart Residence were located.
She still needed some time to rebuild her residence. So, it did not seem to be a bad thing to let Abby stay longer in Hunt Villa.
“In that case, I shall, gratefully, accept your gift.” After deep consideration, Renee said to Stefan as light-heartedly as she could.
Stefan smiled. “So you will take care of them until they can fly?”
“Sure, no problem. I will take care of them until their wings are fully developed!” answered the woman with alacrity.
