After saying goodbye to Eason, Alice and William came back home.
His house is in a rich neighborhood, protecting the privacy of residents very well. A single villa was hidden in the lush trees. It was filled with luxury cars, but their owners didn't show off.
William helped Alice open the door and said with a smile, "Welcome to my home in your hometown, beautiful Alice."
Alice blushed and patted his shoulder, "You a bad boy, are you teasing your sister?"
William chuckled and didn't say anything. They walked into the courtyard. Alice raised her head and stood at the door to see the faintly visible white building. She pointed at the small roof and said, "Is that your neighbor?"
William shrugged and said indifferently, "I don't know. This is the first time I've lived in this room."
Miles brought the two little children home. It was already nine o'clock. He carried the two cute kids wrapped in bath towels on the bed and laid them down. He picked up a book from the bedside and continued to tell the two kids the story of Snow White.
"Dad, why would the Queen give the princess a poisonous apple?" Eric raised his head, he asked.
"Because she is not Snow White's biological mother, she is jealous that Snow White is more beautiful than her." Miles replied patiently.
"Where's the Snow White's mother?" Eason lay in Miles' arms and asked curiously.
Miles' hand was trembling. The warm light shone on his handsome face, and it was pale.
"Her mother died of illness." After a while, he said this.
"You guys go to sleep. Dad is going to take a bath." After saying this, Miles almost fled into the wilderness.
He was afraid that if he stayed there any longer, the two children would accidentally ask where their mother had gone, and he was not ready to answer them.
After taking a shower, Miles went to the two children's room and saw that they were asleep before slowly closing the door and returning to his room.
He pulled the curtains. The moonlight was very good tonight, and he could vaguely see the shadow of the villa opposite him.
After part with Alice, he investigated the background of the two. William was said to be the illegitimate son of a high-ranking figure in the country. His identity was unknown, so he had been raised on an American farm since childhood. However, the wife of the big shot had died of illness in recent years, so he was prepared to bring the child back.
As for Alice, although he claimed to be his sister, the two of them were not related by blood. The exact reason why they were together was unknown. They only knew that they had suddenly appeared in William's life. They referred to each other as siblings.
Actually, he didn't need to investigate to be sure that she was the Alice he was looking for.
The faint moonlight fell on his sharp features, and he stared intently at the house, its tiny appearance reflected in his pupils, as if he wanted to carve it into his heart along with the women in the house.
Alice, regardless of whether she really had amnesia or not, since she appeared in front of him again, she was unable to escape.
The next day, while Alice was still asleep, he suddenly heard someone ring the doorbell.
She thought it was the housekeeper, so she went downstairs wearing slippers. At the corner of the stairs, she came into Miles' sight.
"Uh, what a coincidence." She said in surprise.
In the past, Miles also let her take care of the child, so Alice agreed.
It was just noon when Miles left. Alice thought that there was nothing to do in the afternoon, so she changed clothes and took the two little babies to play in the park.
When the little children saw the amusement rides, they were very happy and it seemed that they would never get exhausted.
Alice sat on a bench in the park and looked at the two kids with a smile. She thought that her son should be about the same age as them.
Almost in the next moment, she shook her head. When did she ever have a son?
Perhaps these two children were too adorable, she comforted herself.
It was almost four o'clock in the afternoon. Mr. Wilson should come to pick him up later. He was a man with two children, but he was still so attentive. If his wife was still alive, she would definitely be very happy.
Thinking of this, her mind suddenly fell into a trance. At one point, the thought of "his wife being unhappy at all" occupied her mind, allowing her to have a rest for a while.
They walked home. Eason suddenly saw a dessert shop on the roadside and he couldn't move.
Alice laughed and bought them a piece of small cake. He told them that they could only eat here and then go back, and they couldn't tell their father.
Because Miles didn't allow them eat too much sweet food.
Alice smiled as he watched the two kids concentrate on eating the cake. She walked over to pay the bill.
