Daniel's request to Persephone was quite simple.

"It's a small thing," he said with a smile. "I want to pick you up from school every day from now on."

"Hmm?" Persephone, being mischievous, furrowed her brows.

"Does that mean my dad and mom, Grandpa Zephyr, Grandma Cordelia, Grandpa Nicholas, and Grandma Linda

can't come anymore?" she asked.

"Try to keep them from coming," Daniel said earnestly, making up excuses. "Think about it. Your parents are always

busy with work, and sometimes they might forget to pick you up. Your grandparents, Zephyr and Cordelia, are busy

running a cafe, and your other grandparents..."

Daniel hesitated, scratching his head. "Well, they're all busy too."

"So, you're the only one who's free?"

Daniel blinked and nodded.

"Alright," Persephone agreed. "But I have one condition."

"Oh? What is it?"

"You have to bring me delicious treats every day!" she stated.

With a smile, Daniel extended his pinky finger to seal the deal.

This time, he bought Persephone a new ice cream cone with double vanilla, making it exceptionally sweet.

"This is our agreement, Sephy. You know what to say to your parents and the others, right?"

Daniel immediately regretted his words. How could he expect such a young child to keep this secret?

Surprisingly, Persephone patted her chest confidently. "Granduncle, you can relax! I won't tell them. The

kindergarten has a school bus for pickup and drop-off. I'll tell them I like taking the school bus home from now on!"

Daniel was overjoyed and couldn't help but laugh. He lifted Persephone and twirled her around, being careful not to

ruin her new ice cream cone again.

"You're quite clever. How did you get so sharp?" he remarked.

Persephone glanced at him with a sly smile as if he had just discovered how smart Hamerton kids were.

With his goal achieved, Daniel was in a fantastic mood. As he walked down the street with Persephone, he felt like

the sun was shining even brighter.

Looking at Persephone, he thought of his own child, the one he had insisted Maisie abort, and his mood took a

downturn.

"Granduncle, why are you unhappy again?" Persephone asked, observing him closely. "You've been looking unhappy.

Don't you like Centrolis?"

Daniel forced a smile and shook his head.

"Granduncle, there will be fun things in a couple of days!"

"What kind of things?"

Persephone whispered in his ear, "My Uncle Toph is going to propose to Aunt Arya!"

Later, Daniel learned that the second Hamerton heir was planning a grand proposal for the Bayer heiress.

He had secretly visited the venue, which was romantically designed, and he could tell that Toph had put a lot of

thought into it.

Daniel thought that young people's love was indeed beautiful.

The next day.

Daniel wandered aimlessly along the streets and arrived at the international kindergarten. It was still early for

school pickup, but the security guard recognized him as Ruth's esteemed guest and let him in with great respect.

"Sir, are you here to pick up Ms. Hamerton today? She's in her piano lesson. Would you like to wait for her in the

music room?"

"No need," Daniel replied, trying to calm his rapidly beating heart. "I'd like to wait in the teacher's office. Is that

possible?"

Maisie was currently alone in the spacious office.

The other teachers were in class, and this was her free period. She was working on some handicrafts for the

children—small gifts for her future classes. She was engrossed in her work and didn't notice someone at the door.

Daniel approached slowly, resisting the impulse to embrace her. He saw the mess on her desk, saw her sewing

according to a pattern, and the sunlight streaming in through the window, illuminating her beautiful profile.

He watched her smile again, and his heart trembled.

She had always been skillful, not only in making these handicrafts but also in cooking delicious dishes. She had

thoroughly spoiled his taste. He was a picky eater and could find fault with even the dishes from five-star chefs at

the Hamerton hotels.

Maisie looked at the pattern, then at the item in her hands, and revealed a satisfied smile. She decided to make a

few more and finish them before the end of the school day for her class the next day.

However, she happened to look up in the small mirror on her desk and suddenly saw a figure standing behind her.

"Ah!" She was startled, and the needle in her hand pricked her finger, drawing a drop of blood.
