Morgan Ashworth publicly announced his intention to have another daughter with his wife, Willow, after he and their son attended a speech. Willow, having slept through the commotion, awoke and encountered Celeste Linden and her young daughter, Danielle.

Danielle blinked her big bright eyes, looking at Willow Crawford, and sweetly called out, "Hi, Aunt Willow, you’re so beautiful, just like a fairy in the sky."

Looking at the adorable and sweet-mouthed little Danielle, Willow couldn’t help but kiss her twice, "Danielle is such a good girl."

Celeste Linden took little Danielle into the room to settle her down, and then the three of them went out together to find Morgan Ashworth. It had been a long time since Celeste had seen her younger brother and little Joy.

"Willow, it’s so good that you’re back. You don’t know how much Miles has been suffering these past three years without you. Although Miles doesn’t say it, I know he thinks about you every day."

Willow curled her lips, "He must hate me, Sister Celeste, you don’t know how much he hates me."

"Willow, where there’s no love, where would hatred come from? Three years ago, you suddenly left Miles and Joy. Miles really hated you, and when Joy was little, he couldn’t even have a drop of milk, refusing to eat formula. During that time, you wouldn’t believe how many sleepless nights Miles had, holding Joy all night without getting any rest."

"As Joy grew up, he started looking for his mommy. That motherly love was something Miles couldn’t provide no matter how hard he tried. Watching little Joy show envy when others had their mothers, only Miles knew just how much it hurt inside."

"In these three years, many rumors have surfaced about Miles, but do you know? Those people all resemble you in some way, whether it’s their eyes, nose, or mouth, having a reflection of you. Miles likes to look at them; it’s the only way he can lessen his yearning for you."

"Willow," Celeste Linden grasped Willow’s small hand, "Maybe Miles never told you, but these three years, missing you has made him sick, thinking of you has made him unwell. He never stopped loving you, not for a single second."

Since they met, Morgan Ashworth’s attitude towards her had always been harsh, often speaking coldly and harshly and even doing unpleasant things to retaliate against her.

He had told her more than once that he hated her and had never revealed his true feelings to her.

This was the first time Willow had heard these words, and it felt like something pierced her heart, making it ache and tingle, her delicate little nose slowly turning red, her white-framed eyes glistening with water.

The young and tender love had exhausted Morgan Ashworth’s entire life; he plucked the lofty Willow princess into his palm, cherishing her at the core of his life.

He loved her.

Willow reversed her grip on Celeste Linden’s hand, "Sister Celeste, from now on I’ll treat him well, I’ll love him properly."

Just then, an excited young voice called out, "Mommy~"

Willow turned around and saw the little child and beside him the tall, jade-like figure of Morgan Ashworth, who had just finished his speech and was leading their son back.

He stood behind her, watching her.

"Mommy~"

Morgan Ashworth let go of his son’s little hand, and the child ran happily over to her.

Willow extended her hands to hold the little one, "Joy, you’re back. Did you have fun outside?"

"Not fun at all. Daddy wouldn’t even let me call you." As he spoke, the little one noticed the sculptured little Danielle, his eyes lighting up, "Wow, sister Danielle, did you come here to play with me?"

"Joy brother, my mommy brought me here on a business trip," little Danielle replied in her innocent voice.

At this moment, Morgan walked over, "Sis."

Before he could finish speaking, Willow threw herself forward, already embracing him tightly.

Held in her embrace, Morgan stiffened, feeling her soft body cling to him. He raised his hand to stroke her long hair and gave a helpless smile.
