Chapter 1159: Chapter 1186

Caiden Ward’s earlier bit of guilt vanished instantly, he turned his head to glance at her, and smiled, "You’re sick, so it’s only right that we take extra care of you, there’s no need to feel bad or apologize."

He just couldn’t bear to see Maeve suffer even the slightest grievance.

Besides—

He was wearing just a shirt when he carried her down, and his shoulders got quite wet.

Rosy Harris was still wearing a trench coat, so her jacket only got a little wet, what’s the big deal?

Caiden Ward didn’t mind, so naturally Rosy Harris had nothing to say, feeling truly unhappy, she couldn’t help but glance at Maeve.

Maeve happened to be looking at her as well.

The two were close enough to touch, and her eyes appeared extremely large, pitch-black and bright, full of innocence.

Rosy Harris took a breath, managed a smile, and lowered her head again.

The car drove out of the hospital.

After a while—

Caiden Ward’s soft voice sounded again, "Uncle Ward, I want to eat KFC."

Caiden Ward turned his head to look, there was a shop right outside on the street.

He thought for a moment, the car changed lanes, and he went over to buy KFC on the opposite street.

He didn’t have an umbrella and was still wearing a shirt, so Rosy Harris quickly put on her trench coat and smiled, "I’ll go, you’re dressed lightly, getting caught in the rain and catching a cold wouldn’t be good."

Caiden Ward didn’t argue, nodded in agreement.

Rosy Harris got out to buy KFC.

Caiden Ward parked the car on the roadside, and through the rear-view mirror, he saw Maeve’s dazed expression, so he reached over and pinched her cheek playfully, "What’s wrong, thinking so hard about chicken legs your soul is gone."

"Is that sister your girlfriend?" Maeve suddenly asked.

Caiden Ward was taken aback, "Uh-huh."

Maeve’s little face immediately fell.

Caiden Ward gently asked her, "What’s wrong? You look upset."

"I don’t like her," Maeve pouted, frowning tightly, "Her hair is so long and black, it looks like the monster you beat up."

"Monster?" Caiden Ward didn’t understand for a moment.

Maeve nodded seriously, "Yeah, remember that time at home, you went to another room at midnight to fight a monster, the monster’s voice was scary, and its hair was long and black, just like hers."

Caiden Ward: "..."

He finally realized what was going on and was momentarily speechless.

Maeve pursed her lips and sighed.

He thought for a bit, then gently laughed, "Don’t like her hair? How about I ask her to change her hairstyle tomorrow?"

This time it was Maeve’s turn to be bewildered.

Indeed.

Rosy Harris and he had already reached the stage of discussing marriage, how could it possibly end just like that?

Their ages were right, and this time with Rosy Harris, they had initially passed Madam Ward’s test, moving towards marriage.

What should be done?

Maeve felt a headache coming.

Coming back to life, or having lived in the future, how could she tell Caiden Ward?

She’s only nine, running a fever, if she confided everything now, Caiden Ward might think she’s dazed from illness, and at worst, he probably didn’t have any feelings for her now.

Or—

Even if he had feelings for her now, it wouldn’t be the kind between a man and a woman.

How could a normal adult man feel romantic love for a little girl, that would be ridiculous.

Unless he’s twisted.

She felt Caiden Ward had romantic feelings for her, but that should have been after she returned from abroad at eighteen, standing gracefully before him, after that, long-lasting longing might transform into love.
