Chapter 798 Love What She Loves
After lunch, Jane took out Vivian's sketchbook as usual.
"Vivian, I need to go get medicine from Mr. Berger. You stay here and draw. Your daddy will keepyou company, okay?"
"No problem." Vivian nodded seriously and skillfully opened the sketchbook.
Louis pursed his lips and nodded.
Jane smiled and left the hospital room after seeing this.
As soon as she left, Vivian immediately put down her paintbrushes and turned her head to stare atLouis without blinking.
Louis had been observing Vivian all along, but suddenly being caught off guard by her big eyesstaring at him.
Before he could react, Vivian spoke with a smile, "Daddy, don't worry. I didn't tell Mommy whathappened that day!"
Upon hearing this statement, Louis was stunned again for a moment before quickly regaining hissenses and sitting down next to Vivian's bed after some hesitation.novelbin
After a while of silence passed between them, he pursed his lips before finally asking, "Didn't yourmommy ask you about it?"
"She did. Mommy is very worried about you."
Vivian tilted her head towards Louis; her big eyes were very lively and cute on her small face.
Louis' eyes darkened as he couldn't help but question further, "Then why didn't you tell yourmommy?"
"Daddy, do you not like me?" Her hand holding onto something beside herself unconsciouslytightened; she also unknowingly broke out in sweat on account of nervousness.
Vivian didn't know what she had done wrong or why Louis would be so angry with her that daywhen he left without coming back for such a long time afterwards.
She thought maybe giving him another chance would be good which is why she confessedeverything now.
Louis' eyebrows slightly furrowed together imperceptibly as he denied it in a low voice, "Nope! I likeyou."
"Then why were you...?"
... so fierce and harsh towards me that day? Why did you look at me with disgust?
Although Vivian's words weren't finished, Louis knew exactly what she meant by them.
Looking at Vivian's soft face filled with confusion made him hesitate for a while before reaching outto gently rub her head.
"A very important thing happened with me that day, so I... lost control for a moment."
"Vivian, can you forgive me?"
Vivian tilted her head and looked at Louis. After seeing his sincere eyes, she nodded solemnly. "Ican."
As Vivian's soft voice rang, Louis couldn't help but ask further, "Can you tell me now why you hidethe truth from your mommy?"
Vivian lowered her gaze and answered softly, "Because I like you, Daddy. So I don't want Mommyto hate you. I hope our family of three can always be together."
Louis was slightly stunned and clearly didn't expect the reason behind Vivian's decision to keep it asecret.
His eyes grew deeper as he looked at the innocent and lovely child in front of him. He felt his heartgrowing softer by the minute.
After a while, he reached out and pinched her cheeks.
"Okay, we will always be together as a family. Daddy promises."
He promised that from now on he would treat them well.
He promised that no one would ever bully them again in the future.
It wasn't until this moment that Louis truly understood what Martha meant.
To love someone is to love what they love too.
If Jane loved this child, then he would learn to love her too.
...
When Jane came back later on, she could feel that there was a warmer atmosphere in the hospitalroom than before.
"Do you want to go to kindergarten, Vivian?"
"Can I really go to kindergarten?" Vivian's eyes shone brightly as she looked at Louis with anexcited expression on her face.
Louis nodded gently and said warmly, "Of course you can! I will arrange your enrollment proceduresnow, so after two months you'll be able to start school."
"Do we have to wait for two more months?"
Vivian looked somewhat unwillingly at Louis.
Louis raised an eyebrow patiently explaining, "Going to school is very important for you, so we needtime pick out a school which you like."
"In that case, can I choose my school with you?" said Vivian excitedly looking up at Louis withsmiley face which Jane had never seen before these past few days.
"Yes," replied Louis immediately.
The next moment, Vivian's happy voice echoed through the hospital room, adding a touch of colorto the otherwise sterile and cold environment.
