"Grandma, I don't want to live away from my daddy and mommy... I know that I won't get to see them again... What if I miss them?" her words were a bit incoherent as she forced back her sobs.

Seeing the little girl, he felt something tugged on his heart.

"Hazel," Neil spoke after a while. "If you don't want to live in the countryside with grandma, then would you like to live with me?"

A Lifetime With You

Aaron scoffed upon hearing the questions. "Edith and I have known each other for a long time. As a friend, of course, I am worried about her."

Neil picked up the glass on the table and took a sip as he continued to listen to Aaron. As long as Aaron did not come to him as his rival, Neil thought that he would be able to spend his time entertaining his questions.

"Edith might be a rash person. There are times when she would not think much of a consequence when she does something," Aaron said. "Dating you might be the same. Perhaps that girl was not thinking things through when she decided to date you. She did not know what she was going to face afterward when she stayed with you."

"Are you saying that Edith is stupid?" Neil said in a languid tone.

"Not stupid. But naive." Aaron narrowed his eyes. "President Mo, if you are not serious about her, I suggest you leave her side before she gets in too deep."
