"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

Neil drove his SUV to a shopping mall and pulled over at a parking space. The mall was beautifully decorated with the festivity's decorations and the radio was playing cheerful songs. After spending a couple of minutes at the mall, anyone would suddenly have the mood to celebrate the upcoming festivity.

The three of them had their dinner at the restaurant and then, walked around the mall to shop around.

They were planning to return to Z Town and wanted to buy a few gifts as well.

After walking around for almost an hour, both Neil's and Edith's hands were filled with shopping bags with Hazel's clothing. Once Neil saw the cute clothing on display, he couldn't help but buy a few more for his niece.

When it comes to buying clothes for Hazel, Neil would be very generous and would not mind spoiling his niece.
