Chapter Fifteen: The Flower Named Hope

"Elizabeth, let's water the flowers with Mommy today." The blond woman gently rubbed her daughter's face.

"I don't want to, Mommy, I still want to sleep~" Elizabeth crawled out of bed and rubbed her eyes.

"You little sleepyhead, don't forget that today is your Daddy's birthday. Doesn't the lovely little Elizabeth want to give a gift to Daddy?" The woman picked up Elizabeth and spun her around.

"Giggle~ Elizabeth wants to give Daddy a present too! Elizabeth wants to be Daddy's bride!" Watching the charming and cute Elizabeth, the woman laughed happily.

"Mommy! Mommy! Let's go water the flowers!" Elizabeth tugged at her mother's hand, heading toward the garden.

"Mommy, what flower is this?" Elizabeth curiously looked at the flower in front of her, so brightly red it seemed as if blood would drip from it.

"This is the poisonous rose with thorns—Lafra, Elizabeth, you must be careful." The woman pulled Elizabeth behind her.
