Chapter 200- I called you Daddy

Albert had just been lying with her in a tender embrace for a short while when the sharp sound of the doorbell suddenly rang out. He almost jumped out of bed, rushing out in a panic without wasting a second, afraid the noise would wake her up.

"Daddy—"

As soon as the door opened, a small figure ran crying into his arms, clutching his neck tightly and sobbing uncontrollably.

"You and Mommy are both gone... Do you not want Olive anymore? Waaa—"

Albert froze completely at the sound of that crisp, clear "Daddy."

But thinking of the person sleeping in the bedroom, he didn't dare linger on the thought. He quickly placed a finger to his lips, trying his best to soothe the crying child.

"Shh! Shh! Olive, Mommy is still sleeping. Can you stop crying for now, please?"
