"Mommy!" Amy's eyes lit up. She immediately dropped her toy and rushed over to hug her mother.
But when she saw the serious expression on Taylor's face, she hesitated and stared at her, her little head tilting in inquiry.
"Uncle Louis asked me to call him 'Dad.'"
Amy's small but sure voice finally made Taylor calm down. She took a deep breath, squatted down, and took Amy's hand in hers. She patted the back of her hand to comfort her. "Don't call anyone 'Dad' at will anymore, okay?"
Amy felt a little disappointed at losing the chance to call someone her father so suddenly, but she did not want to see her mother get angry, so she simply nodded and promised, "Okay, I won't."
Taylor breathed a sigh of relief. She forced a smile and said, "So, what did you do today?"
Louis, who was completely ignored, had been looking at Taylor. When he could not bear it anymore, he gently diverted Amy's attention. "Amy, I bought you a toy today. I put it in your bedroom. Would you like to go see it?" he said.
As soon as Amy heard that there was a new toy, her interest was aroused. She flashed such a brilliant smile that her big eyes shone like full blue moons. "Yes," she replied.
Louis chuckled. "You go see it now, dear. I will be there soon."
Hearing this, Amy could not sit still. She cheered, squealed, and trotted to the bedroom.
Soon, Louis and Taylor were alone in the big living room. Taylor carefully avoided Louis's intense gaze and whispered, "I should go..."
Before she could finish her words, Louis interrupted her. "I know the truth. You don't have to hide it from me anymore."
Taylor felt her heart skip a beat.
What did Louis know?
Louis looked straight into her eyes, his cold, heavy stare pinning her on the spot. "Amy is my daughter, isn't she?"
Taylor's pretty face turned pale for a moment, and then, she retorted, "How is that even possible? Amy is not your daughter."
Louis looked shrewd. "I already know everything. Are you sure you want to continue hiding the truth from me?"
Taylor forced a smile, trying to ease the tension slowly building up in the room. "I'm not hiding anything from
lowly caressing her pale and tender cheek with his slender fingers. His low and magnetic voice was even more intoxicating than the finest wine.
"I owe you and Amy a lot. I haven't fulfilled my responsibilities as a father for so many years. You've worked so hard to take care of Amy all by yourself. But that's not why I want to be with you. I want to be with you because..."
He smiled and continued, "I love you."
It seemed natural for him to express it so bluntly. His affectionate gaze was still fixed on her.
Taylor's heartbeat started galloping, and her vision slowly blurred.
Did he truly love her?
Did he want to be with her not because he wanted to compensate her, but because he really loved her?
"I've been in love with you all this time, Taylor. There's no one else," Louis whispered.
His fingers gently touched the corners of her eyes. His touch was incredibly gentle.
Taylor looked up at Louis's handsome face. He looked extremely sincere, without any hypocrisy. His eyes were full of her now.
Taylor lowered her eyes and felt the barrier in her heart slowly crumble down.
She had known about his true feelings for her for a long time. However, every time she saw him, she could not help thinking about the miserable life she had had in the past. Louis's existence had always made her unable to face herself.
A teardrop escaped from the corner of her eye, but she did not even notice it.
