In the cafeteria lobby, the Alvarez family and the others prepared to leave.

Willow had an important experimental problem to discuss with Lea

Lorenzo followed Sydney and Marcus downstairs and waited.

“Sydney, Marcus, Lorenzo greeted them seriously,

The two of them looked at each other and looked at him seriously.

He added, “I like Willow.

Although the two people had already been alerted while they were upstairs, they were still shocked to hear him say it himself.

“Willow is just a child!” Marcus’s face darkened.

Τ

was as if Willow wa

was still

a baby in his arma yesterday. Now, he felt that Willow was going to be kidnapped.

He thought, “Absolutely not.

Lorenzo was stunned. He did not expect Marcus to have such a reaction.

Ever since Lorenzo was young, this was the most severe Marcus had ever been in front of him.

Sydney suddenly saw Willow coming out of the stairs and retreated to hide behind it.

She found it hard to accept as well. After all, Willow was still a child in her eyes.

However, looking at Lorenzo, who was also the child she had doted on since he was young, and thinking about Jocy, her heart softened. She felt that every day of life should be lived to the fullest.

She said calmly, “Lorenzo, are you sure that your feelings for Willow are love instead of friendship or kinship?”

In the past. Lorenzo thought so too. Willow was the little darling of his and the Alvarez family.

However, ever since Joey’s incident, and the recent interactions between Ivan and Willow Alvarez, Lorenzo had completely recognized his feelings.

“Marcus, Sydney He looked at them seriously and was very sure. “I like Willow and want to marry her. However, I will wait until she graduates from university and then officially pursue her. Before that, I will never cross the line. If she likes me too. I hope you two will agree.” He bowed and begged them.

“Well.” Marcus still could not accept it.

Sydney pressed down on his arm to stop him.

Then, she helped Lorenzo up. Her eyes were filled with the love and support of a loving mother. “Lorenzo, you said it yourself. Willow is still young and doesn’t know many things. You have to take good care of her

He nodded in assurance.

“In the future, if the two of you were married, you would be our son–in–law She looked forward to it, her eyes filled with love and hot tears. “If the two of you are not fated, you will always be my good child.”

Lorenzo looked as her. His cold eyes were red and filled with tears.

He was born into an incomplete family, but he was lucky to have Sydney.

He und. “Thank you, Sydney. I’ll go back first.”

“Okay, drive safe!

After watching Lorenzo leave, the couple waited at the door for a while before Willow walked out from behind the door. She looked like she had just finished talking about important work and went straight into the car.

However, her face was flushed red. Her actions had already exposed her inner thoughts,

Lorenzo liked her. When she graduated from university, he would marry her. She was overjoyed to hear that

Marcus and Sydney looked at each other and pretended not to notice. They got into the car and drove home. Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive © material.

From upstairs, Ivan watched their car leave and downed the juice in his hand.

Lea watched as he drank the juice as if he was enjoying wine. “Send Grandpa and the others back later.”

Ivan raised his eyebrows and looked at her.

“I’m busy with work.” Seeing that he didn’t believe her at all, she added, “You don’t run a business worth billions of dollars, so you naturally don’t understand

“Don’t cry when you end up dying alone” Ivan smiled evilly.

Lea’s pupils constricted and she smiled coldly. “Do you want to be taught a lesson?”

Ivan felt silent. Before the dinner ended, Lea returned to the dormitory.

Chris and the others knew that she was waiting for someone, so they did not disturb her and continued the dinner with everyone else.

In the dormitory, Lea stood under the floor–to–ceiling window and looked at the fireworks outside. She counted the time in her heart.

After a long time, it was almost midnight. Christmas was almost over.

Her brows knitted tighter and tighter, frustrated and depressed. Her vibrated as a text message arrived.

She hurriedly took her phone from the window and opened it. Her eyes narrowed slightly, and her gaze was sharp.

The message was from Ivan, [What if he doesn’t come? Or rather, he can’t]

She replied: [I’ll bring y

you there to give the esteemed Blake a Christmas gift.]

The current her would definitely not sit still and wait for death. She was prepared. If Alfred did not come, she would go look for Blake.

Ivan immediately replied: [Good night, Lea. I’m already asleep.]

He would not follow her to the residence of the Andrews family to court death.

Lea lowered her hand that was holding the phone. She suddenly sensed something.

She turned around abruptly.

“Bang!” Fireworks bloomed outside the window as if a sky full of sparks had fallen. Everything in front of her was brilliant,

A man in a white shirt stood at the door. The black tie around his neck was tied meticulously. His thin lips were curled into a smile, and his eyes were as bright as stars.

Tears welled up in Lea’s eyes. S

She threw down her phone and ran over to Alfred.

“Fool“” Alfred hugged her tightly and kissed her hair. “I said I’d be here for you during Christmas. So I will keep my promise”
