My Lord, My Billionaire Master novel Chapter 731

- She is not his daughter

In the distance, the bonfire was blazing.

The ancient hotel was quiet.

Alice looked at the moonlight, and before Daniel's answer, she heard Sue's choked voice, "If you don't want to answer, then forget it. When I get back, I'm going home."

"You said that."

Daniel's voice sounded. It made Alice's heart ache upon hearing it.

"That's right, I've always said that. My foster parents treat me as their own daughter, and they've never thought of hiding my identity. When I came out to find my own mother, they didn't object either." Sue said, "Mother wanted to give birth of me even at the very end. Since my adoptive parents have taken care of me for dozens of years, I naturally have to repay them."

Alice frowned when she heard this. From Sue's perspective, what she said was not wrong at all, she knew how to remember her mother's kindness of bearing her and her foster parents's kindness of raising her up. To her, Daniel was the only person who did not owe her any favors.

Alice stood at the door, biting her lips. She really wanted to go in and say something, but she stopped in her tracks.

Other than the words "you said that", Daniel had nothing else to say, and he was silent the entire time.

Seeing that Daniel remained silent, Sue slowly became speechless. She took two steps back and said, "Then that's it, I've finished speaking."

Immediately after, Alice saw Sue running out of the inn while covering her face, crying.

Staring at Sue's back, Alice turned and walked into the inn. She slowly walked up the stairs and after walking a few steps, she sat down on the stairs and looked at Daniel, "Foster father."

Daniel sat there leaning against the wall, dressed in a clean and tidy suit with his eyes lowered.

It was too quiet.

It was so quiet that Alice could hear the voice clearly from his pocket watch.

She followed Daniel's gaze, and she saw some blurry marks.

I love you.

Me too.

When she first saw these words, Alice felt that these words were too simple. Now that she thought about it, it was the most shocking confession.

Because I love you, I'm willing to give up everything for you. I'm not afraid of living, I'm not afraid of dying, I'm not afraid of living in between.

Alice blinked her somewhat sore eyes, then sat on the staircase with her head on Daniel's knees.

Daniel sat there and looked at her. His dry lips slightly moved, and he said hoarsely, "Go and rest, we will really leave tomorrow."

"I'll stay here with you."

Alice said, her tone was stubborn.

"Why are you accompanying me?" Daniel said.

Angelina had left him, Sue would also leave, it was retribution for him.

Alice leaned on his knees and focused on the marks on the stairs, "When I first arrived at William's side, it was as if I fell into hell. Despair, pain, gloominess, unfamiliarity - it was foster father who gave me the first light."

Daniel's body slightly trembled.

"I don't know what a foster father means to others." Alice said in a low voice, "I only know that I cannot do without foster father. Every time William and I argue with each other, I have foster father to comfort me; when William disappears for four years, I have foster father to accompany me; when I come to England to meet the twins and face Cullen Family, my foster father encourages me; in the future, I also need foster father to accompany me. If not, what should I do?"

Daniel looked at her. Alice knew too well what he was thinking, and what he was despairing of. He slowly raised his hand and gently placed it on top of her smooth, long hair. "Alice, you have young master by your side."

"William is my entire world, but in this world, we all need foster father." Alice said, "Without foster father here, what will happen to William? He was so picky that all the furniture had to be set appropriately, he won't wear clothes with even a single wrinkle, and he was too picky with his finances, even if a single decimal point is mismarked and he will explode. If not for foster father, William would probably be able to cause several world wars.

"Heh.¹

Hearing that, Daniel laughed, he could imagine that tragic scene.

Hearing Daniel's laugh, Alice's heart became at ease. She continued to speak while resting her head on his knee, "We really need foster father too much, sometimes I really don't want you to be tired like this and do the job of a butler. But if you're not here, we all became a pile of loose sand."

Alice's meaning was already clear. Daniel looked at her and laughed.

After a long while, Daniel gently patted Alice's back and said hoarsely, "Alice, I know what you mean. Don't worry, as long as you address me as your foster father, I won't abandon you."

Hearing this, Alice, who had been panicking for the past few days, calmed down.

"Thank you, foster father."

Alice said with infinite gratitude.

"I can't let you and young master go. I watched young master grow up, and unless I can raise another butler one day, I won't leave you guys." Daniel said.

"No one can replace you."
