Mark emerged from the house, standing about ten meters away from Olivia. She tottered toward him and wrapped her arms around his long leg.

Mark bent down and scooped her up, placing her on his shoulder.

Edwin jumped up and down with excitement to share what happened.

He handed a tissue to Mark and explained, "Olivia saw a worm."

At the mere mention of the worm, Olivia burst into tears once more and clung to Mark's neck, refusing to let go.

Her tears and runny nose stained Mark's expensive shirt.

Mark didn't mind it at all.

He gently wiped her face and patted her chubby frame.

Meanwhile, Olivia nestled into his embrace.

Edwin's countenance bore a mix of envy and affection, as he cherished his sister and held no resentment.

Zoey approached and gazed at Olivia.

Zoey smiled warmly and remarked, “Olivia is truly attached to her father."

Mark observed the sun and instructed Zoey to take Edwin indoors for breakfast. He then trailed behind them, with Olivia cradled in his arms.

Olivia remained unsettled.

She reclined in her father's embrace, yearning for her milk bottle, but obstinately refusing to get down.

Mark continued to hold her, preparing a bottle of milk.

Eventually, Olivia clutched the feeding bottle and drank while still in Mark's arms. She dozed off eventually, her lips relaxing, allowing the bottle to slip. She'd awaken, resuming her determined effort to drink.

Mark kept coaxing her, reluctant to divert his gaze.

Edwin hadn't eaten much and approached his sister.

Bending down, he remarked, "Olivia is so adorable."
