Chapter: 1845
Yet, amidst the satisfaction, Keilani couldn't shake the nagging worry about her situation that lingered in the back of her mind. She admitted she was rather hasty for that promise to Kira. At that time, she was driven by her desire to forge a connection with Tyrone through Jennie.
However, as the reality of the situation began to sink in, Keilani realized the gravity of her actions.
If her parents and uncle's family discovered she had a “daughter”, they would definitely interfere. Their involvement could jeopardize her plans and perhaps even lead to making her take Jennie back.
Tyrone said solemnly, “Keilani, I understand as Jennie's biological mother, you're keen to reconnect with her, but you mustn't rush things, especially when it comes to visiting her at the kindergarten too often. It could disrupt her daily life."
"I understand. I won't visit her at the kindergarten anymore. You're not eating much. Is everything okay? Do you not Like the food?"
Tyrone paused and replied, "I already ate before I came here."
After lunch, Jennie pleaded to leave with Tyrone. Jennie cried and cried. Keilani couldn't force Jennie and reluctantly acquiesced, watching Jennie and Tyrone depart together.
Left alone, Keilani had no choice but to return to Royce's house.
"Keilani, you're back." As Keilani walked into the living room, she saw Alice sitting comfortably on the sofa.
Keilani made her way toward Alice and sat beside her. "How is it going? Did you pretend to bump into Lance and grab a meal with him in Centenia?"
Alice's mouth twitched downwards a little, and she answered, "No."
"Why? Why don't you seize such a golden opportunity?"
"He's really tied up with work. I'm worried about getting on his nerves and making him dislike me even more."
“You! Why can't you be more assertive? If you were as cunning as Sabrina, you wouldn't have been in this situation."
Alice forced a smile, brushing off Keilani's comment. “Let's not focus on me right now. How about you? How are things with you?"
A triumphant smile tugged at Keilani's lips. “I had Lunch with Tyrone and Jennie moments earlier. Tyrone mentioned he's not planning to remarry Sabrina anytime soon. And you know what? I bad-mouthed Sabrina, and he didn't argue back."
Despite Jennie's tearful insistence on leaving with Tyrone, the overall experience of how the meal went had left Keilani feeling content.
Alice replied, "It looks like things are looking up then. I offer you congratulations in advance for getting Tyrone as soon as possible."
“Thank you for your blessing."
As they were chatting away, the living room door swung open, and Lance entered with a suitcase in tow.
