Moira glanced at him from the side. She walked to the bedside and lifted a corner of the soft and fluffy
cover. She bent down and reached out her right hand to grab hold of one of Heidi’s legs and dragged
her out.
Looking at the surprising and alluring hipline and the snow-white, delicate body that appeared before
him, Jacob’s eyes flashed, and he looked away quickly.
Completely unaware that she had exposed herself, Moira sat on the bed. She raised her left hand and
with a smack, slapped it down on Heidi’s butt.
Jacob panicked. “It’s just putting on clothes. Why did you hit my daughter?”
“Do you want to do it?” Moira said with disdain while glancing at him.
The kid got a slap but didn’t feel wronged at all. In fact, she crawled out from the bed, threw herself into
Moira’s arms, and chattered on affectionately. “Hehe, Aunty, why are you here?”
Moira’s eyebrows were a straight line. She scolded Heidi in a fierce but delicate manner, “Hurry up and
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtput on your clothes. Otherwise, I’ll spank you!”
“Okay.”
The kid pouted in response. Her little body straightened up and she walked to Jacob. With a reluctant
but adorable expression, she straightened her small, soft, and fair arms.
Seeing his daughter’s cute appearance, Jacob grinned happily, then took the chance to quickly put on
the kid’s clothes.
That was tough! He couldn’t help but sigh as he carried her down from the bed after dressing her.
Moira reached her hand out to stroke Heidi’s head, then suddenly said, “I’ve decided to leave my job.”
Jacob glanced at her. “Why? Is there someone in the company who’s jealous of you and deliberately
picking on you?”
Moira picked at her brows. A trace of smugness appeared at the corner of her lips. “I’m a natural
beauty. It’s impossible for that gang of flirtatious bimbos to not be jealous of me.”
He wrinkled his brow a little. “Watch your language. My daughter is around. Don’t teach her the wrong
things.”
Heidi raised her head to look at both of them. Her pitch-black pupils moved between both of them
rapidly.
Moira rolled her eyes at Jacob resentfully. She paused then waved her hand. “Anyway, I’m going to
submit my letter of resignation later.”
After a moment’s silence, Jacob said firmly, “If it’s because of me, then there’s completely no need for
you to resign. We have years of friendship. It’s only natural for me to take care of you too.”
“I don’t have any friendship with you!” Moira frowned.
There was a sliver of a faint smile at the corner of Jacob’s mouth. “Really? Who was the one who kept
following me and Naeve around back then? And couldn’t be chased away?”
“I can’t believe you have the nerve to mention that!” Moira glanced at him sharply. “Who was the one
who always lied to me, telling me that Naeve had already gone home? Second Aunt always blamed
me!”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmJacob’s eyes flashed a little. “Did Naeve’s parents know about what happened back then between the
two of us?”
“Hmph, what do you think?” Moira rolled her eyes. “Back then, Second Aunt entrusted me to be on my
guard and look after the two of you. But even with me keeping guard, in the end, this little thing still
came about!”
While she spoke, she used her finger to poke Heidi’s head, whose head was raised as she listened to
the two adults speak.
“Aunty, I’m not a little thing!” The kid reached her hand out to cover her soft white forehead. She pouted
and blurted out, “I’m about to turn six!”
“Yes, I can’t imagine my daughter turning six in a few months…” Jacob looked down at his daughter
with a sad expression.
“If Naeve was still around…” A nostalgic expression slowly appeared on his face.
