“Beep–beep–beep…”
The three of them remained still in their original positions, frozen for a second or two.
Tucker’s pupils contracted intensely as he looked at Valerie in disbelief.
On a young and innocent face, it remained so plain.
Light and breezy, it seemed unrelated to oneself, but those eyes began to lose their sparkle again…
As Tucker grew angrier, his heart began to grow colder…
Valerie seemed a bit strange…
He squatted down next to Valerie.
“Valerie! Did you tell your brother the truth? Is your family treating you like this?”
Valerie’s chaotic eyes finally snapped back to reality as Tucker was now earnestly questioning her. His slightly chilled hands gripped Valerie’s shoulders, trembling slightly.
“Thanks… Tucker, it’s not like that. I’ve just been having some conflicts with my Bruce recently, so our relationship has become a bit strained.”
Valerie spoke emphatically.

But what she received in return was Tucker’s face full of complete distrust. Content property of NôvelDra/ma.Org.
At this moment, Valerie chose to remain silent.
Silence is the best explanation.
Tucker’s heart sank with a thud.
“Okay, I understood. Are you going back tomorrow?”
Valerie nodded, otherwise, according to Bruce’s personality, he would really come running and forcibly drag her away.
Tucker nodded heavily.
“Okay, tomorrow I will go back with you.”
“Didn’t you continue recording, Daddy?”
“You were not here anymore, what’s the point of me being alone here?”
Tucker gently patted her little head and went inside with a backpack on his back. The two of them didn’t speak a word in tacit
understanding. After entering, they immediately blended into the crowd and began to share their spoils.
David was alone, holding a slightly warm phone in his hand, reminiscing about the recent phone call. He looked at Bruce’s name in his phone contacts.
He scratched his hair irritably.
“Tsk, bad luck!”
Angry, Bruce changed the name of the phone, but he still went in and continued to command the scene.

This time’s harvest, the ultimate winners were Carlo and Hallie.
The reason was that when Carlo fell down on the mountain, he found a place full of mushrooms, and all these mushrooms were edible.
When should we pluck it if not now?
The two of them had a meal together, and their two backpacks were almost unable to fit everything.
The two of them excitedly high–fived each other, a luxurious dinner! They have arrived!
Tucker and Valerie lightly applauded and then immediately got into the car and went back.
Before getting on the car, Soren approached Tucker and handed him some fast food he had received today.
“Tonight, Selina and I were cooking together, sorry about that.”
Tucker took the fast food from Soren.
“Thank you, Soren.”
After bidding farewell to Soren, the two of them sat silently in the car and returned to their own mud hut.
“Valerie, shall we have some fast food for dinner? Will it be enough to satisfy us?”
Back in the mud hut, Tucker finally saw the instant food in his hand elearly under the dim light, and it didn’t seem like much.
“It’s okay, Daddy. I couldn’t eat too much.”
Valerie shook her head sensibly, she is small now and indeed cannot

eat too much.
“However…”
“Shall we divide it first? If you can’t finish it, Daddy, if you don’t mind, you can take it away to eat.”
It seems like this is the only way, Tucker chuckled and pinched her little cheeks.
With tenderness.
“After eating, I will give you medicine. This time, you need to apply it all, understood?”
“Understood.”
The two of them happily ate this not–so–delicious fast food, still with satisfied faces.
It was late at night, after the two of them had finished washing up, Tucker held medicine in his hand.
Before applying the ointment, he carefully applied it to Valerie, even reinserted his contact lenses, and got ready to go.
The staff stood a little further this time and only captured Tucker’s upper body, without capturing Valerie lying on the bed.
The camera couldn’t see, but it doesn’t mean that these workers couldn’t see.
They held their breath and watched Valerie reveal her heavily scarred
body.
“Hiss!!”

People couldn’t help but gasp in shock.
Some squinted their eyes, afraid to look directly.
Tucker wore contact lenses and saw more clearly.
A cool breath exhaled heavily from his nostrils, hitting Valerie’s belly.
He blinked and adjusted himself, this time, he carefully squeezed out the ointment and applied it on her body, little by little…
“Valerie, did your family know about you being beaten?”
“Hmm? Hmm, I found out when I came back that day.”
Tucker wanted to give himself a brain teaser.
How could it be possible not to know when everyone has been beaten up like this?
“Ah, did you have another sister?”
Quickly change the subject.
Valerie’s body trembled.
Zoe’s little face appeared in her mind.
“Well, I had a younger sister…”
Tucker didn’t notice anything wrong and continued to ask questions.
“It’s great to have a little sister. You are amazing too. Many seven–year- old children can’t cook or make sandwiches, but you are very responsible and independent. You are the most talented and admired child Daddy has ever seen!”
The phone call this evening left Tucker feeling uneasy, and he wanted

to say something to make Valerie happy.
Suddenly praised, Valerie lifted her little head and smiled slightly at Tucker.
Seeing the man in front of her, who treated her even more gently than her own family, her heart faintly felt a tinge of sourness.
“Daddy, do you know what I liked to eat?”
As if possessed by a ghost, she lowered her voice and whispered…
“What do you like to eat? Tell Daddy, Daddy will buy it for you!”
With Valerie, Tucker also whispered to her in a hushed tone.
“I liked to eat strawberry mille–feuille cake!”
Dong!!!
After getting off work, he rested in his own room and watched Jayvion’s live stream. He felt a sharp pain in his heart and lungs, causing numbness throu
He stood barefoot on the floor, regardless of how chilling the coldness on the floor was. However, he let the tears in his eyes drop one by one onto his fe
Watching the live stream, the rarely smiling lady followed Tucker’s warm interaction.
Tucker, with a surprised expression on his face, said that he was very lucky today as he found out what her favorite food was.
He boasted that he would take the lady to buy a bunch of delicious strawberry mille–feuille cakes for her!

“Miss… um… sób, sob.”
Jayvion’s nose turned red as he covered his still teary eyes with his rough hands.
If the lady really liked to eat strawberry mrille–feuille cake.
What kind of mood was she in that day that made her remove the cake Reyna had given her?
The suffocating feeling made the old man’s head spin, and he staggered back to the bedside.
Nose blocked, breathing through the mouth, feeling like unable to breathe into the lungs.
It was suffocating.
