27
If this was home, it would mean that I had an adorable daughter who loved me wholeheartedly. At that thought, I couldn't help but smile.
"Got it."
Zane looked away and focused on work again. He said, "I think you haven't unpacked yet."
I got up and said, "I'll do it now."

My bedroom was on the eastmost side of the second floor. The room was big, and it also came with a walk-in closet. It was very well-lit, and it had a large balcony, too.
The windows were open. Sunlight shone onto the bed, making me feel warm and fuzzy inside. I took some time to lie in bed and enjoy the peace
At that moment, I suddenly thought it wasn't too bad if the rest of my life looked like that.
After catching up on rest, I pulled my suitcase into the closet. I opened the wardrobe, wanting to hang my clothes up, but I saw that the wardrobe was filled with clothes. There were dresses and tops, as well as many other clothes in various designs and styles. I was stunned for a long time. Then, I shut my suitcase and hurried downstairs. I saw that Zane was about to leave.
I said, "I think the room Mr. Moore assigned me is occupied."Belongs to NôvelDrama.Org - All rights reserved.
Zane calmly answered, "No, it was prepared for you."
However, I was certain about what I saw. I said, "But the closet was filled with clothes."
"Oh, Willow was excited to hear that you were coming. She made me shop with her to buy clothes for you."
Just then, I suddenly realized that Zane wasn't being polite with what he said in the living room. He had already prepared everything! needed, but he was worried that he may have overlooked things, hence the question.
At the mention of Willow, Zane's expression softened. He said, "She's been looking forward to seeing her mother put on the clothes that she picked out."
"But... They're too expensive."
I may not care about branded wear, but I knew the clothes were luxurious. However, Zane didn't care about the money.
"You can pretend like they're clothes for work."
I wanted to say more, but I eventually stayed silent
Zane continued, "Starting today, you will be the mother of my child. That means we are responsible for your meals, clothes, and housing. Okay?"
Before I could answer, Zane had put on his shoes and continued, "I'll bring Willow out for a meal after picking her up. You should join us after you're done unpacking. Willow would be happy to have you around! I'll send you the address shortly." Then, Zane left
As I stared at the door, the image of Willow's face surfaced in my mind. As she shopped for the clothes, she must've thought of how I would look in each of them. I was touched beyond words.
In the five years I had been Zachary's mother, he had never paid so much attention to me. But Willow, despite not being related to me by blood, cared so much about me even though we've only spent a few days together.
I went upstairs and stored all the clothes that I brought with me in a small drawer at the bottom of the wardrobe. I also took out everything that I needed and placed them on the bedside table.
After unpacking, Zane sent me the address. The restaurant was about 30 minutes away from home. I had intended to depart immediately, but just as I walked out of the bedroom, I suddenly remembered
Willow must've carefully picked out the clothes for me in hopes that I would put them on when I met her. If I refused to wear them, Willow would be disappointed. On the contrary, if I put the outfit on, she would be delighted. She may even stare at me with her twinkling eyes At the thought of that, my heart became all warm and mushy. In the end, I returned to the closet and carefully picked my outfit. Since Willow wore a pink dress today, I picked a silk shirt and a pair of light-coloured trousers to match Willow. I was sure that people Chapter 27
would assume Willow and I were mother and daughter.
As I headed downstairs, I planned to hail a cab. But Richard suddenly said, "Mr. Huxham told me to pick you up."
After arriving at the restaurant, I was about to head to the private room to meet Willow. Just then, an unknown nur
I answered the call and said, "Hello?"
"Hello? May I know if this is Zachary Pelham's parent?"
