She said to Alfie Winslow, "I'm not upset. You don't need to defend her. It's normal for her to dislike me. After all, she didn't grow up with me around."
As she spoke, she took in a gentle breath, her face looking drained, which saddened Alfie Winslow when he saw it.
"Hallie... She must be out of her mind, that's why she would behave like this. Hallie is such a sensible child. She doesn't protect and cherish you. It makes me mad... Don't worry, if she doesn't care about you, your dad cares about you. I prepared a gift for you."
Alfie Winslow then pulled Hallie Morgan along with him into the house.
She was led into a room, and upon opening the door, she saw heaps of gift boxes piled up like a small mountain, quite a sight to behold...
"What is..."
"Hallie, I didn't give you presents in the past. Now, I'll make it up to you. These are the gifts I prepared for you from the first year you were born. I will give you all of them."
