"Oh? What to do now? I am very fond of my dumpling bun and I refuse to let her get out of my side."
"But Ryzel, we will—"
"And besides, how can I rest assured that you will not bring my little daughter and run away from this city again?"
Nathan raised a brow when he heard what Ryzel had said but he did not try to interfere with their conversation. So that's the main issue here. Ryzel doesn't fully trust Louisa yet. Well, it is understandable considering that she left the city before without telling him anything about her situation or her pregnancy.
Louisa tries to open her mouth to speak but no words come out from it so she closes it again. Ryzel is still not looking at her. Instead, he is focusing on the little girl who keeps on stopping the moving arm of Maneki-Neko with her chubby finger. There are also times when Lulu will copy the doll's movement while tilting her head.
