"Hello, Harrietta, what a good child. Come, sit down," Allison said with a satisfied nod, handing Harrietta the

children's watch she had prepared. "This is a gift fromfor meeting you." Without a hint of shyness, the little

girl placed her backpack on the sofa, climbed up next to Allison, and then opened her bag. "Thank you, Great-

grandma. | also brought you a gift." As she spoke, she pulled out a small tin box from her backpack. "Here,

Great-grandma, these are cookies | made myself. Try them."

"Oh my, Harrietta, you're so young and already making cookies? Impressive!"

Allison opened the tin, revealing a pile of golden cookies, haphazardly arranged. They were shaped using cookie

cutters-there were little bunnies, cats, circles, and even the number one. She picked one up and took a bite,

nearly damaging her dentures.

"Isn't it delicious?" Harrietta's bright eyes sparkled as she looked at her expectantly.

Those big, round eyes, so full of life and innocence, were impossible to disappoint.

"Mmm, it's very tasty. You're amazing. But | don't really like cookies. Why don't you give them to your Uncle

Zachary?"

"Okay!" Harrietta didn't notice anything amiss. She trotted over to the single-seater sofa, holding the tin box up.

"Uncle Zachary, have scookies."

"Thank you, Hattie."

Zachary took one and tasted it. At once, his expression froze slightly. He glanced at Allison without a word.

Allison was smiling as she chatted with Harrietta, asking about her life in Lofbury. The little girl answered

earnestly.

Though only four years old, Harrietta was articulate and quick-witted. When she spoke, her words were well-

organized and clear, endearing her to everyone.

Allison then asked, "Hattie, did you just bring this backpack with you?"

"Uh-huh." Harrietta nodded. "Grandma said she was worried | wouldn't be able to carry it if she packed too

much."

That's right, you're still little. You shouldn't overexert yourself. But since you didn't bring any clothes, why don't

you let your Uncle Zachary take you shopping for snew ones?" "Aren't you coming, Great-grandma?"

"I'm getting old. | can't walk that much, so I'll stay here

"Okay then."

at it."

"Sure." Zachary stood up

He had already planned on doing just that, even if Allison hadn't mentioned it.

"Hattic, let's go. I'll take you to the mall?

Harrietta slid off the sofa and grabbed Zachary's hand as they walked out.

""Don't forget to cback for lunch, Allison reminded them.

"Got it." Zachary responded.

"Great-grandma, savesmeat! I'll be back for lunch," Harrietta called back.

"Don't worry! There'll definitely be meat for you."

Watching them leave hand in hand, Allison sighed, "What a smart child. It's such a pity. How could her parents

abandon a perfectly healthy child?"

"Maybe it's just fate. It's funny, though-I noticed that Ms. Harrietta and Mr. Zachary have ssimilar features.

At first glance, they look like father and daughter. Maybe it's destiny," the housekeeper mused. Allison thought

back and realized there was indeed a resemblance. "It's true. Maybe it's fate!"

Her face shifted slightly as a thought crossed her mind

She hoped she was just overthinking things.

Zachary took Harrietta to the mall to buy clothes.

The moment they arrived, Harrietta was overjoyed. She ran around excitedly and soon spotted a small train,

each carriage filled with parents and children.

"I want to ride that!" she said, pointing to the train.

The mall had five floors, and they explored them all.

After shopping. Harrietta was so tired she couldn't walk anymore.

Zachary carried the bags in one hand and picked her up with the other.

Harrietta wrapped her arms around his neck, excitedly praising, "Wow, Uncle Zachary, you're amazing! | like you

so much!"

"Because | can carry you with one hand?"

"Uh-huh! Cameron's daddy can carry him with one hand too! | don't have a daddy, but you feel just like a

dad."

Hearing this, Zachary looked at Harrietta, feeling a twinge of sorrow,

Though she seemed carefree, this little girl understood everything.

How could her parents abandon such a lovely child? They didn't deserve to be parents,

For a moment, Zachary considered adopting her.

He only wanted to be with Lenora. They wouldn't have any more children, so adopting Harrietta might be a good

option.

But he couldn't rush into it. He needed to get Lenora back first and discuss it with her.

They returned to the Fuller residence for lunch, and Harrietta was so tired she could barely keep her eyes

open.

Zachary asked gently. "Hattie, I'll take you back to my place. You can sleep in the car for a bit and then rest once

we get there." "Okay"

Zachary took Harrietta to Galaxy Bay

She slept through the car ride but woke up as soon as they arrived and refused to go back to sleep.

When Miranda saw Harrietta, she almost thought Zachary had an illegitimate daughter. Zachary had instructed

her to prepare a guest room.

Harrietta found her room and wandered around the mansion with her hands behind her back like a little explorer.

"What's this?" she asked Miranda, holding up a cat teaser she found somewhere.

Miranda told her, "That's a cat teaser. It's used to play with them."

"A cat teaser? A cat? Where's the cat?"

"The cat is with Mrs... | mean, your Aunt Lenora."

Harrietta beamed. "Tomorrow, I'm going to see Aunt Lenora and play with the cat!"

Zachary had considered notifying Lenora in advance, but then he remembered how far she'd go to avoid

him.

She might even refuse to see Harrietta out of sheer coldness.

So, he decided not to.

The next morning, after breakfast, Zachary took Harrietta to the residential complex where Lenora lived.

At this hour, Sophia was probably already at work, so Lenora was likely halone. "Your Aunt Lenora lives

here." Zachary pointed to the building. "I will call her now." "Uh-huh." Harrietta nodded eagerly, looking forward

to seeing Lenora and the cat.

Zachary dialed Lenora's number

The phone rang for almost ten seconds, about to go to voicemail, when Lenora finally answered with a cool tone.

"What's the matter?"

Zachary glanced at Harrietta, his voice submissive. "Tr downstairs at your place. Can you cdown for a

moment?"

"What can't you say over the phone?" Lenora responded coldly.

Her tone pierced Zachary's heart. He was about to explain when Harrietta took the phone. "Aunt Lenora, it's me!

| miss you so much. Can you cdown and see me?"

Lenora froze for a couple of seconds at the sound of the sweet, childlike voice. A picture of Harrietta popped into

her mind. "Hattic?"

It was unmistakably her-the adorable little girl.

She actually cto Jacaster?

"Aunt Lenora, it's me! I'm downstairs at your place! Aunt Lenora, | want to play with you. Please cdown and

takeup... The little girl whined adorably into the phone. Lenora felt her heart soften as she stood up and

walked to the door. "I'm coming down right now. When did you get to Jacaster?"

Harrietta wasn't Zachary

Even if Zachary wasn't involved, she was still Harrietta's aunt.

"Yesterday."

"Where are you? I'm downstairs."

"At the gate!"

About two minutes later, Lenora emerged from the building.

When Harrietta saw her, she immediately dashed over, wrapping her arms around Lenora's leg. "Aunt Lenora!"
