The Love that Never Really Dies

“I see. Well, that’s a relief,” replied Devin as he sighed a breath of relief.

He checked his watch and saw that it was almost six o’clock, so he asked, “Do you need to go now? I can take over and care for him if you’d like. You can take the kid home. It’s late, after all.”

“It’s fine. Mr. Hayes has allowed me to live here.”

Devin was momentarily taken aback when he heard how she wasn’t leaving.

He eventually came around and stared at how Sasha was sticking right by Sebastian. That got Devin to grin in exasperation.

That makes sense. He’s her husband, and she has taken so much effort to come to him. Hence, there is no way she’d leave him. I have got to be an idiot to suggest that she head home.

Devin turned around and left.

He had just gotten to the ground floor when he saw a chubby little girl walking over. She climbed a little and tiptoed to reach the elevator’s button. It seemed she wanted to go look for her parents.

Unfortunately, she was too short. She had already tiptoed, but she still couldn’t reach the button.

This tiny little rascal…

Devin happened to be walking out of the elevator and seeing that got him to chuckle.

“Vivi, what are you doing?”

“Huh?” blurted the cute little girl. Her big round eyes looked at the adult who had just exited the elevator.
