chapter 2446
Tonight was supposed to be an unexpectedly rare opportunity, she thought she
would be able to have dinner with Fabian alone and have a kid tag along at
most, but she did not expect that Fabian's friend would also be here. '
His presence seemed to have ruined the vibes, but Julie did not show her
annoyance on her face.
She kept a decent, gentle smile on her face throughout the meal and tried to
look after Lillian to show them her good traits, but she had no chance to do so.
From the time they started eating, Fabian had been taking care of Lillian himself
all the way to the end of the meal. 1
All Lillian had to do was eat like a good girl. Fabian put all the food on her plate,
peeled every prawn for her, and even deboned all the fish for her. He was

When Julie saw all of that, she wished she could do all of that for her. she felt
that a guy who acted like Fabian was incredibly rare. As a kindergarten teacher,
she would sometimes run out of patience for the kids, yet Fabian seemed to be
able to do everything.
After the meal was over, Fabian invited Julie to chat in the living room.
A servant brought in some nicely-cut fruits and dessert. Julie wanted to take this
opportunity to talk to Lillian for a while, but Fabian picked her up and put Lillian
by his side before putting Lillian’s little fruit platter into her small hands.
Fabian looked at Lillian with warmth in his eye. "Here, Lily. Eat more fruits, okay?
They're good for you."
Lillian was a good girl, nodding her little head and obediently eating the fruits as she was told.
"Lily’s such a good girl," Julie smiled and complimented her. "Although Lily doesn't speak, I can tell that she’s a very
understanding girl. She’s a bright and
adorable little girl, which I think is all thanks to your meticulous care for her, Mr. Johnson."
After she said that, Evan teased Fabian before he even had the time to reply.
"I know, right? I think Fab cares more about Lily than her own parents do."
Fabian looked at Evan coldly. "Nonsense."
Evan was used to Fabian’s personality, so he just shrugged and smiled. "Ahem, what I mean is, Eveline and Jeremy
have three children. Three children are a lot to take care of, so it’s great that Lily's staying with you. Besides,
staying with you was also Lily’s choice."
When Fabian heard what Evan said, he could not help but recall the image of the time when Madeline and Jeremy
were about to take Lillian home. At that time, Madeline and Jeremy decided that they were going to take Lillian back
to Glendale, but Lillian walked firmly toward him before they left.
When Fabian thought about that, a sweet smile appeared on his face.
He lifted his hand and gently stroked Lillian's little head before turning his face sideways to look at Julie.

can't speak, she understands everything that’s going on and told me that she likes you very much, Miss Charles."
When Julie heard what he said, she blushed a little from embarrassment.
"You’re too nice, Mr. Johnson. Lily’s my student. It’s my responsibility to take
care of her. It’s only my job, Besides, Lily’s so cute, which is a plus."
When Julie said that, she smiled at Lillian before continuing seriously.
"As for today's matter, I was just explaining the whole thing to the police as it
was."
"Even so, I still want to thank you for everything."
"Oh Mr. Johnson, it’s my pleasure. I—"
"Can one of you guys just accept the compliment?" Evan interrupted them.
When he was about to say something, Julie's phone rang.
"I need to take this call. Please go ahead without me." Julie got up and headed
outside.
Fabian nodded gently and put all his attention back on Lillian.
