Chapter 573
Daniel was nestled in Brittany’s arms, thinking, “I must look a lot like my mom. She did give birth to me after all!”
“Really?” Brittany couldn’t tell.
William thought their intimacy was a bit off the charts, probably due to fate. “You do look a bit like her.”
Brittany lifted Daniel, giving him a good once-over, “Maybe you do look a bit like me. No wonder I like you so
much.”
“And mom is my favorite too.”
Daniel showered Brittany with a bunch of slobbery kisses, leaving her face all wet, but she didn’t mind having a
blast with Daniel.
William, shaking his head with a smile, asked, “Has Daniel’s father been in touch?”
Daniel perked up at this.
Before Brittany could respond, Daniel said, “Dad is really busy with work. He doesn’t have much time for me.”
Brittany pinched Daniel’s cheek. It was all squishy, “I’ve met his father before. I guess he’s too busy to take care of
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtDaniel.”
She was worried that William wouldn’t like Daniel, and Hannah Chester’s words still echoed in her ears, “I’ll talk to
his father after this busy period.”
William knew what Brittany was thinking, “I really like Daniel. If his father agreed, we can consider him our godson,
we can meet up often.”
He loved kids, and Daniel was a good kid. Plus Brittany liked him a lot, of course, he was more than happy to.
Brittany hadn’t thought about this before, but hearing this, she started to consider it seriously.
Hearing the William’s proposal, Daniel’s eyes grew even more significant. He didn’t want to be a godson. He wanted
to be Mommy’s treasure!
“Mom, I don’t want to be a godson.” Daniel said, “I want to be mommy’s treasure.”
Brittany was tickled pink by this, about to say something.
The nanny stepped out of the kitchen, seeing the heavy rain outside. She was a bit worried, “With this heavy rain,
there might be traffic on the way home.”
“Well then, don’t go home.” Brittany got up with Daniel, “We have spare rooms at home. I wanted you to stay
before, but you refused. With the rain tonight, just stay.”
The nanny pondered for a few seconds, then agreed.
Brittany turned to William, “You shouldn’t go home either tonight. Just stay.”
The rain was pouring, and the driver had left.
She couldn’t bear the thought of sending William home alone.
William nodded in agreement, and everyone sat down for dinner. Brittany didn’t stand on ceremony, and the nanny
joined them for the meal.
They chatted while eating.
Daniel was a little charmer, making everyone smile. He got a whole bunch of kisses and cuddles from Brittany,
feeling as relaxed as if he was floating in a lake.
After a satisfying meal, the nanny took Daniel to wash up.
The guest rooms were almost ready. Only the bedding needed to be laid out.
Brittany found a new set of bedding and said to William, “Help me make the bed.”
William-put down his phone and followed her into the room.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThe guest room was close to Brittany’s, only separated by a wall.
The guest room was very spacious, with a two-meter bed, a row of wardrobes next to it, and a book wall on the
opposite side. The window led to the balcony outside, and if it weren’t for the rain, there would be moonlight shining
on the floor, weaving a net that belonged only to the night.
William was a whiz at housekeeping, and he made the bed with practiced ease.
Brittany helped make the bed, and once done, they left the room one after the other.
However, the nanny had just mopped the floor, and it was a bit slippery. Brittany almost slipped.
William reacted quickly, catching Brittany in his arms.

The wind outside was howling, the window rattling in response.
William’s fingers felt somewhat hot.
Brittany leaned against his chest. Even through the clothing, she could feel William’s steady heartbeat.
Each beat seemed to be pounding against her heart.
Brittany had had a bit of wine, and her lips were as soft as springtime cherry blossoms, irresistible.
William’s throat bobbed. He was feeling impulsive. He lowered his head, his voice a bit raspy, “Bri, can I kiss you?”
Brittany felt a jolt in her heart.
