Chapter 1377
The smile on her face faded away.
Something crossed her mind and a small frown formed on her face. She walked towards her desk,
opened the drawer, and took out the phone Wayne had given her before. Previously, Wayne was the
only one in her WhatsApp contact list, but now, it included her brother, mom, and her godparents. Her
grandma, Hilaria, and her teacher, Liam, were also added.
Her brother had sent her all the photos and videos he took that day on his way home.
Tears streaming down her face, Ivy picked the best photos and videos and sent them to the contact
labeled as “Handsome Uncle” on her WhatsApp.
She finished sending the photos and videos.
Then, she sent a voice message.
She tried to suppress her crying voice, “Dad, today, my godparents took me, my brother, and Molly
out. I took a lot of beautiful photos and videos…”
She paused for a moment.

“Dad, the museum was so crowded today. I’m too short to see the exhibits in front of the crowd. I
wish you were there to lift me up…”
The voice message was sent.
Ivy stared at the phone screen for a long time.
During this period, she had a lot of self–reflection.
She felt she had been too petty before, and finally reconciled with her dad.
Though she had forgiven him, she didn’t want him to know so easily that she had forgiven him.
She never called him dad.
Now, she didn’t know where he was, or when he could come back. She didn’t know when he could hear her calling
him dad.
She carefully put away her phone.
Ivy turned off the light, climbed onto the small bed, and hugged her teddy bear.
She cried for a while, swallowing her tears, and finally fell asleep,
That night, Ivy had a dream.
She dreamed of huge waves, and her dad diving deep into the sea.
She was very anxious.
She desperately wanted to go there and grab her dad’s hand.
But no matter how hard she tried, she couldn’t call out “Dad“, nor could she get close to him.
When she woke up, her pillow was wet with her tears.
To not worry her mom and make her sadder, she put on the face of a happy kid after getting up.
She obediently had breakfast with her mom, and kissed her many times before letting her go to work.
Then, she went to Liam’s class on time.
“Ivy.”
After class, Liam called Ivy.
Ivy looked at him, “Hmm?”
“Tomorrow is the last lesson, and then I’ll go back home.” said Liam.
Ivy lowered her head, “Can’t you stay at my house forever? Granny Hilaria loves playing chess with you, she’ll be
upset if you leave.”
Another person will be missing from home.

“School’s starting soon.” Liam glanced at her, then was silent for a while, “If you can rank top in your
grade, I’ll come again during the summer break.”
“Really?” Ivy finally straightened up.
“Yeah.” Liam didn’t look up, just lightly responded, and nodded.
“I’ll rank top!” Ivy affirmed confidently.
“Alright.” Liam packed up his stuff, “Let’s go eat.”
Then he left the study.
Liam began to feel a bit troubled.
This was not his original plan.
He clearly said that tomorrow was the last lesson, why did he promise her that if she ranked first,
he’d have to come during the summer vacation?
But…
Liam thought of Ivy’s listless look today.
When his parents had just passed away, he would miss them every night, even crying all night.
