Wendy has always been good at moving around.

Especially when Gavin suddenly pulled her into his arms, even if she knew that it was just a futile endeavor, she had to struggle a few times to show that she was not willing to give in.

Today, she suddenly went against the norm and obediently nestled in Gavin's arms, burying her face in Gavin's chest and not moving.

Gavin still understands Wendy, and without guessing, he knows that the little girl must have cried.

She could accept Dolly and Conor's divorce, but acceptance didn't mean that this matter didn't affect her.

On the contrary, the incident had affected her no less than his illness.

Innocent and playful, Wendy has more energy than most of her peers and looks youthful and wonderful.

It is also for this reason that she is less able than her peers to accept some of the changes in her life.

When the familiar is changed, it's like the whole world is shaken up for her.

On her own, she couldn't have digested the changes.

Gavin protected Wendy in his arms, stroking her back one by one and comforting her, "Don't cry, no matter what happened today, it will pass."

"It's not the past ..." Wendy shook her head, her voice as weak as a mosquito, "It's that it can never go back."

"Fool." Gavin smiled in a pretense of relaxation and rubbed the back of Wendy's head, "The days are passing by day by day, we can't even prepare for tomorrow in time, so what's the point of going back?"

Wendy heard Gavin say such philosophical words for the first time, raised her head and looked at her with tearful eyes,"Do you really think it doesn't matter that mom and dad got divorced?"

Dolly and Conor's divorce certainly had no effect on Gavin.

But what Wendy asked was for her.

Gavin is only Wendy's husband, not Wendy.

He can't really appreciate Wendy's current mood, and naturally he is not qualified to say for Wendy that this matter doesn't matter.

However, he had some ideas that he wouldn't mind letting Wendy know.

Gavin looked at Wendy in a nice way and asked without answering, "Wendy, what are you upset about?"

Wendy wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes and began to reply to herself, "When I was a child, I saw that my mom and dad never quarreled, so I assumed that they had a good relationship - this idea has grown in my heart for more than twenty years, and I never imagined that my mom and dad would be separated, which is more than me not being their biological daughter shocked me even more ..."

Speaking here, Wendy's voice came to an abrupt end, and tears suddenly slid down, warm and hot, wetting the clothes at her chest.

She covered her face for a moment, suddenly realizing - she didn't even know what she'd said.

Apparently, Gavin also didn't understand Wendy's words and politely reminded, "Wendy, you're missing the point."

Wendy thought for a moment, then remembered that Gavin had just asked what she was upset about.

It doesn't seem to matter if you tell Gavin the answer, does it?

"Well ..." Wendy rubbed her cheeks with the back of her hand and slowly said, "I just feel like the home I grew up in is gone. All along, I thought that no matter where I went, as long as I turned back, the home I grew up in would always be in that place, always open to me, and my mom and dad would always be at home waiting for me. But now, everything has changed ..."

"I said you're stupid, but there's no need for you to be in such a hurry to prove it to me, right?" Gavin shook his head a little, looking at Wendy with a gaze filled with helplessness.

Wendy looked at Gavin in a puzzled manner, "What exactly are you going to say?"

She was already used to being spit on by Gavin and easily wouldn't get excited.

It is not too late to find him when Gavin makes it clear!

Gavin let go of Wendy, pulled her to sit on the sofa aside and looked at her seriously, "Wendy, the next words, I'll only say it once, you not only have to listen to it clearly, but also give me to firmly remember--"

"Wow!" Wendy reflexively made a self-defense posture and looked at Gavin incredulously, "So overbearing?"

"That's right," Gavin admitted unapologetically, "there's no room for negotiation."

"..."

Wendy tragically realized that there was nothing she could do after Gavin said that there was no room for discussion.

In that case, resign yourself to your fate while you still can.

Wendy slumped her shoulders with a look of readiness, "Alright, go ahead."

Gavin looked at Wendy and said verbatim, "Wendy, you've grown up, you don't need to rely on your family of origin anymore, you already have the ability to live alone and support yourself, understand?"

Wendy subconsciously looked at herself-

Yeah, since graduating from high school, she's no longer that little girl who had to rely on her parents.

She is already a grown-up and should have learned to give herself a home a long time ago.

In the end, Gavin was trying to tell her that she should be strong, right?

Wendy looked at Gavin and obediently nodded, "I know."

Gavin frowned and violently knocked Wendy's head, "I haven't finished my words, what do you know?"

"Ah!" Wendy covered her head in pain and got a little angry, the boss glared at Gavin unhappily, "What exactly do you want to say, can you finish your sentence at once?"

Gavin looked at Wendy for a moment and slowly continued, "You're so stupid, and your ability to take care of yourself is stuck in the elementary school stage, there's definitely no way to take care of yourself alone, but ..."

Hearing this, Wendy completely ran out of patience to listen to Gavin.

He wasn't even trying to say anything to her, he was just trying to troll her!

"What do you mean I'm not able to take care of myself alone?" Wendy glared at Gavin in exasperation, "Do you want me to prove it to you?"

"..."

Gavin, who was suddenly interrupted in the middle of his words, expressed his helplessness.

Wendy tilted her head to think, suddenly remembered something, and stared at Gavin with a glance, "No ah, I already don't need to prove it to you ah!"

"..."

Looking at Wendy's changeable appearance, Gavin was suddenly very interested and signaled her to speak on.

Wendy straightened her back and looked at Gavin quite seriously, "After you got sick, I took good care of myself and also took good care of you by the way, is this still considered proving myself?"

"..."

Wendy this logic ... has no problem.

Gavin suddenly felt that he was defeated.

Wendy interpreted Gavin's silence as weakness and slapped her palm on his chest, "Why don't you say anything? Trying to fool me, no way!"

"Wendy," Gavin's tone grew more and more helpless, "Next time when I'm talking, can you not suddenly interrupt me?"

Wendy looked at Gavin, "humph", the boss reluctant look,"you also often interrupt me ah, now is only allowed to state officials set fire to not allow the people to light the lamp?"

"We are not the relationship between the state officials and the people, we are husband and wife." Gavin hugged Wendy's waist from behind, "Wendy, I just want to tell you - don't be afraid, in the future, I'll come to give you a home. No matter how the world and other people change, we will never be separated and our home will always be there, you don't have to be afraid of anything."

Gavin usually hangs around, but when he gets serious, his voice is low and pleasant, and even reveals a very seductive sense of sex.

If you're not careful, you'll fall into his trap.

In the past, when Gavin was close, the first thing Wendy noticed was his handsome and charming.

Only today, she felt warmth first.

The warmth Gavin gave was like the firelight in the cold winter, like the warm sun in the snowy mountains, gently covering her whole body.

Dolly's divorce from Conor had left her briefly confused and at a loss for words.

Now, all that unease and apprehension was gone, replaced by a settled sense of security.

Wendy could be sure that no matter if Dolly and Conor were separated, or if the sky and the earth were in tatters, Gavin would never, ever, ever leave her.

And, they have a home.

Most importantly, their home, never to be dispersed - this was Gavin's promise to her.

Wendy felt like someone had squeezed a lemon into her heart, her whole heart was sour, and this sourness even went straight to her eyes.

She lowered her head, and in the end, she did not control her tears, and the warm liquid dripped down on the back of Gavin's hand, splashing a beautiful flower.

Gavin knew that Wendy was crying and didn't say anything, but just held her tighter.

The little girl is just insecure, that's why she's so bothered about Dolly and Conor's divorce.

But it doesn't matter. He can give her a lot of "security".

Wendy grabbed Gavin's hand, her tears completely lost control, and she softly cried out.

Gavin hugged Wendy, and after a while, realized that she still showed no signs of stopping.

Crying can be addictive?

Gavin wrenched Wendy's body so that she was facing him and raised his hand to help her wipe her tears, "How long do you plan to cry? Do you need me to call mom and Uncle Moore back and let them reconsider?" After saying this, he made a gesture to go get his cell phone.

"Wait!" Wendy pulled Gavin's hand, and with tears still hanging in her eyes she couldn't wait to explain, "It's none of their business, this time it's you who made me cry!"

"Me?" Gavin looked rather surprised and asked in a good-natured manner, "What does it have to do with me?"

"Because ..." Wendy stammered and finally said it, "because of those words you just said!"

Gavin smiled, looked at Wendy with a glowing gaze and asked knowingly, "Touched?"

"..." Wendy was very reluctant to admit it, but finally nodded her head and made a vague "hmm" sound.

At this time, Wendy thought Gavin would continue to coax her.

But in the end, she proved to be naive.

"So easily moved?" Gavin let out a laugh, a kind of contempt hidden in his voice, but his tone was very helpless, "Wendy, you're really stupid!"
