Summer did not say anything more, and she did not object.
He curled his lips into a faint smile, wrapped his arms around her tiny waist, bent over and pecked her red lips. "Whatever is beautiful, whatever is the best, whatever she likes, I want it in front of her. It makes m e feel happy as a father, and it gives me a sense of accomplishment that I can’t describe."
"So if your daughter wants the stars in the sky, can you pull them down for her?"
"Why not?" He touched her fair, smooth cheek and looked at her intently with tenderness. "If you want it, i f I have it, if I can afford it, why not?"
His heart was filled with love with her and their child. As long as they want it, he would go to great lengths to get it for them.
As long as you want it, as long as I have it, as long as I can afford it, why not?
Summer was deeply moved by such a simple sentence, and her eyes turned a little red. She turned away shyly and pretended to look at Charlotte.
"But when did you become so cheesy?" She could not help turning back to ask him.
As his Adam's apple rolled up and down, Mark ran his long fingers through her hair and said, "Did you have t o ruin it?"
Summer smiled and stood on tiptoe, kissing his lips a s if silently reassuring him.
This gesture was obviously too satisfying for him. His arms closed around her tiny waist and bent over her, giving her a deep kiss.
Meanwhile, Charlotte had quickly filled her shopping basket with pencils, backpack, play-doh; whatever she could reach.
