“All I can give you is some milk,” Rosalynn said coldly.
Tears were welling up in Ivy’s eyes, “When will I grow up?”
“You want some booze?” Rosalynn asked.
“No, when I grow up I can do a lot of things, like being the boss at dad’s company, or inheriting the Jared Group, so
mom won’t have to work so hard!” Ivy said, her lips pouting as she gently touched Rosalynn’s cheek, “I don’t want
to see you work yourself to the bone.”
A pang of sadness hit Rosalynn, “But mom doesn’t want you and your brother to grow up too fast, ‘cause once you
grow up, you’ll leave mom.”

Rosalynn chuckled, “You’re getting a bit heavy, mom can barely lift you.”
Ivy immediately slid off Rosalynn, taking her hand, “It’s okay, if you can’t carry me anymore, then don’t. We can still
walk hand in hand.”
“Alright!” Rosalynn nodded. Then, hand in hand, they went upstairs. By the time Rosalynn finished washing up, Ivy

“Sweetie, mom wants to talk about your dad,” Rosalynn started, tears involuntarily falling, her voice choked.
Ivy tilted her head slightly, “Something happened to him, didn’t it?”
Rosalynn nodded, tears rolling down her cheeks, “It’s my fault. I got caught by the bad guys, and your dad got hurt
trying to save me.”
Ivy gently wiped Rosalynn’s tears, “It’s not your fault. A husband should protect his wife, that’s what dad should do.
The bad guys are to blame.”
She paused, as though gathering her courage.
“So, has dad died?” she asked, lifting her arm to cover her eyes, lips tightly pressed, refusing to let herself cry out.
“No!” Rosalynn answered without hesitation, “Right now, your dad is like Uncle Calvin, he fell into the sea and was
swept away to who knows whère, we can’t find him.” “He’s definitely still alive!” Ivy affirmed, lowering her arm,
“Dad and Uncle Calvin both love me, Uncle Calvin came back alive, so will Dad.”

Rosalynn choked, closing her eyes, burying her head in Ivy’s neck.
After a while, she regained her composure. Then, she gently told Ivy, “After school starts, if other kids give you a
hard time because of this…”
“I plan to handle them with what Molly taught me!” Ivy asserted.
Rosalynn smiled wryly, “Baby, using violence isn’t the right way to solve problems, remember what I taught you?”
“What should I do then?” Ivy asked.
Rosalynn gently stroked her cheek, “The more anxious you are, the more you want to use violence, the more
unsolvable the problem becomes. The better way is…”
Rosalynn leaned in close to Ivy’s ear, whispering something.
Ivy listened attentively.
Then she nodded firmly, “I understand, I know what to do!”
Rosalynn gave her a kiss, “My baby is the best!”
“No,” Ivy shook her head, “Cory and Liam are the best!”
