However, Abby pulled a long face and wailed, “I don’t care, Arthur. I like him! I want Lizzy
to marry him!”
Antony felt his heart ache when he saw his sister tearing up. He said, “Arthur, I believe
Abby’s judgments. Besides, I’ve tested him before, and he has a good personality. Well, we shall

that man first to see if he’s worthy enough to be our father.
Although Cody didn’t join their discussion about their new daddy, she could tell that the
three kids had high hopes for him. I hope that Lizzy gets herself a boyfriend who cares about her
this time.

Elizabeth smiled. Self-defense, huh? Arthur really knows a lot of words.
Antony poured a glass of water for her. “Mommy, drink some water. Did anybody take care of you today? I heard from Ms. Elliott that a man visited you today. Is he your boyfriend?”
