Cherry Enters The Grand Manor

His question stunned Joel. "What?"

Pete glanced at a cowering Mia and said sincerely, "She likes dancing very much. Restricting a child's hobbies and interests is not something that a good father does."

Seeing that Joel's expression had tensed up and that he wasn't speaking, Tanya beckoned to Pete and said, "Come on down now."

Pete hopped off the car.

The two of them entered the Andersons' villa hand in hand.

The car door slowly closed as they disappeared at the door. When the car started once more, Joel finally looked at Mia.

He beckoned to Mia, who went over to him docilely at once. She tried to please him and said cautiously, "Mia doesn't like dancing, Daddy…"

Her eyes flickered as she spoke, and there was a bit of panic in them.

Joel's heart ached for some reason. He asked, "Was it your mother who forbade you from learning how to dance, Mia?"
