Lauren looked up at the hand in disbelief.
Sean cleared his throat.
"The stairs here are steep. I'm afraid you'll fall."
Then he shook his hand and gestured for Lauren to hold it.
Lauren's hand was very small and chubby.
Her hand looked very cute in Sean's large and thick palm.
The moment he held Lauren's hand, Sean could feel the warmth coming from Lauren's palm. At that moment, he really felt that the four-and-a-half-year-old girl in front of him was his daughter.
Even though they had not seen each other for four years, it did not change the relationship between them.
It was as if Sean had returned to the day Lauren was born. That day, the nurse placed Lauren, who was still a baby, in his arms.
