Chapter 16^

"BUT SHE'S YOUR DAUGHTER ALSO!"

Steven shrieked strongly, unfortunately, Achiera didn't hear him, her heart was too focused on Hansen and the taxi stopped immediately. Until finally, Achiera left.

"Why Achiera ... why? Why didn't you hear my last word? I'm afraid ... afraid that my Aleeya will be disappointed because I can't bring you to her. I promised to bring you to her. She idolizes you as a designer like her dreams. My poor Aleeya only wants to interact directly with you and can learn about design with you. Can't you spare your time Achiera?"

Steven felt very miserable, behind his eyes crossed Aleeya's hopeful face. What if she finds out, her hopes don't come true? Will the smile disappear?

He even sat on the side of the road, because of the disappointment he faced.

Especially at times like this, Aleeya's cute face was visible in her shadow and a happy expression when she knew that her idol was coming to meet her.

At the hospital))

 Steven arrived at the hospital where Aleeya was being treated.  He immediately went to Aleeya's room.

 "Papa .... Finally Papa came. Aleeya has been waiting for Papa," Aleeya said, spoiled as usual.

 Aleeya was indeed a very spoiled child, but her pampering only applied to Steven as well as Andy, Steven's assistant.  While for other people, she will turn into such a brave child, there was no slightest sense of fear for her to fight if it were against the person who hurt her.

 Steven came closer and kissed his adopted daughter on the forehead.

 "Honey ... are you ready for your final treatment?" Steven asked lovingly.

 Instead of answering, Aleeya's eyes searched the door.

 Steven understood that, he lovingly hugged his daughter.

 "Don't look at the door again, she won't come," Steven said, "Only Papa is yours, forever will be."  Steven tried to cheer Aleeya up.

 "But Papa promised to bring Miss interior designer. Why didn't she come? Did Papa lie?" Aleeya asked.

 "Aleeya, Papa's love. In this world, only Aleeya that Papa will never lie to. Papa and her are almost here, even about to arrive, but suddenly she has something urgent, so she must turn around."

"Is it so urgent that she can't stop by first?" Aleeya asked, her face looked grim.  "I know Papa, I am nobody, of course she does not prioritize meeting me, even if she wants to meet it is already an extraordinary thing for me."

 "Hey baby .... what are you talking about? You are Papa's daughter, treasure and love in Papa's life. You are precious more than anything else in this world. Is Papa's love not enough?" Steven said softly.

 "But, Aleeya really wanted to meet her, Papa. Aleeya wanted to learn to design directly from her." Aleeya, with her indulgent attitude, begged Steven.

 "Fine, Papa understands. Later, when your treatment is successful, we will immediately meet her. Papa will take you straight to her house."

 "To her house? Do you know where her house is?" Aleeya asked excitedly.

 "Yup. Incidentally she's a friend of Papa who met here by accident. So yesterday she invited Papa to her house. She also has one son, his age is the same as you. Very handsome and a little naughty like you, Small tiger!"  Steven explained.

 "I'm not interested in wanting to know her child. I just wanted to meet Miss Achi, and asked her to design my own house. We will design it together," Aleeya said.

 Steven pinched the tip of Aleeya's nose. "You bad girl! Don't be arrogant later when you meet her son. Must be polite, call him brother," Steven said.

 "Why should I call him brother?"

"For being as naughty as you are," Steven joked.

 "Papa ... !!! Ishh, I'm very angry!"  Aleeya was acting angry.

 "He he ... Don't be afraid of anything, Papa will be here with you, don't turn away for even if one second! Do your best for your treatment, Honey."

 Aleeya kissed Steven's cheek with a sweet kiss.

 "Aleeya loves Papa, and will never make Papa disappointed or sad. Aleeya belongs to Papa, the only one!"

 "We will always be together, together forever. Even if there are people who will never leave Aleeya, Papa make sure, Papa is one of them," Steven said, he also kissed the top of his daughter's head.

 "Papa is not one of them, but the only one! The only one who will be mine, for the rest of my life."

 "Dear Aleeya, Papa will only be one of them, not the only one. Because Aleeya deserves a lot of people who love Aleeya," Steven explained.

 "But Papa's love is enough for Aleeya. Aleeya is quite happy because I got so much love for Aleeya."

Things like this that at the very least could make Steven held his feelings of happiness.  Truly, Aleeya's presence in his life was like a special medicine sent by God to get rid of his loneliness all this time.  The presence of Aleeya, made him being a more desirable figure, because he had never had it since a long time ago, to be precise since his mother died and his father remarried.

 "Your words are very sweet. Hempp I became suspicious, surely you want something?"  Steven guessed.

 "Ha ha ... Papa is the best at guessing!"  Aleeya's laughter thundered, escaping her naughty little mouth.
