I Left My Husband and Daughter Now He’s a Blind Widower Chapter 06

And just like that, I started cooking for Ann every day

I got a high salary and got to spend more time with her

Kael took Ann almost everywhere he went.

When he worked in his office, Ann sat beside him and played.

Then one day, I brought ingredients to the estate and found Kael was unusually gone.

Only Ann and the servants were there.

I thought nothing of it, assuming he’d been called away on urgent business.

But as I fed Ann, she asked me, “What’s a marriage alliance?”

I froze mid–spoon. “A marriage alliance?”

Ann nodded. ‘Daddy’s going to have one.”

For a moment, I was genuinely stunned.

It made sense that Kael would remarry.

He was the right age, had a child, and came from a wealthy family.

I had my own transmigration mission to finish, and I couldn’t be selfish enough to make him mourn me forever

Either way, a marriage alliance seemed only natural.

I thought for a moment and explained to Ann, “It means… Daddy’s going to find a lady, and you’ll all live together”

Ann shook her head, nuzzling my cheek, “I don’t want a lady. I want Scarlett.”

I sighed and was about to say more when a woman’s voice came from the doorway. “Really you don’t want a lady

Ann and I turned around at the same time. A glamorous woman stood in the doorway

She looked me over calmly, then took the bowl and spoon from my hands and smiled ‘Are you Ann’s nanny? We won’t

Ann looked like she was about to throw a tantrum but then she remembered that she shouldn’t be

I watched her cheeks redden with frustration frowned, and stepped in front of Ann Tm her nutritionist Feeding net is

my job. Who are you?

The woman smiled. I’m Elara Hale. I’m Kael’s… fiancée‘

Just as she finished speaking. Kael’s voice came from behind her, sharp with warning “Elara”

She fell silent, then whispered to me. ‘Sorry, we haven’t announced it yet. Please keep it a secret.”

With that, she handed the bowl back to me and stepped away.

Not long after, Mr. and Mrs. Paulson arrived, too.

They sat in the living room nearby, apparently discussing the details of the marriage alliance

I finished feeding Ann, played with her for a while, then prepared to leave.

But as soon as I stood up, Elara returned to the dining room, “I left my bag here.”

I paid no mind and kept gathering my things to leave.

His assistant reminded him awkwardly ‘Mr Paulson, it’s not a servant. It’s your brother’s fiancée

Kael frowned almost imperceptibly and held out his hands to Ann. “Come to Dad”

But Ann, who usually clung to her father, didn’t go to him this time

She shook her head and snuggled even closer to me.

She took a deep breath against my chest and mumbled. ‘Smells nice… like…”

Kael looked at me with an empty expression.

He scoffed inwardly. Nothing could smell better than his wife.

His voice turned firmer, ‘Ann, come here.”

Seeing that, I stood up sensibly and carried Ann over to Kael.

I was about to hand her to him.

The movement forced us to stand very close.

A strand of my hair even brushed against Kael’s face.

When I set Ann in his arms and looked up, I found him frozen stiff, silent for a long moment.

Just as I was starting to wonder what was wrong. I heard Kael speak, his voice hoarse. “Miss Kingsley, what perfume are

you wearing?”

“Why does it smell exactly like my wife’s?”
