Chapter 1440
"Mommy has a question for you. Do you like Daisy?" Lily asked Galen gently. She wanted to figure out
how important Daisy was to him.
'I like her!’ The little boy nodded without hesitation.
Then Lily asked, "So, how much do you like her?"
"Hmm...' He didn't know how to describe it and looked a little flustered.
"Let's put it this way. Do you like Daisy more, or do you like Mommy and Daddy more?" She guided
him.
"Mommy and Daddy!" That was a good comparison.
Lily was relieved to hear that. If Galen chose Daisy over her and Alexander, she would have to reflect
on herself.
"Well, Mommy wants to tell you that Daisy will leave us soon."
Hearing this, Galen’s eyes widened. "Why?"
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt"She's a nanny we hired to take care of you. You won't need someone to babysit you when you get
older. She may also leave if she has something she has to do at home. She's just like the other maids
in our house. We just have an employment relationship. That means that they're just at our
house to work. Once they’re done with work, or when they don't want to do it anymore, they leave. Do
you understand?"
Lily wanted to explain things simply, but it seemed like Galen was still confused.
With a frown, he seemed deep in thought as he tried to digest what his mother had said. Just as Lily
continued to think of another way to explain this, he suddenly asked, "Why can't she take care of me all
the time?"
This question surprised her. After all, he could barely say a coherent sentence.
"No one can take care of you forever, baby, including Mommy and Daddy. Now, you're a little man, but
soon, you'll grow into a big man. By then, you'll have to learn to take care of yourself. Of course, we will
take care of you when you're still young!"
Then she pointed to her stomach. "When you grow up, you'll also take care of your younger siblings,
won't you?"
When Galen heard that he would be responsible for caring for his younger siblings, his eyes lit up. "Of
course!"
"Then, if Daisy leaves one day, you can't cry, okay?"
This was Lily's attempt to slowly ease him into Daisy's departure, lest he couldn't cope later.
’Is she not coming back?"
"Hmm...maybe!" Lily replied after thinking about it.
"Oh." Galen pouted and didn't say anything else. It was hard to tell how much he understood, but at
least this would mentally prepare him.
As the two talked, the door was suddenly pushed open, and Daisy stood at the door. When she saw
the mother and daughter, she was startled and smiled. "Madam, you’re awake! Am I late?" i
’Daisy..." Galen jumped down from the bed and ran toward her with open hands.

Daisy bent down to pick him up and said with a smile, "Have you brushed your teeth and washed your
face yet?"
"No," he replied softly.
"Okay. I'll bring you to get washed up," Daisy said as she gently tapped his nose.
"Okay."
Seeing that Daisy was leaving with the child in her arms, Lily suddenly called out to her, "Daisy."
Daisy turned around with a puzzled look on her face. "Yes, madam?"
’From now on, remember to knock whenever you enter any room," Lily said as she stood up. Her face
was calm, looking like she was just giving a casual order.
A look of uneasiness flashed across Daisy's face, and she immediately understood that Lily was talking
about how she had pushed the door in just now. "Yes, madam. My apologies."
"Get Galen into a fresh pair of clothes, and well have breakfast." With that, Lily turned to go back to her
room to get changed. She had a lot of things to do today.
’Yes, madam!" Daisy responded and immediately brought Galen into the bathroom.
In the bathroom, there was a gushing sound of water. She taught him to brush his half-formed teeth
and wipe his face.
