Take My Breath Away

Wesley chased Erica around the living room. She begged, "Dad, please stop chasing me. Please!"

This was a day in the life of Erica—being her father's smelly socks.

A few minutes later when Erica realized that she had nowhere else to go, she opened the gate and ran out of the house.

Wesley ran after her and didn't stop until she was out of sight. He took the feather duster and walked towards the foreigner. When Wesley waved the duster in front of him, the young man immediately raised his hands, gesturing surrender and said, "I'm sorry! I'm very sorry!" Then he disappeared from the Li family's living room as fast as he could.

That evening, Erica sat at the main gate of the Li house, cupping her chin, and lazily shouted, "Dad, let me in! Mom let me in! I'm going to die out here if you don't let me in!"

A moment later, the gate squeaked open and revealed Wesley standing in the doorway.

"Dad!" Erica jumped to her feet and looked at her father expectantly.

What her father said next was just the words she had been hoping to hear. "Come in," he said.

"Really?" A sudden burst of happiness made her feel ecstatic.

"Yes," he confirmed.

She ran towards her father and hugged him tightly. "Dad, I knew you still love me."

Wesley tried his best to suppress his giggle and said, "Just get inside. Your mom's waiting for you in the dining room with pork ribs. Your sister will be back soon."

"Boohoo..." Erica hugged him harder and burst into tears, wailing like a spoiled child. "Dad, even if I'm a pair of stinky socks, I'm your stinky socks. You can't just throw me out."

Wesley sighed and pulled Erica away from him. "Don't be so dramatic. Go inside and have dinner. Then, go straight to bed. I don't want you staying up late!"

"Why not?"

"I'm taking you back to Y City tomorrow!"

Erica's eyebrows shot up in bewilderment and she immediately pleaded, "Dad, no!"

See? She knew she was just a pair of unloved, smelly socks to him!

Erica walked into the dining room and picked up Ethan from the baby chair. She kissed him so many times that the baby's cheeks started showing a tinge of pink. Blair didn't want her daughter disturbing the baby, so she pushed Erica into the bathroom.

Fortunately, Erica had come back at a good time because Yvette was supposed to bring her boyfriend home to talk about the engagement with her

n you still be so attached to your mother? If you need to hug someone, call Matthew and ask him to keep you company. Don't come to my wife!"

Still, Erica managed to squeeze into the room. She held Wesley's arm and pleaded, "Dad, I love you the most. Considering the fact that I married Matthew for you and moved to Y City with him, you should sleep on the couch tonight. Please! You're the greatest dad in the world!"

Wesley squinted his eyes at her and said, "Why don't you sleep on the sofa?"

"Dearest father, do you have the heart to let your sweet daughter sleep on the couch?"

"Of course I do."

Erica pouted her lips and feigned anger. "Dad, if you keep acting like this, I'll get angry with you."

Wesley snorted, "You're getting more and more stubborn. Matthew must have been spoiling you too much."

Erica muttered, "He doesn't spoil me. He always makes me angry!"

As soon as Blair made the bed, Yvette slipped into the bed and said, "Rika, if you keep talking to Dad, there won't be any space for you in bed here."

Erica ran past Wesley who was blocking her way, climbed into the bed and lay down next to Yvette.

Yvette quickly covered her with the quilt while Erica put Ethan in bed as well.

Blair shook her head with amusement and looked at Wesley with a smile on her face. "If you don't want to sleep on the couch, go and sleep in Gifford's room."

Wesley snorted and left the room angrily.

In less than two minutes, Wesley walked back in the room with a quilt and a pillow in his hands while Blair and his daughters giggled at his misery.
