Too Late, Mr. Cooper: Your Bride Ran with Your Baby novel Chapter 282

The voice was soft and carried a hint of warmth.

It was as bright and vibrant as the sun, yet as gentle as if it had been kissed by an angel, sweet enough to melt one’s heart like cotton candy.

Liam struggled to open his snow-covered eyelids, and when he looked up, he was met with the sight of Liliana, tilting her head as she studied him with curiosity.

Her eyes were clear and innocent. She nibbled on her finger as she looked at him and said in a soft, surprised voice, “Wow, you’re not wearing much. Aren’t you cold?”

Liliana wore her hair in a playful topknot, dressed in a fluffy bunny snowsuit and a soft cap with bunny ears.

The little girl’s clothes were pristine and expensive. It was clear she was a cherished child, well-cared for by her parents.

Liam was stunned for a moment.

He quickly lowered his head in embarrassment, biting his lip so hard it trembled.

In the presence of the clean, bright, and sunny Liliana, Liam was suddenly overwhelmed by a deep-seated self-loathing that came from his very bones.

He timidly curled his small, emaciated body even tighter.

His thin clothes were tattered and filthy. Compared to the immaculate and radiant Liliana, they were from two completely different worlds.

Liam’s lips were blue from the cold. He shivered, slowly closing his eyes in despair.

He expected her to look at him with disgust, just like everyone else did.

But she didn’t.

She just nibbled her finger, her large, round eyes blinking.

Then, a huge smile spread across her fair, childlike face, as bright and warm as the sun.

Liliana ran over and took Liam’s dirt-stained little hand in hers, smiling as she comforted him in her childish voice.

“Hey, you must be lost. Don’t be scared, I’m lost too.”

“It’s okay. I’ll protect you!”

Liliana stood on her tiptoes, patting her chest with a small hand in a gesture that was both bold and adorable.

“I’ll take you to find a policeman, and they’ll help you find your family... um... and my ‘brother’! Hehe~”

Liliana giggled.

Perhaps worried he was cold, she even took off her own clean, warm snowsuit and clumsily, carefully, put it on him.
