Chapter 71: The Unexpected Stalker?

"Big Sis, can't you let them in just this once? I want you to always be safe, so we can always be together. It's better to have them around in case something unexpected happens—something even we can't handle."

Aiden took a deep breath, deliberately adopting a shy demeanor to soften her resolve. "So, please, Big Sis, will you let them in for me? We're already running late. Pretty please?"

Alicia, who had been on the verge of losing control after hearing words that aligned so deeply with her own desire to stay by Aiden's side forever, began to calm down. Seeing him act shy before her, his innocent gaze weakening her resolve, she felt herself melting inside. It was becoming increasingly difficult for her to maintain her stern posture when he appeared like this, so vulnerable and adorable. She always became weak when he acted this way, her defenses crumbling faster than she'd care to admit.
