Chương 1249: The family tied by love, not blood

Alex woke up in the middle of the night, hearing a shrilling sound from somewhere in the room. He forced his eyes to work through the dark room, squinting hard to clear his vision.

Eventually, he found the source of the commotion. Quickly, he stood up, realizing that it might wake Dani up. He grabbed the baby monitor and toned it down.

"Ouch!" But somehow, he caught his toe on the bedstand, making him bend in pain. But he managed to control himself before he could shout and wake up his wife.

He knew she was exhausted, working hard in the office and immediately caring for their son once she arrived home.

Quickly, he moved toward the door, gently opening it to prevent making a squeaking sound. Then, he strode toward his son's room, right next door.

"Hey, buddy!" He called to his son, using a mild tone, creating a soothing sound.
