Chapter 879 - Nicolae & Summer

Nicolae decided to postpone all of his questions and focus all of his attention on Summer. What's important now was to treat this child, feed her, and made sure she was fully recovered. Later, Nicolae would be able to find her parents.

"Have a nice meal," Nicolae said. "You must eat a lot, so you can recover quickly. Later, I will help get you home."

Summer nodded. She was about to cut her pancakes when Nicolae overtook the task and sliced ​​the pancakes into small pieces. The man also cracked her boiled eggs for her.

Summer looked at Nicolae with a thankful look. And slowly, she smiled.

"Thank you, Uncle Nic," she said quietly.

Nicolae was fascinated by how sweet the girl's smile was. He just saw Summer have dimples on both cheeks deep enough when she smiled. Her small peach-shaped eyes almost disappeared into two black lines covered by a thick and long eyelash curtain when she smiled broadly.

Nicolae couldn't believe that a regular human, outside of the Alchemist clan, could look so perfect like this. He became increasingly curious to know what her parents were like. Could it be that they were also members of the clan?

He decided to ask Caspar about this possibility.

"You're welcome, Sweetheart. Eat a lot," Nicolae said.

He only silently watched Summer as the child enjoyed pancakes on her plate, then two hard-boiled eggs and various fruit slices. Nicolae tried to eat, but somehow he could not force food into his mouth at all. His throat felt nauseous, and his head hurt.

This morning, looking at summer, felt like pouring salt over his wounded heart that was almost healed. The child made him think of his child who had never been born ...

Had she or he lived, it must ber this kid's age now ...

Nicolae took a deep breath and, after a few minutes, finally decided to look for the little girl's parents by taking her to the police station. He really couldn't stand it the longer he saw Summer near him. The image of Marie was hovering in his mind, followed by the news of her death six years ago. It hurt his head.

He usually took the time to visit Singapore once a year every summer holiday to visit the grave where Marie and their child were buried. This year, he decided to not stop the tradition and not come there because he would always be overcome by sadness. He wanted to move on and continue his life. But alas, today in Paris, he seemed to be forced to remember Marie again ...

Why can't they leave him alone?

After breakfast, Nicolae took Summer back to her room and ran a bath for her in the bathtub. He intentionally called Marion to help the child take a bath because he did not want Summer to feel uncomfortable with him.

"Summer, please meet Aunt Marion. She is Uncle Nic's friend. She will help you take a bath and get dressed. After that, we will go to the police station to look for your family," Nicolae said while introducing Marion to Summer.

He had briefly told Marion about what happened, and the woman was happy to help. She approached Summer, who was sitting on a chair with a sweet and amiable smile.

"Hello, Summer. My name is Marion. I have a daughter too, like you. Later, I will bring her here so you can meet her."

Summer nodded politely. "Hello, Auntie Marion."

"Geez ... you're so sweet! Let's take a bath and change clothes. I will dress you up. You will look so pretty."

Marion lifted Summer excitedly and carried her to the bathroom. She was overjoyed because she felt like she had a young daughter again. It's been a long time since she was able to hold her daughter.

JM was already big now and she was even taller than her. There was no way Marion could carry her!

Last night, while looking for information about Summer, Nicolae had ordered a few girls' clothes and other necessities from the marketplace. Before Summer finished bathing, a courier had come to deliver the items he ordered.

"Marion, I put all her stuff on the table in her bedroom, okay," Nicolae said after knocking on the bathroom door.

"Thank you," Marion said from the bathroom.

She bathed Summer affectionately, as if to her own child. Once she was done, Marion dried Summer's hair with a hairdryer. After carrying Summer back to her room, Marion placed the girl on the bed. Marion then brought all the stuff Nicolae bought for Summer and chose the cutest one.

"Ahh .. everything is so beautiful. Which one do you want to choose?" she asked as he showed clothes after the clothes from the table.

Summer finally chose white shorts and a purple top. She looked fresh in the casual style clothes she chose. When she and Marion left the room to meet Nicolae who was waiting for them in the living room, the young man seemed to smile broadly.

"You look very beautiful," he praised.

"Thank you, Uncle Nic," Summer said in her small voice.

"All right. Summe. Please, sit down. I want to ask about your parents. I need to know what their names are so I can look for them and return you home," Nicolae said. He patted the sofa beside him.

Summer sat beside Nicolae obediently.

"Can't you find that kind of information?" Marion asked in surprise. He knew Nicolae was Wolf, and was once one of the world's best hackers with information at his fingertips. She did not understand why Nicolae had to interrogate this little girl to find out who her family was.

Nicolae shook his head slowly. "Her parents are not ordinary people. They covered her tracks well."

"Oh, is that so?" Marion looked at Summer and tried to guess who the child really was.

Nicolae then turned to Summer. "Honey ... do you remember your parents' names? Then when did you meet the two bad guys who held you? Did they kidnap you from your family's house?"

Summer shook his head.

"Oh ... you don't know your mother's name?" Nicolae became rather desperate. Young children rarely knew their parents' full names. "Do you know where your address is?"

Summer shook her head again.
