Chapter 157 Alexander's Daughter's Last Name is Spencer
Elizabeth bit her lip, mustering the courage to ask, "I know you treat Alice well. Maybe I misunderstood you. You wouldn't harm Alice, after all, she is your daughter, but..."
Alexander bluntly said, "What are you trying to say?"
"Why does Alice get up so early? Is the kindergarten even open now?" Elizabeth asked.
Alexander snorted, "Alice's kindergarten starts at 8:30, but I can't take her out at that time. Do you expect me to arrive at the office at 10, keeping the whole company waiting for me to start the meeting?"
Elizabeth fell silent.
After a second, she said, "I understand. If there's nothing else, I'll hang up."
Hanging up the phone, Alexander didn't tell Elizabeth that he had taken Alice to the hospital, mainly to prevent her from worrying unnecessarily.
The morning light shone into the hospital, making it appear serene.
The ward where Marcus was located was even more undisturbed, with bodyguards stationed around the perimeter. When the bodyguards saw Alexander approaching, they greeted in unison, "Mr. Windsor, good morning."
Alexander nodded slightly, leading Alice towards the ward.
Alice was a bit nervous, looking up at Alexander and calling out, "Bad guy."
"Call me Dad!" Alexander said expressionlessly.
Alice pursed her lips, reluctant to call.
However, Alexander had indeed played well with her yesterday. The stories he told were different from those Elizabeth and Samuel told. Being coaxed to sleep by Alexander gave Alice an unprecedented sense of security.
In kindergarten, many naughty kids often teased Alice for not having a dad. Whenever she was teased, Alice would beat those kids up badly.
On the surface, Alice seemed fierce.
But only Alice knew that deep down, she longed for a dad's protection and love.
Now that she had a dad, Alice was very happy inside.
However, Elizabeth was afraid of Alexander.
Alice wanted to protect Elizabeth, so she couldn't easily call Alexander "Dad."
When she heard Alexander asking her to call him Dad, Alice suddenly stopped walking.
Alexander stopped, looking at this little girl, who resembled him by eighty percent and had the same unyielding and difficult-to-tame personality, with great interest.
"What, you don't want to call me that?" Alexander asked.
Alice said, "I can call you Dad! But I have conditions!"
"What are your conditions?" Alexander asked with interest.
"My mom owes you money. You can't make her pay it back!" Alice said, looking at Alexander with her adorable eyes.
Alexander suddenly laughed inside!
Alice was indeed his child. She already understood the art of negotiation in business at such a young age.
Calling him Dad in exchange for a million dollars.
He looked at Alice indifferently, saying, "I've thought it over. If you don't want to call me Dad, I can't force you."
With that, Alexander continued to lead Alice towards the ward.
Alice was stunned.
This bad guy Alexander!
Didn't he always want her to call him Dad? Why did he suddenly not care now?
She was willing to make this exchange!
Annoying!
Alice stomped her feet in anger!
Alexander sneered inwardly, 'You don't even know who your father is. As your father, I can't control you? And you should want to negotiate with me!'
He pretended not to hear Alice's angry stomping, continuing to lead her towards the ward.
"Bad guy, where are you taking me? Are you going to sell me to an orphanage?" Alice asked irritably, even though she knew that Alexander would never sell her.
"An old man wants to see you," Alexander said truthfully.
Old man?
Alice couldn't think of who it could be, so she had no choice but to follow Alexander into the ward.
The ward was luxurious, with five specialized senior caregivers, as well as Felix and Sierra.
"Dad," Alexander called as he entered.
Felix was momentarily stunned when he saw Alice.
Sierra's face didn't look good.
She had three sons, but they all died young, leaving no children behind. Instead, Alexander's illegitimate child became the only descendant of the Windsor family.
It was truly ironic.
Alexander was an illegitimate child, and his daughter, Alice, was also illegitimate.
A flash of contempt crossed Sierra's eyes, it was fleeting but caught by Alexander.
In contrast, Felix's eyes were full of excitement and emotion when he looked at Alice.
This child was five years old, right? It was the first time that she had met her relatives?
"Dear, come here. I'm your grandpa," Felix bent down to hug Alice and coaxed.
Alice was scared and clung to Alexander's leg, looking at Felix with extreme wariness.
Meanwhile, Marcus, who was lying in bed, struggled to sit up and called out in a hoarse voice, "Where is the child? Come on, let me see."
Alice was even more frightened, having nowhere to hide.
She wanted to run away, but she didn't know how to get home and had no way to call Elizabeth. Thinking it over, it was better to stay with Alexander.
Alice clung to Alexander's leg even tighter.
At this moment, Alexander bent down slowly, gently saying to Alice, "Call me Dad, and I'll hold you."
At this moment, she finally understood the saying she often saw on the website but never comprehended that older people were more cunning.
"Call me Dad!" Alexander said expressionlessly.
Alice, being unyielding, said, "If I call you Dad, my mom will be sad."
Alexander said, "Alright, I can compromise. When you're with your mom, you don't have to call me Dad. When she's not around, you call me Dad."
That works!
Becoming happy, Alice had always wanted to call Alexander Dad but felt guilty.
Now, in this dangerous moment, to save herself and to see Elizabeth again, Alice felt she had no choice.
She sweetly called out, "Dad."
Alexander was momentarily dazed.
Six years!
He had waited six years for this word.
He finally heard it.
He bent down, picking Alice up.
"What are you two whispering about? Alexander, bring the child over to let your grandpa see!" Sierra said sternly.
Alexander carried Alice to Marcus, introducing in a calm tone, "My daughter, Alice Spencer."
At these words, the other three people in the ward were stunned.
Sierra was the first to ask, "Alexander, what did you say her last name is?"
