After hearing her mother's words, Alicia froze in disbelief.
Serena's casual tone still lingered in the air, but the meaning behind her words struck Alicia like a thunderbolt.
Silver-haired kid.
Alicia's eyes widened, her chest tightening. As far as she knew, there was only one silver-haired boy she had ever met. Only one person that description fit.
For a moment, her lips parted, but no words came out. She stood there, too stunned to speak, her mind racing at lightning speed.
Seeing her daughter's expression, Serena's lips curved into a victorious smile.
"What happened? Cat got your tongue?"
Alicia snapped out of her daze, her heartbeat accelerating. She stepped out from behind Reynard's tall figure, her voice trembling with urgency.
"Mom… are you talking about the one I think you're talking about?"
Serena tilted her head, her expression infuriatingly calm. Her lips curled into a playful smirk.
"That depends. Who do you think I'm talking about?"
