The Wife You Buried Is Back from Hell novel Chapter 909

"I missed you too, sweetie," Danielle said, kissing her daughter's forehead. "Mommy is going to show you all around Northridge City for the next two days, okay?"

"Yay!" Niki clapped her hands, then tugged on Danielle's hand. "Mommy, Daddy is in Northridge City too, right? Can we go see him?"

Danielle's heart skipped a beat. Seeing the hopeful look in her daughter's eyes, she nodded gently. "Yes, we can. We'll have a fun day today, and tomorrow we'll go find Daddy."

Niki was overjoyed, chattering nonstop all the way back to the hotel, asking if Daddy missed her and if he would take her to the amusement park. Danielle answered each question patiently, though a knot of nervousness was tightening in her stomach. She had no idea how Alexander would react to seeing Niki, or what would happen when the three of them were together.

After settling in at the hotel, Danielle took Niki to a nearby park. Watching her daughter run and play on the grass, a genuine smile finally returned to Danielle's face. She pulled out her phone and, after a long hesitation, sent a message to Alexander: "Niki is in Northridge City. If you're free tomorrow, would you like to have lunch with us?"

She put the phone back in her pocket, her heart fluttering with a mix of hope and apprehension, unsure if he would reply or even agree to meet.

At The Davidson Group, Alexander had just sobered up and was trying to tackle the mountain of paperwork on his desk. When Danielle's message lit up his screen, his hand froze. He read it several times to make sure he wasn't mistaken. Not only had Danielle contacted him first, but she was inviting him to lunch, and Niki was here.

He took a deep breath and replied, "Okay. I'll pick you up tomorrow at noon. Let Niki choose where she wants to eat."

The next day, Alexander arrived at the hotel early. When he saw Danielle walk out holding Niki's hand, his heart began to pound. Niki spotted him, let go of Danielle's hand, and ran toward him. "Daddy!"

The black sedan pulled up smoothly to the restaurant, and a valet immediately opened the door. Alexander got out first, then walked around to hold the top of the doorframe as Danielle helped Niki out. He then effortlessly retrieved a child's car seat he had prepared in advance. He had specifically asked his assistant to install it, even choosing a cover with Niki's favorite pink bunny pattern.

"Daddy, how did you know I like bunnies?" Niki asked, her eyes sparkling as she gripped the edge of the seat.

Alexander knelt to buckle her in, gently tapping her nose. "Because Daddy remembers Niki saying she wanted to keep a little bunny with her all the time."
