Captivated by the Ruler of the Underworld
Chapter 59 Teaching You to Speak, Not Just Say Thank You

Lela turned her head and looked at Sylvester's mesmerizing amber eyes, nodding seriously. "Thank you, Sylvester. I really like it." Sylvester tousled Lela's little head and said, "Little one, I'm teaching you to speak, not just to say thank you."

He didn't need her thanks.

At this moment, Sylvester's gaze fell on her against the backlight.

Under the backlight, he looked exactly like the man she saw in the valley back then.

His stunning beauty was enough to captivate anyone's gaze.

Lela blinked and leaned forward, planting a kiss on his face.

Sylvester raised his hand and pinched Lela's cheek. "That's right, just like this."

After thinking for a moment, he added possessively, "Only do this to me, understood?"

Lela obediently nodded.

In this world, there was only one person worthy of Lela treating him this way, and that was Sylvester.

"Such a good girl."

...

Beside the swimming pool, Sylvester took off his dark-colored robe and jumped into the water, swimming gracefully from one end to the other.

Lela was playing with sand and looked up, only to see Sylvester emerging from the pool, step by step, walking towards her from the deep end to the shallow end. Suddenly, Lela felt drops of water falling on her. Because he had just come out of the water, his amber eyes looked as clear as if they were soaked in water. The corners of his eyes slightly turned up, drawing a sexy and thin line of lips, as light as water. Water droplets from his wet hair followed the contours of his body, sliding down his chest, abdominal muscles, and disappearing into that mysterious area...

Sylvester stopped by the pool and reached out to Lela. "Lela, come here."

Lela let the sand that was in her hands fall back down, stood up from the sand, clapped her hands, and walked towards Sylvester.

She looked at the shimmering blue water, her gaze momentarily distant.

The cheers and laughter of the tribe by the seaside, as well as the fragments of painful screams, rushed into her mind like scenes from a movie...

And then, the cruel crimes in The Immortal Man...

Seeing that Lela seemed frightened, Sylvester thoughtfully reached out to her. "Don't be afraid, I'll hold you."

"Come, come into my arms."

Lela's thoughts were interrupted, and she looked at Sylvester as he reached out to her. With his handsome face and a smile as always, she murmured, "Hold me..." "Of course, I'll hold you, baby."

Lela closed her eyes, enduring the slight trepidation towards water, and leaped into his arms.

Her slender and fair legs wrapped around Sylvester's strong waist, her small face resting against his neck, her eyes closed.

Sylvester felt peace and contentment radiating through his body and mind...

Holding Lela in his arms, his large hands gently patted her back. "Alright, open your eyes."

Lela slowly opened her eyes and looked at the surrounding water.

It didn't seem as scary as she had imagined, because she was being held by Sylvester.

Lela glanced down at her feet and even began to playfully splash the water with her toes.

The icy water touched her skin, but Lela didn't feel cold at all.

"It's fun."

Sylvester's expression softened as he watched Lela happily playing with the water using her feet. A faint smile formed on his lips.

Holding this little one like this, it actually felt pretty good.

Lela had a great time and looked up at Sylvester. "Put me down."

There was even a hint of anticipation in her eyes.

Sylvester hesitated in his heart, but he didn't forget that they came here today to teach her how to swim. So he slowly let Lela down while reminding her, "Is it cold?" "If it's cold, then I won't learn."

At this moment, nothing was more important to the little one than how she felt.
