Elyse was unable to respond to Forrest’s question. She paused, smiled warmly, and said, “I can’t answer you.”

“Then I’ll keep your secret,” Forrest responded, scratching his head.

Elyse couldn’t help but smile as she watched Forrest devour the cake joyfully. She approached Driscoll and whispered, “Why doesn’t Jayden like kids?”

“I don’t think he dislikes them. He just finds it hard to get along with children,” Driscoll responded candidly, caught off guard by the question.

“Why does he feel that way?” Elyse asked, puzzled.

“As a child, he was often neglected, and his needs were unmet.” Driscoll managed a wry smile. “Growing up, he distanced himself from children who showed a strong dependence.”
