Natalie was also worried the children would catch a cold if they stood in the rain any longer. She nodded in agreement. “Sure, let's go.”

The three adults and two children left the mausoleum and returned to the car together.

“Let's go back to the villa,” Shane ordered Silas as he took out a few towels, passing them around.

Silas immediately started the car and began driving.

On the way, Shane busied himself drying the children's hair with the towels, completely disregarding the fact that his hair was just as wet and dripping with rainwater.

Jared and Natalie were drying their own hair at their side. Watching the scene, Jared chuckled and said, “Shane's a great dad indeed.”

“Yes, he is.” Natalie nodded while smiling.

“All right,” he said. Seeing that the children's hair was mostly dry now, he stopped fussing over them and was about to start drying his own when a white towel flew toward him and landed on his head.

Natalie laughed lightly. “You must be tired after drying their hair, so let me help you with yours.”
