Some emotion I couldn’t quite name got crushed and scattered, sinking deep into my heart. I kept my eyes down and took another sip of nut milk, but all my calm was gone.

After breakfast, I took Nathan and Yvonne to a nearby mountain. We climbed until we reached a pavilion halfway up, and that was as far as I wanted to go.

Nathan, even with his injury, was in good shape and wasn’t out of breath at all. Yvonne, though, was sweating and panting like a little puppy. She tugged on my arm and asked, “Mom, do we have to keep climbing? I’m so tired!”

Nathan chuckled. “Then let’s stop here.”

I looked down from halfway up the mountain. From here, I could see the whole layout of the school area- two new classroom buildings were already taking shape, and they were leveling out a field behind them to make a huge sports field. The whole scene was pretty impressive.

By the time we got down the mountain, it was already lunchtime. I treated my parents to lunch at a restaurant, and set up a separate table for the bodyguards and the driver.

During the meal, my dad kept looking like he wanted to say something but held back. Mariah had already talked to me and knew Nathan and I weren’t a couple, so she didn’t try to bring it up again.

Nathan, aside from taking a few work calls, was gentle and composed as always. He had an air of quiet dignity -there was something magnetic about him that made people want to be near him.

In the afternoon, I took Nathan and Yvonne for a stroll down the pedestrian street. We bought whatever we liked, and the three of us walking together really looked just like a family of three.

I had a dark little thought–if Jared saw us like this, would he get that resentful husband look on his face, just like he did in my previous life?

In my previous life, while he and Tracy took Yvonne traveling all over the world, I hid at home like a coward, turning into a resentful wife.

“Mom, why don’t you get a gift for Nathan? I saw him staring at that bracelet over and over,” Yvonne said, tugging on my arm and pulling me down to whisper something.
