Harrietta agreed, so Lenora grabbed her car keys and headed out.

As the capital of Jiuphes, Jacaster serves as both a political and economic hub, with a thriving tourism industry and several nationally renowned scenic spots that attract crowds during holiday seasons. Lenora drove Harrietta to two popular spots in Jacaster snapping lots of photos along the way and browsing the shops nearby.

Full of energy, Harrietta bought a bunch of souvenirs to bring back to her grandma and classmates. By noon, Lenora took Harrietta to a small but popular restaurant near one of the sites for lunch. They chose a window seat with a nice view outside.

The seat was a bit high, so Lenora lifted Harrietta into it, her short legs swinging back and forth.

To make it easier to look after her, Lenora sat on the same side and discussed with her what dishes to order.

Living in a Clusian community in Lofbury, Harrietta was used to Clusian food, though the options back there weren't as extensive as they were here.

This lunch finally let her show her true colors as a kid who just couldn't resist good food-she ate so much she looked like a little kitten with food all over her face

Once they'd had enough, Lenora took her to the restroom to wash up a bit.

They returned to their seats to relax, leaning together as they looked through the photos on the camera. Suddenly, Lenora's phone on the table lit up with a new message on WhatsApp.

She glanced at it and saw it was from Connor: Ms. Wilkin, have you had lunch yet?

He'd also sent a photo of his lunchbox with the text: I've started work at Fuller Group.

Lenora's mouth twitched as she rubbed her forehead.

What was Connor doing?

She'd thought he'd back off after learning she was divorced, but he was still hanging around. Although maybe she was overthinking it. He just be reaching out for professional advice since he

knew she used to work at the Fuller Group.

Harrietta kept peeking at Lenora's phone screen.

The little girl was very literate for her age; she noticed the name "Connor Morris" and knew it was a man. She couldn't help but feel a bit hostile. He is probably trying to steal Aunt Lenora away from Uncle Zachary! Just as Lenora was debating whether to reply, Harrietta suddenly spoke up, her big eyes staring at Lenora innocently. "Aunt Lenora, who's Connor?"
