Chapter 1341

Cooper lingered by the window, keeping an eye on his nephew's mischievous little moves. He chuckled under his breath, then got back to cleaning. Thankfully, the place was small, so tidying up didn't take forever.

Once everything was spotless, he scooped up his sweetie for a quick bath. Afterward, the two of them-uncle and nephew-headed out to the supermarket, just enjoying the day together.

Henry got the VIP seat in the shopping cart while Cooper tossed in some ready meals and snacks. At the register, he lifted Henry into his arms, and the two of them strolled home, taking their time and soaking up the easygoing vibe.

By now, Henry was a familiar face in the neighborhood. He'd been here enough times that nothing felt new anymore. As they walked back, he wriggled free from Cooper's hand, insisting on running ahead like a big kid.

"Hey, hold up, short stuff! For someone with little legs, you sure can move," Cooper called, catching up and clasping Henry's tiny hand. "Tell you what, since your uncle loves you this much, how about you help me out, huh?”

Henry craned his neck, lips pursed, clearly wondering what help someone his size could possibly offer.

Cooper bent down, whispering something secret in his ear.

"Uncle, are you being silly again?" Henry blurted, brows furrowed.

Back at home, Mia was a mess of worry. She couldn't eat, couldn't study-her mind always drifting to her little boy. Every spare minute, she wanted to call him. Meanwhile, halfway around the world, Henry was snuggled up in his uncle's cramped little bed, Cooper's arms wrapped around him. After dinner, Cooper had taken him out to watch people playing frisbee, and Henry was so into it that he didn't want to leave. Eventually, Cooper caved and bought him his own frisbee.
