The Ex-Wife's Burning Elegance

Without waiting for Rachel's reply, he followed her inside.

Keen and Marvin were still sitting on either side of Stella, one to her left and one to her right.

Neville had taken a seat next to Marvin, while Haynes, who'd come along as well, was now on Keen's other side.

Just then, a pale figure slipped in and sat down next to Haynes.

Startled, Haynes turned to her. "What are you doing here? I thought you weren't supposed to go on these kinds of rides with your health issues."

Rachel's voice was soft and gentle. "I've been feeling much better lately, actually. Besides, Keen just said that if you never get any exercise, you'll end up even worse off. And I've never been on a pirate ship ride before, so I thought I'd give it a try."

The way she spoke, she managed to shift the blame onto Keen before anyone could say a word.

After the attendant finished checking that everyone's safety restraints were secure, the pirate ship ride began to move, slowly at first, swaying back and forth.

The motion wasn't too intense-the ship itself was huge, and the gentle rocking was surprisingly smooth. No one felt dizzy or uncomfortable.

It was Keen's first time on a ride this "exciting," and his eyes widened in curiosity; he even let out a gasp of delight.

Marvin's face lit up with a bright smile.

For once, the two kids seemed like ordinary children, caught up in the thrill of the moment.

But before the ride had even gotten halfway, a shrill, ill-timed voice cut through the happy atmosphere.
