The phone rang suddenly, diverting Juliette's attention.

Leopold picked it up and said, "Yeah, Dawson, I've got Juliette and Isaiah with me. We'll be there shortly."

Juliette's eyes lit up, "Godfather, is that Dawson?"

Seeing Juliette was okay, Leopold breathed a sigh of relief, "Yes, your Dawson knows you're coming to see him. He's booked a table at Chuck E. Cheese's and is waiting there for us." Juliette was quick to move on from the recent events, grabbing Leopold's hand to hurry him, "Let's go then, I've missed Dawson so much!"

Juliette was alright now.

Leopold felt his heart rollercoastering with emotions, still thumping wildly!

Thank goodness Juliette was unharmed. If anything serious had happened, he wouldn't know how to explain it to Vivienne.

After informing their teachers, Leopold scooped one child in each arm and headed for the car.

Once they were all buckled in, he finally relaxed, catching Juliette's excited reflection in the rearview mirror, a pang of bittersweet emotion washed over him.

"Who said this morning that I was the most important? You haven't even seen Dawson yet, and you've already forgotten about your godfather, haven't you?" Juliette's eyes sparkled, "All my mentors are important to me, but I only have one godfather. How could I compare that importance, right, godfather?" Leopold couldn't help but smile at her response. He was quite satisfied.

Just as the car started, a fleeting shadow caught Isaiah's eye.

He paused, looking out the window, but saw nothing.

Checking his tablet, there were no alerts.

Isaiah suddenly remembered Juliette's words, frowning slightly.
