The Runaway Groom

Baby was fine with using cutlery, but he tended to make a mess.

Still, it was nothing since there were plenty of servants around the house, and Irene did not have to do anything.

Once Baby had his fill, they left, picking up Tommy around five when school was out.

Irene had both her boys share a room so that they would bond.

Tommy took a bath first, while Baby was too young to do it himself. Irene helped him and wrapped him in a towel before she carried him back into his room. Finding Tommy reading a book, Irene helped Baby get dry while asking, "What are you reading? You look like you're suddenly older."

Tommy blinked. "But I am the older brother."

Irene pinched his cheek, "Yes, and you're all grown up."
