Unconscious Husband: Meet Her Love In Silence by Ken Slaner

Just as Ariana began to retract her hand, thinking the child would ignore the gesture entirely, Adele unexpectedly reached out and placed a small wrapped candy in Ariana’s palm. Surprised, Ariana looked down at the candy in her hand, her heart melting.

Ariana longed to embrace Adele warmly, but she restrained herself, mindful of Devin’s watchful presence.

Devin, too, appeared pleasantly shocked by Adele’s swift and open response to Ariana. A swell of hope filled him, suggesting that this new psychologist could truly be a positive, nurturing influence on the reserved young Miss.
