193 A Family Outing

Through the rising steam, Natalie caught the smoldering fire still burning in Baron’s eyes, so hot it made her fingertips tremble.

A low chuckle rumbled from his throat, damp breath brushing the back of her car. “Keep staring, and that cold shower will have been for nothing.”

“Baron!”

Natalie shoved him away and bolted out of the room. But that flushed face and playful scowl of hers were more than enough to amuse him.

He swallowed hard, resigned, dried himself off, and changed clothes before stepping out of the guest room.

Natalie was already in the living room, playing with the two children.

Susie and Sean adored her. With their mommy finally free from Baron’s constant presence, the two of them hurried to share their opinions on which kindergarten they wanted.

Natalie listened to their chatter patiently, never once showing annoyance.

This was the warmth of family she’d been missing all along.

Seeing her gentle expression, Susie quickly pulled out her chocolate.

“Mommy, have some. Daddy had this specially made so it won’t hurt my teeth. Try it.“.

“Mommy, what do you like? I’ll buy it for you.”

Sean refused to be outdone.


Natalie’s heart warmed at the sight of them.

“No need. After dinner, Mommy and Daddy will take you to the mall, okay? Mommy hasn’t given you any gifts yet. Today you can pick whatever you want, and Mommy will pay.”
