Natalie wanted nothing more than to sink into the floor.

Baron quickly intervened. “No need. Your mommy just needs some rest. If you’re bored, why don’t you take the kids out for a walk? It’s their first time in the countryside.”

“Really? Uncle, are there chickens and ducks here?”

“Uncle, I heard there are pigs in the countryside. Is that true?”

The twins lit up with curiosity, bombarding Flynn with questions.

Flynn glanced at Natalie’s flushed, embarrassed face, and his heart softened. “Alright, Uncle will take you out to explore.”
