Almost an hour later...

The white car slowly drove through the gates of the mansion.

The security guards immediately opened the gates after recognizing the vehicle.

Standing quietly at the entrance of the mansion, Ramon watched as the car drove in.

He had returned from the company only a few minutes earlier.

Instead of going inside to change, he had remained where he was.

Even he couldn't explain why.

Perhaps...

He had been waiting.

The car came to a smooth stop.

    After leaving the bumper cars, the three of them wandered deeper into the amusement park.Laughter echoed from every direction.Children ran around with colorful balloons while parents followed behind with tired but happy smiles.Kendrick looked from one attraction to another, unable to decide where to go next."Mummy!" He suddenly pointed ahead. "Can we go there?"Kelsey followed the direction of his finger.It was a small basketball game where children could throw soft balls into tiny hoops to win prizes.She smiled. "Of course."The three of them walked over.Ruby rolled up her sleeves immediately."Stand back. Auntie Ruby is about to show you real talent."Kendrick's eyes sparkled. "You're very good?"Ruby lifted her chin proudly. "I'm the best."The game attendant handed her three soft balls.Ruby confidently aimed at the basket.The first ball completely missed. The second bounced off the rim. The third flew so far that it landed in another game booth.Silence followed immediate

    After leaving the plantation, Kelsey looked at the time on the dashboard. She smiled softly. "I finished earlier than I expected." From the back seat, Kendrick immediately raised his little head. "Are we going now, Mummy?" Kelsey looked at him through the rearview mirror. "Yes." His eyes lit up. "Yay!" He clapped happily, making Kelsey laugh despite everything weighing on her mind. Her little boy really loved to play. She drove toward the amusement park. ... Almost forty minutes later... The moment the colorful entrance came into view, Kendrick pressed his little face against the window. "Mummy! Look!" Kendrick said, looking around. "There are so many rides! And balloons! And ice cream!" His excitement filled the entire car. Kelsey parked the car before getting out. She walked around, opened Kendrick's door and unfastened his seat belt. The little boy jumped down immediately and grabbed her hand tightly. Kelsey frowned slightly at his excitement. To he

    The moment Kelsey walked out of the front door, she took a deep breath.The conversation with Ramon still weighed heavily on her heart, but she pushed it aside.It was still early. She couldn't allow her emotions to weigh her down. She had too much to do today.Just then, the front door opened."Mummy!"Kendrick came running toward her, his little backpack bouncing behind him.Janet hurried after him."Young Master, slow down," she called anxiously.But Kendrick had already reached Kelsey. He wrapped his little arms around her waist."Let's go!"Kelsey smiled and gently pinched his cheek. "Someone seems very excited.""Yes!" Kendrick grinned. "We're going out together. Not with Daddy this time."Kelsey crouched to his height."But before the amusement park, Mummy has somewhere to go first."Kendrick blinked."Work?""Yes.""Will it take long?""I'll finish as quickly as I can."Kendrick nodded seriously."I'll wait."Kelsey smiled. "That's my boy."Kelsey didn't plan to stay long at t

    Ramon's words hung quietly in the dining room."I'm sorry."Kelsey looked at him for several long seconds. There wasn't the slightest change in her expression."Sorry?" She repeated the word slowly, as though tasting how meaningless it sounded.Kelsey folded her arms across her chest and looked straight into his eyes."What exactly are you apologizing for, Ramon?"He opened his mouth, but she didn't give him the chance to answer."Is it because you finally found out that your precious Wanda was the one who drugged you?" Her voice remained calm, but every word carried years of pain. "The same person you accused me of being.""She and I had nothing going on," Ramon corrected immediately. "Wanda was never precious to me."But Kelsey didn't care."Do you remember that day?" She nodded to herself. "I'm sure you do, but I'll remind you just in case you don't."She paused before continuing."You looked at me as if I was the most disgusting woman alive. You never even gave me a chance to expl

    When they arrived home, Ramon carried the sleeping boy upstairs while Kelsey quietly followed behind.After making sure Kendrick was sleeping peacefully, she wished him goodnight with a gentle kiss on his forehead before returning to her room.She closed the door behind her.Ramon stood outside for a long moment. He wanted to knock. He wanted to talk to her.In the end...He turned around and walked away.Some conversations couldn't happen that night....The next morning...Sunlight streamed through the curtains, filling the bedroom with a warm glow.Kelsey frowned slightly in her sleep.She slowly opened her eyes and blinked several times before turning to look at the clock on the bedside table.The moment she saw the time, her eyes widened."Oh goodness..."She quickly sat up. "It's this late already?"She had overslept.That had never happened before.She usually woke up much earlier, but today she had slept far longer than usual. Maybe everything that had happened yesterday had f

    Kelsey stepped out of her room after changing into the dress. The soft fabric brushed gently against her skin as she carefully held the side of the gown, afraid she might accidentally step on it.
