Edmund was choked. Not because Alice was gripping his hand, Sky was glaring at him, or Louis was shaking his head, but because of his granddaughter's innocent face that was so serious in listening to him.

"What, Grandpa? What has Uncle Louis done to Mommy? Is the consequence so bad that Grandpa is this angry with him?"

Edmund did not dare to answer. His throat felt hot, his eyes were cloudy.

He remembered how he had thrown Sky out when her pregnancy was revealed, how tight his chest felt every time his longing and disappointment for his daughter hit, and how deep his regret was when he first saw his granddaughter's tiny face.

Edmund did hate the fact that he failed to protect his daughter from the person she loved. However, he did not regret Summer's presence in the world.

"You're still too young to understand, Summer," he said at the end of his contemplation.

"If Grandpa doesn't explain it, how can I understand? In my eyes, Uncle Louis is very good. He is the perfect father for me. N

    Edmund snorted. He was fed up with the conversation."I knew it. You try to influence my mind," he got up from the bed.Alice widened her eyes at him. "Ed? Where are you going?""Getting some fresh air. We shouldn't talk yet. You don't want me to drag that jerk and throw him in the yard again, do you?"Alice sighed in disbelief. "Ed?"However, Edmund was determined. He kissed his wife's head, whispering, "I'll come back and hug you after you're asleep."Then, without further ado, Edmund left the room. Alice could only sigh in resignation.Meanwhile, the people gathered in the living room were shocked. They didn't expect Edmund to come. Sky quickly lowered his hand from Louis' face, while Summer reflexively jumped from Edmund's lap."Grandpa, where are you going?" the little girl asked with round eyes.Edmund was forced to stop. He couldn't ignore his grandchild. "Go out for a while. I need to calm my mind."After throwing a sarcastic look at Louis, Edmund walked away. He didn't want t

    Sky flinched when she opened her eyes. Louis' face was so close in front of her."Louis? Did you sleep here all night?" Sky spontaneously sat up.Hearing her sigh, Louis woke up. As his consciousness returned, he also lifted his back from the bed."Gosh!" Louis clutched his head. His eyes widened, not believing where he was. "I fell asleep here?"Frowning anxiously, Sky elbowed his arm. "You said you would move to the couch after Summer fell asleep?""Yes, but it turns out, I fell asleep too. How could I walk out of the room if I was already asleep? That's Emily's bad habit, not mine."Grimacing, Sky blinked in resignation. At that moment, she realized that Summer was no longer between them."Get out quickly! If Papa sees the two of us here, he will misunderstand. His anger will explode even more violently than last night."

    Suddenly, Summer widened her eyes. "Grandma, is it heavy?"She approached Alice who was carrying a large pot. When she was about to help, her grandmother said, "Don't touch it, Honey. It's hot."Summer quickly pulled her hand away. "Oops, sorry, Grandma. I just wanted to help.""It's okay, Honey. Next time be careful when holding something, okay?" Alice said as she put the pot on the table.Summer nodded sweetly. "Okay, Grandma.""Good. Now sit down. You have to taste my special porridge."Summer's eyes sparkled. She quickly climbed onto her chair, peering into the bowl that Alice had placed in front of her."Carrot porridge! Thank you, Grandma. I'll eat a lot of it. I also want to have sharp eyesight like a rabbit."Summer put her hands on her head, imitating rabbit ears. Seeing her cuteness, Edmund laughed faintly."Rabbits' eyesight actually isn't that great, Summer. They do have sharp long-distance vision, but their close-up vision is not so good. Their only advantage lies in the

    In front of a blue lake surrounded by mountains, Summer stretched her arms and took a deep breath. Her eyes were closed, her smile so bright. She loved to enjoy the fresh morning air. When her eyelids were lifted again, she turned to face the man beside her."How is it, Uncle Louis? Isn't it very refreshing?"Louis opened his eyes. He turned around. Summer was waiting for his answer with a radiant face."Yes, my lungs feel clean now. Thank you for bringing me here, Summer. Now I know that the beauty of this place has not changed."Summer giggled proudly. "You're welcome, Uncle. Now ...."The toddler pulled Louis' hand, "Show me where you were when you first saw Mommy. She said, you were playing with Aunt Emily and Uncle Russell at that time."Louis happily held her tiny hand. Together, they walked along the edge of the lake."The lake water was very cold at that time. My siblings and I splashed water on each other, here."Louis stopped walking. Summer's eyes rounded, seeing his last st

    "Gosh, Freddy. I never thought we'd meet again. How are you?" Sky asked in a cheerful voice.After patting Sky's back twice, the man replied, "Fine. How are you?"Sky took the distance while nodding, "Fine.""Are you sure? Even though my job is just adventuring, I still have time to observe the media."Sky slowly lost her smile. "I've caused quite a stir, apparently. Even the guy who only stares at nature knows. You don't have to worry, Fred. I'm fine. That problem has been resolved. By the way, why are you here?""Believe it or not, I came to see you."Sky narrowed her eyes. "See me? Do I owe you anything?" she whispered softly.Freddy chuckled. "No. It's just that, ever since I saw you on the news, my heart has been restless. I wanted to see you in person, to make sure you're okay."Freddy's eyes were full of warmth

    Sky frowned. She didn't agree with what her father said. So did Alice. She realized Louis' face had turned sour.However, before they could say anything, Summer shook her head firmly. "No, Grandpa. I have Uncle Louis now. We have agreed to treat each other as father and daughter. After he marries Mommy, I will call him Daddy."Edmund froze, but Freddy was still trying to keep a smile. "Uncle Louis?" he whispered, sounding surprised."Yeah, you should meet him, Uncle Fred." Summer patted Freddy's shoulder, then extended her hand to Louis.Seeing her gesture, Louis approached them. "Hi, I'm Louis." He was reluctant to say he was pleased to meet Freddy.The man carrying Summer raised the corners of his lips. "Finally, I get to meet the famous Louis Harper. Hi, I'm Freddy. Just call me Fred." He shook Louis' hand while carrying Summer with one arm.Louis shook hi

    "Summer," Freddy called loudly.The toddler, who was already a little ahead, turned around. "What's wrong, Uncle Fred?""Didn't you say you wanted to listen to the story of my adventure? How about I tell you about it now?"Summer glanced at Louis. Hesitation dimmed the light in her eyes. "Uncle Louis, do you mind?"Louis shook his head slightly. "Just do what you like, Summer.""Okay. Let's talk again later. Okay, Uncle?"Louis nodded. After that, he switched positions with Freddy. The path was narrow. There was no way he could force himself to walk side by side with Summer and the adventurer."Hey, what were you guys talking about?" Louis whispered when Sky arrived at his side.Sky took a deep breath, "He said he was jealous of you. He doesn't like seeing you close to Summer and me."Louis snorte

    Louis spontaneously laughed. He was amused to see how expressive his daughter was. However, realizing Edmund's cynical glance, he closed his mouth again and listened."After many efforts, Mommy decided to use a rope. I was in charge of holding it from above while Mommy tied the other end to the baby elephant's body. It was an important task because the rope must not fall. If it got wet, it would become slippery. It would be difficult for Mommy and I to pull it.""Your mom wasn't strong enough to push the baby elephant out of the hole. Wouldn't it be harder if you guys pulled it from above?" Freddy's voice suddenly caught all their attention. It was Louis' turn to have a sour expression."We weren't strong enough at first. I had used all my strength, though. The veins in my hands were sticking out."The toddler looked down, pointing to where the veins she meant. After a brief silence, she raised her h

    While listening to Summer's explanation, Louis smiled in amusement. "Got it, Little Human.""Then, now," Summer got up from her mother's thighs and returned to her previous position, "it's Uncle Louis' turn to practice it. Come on, Uncle. Sit here!"Sky's heart throbbed, sending electric shocks throughout her body. She spontaneously turned to Summer, whispering, "Honey? Why did you ask him to practice it? Mommy and Louis aren't married yet. Grandpa would be angry if he knew Louis had touched me carelessly.""Not touching, Mommy. This is massaging. There's a theory about it! I've taught it to Uncle Louis earlier. Now it's time to practice. Uncle Louis, what are you waiting for? Hurry up and sit here," Summer patted the back of Sky's thigh. "It's getting late. We have to finish massaging Mommy before bedtime."Sky turned her head the other way. She wanted to forbid him, but Louis had already sat down a

    Sky shook her head more firmly. "No, Honey. That doesn't sound healthy. Sweating is good. Doing a lot of things is also good.""You don't need to worry about your health, Sky. Even though you don't work, you can still sweat. I'll give you special time for that," Louis said while winking.Sky's head was pushed back. Her mouth stopped speaking. She couldn't believe that Louis had just teased her."Uncle Louis is right. Even though Mommy doesn't work, Mommy can still sweat through exercise. Let's do it together! I like exercising," Summer nodded, adorably. She didn't realize that her words had saved her mother from dirty thoughts."Oh," Sky blinked, "okay. But, forever is too much. How about ... until the wedding day? After that, Louis only needs to help me if I have trouble."Louis smiled faintly. "Okay, but I have the right to help you whenever I want.""Okay,

    "See? Our daughter is indeed very smart. She has fair and mature thinking," Louis praised.Sky shook her head vaguely. She was still stunned. "Where did you hear about the deterrent effect?""I heard it on TV when we were sitting in the airport waiting room. From I also learned how to sue criminals there."Louis couldn't hold back his laughter anymore. Sitting next to his daughter, he put his arm around her little shoulders."You're right, Baby," Louis held her hand proudly. "The losses you suffered due to my negligence are so large. I have to pay for all of it. Never mind one billion. I think even ten billion is not enough."Summer stared at her father. "Is the amount I'm demanding not big enough?""Summer?" Sky reprimanded.However, Louis had already nodded. "I'll give you 10 billion."As Sky gaped in disbelief, Sum

    Seeing how sweet Louis and Sky were, Emily took a deep breath. "Alright. I'll make it according to your wishes. A nice dress that protects your future wife from the wind."Louis nodded triumphantly. "Thank you, Emily. You are the best sister in the world!""You only have one sister, Louis. It's only natural that I'm the best," Emily said, sarcastically.At that moment, Cayden entered the living room. He had just returned from dropping off the others. "Princess, are you done with your business?""Yeah. I can go to the hotel now," Emily replied as she got up from the couch.Summer quickly helped her up. "Thank you for your help, Auntie. Sorry for bothering you," she said sweetly."You're welcome, My Dear. Let's continue the preparations tomorrow morning. Get some rest tonight. You must be very tired.""Yes!" she nodded firmly. "Auntie too.

    "So," Emily put her hand on Summer's knee, "do you agree with this design? Is there anything you want to change?"Summer shook her head. "No, Auntie. It's perfect. I can't wait to see Mommy in it.""Okay. Thanks for your feedback, Sweetie. Now," Emily gave the tablet to Louis, "what do you think?"Louis and Sky looked at the design at the same time. It was a white sheath dress inspired by a jumpsuit. That's why it had straps with metal hooks and buttons."Wow! I've never seen a wedding dress like this before. This is a new style!" Louis commented as he turned to Sky."Yes, and it suits me perfectly. But, Emily, isn't the neckline too low? Since I'm not going to wear a sweater under this dress, I'll feel uncomfortable if .... You know what I mean."Emily chuckled. "I knew it. You were going to ask me to raise the neckline. No problem. I've got plan B. Just sli

    Louis looked at Summer with a warm heart. He liked her enthusiasm, but he had to be realistic. "How about next weekend?"Summer's eyes reflected light again. "That's a great idea, Uncle Louis!"However, Sky frowned. She had a different idea. "Are you sure, Louis? Isn't that too soon? With less than one week of preparation, we can only have a simple wedding.""Do you mind?" Louis replied lightly.Sky blinked. "Me? No.""Me neither. Let's have a simple wedding. Isn't that what you dream of? A wedding in the middle of the forest attended by only the closest people."Sky was taken aback. "How did you know about that?"Louis stroked Sky's head affectionately, as if no one else was around. "You told me yourself. Did you forget?"As Sky checked her memory, Emily clapped her hands once. She exclaimed, "Oh, I remember! When we

    "I can't imagine the company's fate in his hands. I hope he doesn't make too much of a mess," Louis muttered.Emily snorted at his remark. "Hey, Louis," she patted his arm. "You always call me a workaholic, but so are you. Can't you just take your mind off the company for one day? You should focus on your own mission now."Louis pursed his lips. "I'm not a workaholic, Emily. Just thinking about responsibility. I'm a father now. I have to be a role model for my daughter."Everyone was wide-eyed at his words. They fell silent, their gazes wandered at Louis, Sky, and the little girl's expressions."Louis? Has she ...."Louis nodded to Emily. "Yes, she knows. Summer already knows that she is my daughter.""Yes, I already know! And Uncle Louis just proposed to Mommy with a beautiful wooden ring. They will be married soon, and then, I can call him daddy!"

    "Sky and Summer look so happy," Alice whispered as she leaned on her husband's shoulder.Edmund put his arm around her waist lovingly. "Yes. We should have let them be together a long time ago.""We?" Alice raised an eyebrow.Edmund snorted sadly. "Okay. Just me. I shouldn't have stopped Sky from approaching Louis a long time ago."Alice smiled faintly. "Relax, Ed. There's nothing to regret anymore. Everything is fine now. We just have to enjoy it.""Yes. We just have to enjoy it."At that moment, three cars entered the yard. Seeing those unknown vehicles, Edmund and Alice exchanged glances. Their smiles faded. Louis, Sky, and Summer also stopped laughing."Who is it, Mommy?" Summer whispered, nervously."I don't know, Honey."They waited with pounding hearts for who would get off. Suddenly, Summe

    Summer shrugged innocently. "That's because you're too slow, Mommy. Just say yes! Uncle Louis' knees will hurt if they bend too long. Besides, my heart is already sweating a lot. I can't bear the itch any longer!"Everyone chuckled hearing Summer's chatter. The way she scratched her chest was adorable too.Not wanting her daughter nag again, Sky looked at Louis. She couldn't hide her smile anymore.Yesterday, when Louis proposed to her, she was already on cloud nine. Now, with such a more romantic proposal? Her heart had soared to the moon!"Yes, let's marry and be one family," Sky answered with a smile.Getting the heart-pounding answer, Louis sighed in relief."Thank you, My Beautiful Adventurer," he replied, making Sky's cheeks blush. It was the first time he had called her by such an affectionate nickname.Then, Louis opened the woode
