Omega came out of his tent. "There's nothing here."

"What about the stuff?" Louis inquired with a serious expression.

"It's safe. I didn't bring any important stuff here. It's all in the car."

Alice, who had just finished checking her tent, reported the same thing. "I don't think it was a robbery. Nothing was missing."

Edmund's brows were furrowed even more. "Then what was he after? Did he leave any clues?" He entered the tent, checking among Summer's belongings.

From the tent door, Louis' eyes fell on a small piece of paper that had been crumpled into a ball. He picked it up. Turned out, it was an ATM receipt for a withdrawal balance. The final amount was quite large.

"It seems like someone got paid for this task," he concluded with a serious expression.

Alice gasped and covered her mouth. "You mean someone wants to hurt Summer? For what

    "You created the abyss yourself, Kendrick!" Louis replied firmly. "Don't blame me for what has happened to you. Once again you disturb me and my family, I will make you stay at the bottom of the abyss forever."Kendrick laughed evilly. "You're still arrogant, apparently. Alright. I accept your challenge. Let's see who reaches the bottom first. Me or that little girl?"Louis' eyes immediately widened. Red lines began to circle his pupils."This is our business. Why did you involve another person? She's innocent! She has nothing to do with this matter!"Hearing Louis' anger, Kendrick's laughter grew louder. "Isn't she the root of our problems? If she hadn't ruined your proposal, the truth wouldn't have been revealed. We're still friends and I would still live in peace.""We were never friends! I never have a friend as cruel as you!""Yes, you're right. I am ind

    Seeing her mother's panic, Summer stopped peeking from behind the wall. She revealed herself, asking, "Mommy, what's wrong?"While shifting the couch to block the door, Sky shouted, "The bad guys are coming, Honey. Get in your room and lock the door. Call the emergency number!"Suddenly, a thud was heard. The door vibrated, pushed by something big. Worried that the lock would be broken, Sky held it with all her might. "Honey, hurry up!"Summer blinked in confusion. Instead of obeying, she climbed onto the couch and helped her mother to hold the door with her tiny hands. "What about Mommy?""Mommy will be fine. Call for help now!"Suddenly, a thud came from the window. Someone was apparently pounding the shatterproof glass with a gun.Knowing that time was running out, Sky shouted again, "Honey!"Summer finally ran away. She went into her

    “Stop! You can’t marry that girl, Mr. Louis Harper. I will never give you my blessing!”Everyone gasped at that cute, high-pitched voice, and Louis was no exception.He was kneeling on the floor, holding a ring box. When he turned his head, his jaw dropped. His eyes widened, not believing what they had caught.A little girl was putting her hands on her hips at the entrance of the restaurant!Her bear jumpsuit made her look super cute, especially with her puffed-up chubby cheeks and forced-to-look-scary eyes.“Gosh! Who is that little girl? How dare she ruin my proposal?” Louis thought, furious.A week ago ....“I’m not sure about telling you this, but I think you deserve to know. Louis is planning to propose to his girlfriend this Saturday. Maybe there’s something you want to tell him. Do it before it’s too late.”Sky tried to forget that information many times. However, her best friend's voice kept echoing.The shadow of Louis, her first love, also refused to leave her mind. The long

    Now, at the restaurant where Louis proposed to his lover ....The room was filled with whispers. The waitresses, the guards, even the lurking paparazzi—were all busy with their own assumptions. Their eyes were fixed on Summer.“Oh my! Look at that little girl! Doesn’t she look like Mr. Harper?”“Not Mr. Harper, but his twin. She looks exactly like young Emily. Only their hairs are different. That little girl has curly hair! And look! Even her eyes are the same. They're gray too!”“But Emily and Louis are twins. If the girl looks like little Emily, then she looks like Louis too. Could she be the child from the scandal five years ago? But why did she only show up now? Where has she been all this time? And where is her mother? Why did she come here alone?”Hearing those questions, Grace Evans' breath grew shorter. Even though she tried to hold her annoyance in, her shoulders kept moving up and down.“Louis, explain to me. What is happening? Who is that little girl?” she asked in a thin,

    “Sir, can you smile a little? You look more handsome when you smile. Aaakh!”Summer finally got away from Louis. She was wincing in pain as she held the hand that was twisting her ear.“Sir, why are you pulling my ear? I am a good kid,” she said with her head tilted.“This is the consequence of you disobeying my warning. Call your mother now!”“Mommy's not there. I came here alone.”“I won't let go of your ear until your mother comes here.”The little girl frowned even deeper, her eyes filled with tears. “Then just keep pinching until my ear falls off. Mommy won’t come. She doesn’t even know I’m here.”Louis' eyebrows knitted together suspiciously. He glanced away, trying to get a clue. That's when his eyes caught the presence of paparazzi at the window.“You guys,” he glanced around at the guards, “catch those rats! Delete all the photos on their cameras. I don’t want this incident to spread. And you .…”As the guards moved out, Louis stared at Summer with an unfriendly expression. H

    The little girl chuckled. “Nobody, Sir. It was my own idea.”Louis’ eyes widened. He was surprised that the toddler seemed honest.“It's you who wanted to ruin my proposal? A four-year-old girl? Not anyone else?” he sighed in disbelief.Summer pouted her lips. “Yes, Sir. Is it hard to believe me?”“How did that come to your mind?” Louis asked curiously.“Because I couldn’t stand seeing Mommy lonely and sad.” Summer's face dimmed. “Since the news about you and Grace Evans spread, Mommy had been a bit gloomy. I thought it broke her heart. But Mommy deserves to be happy like other women. Everyone deserves to be happy! That's why I want her to have a husband too. It's you!”Louis fell silent for a moment. His brain was busy processing. “Who is your mother?” he asked doubtfully.Summer blinked. Her lips pursed. “Do you still not know who Mommy is? People say I look exactly like her. You should remember right away. Besides, you two used to be so close.”Louis was stunned. The image of Sky H

    While the officer was busy tracking Summer, Sky's phone rang. Seeing an unknown number contacting her via video call, her breath hitched.Could it be a kidnapper asking for compensation? Or was it a good person who accidentally found her daughter?Sky answered the call with a pounding heart. However, when she saw the face that appeared, her anxiety vanished. Her eyes widened, reflecting astonishment and surprise.“L-Louis?”Louis had actually frowned before. He was ready to vent his anger at Sky, demanding accountability for the mess her daughter had caused.However, when the beautiful face covered in tears received his video call, his anger faded. A feeling of pity and longing arose from the corner of his heart.“Sky,” his tongue was numb at the name.Sky blinked. Looking down, she wiped her eyes. She didn't want Louis to know about her anxiety. She wasn't ready for her status as a single mother to be revealed.“Hi, Louis. Long time no see. What’s up? Shouldn’t you be happy with your

    “Spending time with Mommy is not a waste, Sir. Mommy is a wonderful woman. You can talk to her about anything. She knows everything! If you two are talking, I promise not to disturb you. I can play in the yard by myself. Besides,” Summer took a deep breath.“Didn’t you two use to be best friends? I heard that you used to play and go on vacation together. I think Mommy would be very happy if you guys could relive the good times. Even now, Mommy still talks about it often. She really enjoyed your friendship. With Aunt Emily and Uncle Russell too!”Louis fell silent for a moment. The times Summer had mentioned flashed through his mind. But in the blink of an eye, he buried them again.“Sorry, I don’t have time for that. Besides, it’s all been a long time. Even if I did it again, nothing would change. I still can’t marry your mother. The one I love now is Grace Evans. She’s the one I’m going to marry.”Summer pouted. Her eyes were suddenly thick and shadowy. Before she could express her an

    Edmund's face turned sullen again. He wondered why his granddaughter had fallen for Louis so easily. In fact, he thought Freddy was more charming.As a result, he didn't talk much for the rest of the night. Even when they returned to the camping area, he just took Alice into the tent. He was disappointed because, up until that moment, Freddy still hadn't managed to attract Summer's attention."What else should I do? How can I make Sky and Summer like Freddy more?" he thought as he stretched out his sleeping bag.While Edmund was seriously contemplating, suddenly, Summer's scream was heard. As fast as lightning, he and Alice crawled out.Sky immediately let go of the chair she was setting up. She ran to Summer's tent too, followed by Louis and Freddy."Honey, what's wrong?" Sky asked spontaneously from the tent door.It turned out that Summer had been standing

    "In two months, it will be autumn here. The air is too cold for Summer and Sky to wear beautiful dresses. They'll freeze. Besides, they prefer to be warm," Freddy stated.Louis' face turned stiff. "Do you think I will let them get cold? I can build a building with glass walls and a roof with a heating system. They can still dance in cool clothes while watching the aurora with me."Hearing the argument, Summer frowned. "I don't think you need to do that, Uncle Louis. That building must be very expensive. You'd be better off saving the money for something more useful. Besides ...."Summer moved to Sky's lap. "Mommy and I don't mind dancing outside. We can wear coats over our pretty dresses. We'll stay warm and still look stunning. Isn't that right, Mommy?"Sky smiled a little. She was proud of her daughter. "That's right, Honey. You're beautiful no matter what you wear.""Mommy too

    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

    "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

    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

    "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
