"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!" Summer re
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
"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
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.
"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
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,
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
"Why ask me to clean your ears, Louis? Are you Summer? No. You're an adult," Sky tried not to sound awkward.Louis smiled mischievously. "You're my future wife. Isn't it natural for you to clean my ears? I can do it for you too. Like when we were little."Sky blinked awkwardly. Both of her hands gripped the photo album on her lap more tightly. "I'm an adult, Louis. I can do it myself. I don't need your help."Taking a deep breath, Louis sat down on the couch. There was still some distance between them, but Sky felt the air heat up for some reason."Are you sure? Even though we're adults, we still can't see our own earholes. You said that our ears should be cleaned by someone else, remember?" Louis' voice sounded ticklish.Sky glanced away. She was afraid that her nervousness would get even bigger. "I was a child when I said that, Louis."Louis raised the corners of his lips slightly. He took the album from Sky's hand, then put his head on her lap without warning.Sky's eyes almost popp
Several years ago, in the Savannah of Doro Ncanga, Sumbawa, Indonesia ....Sky was sitting on top of a campervan. Her head was tilted up to the sky. Her arms were hugging her knees, protecting herself from the wind."Hey, what are you doing there?"Sky looked at the van ladder. Knowing it was Louis, the corners of her lips lifted slightly. "Hey, why aren't you sleeping yet?" she shifted slightly, making room for Louis."I should be the one asking that. Why did you suddenly climb onto the campervan in the middle of the night?" Louis whispered as he sat beside Sky. "You can't sleep?"Sky nodded. "Maybe because this place is too beautiful, it's a shame if I don't enjoy it to the fullest.""We've been here for hours, Sky. We've seen the field of yellowish grass, the beautiful sunset, and the clear night sky. What else do you want to enjoy? You should be resting."Receiving a touch from Louis' elbow, Sky smiled. "I don't know. I feel like something is missing. Maybe because the sky here is
