Summer's smile widened again. "Let's find a ride that we can both do. Oh, how about that train?"

"That's called a roller coaster, Little Human. Too bad you're not old enough."

"What about that one?" Summer pointed to the chairs hanging by ropes on a merry-go-round.

"You're not old enough for a swinger either."

Summer pouted. "Then, what's allowed for me?"

Louis pointed his finger. "The cars over there. You can choose any car you like."

"Can we ride that together?"

Louis pursed his lips. "I think so."

Summer's eyes lit up again. "Then, let's go there!"

Summer walked beside Louis. The other children were still watching her. Realizing that, Summer smiled proudly.

But then, the curve of her lips shrank. All the children she saw were holding hands with their respective parents. She was the only one who was walking without being held.

While furrowing her eyebrows, Summer glanced at Louis' hand. Their distance was close enough for her to reach it.

    "Oh no!" Louis shouted in his heart. His breath grew shorter and shorter. "What should I tell Sky? Should I admit that I neglected to look after her daughter? But there's no way I can say that Summer is missing because of my carelessness!" While staring at his phone, Louis considered. His thumbs went up and down, following his hesitation. Even though his phone stopped vibrating, he still hadn't made a decision. His body kept freezing until finally, he blinked. "Since when did I become such a coward?" With a sigh, Louis broke his stiffness. "I am Louis Harper. I never neglect my responsibilities. I promised Sky to look after Summer. That means I have to ensure her safety and security." After keeping his phone in his pocket, Louis straightened up his back. He took a deep breath, trying to clear his mind. "How can I find Summer now? Should I make a report and reveal my identity? If so, it would be useless for me to paint my face like this." Suddenly, Louis gasped. He rem

    "Let's forget about Grace. Today, I am your father, and you are my daughter. Let's do fun things together," Louis sounded convincing. "Like making cotton candy together? Eating ice cream? And walking hand in hand?" Summer's eyebrows lifted in hope. Louis smiled sweetly and nodded. "Yes. Let's do what a father and daughter usually do." Laughter finally escaped Summer. Her face looked cheerful even though tears were still pooling on her eyes. "That sounds fun, Uncle Louis! If only we had done it since morning, this would have been the most memorable and fun day of my life." Summer jumped a little while giving two thumbs up. Louis could only smile sadly. "I'm sorry I failed to make today the best day for you." "It doesn't matter, Uncle Louis. We still have one night. Let's spend it together! Let's have fun! When we get home, we'll brush our teeth and wash our faces together. After changing clothes, you can read me a book. Then, we can talk until we fall asleep! We hav

    "Okay, do whatever you want to pose like. I'll give you three chances," Louis said indifferently. "Does it mean I can use the first pose?" Summer's eyes were perfectly round. Right after Louis nodded, Summer cheered happily. She pinched her chin again, smiling sweetly at the camera. "Come on, Uncle Louis. Take a picture! We'll be at the top soon." Louis did what she said. After the first picture was taken, Summer suddenly stood up on the chair and put her arms around Louis' neck. "Hey? What are you doing?" Louis leaned away a little. However, Summer had already stuck to his shoulder. "Posing. Is this not okay? Are you afraid Grace will be angry again? But you promised to be my father tonight. A father and daughter usually pose like this when taking pictures," Summer said with knitted eyebrows. She was worried that Louis would change his mind again. Seeing the wrinkled face, Louis sighed in resignation. "It's not like that. I was just surprised because you suddenly

    Looking at Summer's tired face, Louis smiled wryly. He whispered, "Summer, we've arrived. Wake up." Louis kept his promise. He patted her shoulder several times. However, the little girl still didn't wake up. "Summer?" Louis shook her arm. Instead of opening her eyes, Summer's hand fell down. The stuffed tiger had now completely slipped out of her embrace. "Don't you want to spend time with me anymore? You won't be here tomorrow," Louis asked, testing. Still, Summer didn't answer. Louis sighed in resignation. He could imagine how angry and disappointed the toddler would be when she woke up the next morning. "Please don't hate me, Summer. I tried to wake you up, but you didn't want to wake up. Maybe we weren't meant to play together any longer." In silence, Louis looked at Summer's little face. For some reason, sadness arose in his heart. "And please don't miss me too much. Your mother will be confused about how to entertain you, and so will I. We can't be close

    Louis whispered, "You know what? Summer planned a lot of things tonight, but we failed to do it because she was already asleep. She would definitely be mad and look for me when she woke up. If you take her away tonight, I can't imagine how loud she would cry. I'm sure she would throw a tantrum." Sky blinked in surprise. Louis had only met Summer for two days, but why did he seem to know her so well? That fact made Sky even more restless. "Yes, she would throw a tantrum, but I can handle her. Just leave her to me." Sky tried to grab Summer. She had managed to put her hands under her armpits. However, when she was about to exert her strength, Louis grabbed her left wrist. Receiving the unexpected touch, Sky gasped. Her eyes rounded, her heart beating erratically. Something flashed quickly in her vision. Before she sank into reverie, she quickly blinked. "Louis?" Her lungs, that had been paralyzed, were now forced to work again. "Why are you holding me? Let go! Summer and I

    Louis snorted in disbelief. Gritting his teeth, he grasped Omega's shoulder. "If you don't want my relationship with Grace to be ruined, watch your mouth. Sky and I have been friends for a long time. She's like a little sister to me. So, don't spread rumors. Got it?" he spoke in a voice that could make everyone shudder. The guard nodded firmly. "Got it, Sir." "Good." Louis patted his arm. "Now, tell that warning to the others. Don't gossip about me anymore." The guard repeated his head motion. "Yes, Sir." As soon as Omega left, Louis shoved his hands into his pockets. His gaze hung, his memory drawn to five years ago. However, after a moment of silence, he shook his head firmly. "No. Sky has nothing to do with that scandal. How could Summer be my daughter? Why do people like to assume and gossip so much?" Louis grumbled in annoyance. After clicking his tongue, he walked away. He didn't want to think about it anymore. Meanwhile, Sky leaned with a sad look behind the

    Sky's eyelids heated up again, but this time, she had difficulty holding her emotions back. Not wanting Louis to see her tears, she lowered her head deeper. Getting such a silent response, Louis whispered, "Did you do it consensually? It was ... a one-night stand?" Sky closed her eyes with a very sore heart. She wanted to deny it, to tell what really happened. However, when she raised her head, she answered, "Yes, we did it because we liked each other. But then, I realized that our goals were different. That's why we parted ways." Louis sighed in disbelief. His eyes were red. There was pain in his heart, but he ignored it. The past could not be changed. It was useless to explain. He'd rather think about the present. "Did he know you're pregnant with Summer?" Sky shook her head. "He doesn't need to know. He's happy with his life right now. I don't want to bother him. Besides, Summer and I are fine. We're happy, and it's okay to be alone." "Are you sure Summer thinks th

    Sky sighed tiredly. "He's the same age as you." Louis widened his eyes. "The same age as me? Do I know him?" "Can you stop asking?" Sky frowned. She started to feel uncomfortable. "So I know him? Otherwise, you wouldn't react like this. Is he my friend? If you don't want to tell me his name, just tell me his hometown," Louis insisted, making Sky rub her temples. Not wanting to answer, Sky quickly finished her soup. She got up from her chair. "My dinner is finished. Thank you for this delicious meal. Now I want to rest. Good night, Mister Nosy." "Wait a minute, Sky. Our conversation isn't over yet. You haven't answered the last question. Where is he from?" Sky kept walking while waving her hand. "Good night, Louis." When her back disappeared, Louis' expression turned serious. He took his phone out of his pocket, calling his cousin. "Orion, can you help me? Please investigate what happened to Sky five years ago. Why did she miss my graduation, where she was, and w

    "What did you prepare in the bathroom? Duck floats and water guns? Do you want to repeat our childhood fun?" Sky teased.Louis snorted in amusement. "Unfortunately not. We're on honeymoon. I prepared something more romantic.""Not candles and scattered rose petals, right?" Sky joked, making Louis shake his head in amusement."How about you check the answer yourself?" Louis led Sky to a door."Am I wrong? If not flower petals, then what? Is it—"Suddenly, a phone rang again. Louis immediately took a deep breath. Sky took her phone while chuckling."Sorry, Louis. I didn't want to break our agreement, but I had to pick up the phone. It might be important," Sky said as she checked the call. "Oh, it's my father. Hello, Papa."Sky chatted with her father for a while. She occasionally glanced at Louis. Her husband's expression tickled her

    A few moments ago, Louis and Sky had got on the ship. They immediately walked towards their cabin. Along the way, Sky kept chattering about everything she saw. Louis listened happily. He felt like they were going back to their childhood."Louis, look! Those are our suitcases!" Laughing, Sky quickened her pace.Since his hand was in her grasp, Louis followed with a smile."Finally, we're here. I can't wait to see our room. Should we record this moment? Summer would be happy to see it too," Sky said with sparkling eyes.Louis always loved to see them. He smiled more sweetly. "Sky, how about we just enjoy the moment to the fullest? Forget about other people. Just focus on us.""But Summer is our daughter," Sky added with high-arched eyebrows. The confusion on her face made Louis laugh.Her head shaking did not change at all. She was still like a cheerful 4-year-old girl with amusing expressions and gestures."Do you remember what Summer told us?" Louis asked in a low tone. "Just focus on

    "She tried to get close to Daddy!" Summer finally revealed the truth. She told Orion about the video call this morning. Orion listened intently."So, you just saw her this morning through a video call? You didn't know who she was, or even her name?" Orion concluded, pointing at the phone in Summer's hand.When the kids nodded, Orion furrowed his eyebrows. "Then how did you find her social media? Didn't you have any information about her?""We have a picture of her face!"Summer swiped the screen. Seeing the picture of the woman at the harbor, Orion's eyes widened. "Did you screenshot the video call from your parents?"Summer nodded. "Yes, I needed to find out who she was," she tapped the screen."We did a face search on the internet. In just a few moments, we managed to find her social media accounts!" River added, completing the report.

    "Regardless of how old he is, River is right," Briony said, drawing attention. "Such women are indeed disturbing, and they are everywhere. My parents were disturbed by them, even when they were on their honeymoon."Louis' eyes narrowed. His head nodded. "I remember that story. Uncle Philip and Aunt Barbara often told me and Emily about it. It was like a reminder for them to be more careful. And actually, my father and mother also had similar experiences.""Are you wary of that kind of woman now?" Sky raised an eyebrow.Louis nodded. "Yes, it's good for us to be careful. But you don't need to worry, Sky. I won't let any woman come close to me. You just enjoy our honeymoon without feeling threatened."Before Sky could answer, Summer said, "Daddy is right! Just enjoy your honeymoon, Mommy. Ignore that woman. If she comes to Daddy, just chase her away. If she still dares to get close, report it to me."Seeing how Summer put on a scary look on her cute face, Sky and Louis laughed in amusem

    Summer chuckled sweetly. "Yes, Daddy. The four of us fell asleep in one tent. But unfortunately, I woke up in the middle of the night. Uncle Brandon used my sleeping bag as a pillow. I couldn't sleep well without it. Luckily, River was kind enough to lend me his sleeping bag. That's why River and I moved to the next tent.""So it's true that you and River slept together?"Summer nodded innocently. "Yes, Daddy. Just like Uncle Brandon and Aunt Briony. They also slept together," she answered innocently."Your aunt slept together with Brandon?" Sky blurted out.Summer nodded. "Yes. Uncle and Auntie slept together.""But nothing happened," Briony interrupted loudly. Summer blinked. "We just slept. We closed our eyes and fell asleep. That's all."Summer looked at Briony with furrowed brows. "What's wrong, Auntie? Why are you so panicked? Did I say something wrong?

    "Are they still sleeping? Why is it so quiet?" Emily whispered to Cayden."Shall we check their tent?" Cayden offered his arm to his beloved wife.Emily smiled sweetly. Holding her husband's arm, she walked to the nearest tent. When she saw who was inside, she was stunned.Summer was hugging River tightly. Maybe she thought it was Toby. She forgot that her favorite plushie was assigned to guard her room while she was camping."Gosh, Cay .... Aren't they so cute?" Emily whispered with sparkling eyes."Yeah, they look like a pair of caterpillars in a cocoon."Suddenly, Emily patted her husband's chest. "Where's your phone? Quickly take a picture of them! Louis and Sky need to see what their daughter is doing.""What did Summer do? She just slept with her friend," Cayden muttered as he did what his wife ordered."Summer is repeating what Sky did with Louis back then. They will definitely be nostalgic when they see this adorable photo," Emily whispered while observing Cayden's snap. Her h

    Suddenly, some popcorn popped out from behind the pan lid again. "River, they fell again!"River bent down again. Before he could reach the popcorns, Brandon had already picked them up and shoved them into his mouth.River and Brandon finally competed to collect popcorn on the grass to attack each other. The others laughed at their sweet fight.That's when Summer ran with a grip full of popcorn. She put what she was carrying into Briony's mouth. When her aunt got hot, she looked for another target. People immediately ran away, except Emily.For a few moments, they all chased each other. The atmosphere felt more exciting and lively. Moreover, they participated in the game prepared by Summer after that.True to her name, the toddler always brought warmth to everyone. Even when it was time to sleep, she still made the atmosphere feel pleasant.Because they were

    Briony blinked. Her eyes were fixed on the round face that was waiting for her forgiveness."You promise not to match me with anyone again?" she asked, making sure.Summer nodded. "Yes. As Uncle Brandon said, you need time to heal your heart. Your sadness can't be immediately gone just by having a partner. I understand that."Briony's eyebrows arched high. "Brandon said that?"Summer nodded. "Therefore, please don't be angry with me anymore, Auntie. I have repented. I will not repeat my mistakes."Briony fell silent for a moment, digesting the situation. Her heart slowly felt warm.However, Summer had misinterpreted her silence. The toddler moved forward again, daring to hug her."Auntie, please accept my apology. I promise I won't be a bad kid again," Summer said in a pleading tone. Her voice was deliberately made hoarse. Her round eyes looked glassy, like a helpless puppy. She hoped that River's strategy would work for her.Seeing such a cute face, it was impossible for Briony not t

    Thinking that Summer was so cute, Brandon stroked her curly hair. "Briony loves you very much, Summer. If you apologize sincerely, she will forgive you.""And promise not to do it again!" River added quickly. "I always say that every time Uncle Brandon gets angry. He always forgives me afterward. The important thing is that my tone sounds sincere, and my face is pitiful. Sometimes, I even shed a few tears so that he feels sorry."Brandon glanced at his nephew. "All this time, you weren't sincere when you apologized? You were just pretending so that I would forgive you?"River chuckled. With a sweet smile, he massaged Brandon's shoulders. "I'm sincere, Uncle. I love you.""We'll talk about that later. Now, help Summer apologize to Briony."River nodded quickly. "Yes, Commander!" Then, he grabbed the little girl's hand."Summer, let's see your aunt!"&nb
