As Sky massaged her temple, Edmund lowered his voice, "Wake up, Sky. Louis doesn't deserve your love and attention! I will never let him get close to Summer and you!"

"Papa," Sky said weakly, "we've discussed this before. Please don't repeat it. I don't want to argue with you."

"There's nothing to argue about, Sky. You did make a fatal mistake. It's only right that you take responsibility and fix the situation. Therefore, before the whole world insults you, take Summer home! You can't possibly risk her future, right? I don't want my granddaughter to be called a mistress' daughter," Edmund said firmly.

Sky closed her eyes. Her head was throbbing from the pressure from her father.

"What did you hear, Papa? Please explain it slowly so I understand," she said in a low voice.

"Haven't you seen the news? Your intimate photos have shocked the public. Many people are cursing you. They call you by inappropriate words. Therefore," Edmund tried to pump patience into his lungs.

    "In a condition like this, it's not safe for you to stay in a hotel. You could be attacked by paparazzi or reporters. People, who are incited by the news, can also be a threat. Therefore, stay at my penthouse. You are safer there," Louis shrugged, as if it was not a big deal to him.Sky turned stiff. She knew Louis got a point, but it didn't mean that her father's logic was wrong."Then what about Grace? What about people's misunderstandings? They might be even more convinced that I'm your mistress if they find out you brought us to the penthouse."Louis fell silent, his breathing turned heavy. Only after gripping the steering wheel more tightly did he say, "That's my business. You don't need to worry about that. What's important now is that you guys stay safe. I'll clear up the misunderstanding after you guys get home tomorrow."Summer cheered, "Thank you so much, Uncle Louis! You're so wise! If only you could be my daddy, I'd be the luckiest kid in the world." She danced on her seat,

    "Miss Evans?" Sky gasped right after Grace slapped Louis. The blow was quite hard. The sound echoed to every corner of the room.Summer was also surprised. After one blink, her eyebrows furrowed, her cheeks puffed up. With all her strength, she stepped forward, pushing Grace away."Why did you do that, Miss Evans? Don't you feel sorry for Uncle Louis? He must be in pain. Look! His cheek is all red from what you did!" Summer scolded while putting her hands on her hips.Louis was stunned at the toddler's bravery. Meanwhile, Sky quickly pulled her back, and Grace snorted."You dare to criticize me? Did you think I would slap my fiancé if he wasn't tempted by your mother?" the woman in the black dress whispered with a cold expression and full of emphasis.A second later, she pointed her finger at Sky. "Your mother is the one who should be blamed! She wanted to take Louis away from me. If only she had shame, my relationship with Louis wouldn't be broken. We would still be fine, and I wouldn

    Louis took a deep breath. His eyes closed for a moment. He felt very tired."It's not what you think, Ace," Louis tried to clear up the situation. He explained, convincingly, "Summer played the role of a cowboy sheriff. She arrested me and Sky, who she considered criminals. But somehow, the key to her handcuffs was lost. We had to wait until the ranch owner returned because he was the only one who had the spare key."Unfortunately, Grace kept staring at him coldly. Anger was still too thick in her blood."I don't need your ridiculous excuses, Louis. I need a reasonable explanation and accountability," she said loudly. "Now answer my question. Do you love Sky?"Louis froze. His mouth was agape, but he was unable to utter an answer.Seeing the response, Grace sighed in disbelief. Shaking her head, she took a step back from Louis."You are so cruel, Louis. So cruel!" Grace whispered, hurting his heart. "Do you remember how you used to coax me? I wasn't interested in a relationship at that

    Louis' smile disappeared. He thought Grace would be under control after getting his explanation, but as it turned out, he was wrong."Do you doubt my loyalty?" he sighed in disbelief."No," Grace replied quickly. "But there's some anxiety left in my heart. It will never go away until you prove that you care more about me than them.""Can't you let them stay here? They're not sleeping in my bedroom, Ace. Besides, it's already late. Poor Summer. She's been tired today. Just let her rest. Besides, reporters and paparazzi are still after them. Summer and Sky aren't safe out there," Louis said, hoping for understanding.However, Grace stood her ground. "Do you like people talking about you and that single mom? Do you want people pitying me because they think you're cheating on me?" She raised an eyebrow, intimidating."No—""Good! It's only natural that you care about my feelings. Therefore, you should stop caring too much about them. You have a lot of employees, Louis. Just send some to ta

    Summer took a deep breath. Her shoulders were dropped, her lips pursed."But his promises to you have nothing to do with his promise to me. Even though Uncle Louis plays with me tonight, he will still marry you. I won't force him to marry Mommy again. So please, let us spend time together tonight. It won't be long. Just this night," she said pleadingly."Sorry. I know you're still young, but can you think more maturely? If Louis keeps his promise to you, he has the potential to break his promises to me. That's not fair to me," Grace said firmly."But—""No buts," Grace snapped. "You've caused enough trouble. I don't want any more gossip about my relationship with Louis. People need to know that we're fine. Therefore, you and your mother should prepare to leave now."Summer pouted. Tears finally rolled down her cheeks, but she quickly wiped them."But I don't want to be separated from Uncle Louis yet. I still want to be with him," Summer began to sob.Seeing that, Louis' heart ached ev

    In the bathroom, Sky was pensive. She felt sorry for Summer. The little girl was usually excited every time she went into the bathroom. But now, she rubbed her hands lazily."Am I not a good mother? I could have fought for Summer's right to be close to her father. But instead, I chose to remain silent. Look at her now. So dim and fragile," Sky mused with a faint sigh. Her eyes, that were fixed on her daughter, slowly began to wander."Should I tell Louis the truth? He might choose Summer over Grace. Summer will definitely be happy. But ...."Sky blinked slowly. Her thoughts were focused on what she had just gone through."Louis had never submitted to anyone, but why did he become so obedient just now? Whatever Grace said, he would follow. Could it be that Louis really loved her? Can he leave that girl for Summer?"The longer Sky reviewed the couple's interactions, the tighter her throat became. As she found it difficult to breathe, the air that came out of her mouth sounded rough."How

    Sky's blood boiled even more. Clenching her fists, she leaned forward. "You keep calling us the ones who ruined your relationship. Are you sure about that? Somehow, I think you haven't thought it through carefully enough."Grace flinched. She had no idea that Sky would say something like that. "What do you mean?"Raising the corner of her lips, Sky whispered, "It wasn't me or my daughter who broke your relationship, but your attitude.""You!" Grace stood up and pointed her finger. "How dare you insult me with your dirty mouth!"Sky stepped back, taking a safe distance. She shrugged, "I'm just speaking the truth. My daughter is still young, but you are intimidated by her. You even consider her an enemy."With a lopsided smile, Sky continued, "If your attitude is good, you should have given her understanding and forgiveness. You and Louis could have found a solution together, instead of fighting. You could just think of it as a small test for you, but you failed."Grace began to grit her

    Summer nodded firmly. "Yes, now. I don't want to see Grace anymore. She's so annoying. Let's get our things in the room, then get out of here.""Are you sure? You haven't said goodbye to Louis," Sky was still thinking about her daughter's feelings.The toddler's anger immediately faded. Her face became sad, her eyes filled with tears again.Before the little girl could answer, Grace interrupted, "What are you waiting for? Get out of here! You don't plan to report to Louis or seduce him again, right? You said you were good girls?" She looked at Sky with an intimidating look in her eyes.Summer bit her lip. Her eyes were so red. It was clear that she was holding back her tears.Although she was not willing to part with Louis, she hated it even more when Grace looked at Sky with that sharp glare."Mommy, let's get out of here," she decided.Sky sighed in pity. She felt guilty for putting Summer in a difficult position that forced her to act maturely."Okay, Honey. Let's get out of here."

    "Wow! Look at my girl! Isn't she charming?" Draco whispered to his co-worker.Angelica watched Sky with an unhappy face. She realized that it wasn't just Draco who was captivated by Sky, but almost all the visitors."Tch, what charm? I actually feel sorry for that green dress. It should look magnificent on my body," Angelica said, sarcastically. "And that handsome and perfect guy, he should be holding my hand."Draco snorted in disgust. In his heart, he cursed Angelica for daring to compare herself to Sky."I know you can't wait to touch that guy, but please hold on. Don't do anything until I give you the signal. Remember. We are carrying out my plan right now."Angelica sighed lazily. "Okay. How long do I have to wait?""Just let them enjoy their meal. Wait until they are off guard."Angelica nodded in understanding. Meanwhile, Sky was chuckling. Louis had just treated her like a noble."Welcome to this very humble ballroom, Mrs. Harper," Louis said while bowing like a servant to the

    Knowing his wife's dirty thoughts, Louis laughed faintly. "I want us to get ready for dinner. I'm getting hungry. If we have time, let's turn on our phones for a while. I suddenly miss our little princess."Sky chuckled. "Good idea, Louis. Let's go to our cabin!"Louis and Sky left the lido deck with warm hearts. They didn't realize that Draco was smiling lopsidedly at them."Wait for me, Sky. I'll take you away from him tonight," he thought impatiently.A few moments later, Louis and Sky had turned on their phones. Finding deleted messages from Summer, worry arose in their hearts."Did Summer contact you?" Sky asked while glancing at the phone next to her."Yeah, she sent me several messages, but they've been deleted. I wonder what she sent."Sky shrugged. "Let's call her."Soon afterward, Summer answered in her cute voice. "Hello, Mommy? Why did you call me? Shouldn't you be having fun with Daddy?""Hi, Honey. We suddenly miss you. What are you doing?" Sky asked, glancing at Louis w

    Draco laughed faintly. "Sorry, Mr. Harper. I didn't mean to seduce your wife. I just wanted to say hello to an old friend. So, do you remember me, Sky? I'm Draco. You guided me when we were teenagers."Sky froze. Her eyes narrowed, busy searching for that memory."Still don't remember?" Draco asked, raising an eyebrow. "I was on a tour around Europe. You worked as a guide. Back then, you were the youngest guide at the HealingHills Travel Company. That fact amazed me. I even asked for your picture and autograph."Sky shook her head faintly. "Sorry. I took too many pictures and autographs.""We met again a few years later, by chance, in Canada. Summer was still very young at that time," Draco added a hint.Louis' eyebrows were knitted even more tightly. "You know Summer?" he muttered in an unamused tone.Draco nodded lightly. "Yes, she was a cute little baby. Even though she couldn't talk yet, I could already feel her chatty aura. How is she? Has she grown into a cheerful and resourcefu

    Angelica's expression turned serious. She looked at her phone. The call she received turned out to be on SIM-card 2."Where did you get my number?" she asked, no longer looking down on the screen."That's a secret, Ma'am. We can't tell our secret procedures to just anyone," the boy said.Angelica was offended. "Ma'am, you said? You said you're professionals, but why didn't you check my background properly? I'm not married yet. Call me Miss!""That's because you've been involved with many men. You're not a pure girl anymore. You don't deserve to be called Miss. And now that I think about it, I don't think you deserve to be called Mrs. or Ma'am too. They're usually used for adult women who have one husband. You don't have one husband, but many men," River explained."Yes, River is right. They are terms for women with diginty.""Dignity, Summer," River whispered.Summer gasped. "Yes, I mean dignity."Angelica was stunned to hear that. She didn't care about the mistake Summer had just mad

    "We were lucky to survive," Sky recalled, shaking her head vaguely. "If not, I can't imagine what our fate would be like.""Looking back, I think I owe you, Sky. If only you hadn't held my hand, I might not have survived," Louis rubbed his wife's hand.Instead of being touched, Sky sneered. "You were faster than me, Louis. I held your hand so you could pull me. In conclusion, it wasn't me who saved you, but you who saved me."Louis chuckled at the honesty. "Trust me. I couldn't have run that fast if you hadn't held my hand. You gave me strength and motivation, so I could be a hero for you."Sky smiled. Not only because of the sweet kiss she had just received on the back of her hand, but also because Louis was still not tired of praising her."Okay. Let's write that sweet memory here," Sky tapped the book on her lap with a pen. "Apart from that, which other adventure was the most memorable?"Louis pursed his lips. His head tilted up to check his memory. Before he could find an answer,

    Louis nodded without hesitation. "Of course. My heart only wants to accept your presence, while my hands only want to touch your skin. Why choose a woman who isn't even on the list of my choices?"Angelica unconsciously gritted her teeth. She was irritated because Louis rejected her so openly. However, she didn't want to ruin her dignity. She straightened up."If you want to spend time alone together, fine. Maybe we can talk another time."She forced a smile, but Louis ignored her. She had no choice but to go away with an annoyed expression."Has she gone?" Louis whispered while twitching his eyebrows.Sky nodded. "Yes. She left the room while stomping her feet."Louis sighed in relief. He could finally lean back and look in all directions. Sky was tickled by his behavior."What's wrong, Louis? Your neck seems sore. Is it because the temp

    Louis glanced towards the door. Finding Angelica, he whispered to Sky, "It seems like she's seriously targeting me."Sky's face became even more sullen. Her breathing sounded heavy. "You should have rented the lounge for us," she grumbled softly."Should I do that?"Sky blinked. She didn't realize that she had just voiced her annoyance. "Do what?""Rent this lounge for the two of us?"Sky waved her hand. "No. For what? That's excessive. Other passengers also have the right to enjoy the facilities here.""If it can make you comfortable, I don't mind. Besides, I don't think it's excessive," Louis shrugged, as if he had no burden.Not wanting her husband to waste more, Sky quickly grabbed his hand. "It's okay, Louis. She is a nobody. How could I let her rule my heart and mind? She can't ruin our moment.""But you were grumbling. Your heart and mind are clearly disturbed by her presence," Louis added, raising an eyebrow. "You're jealous, right?"Sky let out a laugh. "No, Louis. I can't be

    "Because I'm afraid Summer will see and follow in your footsteps," Louis answered without thinking.Sky gasped. "Are you teasing me again? Are you openly saying that my action in preparing this book was wrong?"Hearing the misunderstanding, Louis' eyes widened. "No, it's not like that. Please don't misunderstand. I don't blame you. Like I said, I'm glad you prepared such a sweet surprise for me. It's just ...."Louis took a deep breath. "I hope Summer will love a brilliant guy who loves her with all his heart and has courage. That way, she won't need to prepare a surprise gift like you. I want her to receive much greater love from the guy she chooses without a long wait. You understand what I mean, right?"Sky was stunned. She thought for a moment. After a blink, she smiled wryly. "You're right. Summer shouldn't follow me. She should avoid misunderstandings and suffering. I hope her love journey goes

    "Did you forget? We're heading to the South Pole. There are no time zones there. Ghosts can show their presence at any time," Draco said, not looking like he was joking at all.Angelica sighed tiredly. "Can you just focus on our mission?""I'm focused.""What's the proof?" Angelica asked in a challenging tone.Draco thought for a moment. "I've made a plan to approach Sky. Tonight, she and I will be in the same bed.""What's your plan?"A lopsided smile appeared on Draco's sly face. "I'll let you know if you're willing to accompany me in bed."Angelica snorted in disgust. "You think my price is that low? My target is Louis Harper. If I can get a big prize, why would I be aiming for crumbs?""You talk as if you're sure to get him," Draco muttered.Angelica didn't like his tone. "You'll regret underestimating me. This charm of mine," she flipped her hair, "no one can resist it."Draco snorted in amusement. "Please don't be too confident. You'll get depressed if your mission fails.""You'
