"Wait for me!" Willow exclaimed.…Soon, the three of them found a nearby restaurant for lunch.Surprisingly, Theodore was considerate. He knew that a child's meal was different from an adult's, so he instructed the chef to cook Yasmine's steak well-done and with minimal seasoning."Yasmine, wipe your hands.""They're clean!"Yasmine grinned and made a funny face at Theodore.He patiently cut her steak into small pieces and even wiped her mouth after each bite.As she watched how meticulously he cared for Yasmine, Willow found herself momentarily lost in thought.Maybe he wasn't the ideal husband, but he would make a great father. He probably spent a lot of time taking care of children at home, which explained why Iris often used their child as a shield.After lunch, Yasmine was drawn to the children's play area. A waiter led her away, leaving Willow and Theodore alone at the table."I remember you don't have many relatives, and that your mom raised you and your brother on h

"Oh no, the ice cream is melting!" Yasmine exclaimed in surprise.Willow snapped back to reality and glanced at the ice cream in her hand. She quickly handed it over to Theodore, only to realize he didn't have a free hand to take it."Why don't you put Yasmine down?""No need."Theodore bent down slightly and took a bite from the ice cream in Willow's hand.Willow's face suddenly flushed with self-consciousness. Only then did she notice the curious, somewhat amused stares of the people around them."Can't you just hold it yourself?"Theodore said seriously, "There are too many people around. What if I put Yasmine down and she runs off and gets lost?"Willow had no response to that.Being the clever little girl she was, Yasmine played along with the situation. As they continued their play, people mistook them for a family of three. Yasmine didn't hesitate to start calling Willow and Theodore "Mommy" and "Daddy".The amusement park was filled with families. While they waited in

Sean had barely begun to speak when Iris cut him off angrily. "If Theodore isn't coming, there's no way I'm sending Yaron to the hospital by myself! Tell him to call me back." With that, she ended the call abruptly.Sean stared at his phone and said bitterly, "You heard her. There's no point in giving the phone back to Theodore since she's being completely unreasonable. "If something serious had happened to Yaron, do you really think she'd still be waiting for Mr. Bassett?"Willow's brow creased in concern. "But what if something really is wrong? Sean, you should go, just in case." Then, she reached for her coat and added, "I'll come with you. Better safe than sorry."The rain was coming down in sheets as Willow and Sean drove to the hotel. When they rang the doorbell, Iris answered, her face tightening the moment she saw them standing together."What are you doing here? Where's Theodore?" Iris demanded.Willow remained expressionless and replied, "He's caught up with somethin

Theodore was at a loss for words.Sean cut straight to the point. "Mr. Bassett, there's something you don't know. Yaron's been having fevers over and over because Ms. Saville has been giving him cold baths. "If Ms. Jett hadn't rushed over last night and taken him to the hospital, the doctor said he could've suffered brain damage."Theodore's expression darkened instantly. Just then, a pounding echoed through the room as someone banged on the door."Willow! Willow, open up!" Iris' voice was unmistakable even through the door.Exhausted from the night before, Willow didn't have the energy to engage with anyone. She glanced at Theodore. "Sort out your own family problems."Theodore's expression hardened and he clenched his fists. "Please, just watch over Yaron while I handle this."Willow hummed in response and guided Yaron into the bedroom to escape the chaos brewing outside. She was far too exhausted to face Iris' madness.The relentless banging on the door continued until Th

Four years had slipped by, and Theodore still hadn't apologized to Willow. But by now, an apology wouldn't even be enough to make things right.After slamming the door, Willow pressed her back against it, gasping for air. She sobbed for a long while, her knees growing weak until they could no longer hold her. She sank to the floor, hugging her knees as tears fell freely.She had spent those four years drowning in her thoughts—consumed by anger, pain, and heartache—only to find out it had all been because of a promise Theodore had made to someone else.To Theodore, Willow was a person who was incapable to understand or forgive. Yet, if he had been honest from the beginning, she might have accepted the child, despite her loathing for Iris. The child was innocent, after all, and there could have been other ways to deal with it.But he never thought about her feelings and stubbornly chose his own path. Willow knew that walking away from him had been the right decision.A sudden warmth
