Chapter 2945
She knelt beside him, brushing snow off his hair with a tender smile.
Thank you, Colby, but are you sure youre feeling okay? Weve been out here a while.
Her hands gently rubbed warmth back into his icy fingers.
Your health is the most important thing.
Maybe we should head inside and warm up.
We can play again once youre fully recovered.
He was just starting to recover, and the thought of him falling ill again from playing outside filled Dulcie with dread.
The weight of that possibility sat heavily on her heart, knowing she would feel utterly terrible if he were to suffer again.
Colby said stubbornly, Im fine. Im almost better.
And I have to get strong enough for the entrance ceremony with Destinee.
Beside him, Destinee squeezed his hand, nodding with exaggerated seriousness.
Yeah! Dont worry, Colby.
Youll be fine! Dulcie smiled and brushed more snow from their clothes, watching the two of them run off to rejoin the snow battle.
As the laughter and shouts of the children filled the chilly air, Lucinda and Nathan arrived, having just finished up at the company.
The moment they stepped out of the car, Lucindas gaze fell on the group playing in the snow, their joy infectious.
Lucinda chuckled, a hint of wistfulness in her voice.
Looks Like were not as important to them as we used to be.
They are happy with anyone who plays with them.
Nathan wrapped an arm around her, a teasing glint in his eye.Well, if youre feeling neglected, we could always try for another baby.
Maybe a little one wholl only have eyes for us.
Lucinda shot Nathan a cold look.noveldrama
Why was this man always obsessed with the idea of having more babies? She had just landed an international project that demanded her full attention.
A baby could wait.
Sensing the warning in her gaze, Nathan wisely fell silent, trailing behind her as they made their way through the snow.
Nearby, the two kids were lost in their own world of laughter and chaos.
Mommy! Daddy! Destinee called, her cheeks flushed a rosy red from the cold.
Lucinda knelt down, her voice softening as she chided, Youre having fun, but be careful not to catch a cold. She pulled out a tissue to wipe Destinees nose.
With a gentle touch, she wrapped her scarf around the little girls neck, tucking it snugly.
As Lucinda and Nathan approached, the playful snowball fight came to an abrupt halt.
Dulcie stepped forward, adjusting Colbys hat with a motherly care before guiding him to Lucinda.
Lucinda, she greeted warmly.
Lucinda smiled back, her concern palpable.
I havent checked in with you.
How are you feeling? Is everything alright? Im fine, Lucinda.
Really, dont worry, Dulcie reassured her.
What do you think?
