Chapter 3815
Serenity couldn’t help but chuckle to herself. She had been married for only a year and was already expecting her first child. Previously, she felt pressured about having kids, and now, before even giving birth, she was already contemplating a second child—a daughter—so she could achieve the perfect balance of a son and a daughter.
“Honey, I’m going out for a walk,” Serenity announced. “I want to check on Sonny and Rowan and see what they’re up to.”
Zachary nodded and reminded her, “Make sure to ask Miss Caron to join you. Be back before evening; it’ll get windy and chilly.”
“I know, I know,” Serenity replied as she exited the dining hall. “We’re at home; what’s there to worry about?”
Zachary, once a man of few words, had transformed into a doting husband. In front of Serenity, he now behaved like a concerned parent, always fussing over her.
Accompanied by Kiera, Serenity stepped outside to enjoy the fresh air. Kiera, who had followed Julian to Wildridge Manor, had spent most of her time chatting with Grandma and hadn’t really had the chance to admire the winter scenery. Although Wiltspoon didn’t get snow, the mild winter here had a unique beauty that was still impressive.
“Auntie!” Sonny called out as he spotted Serenity. He was holding a kite, struggling to free himself from Rowan’s grip. Once he broke free, he ran towards Serenity, shouting, “Auntie, you’re awake! Do you want to see me fly a kite? It’s windy today, and Uncle Rowan and I, along with the other kids, are flying kites on the lawn. It’s so much fun! I don’t want to stop, but Uncle Rowan pulled me back.”
Sonny looked up at her with wide, hopeful eyes,
clearly a wish for him to continue flying kites, just as they had at FC Manor. Titus had been excellent at flying kites, and Sonny already missed him, even though they had just returned from FC Manor earlier that day. Rowan, trying to justify his actions, said, “Sister-in-law, Sonny keeps taking off his coat. It’s windy, and I’m worried he’ll catch a cold. I told him to wear his coat or come inside, but he refused, so I brought him back to play indoors.” Serenity noticed that the coat Rowan was holding belonged to Sonny. She gently tapped Sonny’s forehead. “You need to keep your coat on, even if you’re feeling warm. You can’t just take it off all at once; that’s how you catch a cold. The coat Uncle Rowan has is light, so it won’t make you too hot. But if you don’t wear it, you’ll get sick.” Reluctantly, Sonny handed Serenity his kite and took the coat from Rowan, putting it back on. “Okay, Uncle Rowan, I’ll keep my coat on. Can we go fly kites again?” “We’ve been flying kites for a long time already,” Rowan replied. “Let’s switch things up and play something else.” At sixteen or seventeen, Rowan felt a bit silly spending so much time flying kites with little kids. Sonny thought for a moment and suggested, “How about the inflatable castle? And the slide?” Rowan agreed, “Alright, let’s go.” The children’s playground at their home was where Rowan had spent his childhood. He had loved playing there when he was younger, but as he grew older, he rarely visited. Still, taking Sonny there was a great excuse to relive some of his childhood. Jumping in the inflatable castle was
“Surprisingly, jumping in the inflatable castle was quite relaxing and an effective way to de-stress. “We’ve been flying kites for quite some time,” Rowan said. “Let’s change things up and do something else.” At sixteen or seventeen, he felt somewhat silly spending so much time flying kites with younger kids. After thinking for a moment, Sonny suggested, “How about the inflatable castle and the slide?” Rowan replied, “Alright, let’s go.”
The children’s playground at their home was where Rowan had spent much of his childhood. He had enjoyed playing there when he was younger, but as he grew older, he visited less frequently. Nonetheless, taking Sonny there provided a wonderful excuse to revisit some of those childhood joys.
“Sister-in-law, I’m taking Sonny to the playground,” Rowan announced as he led Sonny away. He turned to Kiera and added, “Miss Caron, Sonny and I are off to play.” Serenity smiled and nodded as she watched them depart.”
