Suddenly, the air seemed to go rather still.
Lenora looked up and found herself staring straight into the depths of Zachary's eyes. Realization of the sinuation she was in dawned on her immediately, and she became as flustered as a rabbit that had been
aught. "You're home? Didn't you say you were busy? Why are you taking a bath in the guest room? And hy are you bathing at this hour?
This is bizarre! It's just too bizarre! I suspect he's trying to seduce me!
He shrugged. "I'll answer your questions one by one. I did have something to do, but I'm free now. As for why I took a bath in the guest room, that's because Hattie is watching cartoons in the master bedroom. Why did I choose to bathe at this hour? Well, because I stayed up late last night playing games with Hattie. Are these answers satisfactory?"
She shot him a frosty look, let out a soft snort, then turned to head toward the master bedroom when he suddenly grabbed her wrist.
"What are you doing?" she demanded, struggling to break free.
He took her hand and placed it on his abs. "Didn't you want to touch it?"
When her slender fingers landed on those clearly defined muscles, she felt a familiar warmth. As though scalded, she quickly withdrew her hand and glared at him. "Zachary Fuller, are you out of your mind?" Without waiting for his response, she strode off, pushed open the door to the master bedroom, and entered the room.
Harrietta was sitting on the small couch, holding an iPad and watching her favorite cartoon. She looked up when she heard the sound of the door opening, and her eyes instantly lit up. "Aunt Lenora, you're here!"
For some reason, Lenora could still feel the warmth and firmness lingering on her fingertips. She rubbed her fingers and took a moment to compose herself before saying, "Come, Hattie. Let's head out and have some fun." "Wait for me!" Harrietta swiftly turned off the cartoon, and then said, "Let's go."
Lenora quickly followed Harrietta downstairs.
Upon walking out of the living room, she immediately noticed a piercing gaze fixed on her, making her feel as though she were sitting on pins and needles.
She fought the urge to look back and continued walking.
Harrietta, however, turned around and waved toward the second-floor balcony. "Uncle Zachary, Aunt Lenora and I are going out to have some fun!"
"Okay. Be good and listen to what your Aunt Lenora tells you," a voice rang out from behind.
"I know."
Lenora took Harrietta to the amusement park, where they enjoyed numerous rides.

Lenora bought her a cotton candy, then glanced at her watch. "All right. Hattic. We should go and get something to eat."
"Okay! What are we having for lunch today?" Harrietta asked, her eyes shining as she savored the cotton candy.
After thoroughly enjoying the previous day's lunch and dinner, she had been looking forward to that day's lunch all morning.
"I've reserved a table at a restaurant. We'll order some dishes today. You can pick whatever you'd like to eat once we get to the restaurant and see the menu."

"I want to eat meat!"
"There'll definitely be meat," Lenora replied with a smile before proceeding to give Harrietta a heads-up. "By the way, a friend of mine will be joining us for lunch today."
The little girl's mind worked incredibly fast. "Is it Connor Morris?"
Lenora rubbed her nose awkwardly. "Yes."
Harrietta widened her eyes, a look of having just been deceived etched across her face. "Aunt Lenora, didn't you say you wouldn't respond to his messages? You lied! Aunt Lenora, you lied! Waaaah!"
-Hattie, don't be upset. We're really just friends. Two friends having a meal together, that's all! Think about it. If there truly was something going on between us, I'd definitely meet him alone. Why would I bring you along?" Lenora hurriedly explained, reminiscent of a cheater who did not want a divorce.
Previously, she had considered whether or not to bring Harrietta to join her and Connor for lunch.
er giving it some thought, she still decided to bring Harrietta along as usual, treating it as a casual meal with Connor while on their day out instead of making a big deal out of it.
After all, Daryl and Richie knew she was Fernando's daughter. If she appeared to be deliberately getting close to Connor, that could very likely arouse suspicion.
Moreover, I truly intend to only discuss work-related matters with Connor during the meal. I don't plan on talking about anything else. Some things just require time.
Harrietta turned away, an aggrieved expression on her face. "What I care about isn't whether you take me with you or not, but the fact that you clearly told me yesterday that there was no need to reply. And now, you're going to eat with him. You're just lying to me... No, you're trying to fool me. You're treating me like a child and trying to fool me... Waaaah!" Hattie, no. It's not... I'm not trying to fool you. It's just... There's just some unexpected situation..." Lenora responded, her words coming out disjointed and incoherent.
"What unexpected situation?" Harrietta pouted and looked up at her.
I can't tell her the truth. So, what other unexpected situations could there be?
Lenora pondered for a moment, a complicated and torn expression on her face. "Hattie, to be honest with

you... I like him a little. You must favor your Uncle Zachary more, which is why I didn't respond to the message in front of you yesterday...
Harrietta was stunned. She stared blankly at Lenora, mouth agape and eyes wide with disbelief.
"You like him? What about Uncle Zachary?" She looked as though she was on the verge of tears. "It's true. Uncle Zachary likes you a lot! He told me that he accidentally lost you and that he'd find you. He said that if he failed, he'd never marry. Aunt Lenora, could you give Uncle Zachary another chance?" "Hattic, I'm sorry. I know how much you want us to be together, but I need to tell you that it's simply not possible anymore. I already have someone I like, and so does he. We can't be together anymore."
Since Lenora had already confessed her feelings for Connor earlier, it did not make her feel uncomfortable when she mentioned it again.
That's right. I'm interested in Connor. It's not enough to just say it in front of Harrietta. I also have to act that way in front of everyone else to avoid raising any suspicions.
Tears welled up in Harrietta's eyes, and she even flung her cotton candy onto the ground. Sobbing, she said, "Aunt Lenora, I want you to be my aunt. Please don't fall for anyone else..." Lepora's heart broke when she saw Harrietta crying.
She leaned down and cradled the little girl in her arms, gently patting the latter's shoulders. "Don't cry, Hattie. Don't cry. I'll buy you some candy, okay?"
"I don't want candy, I only want you."

"Hattie, I truly can't fulfill that wish of yours. Since you don't like Connor, do you still want to join! lunch? If you'd rather not, I can take you home," Lenora offered. Harrietta paused and thought for a few seconds, then declared, "I'm going I'm going to have lunch with you."
She pouted again. I want to see what this guy is really like. How can he possibly compare to Uncle Zachary? Hmph!
Seeing her puff up her cheeks in annoyance and looking just like a pufferfish, Lenora had to resist the urge to pinch her cheeks. "Come on. Let's go and eat."
Lenora brought Harrietta to Opulence Restaurant on Caspia Road, where they entered a private room. Connor had not arrived yet. The waiter brought over the tableware, water, and the menu.
In an attempt to soothe Harrietta's spirits, Lenora placed the menu in front of her and said, "Order whatever you'd like to eat."
Harrietta looked up and asked, "Aunt Lenora, are you picking up the tab or is he?"
He is," Lenora answered.
"Oh. In that case, I'll order more."
Lenora gave a helpless smile and gently tapped Harrietta's forehead. "Honestly!
