“Very well. Three cups of hot cocoa. You can find a table and wait there,” the cashier
said.
“Okay,” Ethan said.
He looked around and led the children to a table by the window.
“Come. Let’s go there,” he said to them.
Nicole swiftly ran over to grab a corner of Ethan’s shirt.
When he looked down, he spotted a tiny pink fist clenched around his shirt. It was
so tiny that it was barely a third of the size of his palm.
It might be small, but it still clung tight to his shirt.
He was the stereotypical tough guy, but he felt his heart melt into a puddle at the
sight of that fist.
It was no wonder that most people liked kids.
Thus, he slowed down to ensure Nicole was able to keep up with him. He also

glanced at Nathan to check on him.
As expected of the boy, Nathan maintained a distance from him as he walked
beside his sister in a composed manner. The solemn look on his face made him
look just like a miniature adult.
Ever since Alaric’s warning, Terrance had been too afraid to be distracted by
anything else. When he heard Ethan walking past with suitcases, he had the strong
urge to look over.
However, the memory of Alaric’s warning glare forced him to suppress it.
He waited until Ethan walked past them before sneaking a glance at Ethan.
He had expected to see a pile of suitcases being moved, not the backs of two
adorable children.
The children were dressed in outfits that were identical in every way except for
color.
Ah, children. Finally, Terrance realized why Ethan had so many suitcases with him.
“You will not be getting on the plane if you can’t resolve this matter before the

boarding time.”
Alaric’s frigid voice and warning caught him by surprise.
Terrance snapped back to his senses to find Alaric glaring at him with icy eyes.

As Terrance’s face went pale, he hurriedly replied, “Right away! I promise I won’t be
distracted again.”

The very thought that he might not get on the flight scared him so much that he did
not have the guts to think about anything else but his work. With his head ducked
down, he focused all of his attention on the work.
The women’s bathrooms.
The capital’s airport was so huge that Victoria had to spend several long minutes
searching for the bathrooms.
After locking herself in the stall, she found that her period had arrived as expected.
She had been so busy throughout the month that she forgot her period was
supposed to start today.
Thankfully, she always kept a stash of emergency supplies in her bag.

Otherwise…
Once she was done, she headed outside to wash her hands.

The water was ice cold. She would usually be fine with it except during her periods.
The cold sensation was unbearable then as every drop of water flowing down her
hands felt like shards of ice scraping past her skin.
Her face was ghastly pale, including her lips.
The pain radiating from her abdomen felt stronger than before.
That was likely caused by the cold drink she had last night.
She would never touch anything cold during the days before her period was due to
start, but she had been so very busy that she forgot what day it was. She also did
not have the time to think last night. Food was all that she could think about.
She was in for it now. Today, she would be dying from pain.
She did not bring any painkillers either.
In the end, she had no choice but to stumble out of the bathroom with her arms
wrapped around her abdomen.

As she walked out, she bumped into a middle–aged woman who steadied her with a
concerned look on her face. “Goodness! Are you okay?”
Victoria plastered a friendly smile on her face and nodded her head.
“I’m fine,” she replied.
“But, you don’t look so good, love.”
“It’s just my period.”
The woman instantly understood what was happening then. “Take care, then.”
“Thank you,” Victoria responded with another wan smile.

Right outside the bathroom was a boarding gate, so she sat down near it and pulled
out her phone to message Ethan.
‘Have you arrived at the boarding gates yet, Mr. Hudson?‘
When Ethan received her message, he had been waiting in the cafe for a very long.

The workers here were way too slow.

As he thought that, his phone buzzed with Victoria’s message.

‘We’re in a cafe near where we parted,’ he started to reply.
“Your hot cocoa, sir.”
Before he could finish his message, the cafe staff called out to him.
“Okay,” he called back, putting away his phone to grab the suitcases. Then, he
turned to Nathan and Nicole and said, “Come. Our hot cocoas are waiting for us.”
The two children followed behind him as he walked off with the suitcases.
As they passed by Alaric, Nathan, who was walking at the back, glanced at Alaric.
With one glance, Nathan recognized Alaric as the man who had opened the door for
him in the bathrooms even though he was on a call.
Nathan had not expected to see Alaric here.
He opened his mouth to greet Alaric but was interrupted by Ethan.
“Hey, kiddos, stay close to me. I’ll be doomed if I lose you,” Ethan said.

Distracted from his initial train of thought, Nathan turned and toddled over to Ethan.
with his tiny legs.
With three cups of hot cocoa successfully acquired, Ethan made sure to place
straws in the children’s cups. He then ruffled their hair.
“Alright. Let’s go find your mom.”
Nicole took a tentative sip of her warm drink. Her beautiful eyes squinted with joy.
“Thank you, Mr. Hudson.”
Her thanks were repeated by Nathan who had curled his fingers around his cup as
well.
“Let’s go,” Ethan repeated.
“Phew!” Terrance heaved a huge sigh of relief and looked up from his paperwork.
“All done.”
He then stretched his arms out in his usual stretch.
However, halfway through the motion, he froze as he suddenly spotted the cold
glare directed at him. He looked just like a glitching robot.

Terrance awkwardly blinked in response before slowly pulling his arms back and
looking around to hide his awkwardness.
As he scanned the area around him, he spotted the man who had walked past their
table with two children. They were walking out of the cafe.
Previously, Terrance had only been able to see the children’s backs. Now, he had a
clear view of their faces. Content © NôvelDrama.Org 2024.
His eyes went wide with shock upon the first glance.
Shoot!
Was this truly just a coincidence?
These two children were featured in the stream Alaric usually watches!
He had not imagined they would bump into the children at the airport.
“M–Mr. Cadogan, I feel like I must inform you of some major news,” he started.
He then pointed out to the children and continued, “The two kids who just walked
past us…”

Unfortunately, Alaric’s phone started ringing then.
Alaric ignored Terrance and promptly answered the phone in a cold–hearted
manner.
“Hey,” Alaric greeted.
Terrance had no choice but to hold back the words he was about to say.
One moment later, he pursed his lips hard as he stared at Alaric. In his mind, he
swore that Alaric would regret what he had just done.
