Megan grabbed Katherine’s arm. “Stop hesitating. Trust me, this makes sense. If I leave, you’ll be the only one taking care of Ivy. If you show up too often, Lucas will get suspicious. It’s better to let him handle her himself. After all, he’s her biological father. And haven’t you heard the saying? The most dangerous place is often the safest.”
Katherine pressed her lips together. After thinking it through, she agreed with Megan.
Megan immediately called Lucas. When the call connected, she explained her request and held the phone tightly, her expression tense.
The air was quiet for two seconds before the man’s deep voice came through slowly. “Okay.”
He agreed.
Just like that.
Megan thanked Lucas and hung up. “All set.”
Katherine looked at Ivy. Asking Lucas to take care of Ivy was truly a crazy decision.
“Are you leaving tomorrow?”
“I checked. It is too late today. The earliest flight is tomorrow.”
“Okay. Then tonight I’ll take you out to dinner. You’ve been in the capital helping me for so many days, and I haven’t properly thanked you
Megan linked her arm with Katherine’s affectionately. “Don’t be so formal. They’re my godsons and goddaughter. Of course I should take care of them. But I’ll accept the dinner.”
Megan blinked and grinned. “I’ve been stuck in the hospital eating takeout these past few days. I need real food.”
“Ivy is going too. Ivy needs real food too.” Ivy quickly raised her little hand, afraid she would be left out.
Katherine tapped Ivy lightly on the head. “Ivy cannot leave the hospital yet.”
“Just a short trip won’t hurt. Otherwise, Mommy, Godmom, can you really relax leaving adorable little me alone in the hospital?” Ivy crossed her arms, flashing them an exaggeratedly innocent expression.
Katherine sighed. “Fine. We’re bringing you.”

Ivy climbed up, wrapped her arms around Katherine’s neck, and planted a loud kiss on her cheek. “Mommy is the best.”
That night, at a restaurant…
“What did you call me here for?” Lucas had just left the office when Sarah called and told him
to come to the restaurant.
Sarah nudged him toward the entrance. “Just go inside. You’ll see.”
Inside the restaurant, Rachel watched him walk in and clenched her hands nervously.
“Lucas.”
Rachel stood up and looked at him gently. She ad carefully done her makeup, chosen a beautiful outfit, and prepared this date with great care.
Rachel looked beautiful tonight, but Lucas wasnt in the mood to appreciate it.
Lucas frowned slightly. He understood why Sarah had called him.
Rachel looked at him with expectation. “Lucas, sit down.”
Lucas pressed his lips together and said nothing The atmosphere grew tense.
Rachel shifted uneasily. “Lucas, I know things have been tense between us lately. I really want us to talk.”
“There’s nothing to talk about.”
Lucas turned to leave. Rachel quickly said, “Lucas, do you remember what day it is? Ten years ago today, we got together for the first time. And now… 10 years have passed since we separated.”
As she spoke, tears slid down her face. “Lucas, even though we broke up, you promised that no matter how much time passes, we’d still be family and friends. You promised to protect me and take care of me, just like when we were kids, just like when we were together.”
As soon as Rachel finished speaking, the lights in the restaurant went out. A large projection screen lit up in front of them. Lucas frowned and looked up.
At the same time, Katherine and Megan followed a server down the hallway with Ivy.
The server had said the main dining area was reserved tonight and only private rooms were available.
