His gaze was calm and steady, no different from any other time they had looked at each other.

Amelia’s heart skipped a beat.

She avoided his eyes and stood awkwardly at the foot of the stairs. Her voice was soft when she spoke. “It’s getting late. I should go back now. The Rowe family might ask about me.”

Hayden jumped up from the carpet at once and ran over to grab her hand. “Aunt Amelia, stay for dinner! Daddy Mason had them make lots of dishes you like!”

Amelia was about to find an excuse when Mason stood up.

“Eat first, then go,” he said naturally.

“But…”

“I already called the Rowe family,” he said, cutting her off. “I told them we had relatives over and you would stay for dinner. They did not say anything.”

Amelia froze..

He had already arranged everything for her.

She opened her mouth, then could only say two dry words. “Thank you.”

While waiting for dinner, Amelia sat on the couch and chatted with Hayden. Yet her attention kept drifting toward Mason without control.

She watched him quietly.

He was on a phone call, likely handling work matters.

The lines of his side profile were still sharp and calm. His tone was steady and normal.

From start to finish, there was not a trace of embarrassment or unease. Nothing you would expect from a man who had kissed a woman in secret.

His attitude toward her was no different than before. Polite, distant, and carefully measured.

Amelia’s heart sank little by little.

She clenched her fingers tightly and let out a long breath in her mind.

See? She had overthought it.

That kiss that shook her so deeply was just an illusion caused by alcohol.

The Mason before her was still the same Mason.

Cold and distant.

Dinner felt slightly awkward.

Amelia tried hard to act natural and focused on the beatiful food in front of her.

The maids here were skilled. Several dishes were her favorites from memory.

Yet for some reason, she could not taste much today.

Across from her, Mason ate calmly. From time to time, he placed food on Hayden’s plate when the boy could not reach it. His movements were steady and sure full of mature ease.

After dinner, Amelia insisted on leaving. Mason took the car keys and said it was too late and unsafe.

“I will drive you.”

Before leaving, Hayden, who had stayed close to her all evening, suddenly pulled out a neatly wrapped gift bag and placed it in her arms.

“Aunt Amelia, this is for you.”

She looked down. Inside was a large cute panda plush, the same one he had been reluctant to let go at the zoo souvenir shop.

“This is too much. I cannot take it,” Amelia said quickly.

“I did not buy it,” Hayden explained in a rush, his face turning red. “Daddy Mason won it at the shooting game today. Now I am giving it to you.”

Amelia paused and looked up at Mason, who was already at the entryway changing his shoes.

His tall back was turned to her. Under the lights, his shadow was quiet and still. He did not stop moving when he heard this.

“Take it, Aunt Amelia,” Hayden said eagerly. “You played with me all day. I was very happy.”

Amelia bent down and spoke gently. “Okay. Aunt Amelia will accept it. Thank you, Hayden.”
