The front desk gave them three wristbands to wear.

When Benjamin came over, he lifted his arm to show off. “Dawn, look! Doesn’t this look like a Power Ranger transformation device?”

Dawn pretended not to understand. “You transform from your wrist?”

“Yeah! There’s a switch right here. You flip it, and boom, you turn into armor!”

As he spoke, the kid acted it out, completely awake now.

Ethan told him to stand to the side and then took Dawn’s hand.

“I can do it my-”

“Don’t move.”

Dawn watched his focused movements and actually didn’t move at all, letting him fasten the wristband around her wrist.

Ethan looked up and saw her half–smiling expression. He raised a brow. “What?”

“Nothing.” Dawn glanced at it. It wasn’t loose or tight, just right. “It’s just… this really makes us look like a family of three, doesn’t it?”

Before the man could respond, she turned to look for Benjamin.

Ethan’s gaze was deep as he looked at the mother and son, their features almost equally refined. Then he followed after them.

An amusement park is a kid’s paradise.

The second Benjamin got in, he took off like a wild horse.

After following him for a while, Dawn finally waved in surrender.

“I’m done… I can’t do it. Ethan, you go. Go play with him.”

The man laughed and had someone bring her a bottle of water, then went to find Benjamin.

Maybe all men have a natural boyishness in them. He blended in with the kids easily.

Dawn watched, and a smile slipped onto her lips without her noticing.

She hadn’t been sitting long when Mason called.

“Ms. West, you have an appointment with Mr. Brown at two this afternoon. Do you need me to pick you up?”

Dawn froze. Crap … I totally forgot.

In a blink, it was 1 p.m. Ethan and Benjamin finally came out for water.

Dawn wiped Benjamin’s sweat and asked if he needed the restroom.

As she did, her eyes drifted back to Ethan again and again.

He’d clearly been burning through energy. There was a faint flush on his face. His features were sharp, and a light sheen of sweat glistened at his temples.

Strands of hair fell over his brows, making him look even more mysterious and tempting.

Dawn licked her lips and dragged her feet over.

“Um, Ethan…”

Just one look, and he knew she had something on her mind.

Ethan found it amusing, though his face showed nothing. “What, do you wanna play with. him?”

“No, no, no!” Dawn shook her head fast. She glanced at the eager little boy beside him lowered her voice. “I need a favor. If you can’t help, I’ll just drop it.”

“Let’s hear it.”

“My company has something urgent. Can you stay here with Benjamin this afternoon?”

The man lifted a brow but didn’t speak.

“It’s my fault. I forgot about it…” Dawn bit her lip and held up three fingers. “I promise I’ll be back soon. Three hours? No! Two hours. You’ll definitely see me by then, okay?”

Her clear, shining eyes were just like a kitten begging for attention.

Ethan’s heart jumped. His Adam’s apple rolled unconsciously.

“Please?”

Dawn tilted her head, chasing his gaze. “Is that a yes or a no?”

The man closed his eyes and took a long breath, helpless. “Go. Come back immediately after you’re done.”

“Yeah, you got it!”

Dawn beamed, grabbed her bag, and hurried off.

This man’s moods are unpredictable. If he changes his mind, I’ll be in trouble.

Benjamin watched her leave, sprawled against Ethan’s leg in confusion. “Ethan, Mommy said she had something to do. She was in such a rush… Is she going to poop?”

Ethan paused before saying, “No.”

He laughed despite himself. “She’s going to work! Come on, let’s keep playing.”

Dawn drove straight to the café they’d agreed on

Daniel was already there. Through the floor–to–ceiling window, he looked crisp in a suit, gold–rimmed glasses perched on his high nose.

He sipped his coffee slowly and elegantly, though it couldn’t hide the foul air about him.

Dawn’s eyes cooled as she went in through the front door.

Daniel looked up and smiled when he saw her approaching.

“It’s been a while, Ms. West. You’re as radiant as ever.”

“Thanks.”

Dawn’s expression stayed flat as she sat down. “Sorry, something else came up and made me late. Thanks for waiting.”

“No problem. Waiting for you is an honor.” Daniel motioned for the waiter. “What would you like to drink?”

“Just water.”

She met his gaze, swallowed her unease, and said quietly, “I asked to meet today because I want to make a deal with you.”

“Oh?”

Daniel raised a brow, clearly interested. “What kind of deal?”

Before Dawn could answer, he laughed softly. “Technically, you’re my superior. Whatever you ask me to do is my job. So why call it a deal
