Bennett's lips curved into a smile at the thought. A child of his and Yvonne's—it was something he truly looked forward to.
"We'll see. Yvonne's still a child herself," Bennett sighed softly.
"True, she is quite young. Serves you right for robbing the cradle," Noah teased.
Bennett just shook his head and laughed, his gaze returning to Yvonne and Nicola. But then he saw Cynthia and her brother, Lionel Scott, had also appeared by the lake and were walking toward them.
Nicola was running with the kite string and didn't see who was behind her, bumping right into Cynthia.
The little girl stumbled, nearly falling, but Cynthia reacted quickly and caught her.
"Are you alright?" Cynthia asked, crouching down to look at Nicola with a warm smile.
Nicola shook her head. "I'm okay, miss."
Just then, Yvonne hurried over, anxiously pulling Nicola toward her to check for any injuries.
"Auntie, I'm fine. This lady caught me," Nicola said obediently.
Yvonne finally looked up at Cynthia. "Ms. Scott, what a coincidence."
Cynthia had the same gentle demeanor as always, her smile perfectly measured. "We're on vacation here. We didn't expect to run into you all."
She then introduced the young man beside her.
He was more of a boy than a man, really, looking a year or two younger than Yvonne.
