The CEO’s Regret My Ex-Wife is a Tech Goddess novel Chapter 302

She would linger by windowsills overflowing with flowers, rising slightly on her toes as her fingertips brushed against the delicate petals, careful not to disturb the spring blooms. She leaned against wooden fences by the river, gazing absentmindedly at the crystal-clear water. The lake mirrored the snow-capped peaks and drifting clouds, its tranquil reflection broken only when white waterbirds skimmed the surface.

They passed an artisanal dessert shop on the street. Its clean, wooden storefront radiated a cozy charm, carrying the rich, inviting aroma of butter and fresh baking.

Silas pushed open the door, keeping her hand in his. He ordered two local cream waffles and a pot of warm fruit tea.

Their window seat offered a perfect view of the distant snowy mountains and the lake. Sunlight poured through the glass, casting a comforting warmth over the edge of the table and their shoulders.

Alaina took a small bite of the fluffy waffle, the sweet cream melting on her tongue. Her eyes curved into soft crescents. Offering him half the pastry, she brought it close to his lips, a gentle smile in her eyes. "Try it. It's incredibly sweet."

Instead of taking a bite, Silas leaned in and deftly captured the corner of her lips in a light kiss. "It really is sweet," he murmured, his voice low and laced with amusement.

A flush instantly crept up Alaina's cheeks. She gently pushed his shoulder, dodging his gaze with a playful pout, though her heart melted at his affection.

The town grew even more tranquil as dusk fell.

He pulled out his phone, opened the camera, and slowly focused on the scenery—and on the woman before him.

"Taking pictures of the view?" Alaina asked softly.

Silas lowered his phone, his tone earnest and deeply affectionate. "I'm capturing my view."

Through the lens, the vibrant spring colors, the snow-capped mountains, and the serene lake were merely the backdrop. The woman with the gentle gaze was the only subject that mattered.

Seeing that it was getting late, they headed back to the Lochner household.

Lucas and his wife had prepared a lavish dinner, the family atmosphere incredibly inviting.
