The Contracted Ever After (Cordelia and Ronan) novel Chapter 326

Ronan was taking the usual route that Tristi took, walking along the canal, where the water shimmered silver under the sunlight.

Spring was in the air, the red flowers and green grass vibrant with life under Cordelia's gaze. The streets were starting to get busy again.

"Are you familiar with this route, too?" Cordelia asked Ronan.

"Always have been," he replied.

Cordelia nodded, taking a moment to process his response.

During winter, he had taken her out, explaining that most people in Millstone had gone home for Christmas. Now, they were back, and the streets were bustling. This seemed like the first time Cordelia had really noticed the beauty of spring.

"Do you want to go to the park?" He asked.

"Why not," she answered.

Although the public park was free to enter, Cordelia rarely visited. During her school days, she would hang out with Logan on campus. After starting work, she didn't have the time. Then, she got pregnant.

Most young people didn't frequent the park either, too busy hustling to earn a living.

"Should we head to Millstone Park?" He suggested, glancing at her through the rear-view mirror.

"Is it far?" She queried.

"Not really."

"Anything special about it?"

"It's the biggest park in Millstone, and it's very peaceful. There's even a small zoo."

"A zoo?" Cordelia's interest was piqued. "What animals are there?"

"Crocodiles, lions, elephants, tigers, and many more."

"Let's go then," she decided.

She hadn't visited a zoo since her childhood. During her school days, the idea of going to a zoo never really occurred to her and Logan.

"Should we look at the animals first and then go for a boat ride?" He suggested.
