At that moment, Ethan’s shirt remained partially unbuttoned. 

Upon hearing what was said, he promptly fastened the remaining buttons. Then, he cast a glance at Nancy and remarked, “I was being forgetful. You’ve got a keener eye.” 

Nancy flashed a smile and said, “Well then, I’ll take Sophie back to the room. Join us once you’re properly dressed.” 

Ethan gave a nod. “Sure thing.” 

All the while, Sophia stood on the sidelines, feeling like an outsider who was being overlooked. 

Witnessing Ethan and Nancy’s easy–going interaction, she felt like crying. 

It wasn’t until Nancy turned around and grasped her hand that the pent–up emotions spilled over, and Sophia began to cry pitifully. 

Nancy took note of Sophia’s distress but didn’t offer any immediate words of comfort. Instead, she led the little girl back to the bedroom. 

Once inside, Nancy rummaged around and found the clothes Sophia was supposed to wear for the day. 

Disregarding the tears in Sophia’s eyes, she haphazardly pulled

After Soplin was dressed, she sanddenly catched Mary’s tut and, with a choked voice, usked, “unoy, will you always se mey” 

Nancy reached up and gently wiped away the tears from Sophia’s cheeks. “Absolutely, honky,” 

Still not entirely reassured, Sophia threw herself into Nancy’s arms and clung tightly. “Nancy, please don’t leave me. I don’t have a mom, so you’re my mom now.” 

Nancy tenderly ran her fingers through Sophia’s hair and softly replied, “Okay, I’ll be your mom. 

Just as Ethan, now fully attired, approached the door to enter, the words he heard from Sophia made him halt in his tracks. 

Seeing how reliant Sophia was on Nancy, he couldn’t help but think that divorcing Emily might have been the wisest decision. 

Saturday rolled around, the day of the kindergarten’s autumn outing. 

The previous night, Chloe had called Emily and said she had some business to attend to, leaving Emily to accompany Molly 

alone. 

Emily agreed and got up bright and early to prepare.

The teacher started taking attendance and soon realized that only Sophia and her parent were missing. 

Emily stood in the crowd, holding Molly’s hand, her gaze fixed 

on the school gate, hoping to catch a glimpse of Sophia. 

She’d always instilled in Sophia the importance of being punctual. 

Now, everyone had been waiting for close to ten minutes. 

As the minutes ticked by and there was still no sign of Sophia and her parent, some of the parents started to grumble. 

“Can we just get going? Do we really have to wait for them?” 

“Come on, it’s the weekend! I’ve got a mountain of work waiting for me. I took time out for this, but there’s no need to waste it like this.” 

“Hey, teachers, how about we start? Time’s a–wastin‘, you know!” 

In the blink of an eye, a cacophony of discussions resounded throughout the kindergarten. 

While most were caught up in the chatter, Emily kept her eyes fixed on the entrance, seemingly lost in thought.

Following Molly’s pointed glance Emily turned her head. 

There, in the middle of the crowd, stood Alexander alongside 

Tommy. 

Yet, as their eyes almost met, Alexander quickly averted his 

gaze. 

Emily reached out and tousled Molly’s hair. “Don’t worry, Molly. Mr. Lessing and I are friends. It’s normal for him to look my way.” 

Molly, still too young to grasp the nuances, didn’t dwell on it. Instead, she squeezed Emily’s hand tightly. “Alright, as long as you’re happy, Aunt Emily.” 

A wave of warmth washed over Emily’s heart. She gave Molly a little nuzzle on the forehead and replied, “Absolutely, sweetie.” 

Twenty minutes later, Nancy finally arrived with Sophia in tow, a tad out of breath.

With these simple words, the grumbles and discontent melted away. Cheers and praises filled the air. 

“Sophie’s mom is not only stunning but also so magnanimous. What a gem!” one parent exclaimed. 

“My wife would never be as thoughtful as Sophie’s mom,” another sighed enviously. 

“Sophie’s dad is one lucky chap to have such an incredible wife,” someone else chimed in. 

The once–disgruntled crowd was now in full–blown flattery 

mode. 

Nancy basked in the adoration, her face radiant with pride. 

Meanwhile, Sophia stood quietly by Nancy’s side, completely overshadowed by Nancy’s dazzling presence, as if she were a mere shadow.
