Chapter 95
three.
Celeste felt very happy upon seeing how much Samuel liked the stuffed toy. Somehow, this warm feeling made her feel like they were truly a family of
She couldn’t help but think of her own child from years ago. He should be about the same age as Samuel now, right? She wondered how he was doing now…
The light in Celeste’s eyes dimmed a little. Julian immediately noticed the change in her mood. She was fine just a moment ago. Did she recall something that made her sad? What could it be? Or perhaps it was someone who had triggered this sudden shift in her emotions.
Julian pressed his lips together, but he didn’t manage to ask in the end.
Celeste didn’t dwell on her thoughts either. Once the event ended, she left with Julian and Samuel. They retumed home and changed into fresh clothes before going out for dinner.
At the quiet restaurant, Samuel lifted his drink from the table and toasted to Celeste cheerfully, “Dad, Mo… Ms. Hart! Cheers to us for winning first place today!”
Celeste smiled and raised her glass. Julian did the same.
After that, Samuel enjoyed his dinner happily. He constantly served Celeste by putting food on her plate.
“Samuel, it’s alright. I can help myself,” said Celeste.
“No, no. I want to thank you by personally serving you, Ms. Hart.”
Celeste couldn’t stop herself from smiling. Julian smiled helplessly as well. Samuel, his son, was doing his job for him instead..
After spending more time together, Julian noticed that not only did Celeste and Samuel look alike, but they also had very similar tastes. Anyone who didn’t know them might think they were actually biological mother and son
The atmosphere at the dinner table was warm and joyful, and soon, they finished their meal. After leaving the restaurant, Julian drove Celeste home.
Celeste was holding Samuel in her arms when she got out of the car. He wrapped his arms around her neck and refused to let go. “It’s time to part ways with you again, Ms. Hart. How did the day go by so quickly? Ms. Hart, I will miss you terribly.”
Celeste gave him a helpless smile and spoke in a gentle tone, “Samuel, you can come and see me again tomorrow!” With that, she kissed him on the cheek
A smile bloomed across Samuel’s face. “Alright then. Good night, Ms. Hart! Dad and I will be leaving now, Remember to miss me!”
Julian stood quietly beside them. He wondered how Samuel always seemed to get better treatment than he did. It wasn’t fair.
Celeste was oblivious to Julian’s jealousy toward Samuel. She smiled at the two of them and said, “Okay, good night.”
Julian glanced at her briefly and lifted Samuel into the car. Celeste remained standing downstairs and watched their car drive away before heading back home. After they parted ways, Julian didn’t head home. Instead, he drove Samuel to Ford Residence. A few days earlier, Mariana had specifically instructed him to bring Samuel to Ford Residence after his event so that they could spend time with him.
Samuel said sulldly, “I don’t like going to Grandpa and Grandma’s place. I want to go to Ms. Hart’s home.”
He wanted to hear Celeste’s stories and sleep next to her. To put it simply, he just wanted to be with Celeste all the time.
Julian chuckled helplessly upon hearing that
