BACK TO MOUNTAIN RIDGE

The following day, Kaito and Akira woke up late after a long night of catching up. Even though they did not sleep a lot, their faces were radiant as they walked into the living room hand in hand. Their smiles looked as wide as a clown's. 

Hu Lei looked up from her computer. She was catching up on some of her correspondence from her publisher, Bo Qian. Originally, she planned to drop her writing career after publishing 'Forgive Me, Father', but she had resumed writing during her pregnancy. 

If she had not, she would have been driven mad by doing nothing. 

"Have you heard of a certain invention called a door?" Hu Lei asked Kaito. 

"Doors are for suckers," Kaito said. 

He wanted to continue when he noticed Xiao Bao in the white playpen behind Hu Lei. His eyes widened as he released Akira's hand and walked to the small structure. He bent down and looked at the child with blazing eyes.
