Nate returned to his office, absent-minded and a little worried. He did manage not to argue with Lara, but she had straight out refused him.

She didn't want to marry in the first place, and even less when the proposal came together with duties and responsibilities.

Scarlet strolled behind him, silent and in a bad mood. After the holiday, it was no big surprise. There was a tough battle going on in her heart.

On one side, she felt threatened by Nate's presence. She didn't want to let him have her mommy. On the other hand, she was starting to like having a father.

Even if they didn't do much together, he would do most of what she asked him. Especially if she asked cutely... Her mommy wouldn't fall into her obvious traps.

Since they had returned home, Jaden had been silent. He didn't tell Scarlet even once not to trust Nate, so she was starting to wonder if her brother was forgetting their initial, primal purpose.
