As Cassie left, Aiden put down the newspaper and headed to the dining room. He ignored the breakfast Cassie had brought and did not touch it at all. After he finished his meal, he left for the office. His morning was packed with several meetings, including international ones, and a pile of documents awaited his review. He remained busy until the afternoon. Eventually, he managed to take a short break. While Aiden sat at his desk, his complexion was pale, and he was visibly exhausted. Noticing his weariness, Nolan expressed his concern, “Are you alright?” “I’m fine,” Aiden replied as he massaged his throbbing temples. The intense mental exertion had left him feeling sluggish. “What else needs to be done today?” Aiden asked. “Most of the work is done. Oh, there’s one thing to report. Westview Hot Springs Resort has been completed, and it’s ready to start operating. It will offer free experiences at first. As the owner, this could be a great opportunity for you to relax. Y

The restaurant in the resort had prepared a meticulously crafted meal, with ingredients flown in that very morning. The chef’s cooking skills resulted in dishes that were a feast for the senses. The children ate until their little bellies were full, but their eagerness to explore could not be contained. Nolan was right—there was indeed a beautiful maple forest behind the resort. With autumn approaching, the leaves were beginning to turn red, and this created a picturesque scene. The rustling leaves in the gentle breeze also made for a serene atmosphere. The children were enthralled as they ran around and marveled at its beauty. “Wow! Look at this leaf, Night. It’s so pretty and red,” Star exclaimed while she waved a red maple leaf she had picked up. Not far away, Amy smiled as she watched them play. It had been a long time since she had such a peaceful outing. Ever since the Green family kicked her out, she had been constantly struggling to make a living. Standing under a t

After dinner, the group decided not to head to the hot springs immediately. They needed time for their food to digest. Given Aiden’s condition, Amy and the children stayed in his room to pass the time. “Mr. Lewis, can you watch a movie with us?” the children asked with pleading eyes. After Aiden agreed to it, Nolan found a suitable movie for them. Amy sat beside Aiden, and they all watched the film together. Once the movie ended, they prepared to go to the hot springs. Aiden took Night with him, while Amy went with Star to the opposite side. The hot spring pools were separated by a wooden wall, which allowed for some privacy but still facilitated conversation. It was a thoughtful design by the hotel. With her hair wrapped up, Amy slowly helped Star into the warm water. “Mommy, this water feels so nice,” Star said. Her eyes seemed to be filled with wonder as she looked around. Amy guided her toward a part of the pool with an artificial rock formation and smiled. “Does it

As Aiden massaged her, his gaze intensified. However, Amy did not notice it. At this moment, all her attention was on her ankle because it hurt so much. She gripped her towel tightly but could not help letting out a muffled groan. “Urgh. It hurts…” “Hang in there. It’ll be better soon,” Aiden reassured her in a hoarse voice. Amy’s cheeks turned red, as she felt embarrassed by the sound she had made. She nodded and bit her lip to stay silent. Seeing Amy in pain, Night and Star each took one of her hands. “Don’t be afraid, Mommy. We’re here with you.” “Just hold on, Mommy. It’ll pass soon.” Their comforting words touched Amy, and the pain in her ankle became more bearable. After about five minutes, Aiden stopped massaging her ankle. “That should make it better,” he said before gently placing her foot on the couch. Amy was sweating a little after enduring all that pain. Feeling the cool sensation on her leg, she looked at him gratefully. “Thank you, Mr. Lewis.” “

Westview Resort was a vacation destination that the Lewis family had spent years developing, and it had just been completed. This was no secret in Cloud City. Knowing that Aiden would surely visit the resort on the opening day, she had planned on getting a voucher from Rose. She wanted to use this opportunity to get closer to Aiden at the resort. However, she never expected Aiden to visit the resort so early and even bring Amy along. “Why did he bring that woman? Why?” Cassie tightened her grip on her phone and furrowed her brows. She could not understand it. Or rather, she dared not delve too deeply into it. It was impossible for Aiden to prefer a single mother over her, right? Although Cassie found this unlikely, she did not want to remain passive any longer. No matter what, she had to find a way to stop Aiden from getting closer to that woman. With that in mind, she put her phone away and looked for Eliza. “Mom, are you asleep?” She knocked on the door. After a momen
