Zachary glanced at Lenora for a moment before breaking into laughter. "Lenora, there's nothing funny about this. Even if you have work conflicts with Lola, you shouldn't be making such jokes."

No wonder Lola said that.

Even if Lola hadn't mentioned it beforehand, he still wouldn't believe it.

Lola had been with Fuller Group for several years. Her character and work capabilities were evident to all. Moreover, Lola had a boyfriend whom she had been dating for many years. There was no way she would be interested in him. Lenora fell silent, no longer speaking.

He simply doesn't believe me, so why bother pretending to care about me?

Right, he's good at acting. How could I have taken his worries seriously?

Just before the lunch break, Lenora received a message from Zachary: Come to my office for lunch. I've ordered your portion.

Lenora stared at the chat box and typed out a few words I'm going to eat in the cafeteria.

Her index finger hovered over the send button. After hesitating for a few seconds, she deleted the few words she had typed and replied: Okay.

When she arrived at Zachary's office, the coffee table in front of the couch was already laden with food.

Lenora stepped forward, noticing a familiar packaging next to the lunch box.

Seeing Lenora's gaze drift off to the side, Zachary said, "I got you that black forest cake you like. Save it for after lunch."

After a moment, Lenora realized that Zachary was trying to appease her with cake.

If it had been in the past, it would have certainly been helpful. But now, when she saw the black forest cake from Afternoon Delight, she couldn't even stomach her lunch.

She settled herself on the couch, keeping a wide berth from the bag containing the cake as if avoiding it like the plague.

Zachary sat across from her. Halfway through the meal, Lenora set down her fork and said, "I'm done."

Zachary looked up. "Is that all you're eating? Have a bit more. You didn't eat much this morning. You might end up malnourished."

Thinking of the child in her womb, Lenora forced herself to eat a bit more.

Thanks for the meal, Mr. Fuller," said Lenora, standing up to leave after finishing her lunch.

Zachary reminded her to take the cake with her.

Lenora looked at the bag on the table, a strong sense of resistance welling up within her.

She found herself utterly uninterested in the black forest cake.

She didn't like chocolate in the first place, replaceing it bitter-a bitterness that seemed to seep into her very heart.

However, it was already too late to say that she didn't like it.

Lenora bent over to pick up the cake, then returned to her own office.

When Milly walked in to deliver some documents, she was surprised to see the cake in Lenora's hand. "Ms. Wilkin, do you like the cakes from Afternoon Delight too?"

"No, someone gave it to me. If you want it, you can have it." Lenora stretched out her hand holding the paper bag.

Milly hesitated slightly. "That's not very nice, is it?"

"What's wrong with that? You must have been swamped with all the days I took off. Consider it as my way of rewarding you."

Milly broke into a smile, accepting the paper bag. Thank you, Ms. Wilkin."

When Zachary stepped out of the restroom and passed by the staircase, he overheard a woman's voice. "When did you buy this black forest cake from Afternoon Delight?"

"I didn't buy it. It was Ms. Wilkin's treat. She's such a kind person."

Zachary glanced toward the staircase.

One of the female employees was holding a paper bag from Afternoon Delight.

Lenora had given Milly the cake he bought for her.

All the medications and equipment Gerald needed had been fully prepared.

He could be discharged and return home.

Zachary and Lenora went to the hospital to pick him up and bring him back to the Fuller residence.

Upon reaching the entrance of the ward, Zachary suddenly halted.

Lenora accidentally bumped into his back. Rubbing her nose, she asked, "Why did you stop?"

Zachary turned to look at Lenora, then took her hand as they walked in together.

Lenora pursed her lips and took a deep breath. She walked into the ward with Zachary. "Grandpa."

Gerald was absolutely delighted, his face beaming with joy. He had been waiting on the couch. "You're here. Let's go home."

He hoisted himself up, leaning on his walking stick.

him. "Grandpa, be

"Don't worry."

Zachary didn't say much; instead, he moved to Gerald's other side to support him.

Gerald waved him off. "Relax, it's not like I've forgotten how to walk."

This time, George's assistant accompanied them back to the Fuller residence.

Johanne, concerned about Gerald, suggested that George's assistant stay at the Fuller residence for a while. after learning that Gerald wanted to go home. Gerald had no choice but to agree.

Upon arriving at the Fuller residence, he seemed to be in fairly good spirits.

Lenora and Zachary sat on the couch and engaged in conversation with the elderly couple.

Not long after, Johanne and Mallory arrived. They were accompanied by their son, Ryan Fuller.

Ryan, who was four years old then, was in kindergarten. His adorable appearance made him especially lovable.

With his small backpack slung over his shoulder, he first approached Gerald and Allison. "Grandpa, Grandma."

Gerald patted Ryan's head with affection. "Come here and let me hold you. Didn't you go to school today, Sweetheart?" "Mommy and Daddy said they were going to take me to see you. I want to be a good boy"

"You are, indeed! Sweetheart, do you recognize them? Gerald pointed at Lenora and Zachary

Ryan's round eyes were fixed on Lenora and Zachary Uncle Zachary! Aunt Lenora!"

"You have such a good memory. Come over here, Ryan Lenora called out, smiling warmly.

Ryan skipped over and sat down next to Lenora.

Lenora couldn't help but pinch Ryan's face, replaceing it incredibly soft.

"Aunt Lenora, please stop pinching me. I'm already a big kid now," Ryan pleaded, looking earnestly at

Lenora.

His expression made Lenora chuckle.

Allison said, "Ryan really likes you, Nora. I remember when he was little, he wouldn't let anyone hold him, except for you."

""Ryan is just too adorable. Who could resist a child like him?"

"He's not adorable. When he gets mischievous at home I feel like stuffing him back in," Mallory said.

"Nora, I see that you really love children. When do you and Zack plan on having kids?" Mallory asked.

We're on the topic of children again....

Lenora frowned slightly and glanced at Zachary.

Watching his energetic and charming nephew, Zachary found himself wondering what his and Lenora's child might look like.

Would they resemble me more or her?

Would they be more lively, or would they be quieter?

It would be best to have a daughter first. Girls are sweeter than boys....

With these thoughts, Zachary suddenly snapped back to reality.

What is wrong with me?

There are so many uncertainties surrounding our marriage. Why did I suddenly think about children?

Seeing that Zachary was silent, Lenora had no choice but to answer herself. "Zachary and I currently have no plans to have children. We'll talk about it in a couple of years." "That's right. You're both still young, so there's no need to hurry. Taking a few years to enjoy each other's company wouldn't be a bad idea at all."

Lenora lowered her head bashfully, a sense of helplessness lingering in her eyes.

She didn't know whether they were merely putting on a show or genuinely getting along, but at least they appeared to be in harmony.

Allison chuckled and asked, "Nora, where's the bangle Zack gave you last time? Why didn't you wear it?"
