"She said that you and Summer are like father and daughter," Sky muttered while glancing away.

Receiving such an answer, Louis fell silent. After one blink, his head leaned closer to Sky.

"Then why are your eyes red? Have you been crying?" he asked.

Sky flinched. She blinked quickly, hoping her tears would disappear. "No. Why would I cry?"

"Don't deny it. Your eyes are watery."

"It's just because I didn't get enough sleep. My eyes feel sore from the wind," Sky fanned her face.

"You're in the car, Sky. How could you be exposed to the wind?" Louis replied.

"Don't you see? Your car window is open. The wind can come in and hit my eyes."

Suddenly, Summer's sweet voice interrupted their argument. "Uncle Louis, did you forget about me? Get in the car quickly!"

Louis turned his head. Seeing Summer kneeling on her seat with her hands on her hips, his lips curved again.

"Okay!" He rushed around the car and sat behind the wheel.

Seeing Louis start the engine, Sky's eyes widened. "Where are we goi

    "Summer!" Sky exclaimed as she stuck her head out the window. "Why did you go there?""I'm going to catch up with the horses, Mommy. Aren't we going to be cowboys after this? We can't lose track of them!" the toddler replied without turning around. Her voice grew softer as the distance between them grew wider."Is that the field where the horses were released?" Sky asked while Louis was parking the car at the side of the lane."I think so.""Then, we have to stop her. It could be bad if she meets a horse. She could get kicked or stepped on!" Sky said anxiously."Yeah, that's what I thought."Louis and Sky got out of the car and ran after her. Instead of stopping, Summer increased her speed. Her mischievous laughter filled the air."Come after me, Mommy, Uncle! If you can catch me, I'll treat you to ice cream!" Summer shouted in a very cute voice.Sky became even more restless. "We don't need your ice cream, Honey. Come here right now! Don't go anywhere else! You could get kicked by the

    While cleaning the mud on Summer's arms, Louis answered, "Yeah, I think that was the most memorable adventure of mine. It was the first moment I was amazed by your mother. She was really great. Even though she was still little, she was already good at shooting. She knew how to read directions in the forest, and she was very good at guiding me and Emily during the trip. No wonder she's a great tour guide now."Hearing the last sentence, Sky's lips stiffened. Her heart was pounding, her eyes widened.How did Louis know it? Could he have secretly looked for information about her? Did he still care about her?"How did you know that I'm working as a tour guide, Louis? As far as I can remember, I've never told you," she asked, a bit hesitantly.Louis froze. He couldn't possibly reveal that he had read all the books written by Sky last night."Isn't it obvious? Your dream since childhood was to become an independent adventurer and the best tour guide, like your mother. Besides, Summer once me

    "Louis," Sky called after Summer managed to take off her sweater and run back to the bathroom. "Can I answer your question tonight? Also, there's something important we have to talk about in private. For now, let's just have fun. I also have to take care of Summer."Louis' expression instantly turned serious. His handsomeness radiated more clearly with such a calm look in his eyes."Okay," he replied, half hesitantly. "I'll wait for your explanation."Then, with a small smile, Sky went to the bathroom. Louis kept staring at her back with mixed feelings. He felt guilty towards Grace again. However, he also couldn't ignore his curiosity. Besides, isn't it better to resolve the past before starting something new?***Summer's laughter echoed as Louis came out of the bathroom in the cowboy costume. She jumped up and down happily, hugging Louis when the man arrived in front of her."Uncle Louis, thank you for wearing the same costume as me. It makes me feel like you're really my father!"Lo

    "Are you actually a cowboy shepherd or a sheriff?" Louis joked."I'm an all-round cowboy!" Summer nodded firmly. "I can herd cattle and also uphold justice. I'm a smart and wise little cowboy! That's why ...."The toddler let the cuffs hang on Louis' left hand. Then, she put her hands on her hips, exclaiming loudly, "I only cuff one of your hands right now. You still have to control the horse. But, once we get back to the stable, I'm going to cuff both of your hands and take you to court. You have to be punished for the crimes you've committed, Uncle Louis!"While Louis shook his head in resignation, Summer narrowed her eyes at her mother. "That's why, Mommy, be careful! Don't make any mistakes. You could end up like Uncle Louis."Sky snorted slightly. "It's no use threatening me, Honey. I am a good person. I won't do anything bad.""Don't be too confident, Mommy. I'll keep an eye on you. Oh, Mommy, Uncle Louis," Summer's attention was suddenly drawn to a large pool of water."Is that

    Sky couldn't believe that the key was missing. She checked Summer's pockets herself. Finding nothing, she sighed in disbelief, "You're not kidding, right, Honey? You didn't deliberately hide the key so that Mommy and Uncle Louis would stay close, did you?"Louis spontaneously glanced over. He didn't expect Sky to give such an honest opinion."No, Mommy. I have promised not to be a naughty child. I've also promised to take good care of Mr. Rodriguez's gift. Could the key have fallen out while we were riding the horses?"While Sky sighed in resignation, Louis answered casually. "That could've happened. You were so active back then. Maybe the key got pushed out while you were petting Dusty.""Then what should we do now? How can we go back with our hands like this?" Sky pointed at their hands with round eyes.Summer knew the meaning of that expression. Her mother was really panicking."Maybe, Mommy and Uncle Louis can ride side by side," the toddler said softly. Her head was slightly lower

    Summer blinked at Louis' back from her slightly lagging horse. She wondered what the man and Sky were talking about. She couldn't hear any sound."Hey, Straw," Summer whispered to her horse, "can you walk a little faster? I want to see what Uncle and Mommy are doing."Summer waited for a while. However, the horse she was riding was still walking slowly."Oh, what should I do to make the horse go faster?" Summer started to think."Should I move my legs like when I rode Dusty? He ran because I was kicking his stomach. If I press Straw's stomach a little, maybe he won't run, just walk faster. Should I try it?"After tapping her chin a few times, Summer finally dared herself. She moved her legs once. Unexpectedly, her method worked."Good, Straw. Let's catch up with Dusty!" she whispered, excitedly. Her head leaned forward. She couldn't wait to see her mother.At that moment, Louis' head moved closer to Sky's face. When Summer arrived at their side, Louis and Sky's lips were only an inch a

    Seeing the pouting little face, Louis changed his mind. "Then, is there any wire I can use? I think I can pry the keyhole and turn it.""No, Uncle. If the keyhole is broken, I won't be able to use the handcuffs anymore," Summer said softly."If your handcuffs are broken, Mommy can replace them with new ones, Honey," Sky stroked her hair, hoping that Summer would be willing to free her from Louis.However, the little girl kept shaking her head. "Those are special gifts for me, Mommy. They can't be replaced with others. Even if Mommy buys the same model, it's still different.""Do you have the heart to see Mommy and Uncle Louis restrained like this?" Sky showed the handcuff on her wrist with a pitiful face.Summer pouted. "Please be patient, Mommy. It won't be long. Only until the evening. We can wait here while doing other things.""What other things do you mean, Little Human?" Louis asked, full of anticipation."Mr. Rodriguez said that he provides lodging for visitors who want to rest

    "Why are you acting like an innocent girl? You already have a child, Sky," Louis said after he zipped up his pants again.Sky stopped singing. She didn't dare to open her eyes even though Louis had pressed the flush button."So what if I already have a child? That doesn't mean I'm used to men," she grumbled in annoyance.Louis smiled wryly. "Okay. Then do it quickly."Sky's eyes widened instantly. "Do what?" she asked in a choked voice."What else?" Louis glanced down.Thinking Louis was asking her to do something indecent, Sky's legs closed together. Her face turned into a boiled crab."Louis, are you crazy? You have a girlfriend, and we are only friends. But you dare to ask me to do it?" Sky sighed in disbelief.Receiving such a scolding, Louis' eyebrows arched high. A second later, he burst out laughing. With his free hand, he flicked Sky's forehead."You said you're not used to men, but why are your thoughts so dirty? What did I tell you to do?"Sky blinked. Her brows furrowed in c

    Suddenly, Louis grabbed Sky's hand and pulled her behind the wall next to the door. At that moment, the sound of a sensor was heard. When the door opened, Louis hit the hand that was pointing a gun forward. It easily fell to the floor."You!" Pablo was wide-eyed. He launched a counterattack. However, Louis blocked it effortlessly.The two men then competed in strength. Fortunately, Louis was superior. After a while, he managed to bend Pablo down, and the security officers arrived in the room."Sir, please arrest him! He has been working with Draco and Angelica. He is the one who framed me and my husband!" Sky pointed with round eyes.Two officers moved closer to Pablo. However, instead of securing the criminal, they arrested Louis. Sky was wide-eyed watching Pablo free."Sir, you have the wrong person! It is not my husband you should arrest, but your teammate! He is not an ordinary security officer, but a criminal!" Sky shouted loudly.Seeing her confusion, Pablo laughed faintly. With

    Louis put the tray on the table with great caution. Not because he was afraid of spilling the food, but because he was afraid that Draco would attack suddenly.Fortunately, Draco did not realize his disguise. Louis turned to help Sky. That's when Draco cleared his throat."Please put the tray here," he pointed to the bed beside him.Louis and Sky spontaneously glanced over. Their eyes were fixed on Draco's strange way of standing. His leg was clearly still sore.Not wanting to arouse suspicion, Louis nodded. He followed Draco's order. But when he was putting the tray on the bed, Draco spoke, "Wait."Louis froze. Sky also held her breath."Are you an intern?" he asked Sky.Sky nodded."What's your name?" Draco's eyes narrowed.Realizing that Draco was starting to get suspicious, Louis finally took action. He attacked him, bending both of his knees so that he groaned in pain.At that moment, Sky gagged Draco's mouth with a cloth. Then, while Louis held Draco's hands behind his waist, sh

    "How was it?" Louis asked when they met in their cabin again."Pablo searched around here," Sky pointed to a row of cabins, one floor below theirs.Louis patted his wife's shoulder proudly. "Good, Sky. You are the best."Then, Louis took his laptop. He checked the CCTV footage of the ship on that floor. It wasn't difficult for him to gain access.Not long after, he found CCTV footage that had a time gap. Previously, they only found CCTV footage of when Draco came out of their room with a limping leg that was bandaged carelessly. He was last seen when he entered the elevator.But then, Draco seemed to have never left the elevator. Even though Louis checked the CCTV on every floor, the criminal was nowhere to be found.Now, with the oddness of the CCTV footage, they had a new clue."I knew it! They couldn't have manipulated all the cameras perfectly. There must have been something missed," he exclaimed happily.Sky looked closer. She checked the time gap that Louis had found. "Wow! How

    "Oh? Why is Mommy calling so early? Shouldn't they still be in the Drake Passage? What does she want to report if she hasn't met the penguins yet?" she muttered before pressing the phone to her chubby cheek."Good morning, Mommy," she greeted sweetly."Morning, Honey. Have you washed your face?"Summer nodded. "Yeah, I was just about to go see River. We were planning to prepare breakfast together. Sandwiches that are rich in nutrients and fiber! We'll put lots of vegetables in them!"Sky chuckled at her daughter's cheerfulness. That's when Louis joined in, "Good morning, Summer. You sound really excited today.""Morning, Daddy! Yes, I'm excited because I'm sure it's going to be a beautiful day. How about you two? Are you having fun?"Louis and Sky exchanged glances. After a silent discussion, Sky finally opened the conversation, "Summer, can we ask you something?"Summer's eyes widened. Her mother rarely spoke in such a serious tone. "What's up, Mommy?""What did you do with River yes

    That day, they spent the rest of the night in their own cabin. There were no security officers guarding the door after they moved. When morning came, Sky was ready with the scenario that Louis had designed. She went alone to meet Angelica."What do you want here? Insult me? Announce that you have won?" Angelica greeted her sarcastically.Sky shook her head slowly. "I came here to ask. Why did you do that?""Do what?""Trap Louis. Who ordered you?" Sky put on a curt look.Angelica's lips pursed. "No one. I myself want your husband. You don't deserve him."Sky snorted. Her lopsided smile looked mysterious. "How much did he pay you?""Pay what?" Angelica raised her eyebrows."If you tell me the truth, I can double the fee. Or, do you want to move up a class? Louis can help you get into a more famous magazine."&nb

    "Okay. We'll do it right away," the security officer said before leaving to carry out his duties. Sky was finally able to lay Louis on the bed."Does your head still hurt?" she whispered while stroking his hair.Louis nodded. Sky smiled slightly. She didn't expect the incident five years ago to repeat. She managed to save Louis from a wild woman again."Then, sleep. You'll be better after you wake up.""Please stay," Louis asked while holding her hand.Sky smiled amusedly. "I'm not going anywhere. Just sleep.""Okay."While putting Sky's hand on his chest, Louis fell asleep again. Sky could only stare at his handsome face in silence."The scenario played by Draco and Angelica is similar to what happened before. Is the mastermind behind this incident the same person? But, Kendrick is in prison. How could he hire people

    Angelica glanced at Sky cynically. Seeing what Sky was pointing at her, she grimaced."Damn it," she cursed.As she could not accept that her mission had failed so quickly, she opened the drawer and grabbed a gun. She thought that was the only way to get rid of Sky.But it turned out, when she wanted to attack, Sky was already so close. In just one movement, Sky managed to grab the gun from her."You!" Angelica's anger boiled. She was on the verge of despair."Just surrender, Angelica. Whatever you do, you can't take Louis from me," Sky said firmly.That was when the security officers came. Seeing Sky pointing a gun, they all stared wide-eyed. "Mrs. Harper?""I'm not the bad guy here, but she is! She kidnapped my husband!" Sky shouted without lowering her gun. She did not want to be off guard.Suddenly, Angelica put o

    Draco laughed softly. "Stop bluffing, Sky. You don't even know how to use a gun. How can you possibly shoot?"Sky checked the bullets in the gun. After making sure the ammunition was ready, she threatened, "I'm not bluffing. I am indeed good at shooting. If you don't want to regret it, you better put both your hands behind your head and kneel in the corner over there."Draco glanced at the corner that Sky mentioned. He sneered, "That's not my place, Sky. My place is on the bed. With you."Draco stepped forward. At that moment, Sky fired a bullet into his thigh. In an instant, the sound of an explosion echoed. Draco's groan followed."Sky? You shot me?" he groaned furiously."Didn't I remind you? It's your fault you didn't listen," Sky cursed as she reloaded the gun. "If you don't want to get a second wound, don't stop me from saving my beloved husband. Understood?"As Draco gritted his teeth, Sky quickly got out. She ran towards the hallway where Draco had approached her. There, she s

    "Please give me a chance to be with you. Just once, that's enough. I can prove that I'm sincerer. My love is bigger than his," Draco said, pleadingly.Sky stepped back, pushing away the hand that was holding her arm. "You don't need to prove anything, Drac. I'm happy with Louis. If you're sincere with me, please don't bother us. You said you wanted me to be happy, right?""But not like this," Draco approached, but Sky kept her distance. "I'm not happy if you fall into his arms. He's no better than me. It's not fair if he's the one with you."Sky shook her head again. Her mouth muttered, "You're crazy, Drac. There are still many great women out there. Why are you targeting me? I am married and have a child!""Because all this time, you're the only one in my heart. You're the only one who can disturb my mind. What can I do to get you?" Draco looked desperate.Sky snorted in displeasure. "I think you've misunderstood, Drac. Your feelings are not sincere towards me. It's not love, but obs
