Dawn and Benjamin hadn’t seen each other for two days, <i>so </i>of course, there were hugs and kisses and getting lifted into the air. The little guy was ridiculously sweet, clinging to her neck and acting spoiled.
“Dawn, I missed you so, so much.
“When you’re not with me, I can’t even sleep.
“I don’t eat well either. I’m not happy at all.”
Thinking about how he’d just been lying around like a little king earlier, Dawnughed. “Is that true, or are you just trying to fool me?”
“No, I’m not! I swear!”
Benjamin puffed out his cheeks, dead serious. “I wouldn’t lie to you!”
<i>Okay</i><i>, </i><i>it’s </i><i>a </i><i>tiny </i><i>bit </i><i>exaggerated</i>, <i>but</i><i>… </i>
<i>I’ve </i><i>really </i><i>been </i><iing </i><i>to </i>work <i>on </i><i>time </i><i>with </i><i>Daddy </i><i>every </i><i>day</i><i>, </i><i>and </i><i>I </i><i>really </i><i>am </i><i>not </i><i>sleeping </i><i>as </i><i>much </i><i>as </i><i>before</i>.
Dawn reluctantly nodded. She carried him as they walked outside. “Alright, then. If you miss me that much, how about youe live with me from now on and forget about your daddy, huh?”
The kid’s eyes instantly went wide.
“Of course not!”
“Why not?”
“Ethan isn’t my real Daddy. I want my real Daddy!”
He was young, but he understood people and rtionships perfectly well.
Benjamin pouted. “Besides, Daddy’s really good too. These two days, he didn’t spend time with me just because he’s busy with work. Look. He helped those men with so much stuff.”
Dawn didn’t argue. She just smiled and pinched his cheek.
“You always have an answer for everything.”

By then, they’d reached Aidan. She set Benjamin down and held his hand.

“You don’t have anything urgent right now, right? We’re going back to pack his things. I’m taking him to Eastcrest to stay with me tonight.”
She didn’t know why Aidan insisted on doing everything himself, but since he couldn’t look after Benjamin, at least Hannah and Tara would be there.
Aidan nced at her. “When are you bringing him back?”
“Huh?”
Dawn hadn’t thought that far. “When you’re done renovating, I guess.”
This ce technically belonged to Dawn, but Aidan was the one worrying about everything every day. It felt a little backward.
“How about we ask Benjamin?” Dawn looked down at the kid. “When do you want toe back?”
“I’lle back when I feel like it.”
Benjamin pursed his lips. “It’s not like I’m going abroad.”
Those two sentences made everyoneugh.
Aidan’s ce was close by. When they went to pack, Dawn noticed something was off between him and Victor.
<i>Do </i><i>they</i><i>… </i>know <i>each </i><i>other</i><i>? </i>
Downstairs, they started moving things.
Aidan just stood there, unmoving, letting Victor do all the hard work.
That rubbed her the wrong way.
Dawn raised her hand and tapped him. “It’s your son’s stuff. You’re not helping at all?”
The man shot her a cold look.
“Isn’t he also your son?”
“What…”

<i>What’s </i><i>up </i>with him <i>today</i><i>? </i>
Dawn gave him a strange look, but couldn’t read anything from his face.

After getting into the car, she finally asked what had been bothering her. “When I went to get Benjamin earlier, what were you and Aidan talking about?”
Victor nced at the rearview mirror and replied calmly, “Nothing much. Mr. Gardner just asked how I’d been living these three years.”
<i>Seriously</i><i>, </i><i>Aidan</i>?
<i>Why </i><i>did </i><i>he </i><i>ask </i><i>so </i><i>many </i><i>questions</i><i>? </i>
Seeing that Victor didn’t seem affected, Dawn smiled. “He’s a total straight–arrow ‘guy. He talks without thinking sometimes. Don’t take it to heart.”
Victor fell silent for two seconds, then said, “But Mr. Gardner invited me to help manage the club with him.”
Victor had been a bodyguard for years and had management skills. He really was a good candidate.
But…
“You two knew each other before?”
“No.”
<i>Then </i><i>why </i><i>would </i><i>Aidan </i><i>invite </i><i>him</i>?
As far as she remembered, that man didn’t like dealing with strangers.
Dawn couldn’t figure it out, so she simply texted Aidan. The reply was, “Just a guy helping out another guy.”
She stared at the message for a long time and felt even more confused.
“Forget it…”
She put her phone away and looked at Victor in the driver’s seat. “I was actually nning on that anyway. But this ce isn’t settled yet, so for now, just stay at thepany and learn from
Mason.”
Victor nodded slightly. “Okay, I understand.”

The moment they got out of the car, Tara rushed out. “Benjamin, sweetheart! I missed you to death!”
She pulled him into a tight hug. He almost couldn’t breathe.
She hugged him, kissed him, and sniffed his face. When she finally stopped, he spoke.
“Grandma, you’re hugging me a little too hard. Can you be gentler next time?”
Tara froze, then apologized with a guilty face.
“I’m sorry, darling. I just got too excited.”
“It’s okay.”
The two looked adorable together. Dawn smiled at the scene and turned to help Victor carry the rest of the things.
