“Daddy! Why does every boy wear panties?” Celia asked while looking at her father’s near-naked figure.


    Her mother and aunt were naked, and so was she! However, Alex still had a piece of cloth, even if they were about to dip into royal baths. Wouldn’t his clothes get wet and be ufortable?


    Of course, Alex didn’t wear panties but boxer briefs.


    He smiled and replied, “Those are called boxer briefs. And every boy wears them because every boy wears them.”


    “Eh?” Celia tilted her head, not really understanding her father.


    Alex chuckled, “They don’t feel ufortable and stick pretty close to my body. It feels good to wear them in the water.”


    “Should I pick up my swimsuit too?” Celia asked.


    “No need,” Alex shook his head.


    He didn’t know how he should talk about this topic with Celia. He didn’t want to say something wrong or give a bad idea to his daughter. He nced toward Sara and Ste, but these two were in their own world.


    Sara was particrly talkative and happy that her sister had developed thoughts about bing a mother and better aunt. She was amazed at Alex’s train of thoughts and how he directed her to Celia first.


    With the little duhan by her side, Ste surely would learn a lot about kids and how to take care of them. Sara also found it easier to exin some stuff.


    “Swimmingpetition! Swimmingpetition!” Celia quickly changed the topic, clenching her little fists tightly and waving them around with excitement.


    Fortunately, she didn’t press the former topic. It wasn’t as interesting as the swimmingpetition that soon would unfold in the royal bath.


    And even though Sara and Ste wouldn’t participate in it, Celia had her good friends as rivals.


    Two wolves stood next to her, clearly not fond of the water. They looked as if someone forcefully dragged them here.


    Alex sent apologetic eyes at two wolves, who let out faint growls in return. He then picked up Celia and brought her to the shower.


    He whispered, “We have to wet our bodies first.”


    “Yes, daddy,” Celia nodded, keeping her excitement in check.


    Even though she wanted to jump straight into the pool, Celia was a good child. She took that after her mother, who was also a responsible woman. She knew that her father always thought about her safety and good-being.


    After water fell onto her hair, Celia closed her eyes, waiting patiently.


    Alex also took a shower, sometimes picking at Sara and Ste. They were in their world, yet nothing stopped Alex from taking a peek at them. And seeing them both like that brought immense content to Alex’s heart.


    He realized that he was truly in love with them.


    He then nced at two wolves, “I apologize again.”


    Woof…


    These two growled in tandem.


    After the shower, Alex, Celia, and two wolves stood before the pool. They prepared themselves for the first race, ready to win it all. The first victor would get some break and be excluded from the second race, so the two wolves became rivals, prepared to ovee their boundaries.


    “Do you two really hate water this much?” Alex sent a peculiar look while his daughter couldn’t even notice her friends’ feelings.


    She wanted everyone to race andpete with her.


    Alex threw another apology before saying, “Three… Two… One… Go!”


    Everyone except Alex jumped straight to the pool. He didn’t follow them immediately because he knew he would win with his strength and higher level.


    But then, Alex noticed two wolves.


    Woof! Woof! Woof!


    They growled like beasts, moving their paws quickly. Like an unstoppable train, they were fast going forward as fast as possible. They didn’t care about otherdies, their best friend, and even Alex.


    They just wanted to be done with the race.


    “Those guys!” Alex facepalmed himself before plunging into the water.


    Using his wind skills, Alex propelled himself forward. He instantly caught up with Celia, then using the same magic, Alex helped her take the first ce. Of course, he used it covertly, not letting Celia realize the truth.


    In her excitement, Celia also wouldn’t be able to find out about it. She was also too weak to even notice something off.


    “I won! Mom! Aunt! I won! Hehe!” Celia jumped on the other side of the pool, happily waving her little hands to Sara and Ste.


    These two beautifuldies reciprocated with dazzling smiles, then returned to their talk.


    After Ubo and Bo caught up, the wolves fell onto the ground, seemingly dead. They breathed with their tongues out, hoping that someone would provide them some water or energy.


    Alex was indeed the savior who fulfilled their wishes.


    He congratted Celia while tending to these two wolves, “Our princess can now watch from the side. You will learn a lot by watching these two.”


    Celia hugged Alex’s arm, “Daddy has to win now too!”


    “I will,” Alex brightly smiled; his words caused two wolves to choke.

    In a different pool, Sara and Ste had an overly pleasant talk.


    “Although it seems like Celia likes to eat everything, she is actually a picky eater. The best way is to chomp food into small pieces and hide what she doesn’t like in the food. If she genuinely dislikes the food, then we can only give up.


    But you will be surprised to find out how she actually likes it,” Sara reminisced about her first struggle while feeding her daughter.


    On her side, Ste nodded, “Ok.”


    Sara then turned her eyes to Alex and Celia. Seeing them like that, her heart thumped with pride and contentment.


    She smiled faintly, “A lot has happened. What will I learn when Schnee returns?”


    There was more than Ste’s change and Alex’s break up. Alex decided to share all of this with Sara after Schnee returned.


    He didn’t want to repeat that news, and he believed that Schnee would be able to help Sara cope better with the news.


    After all, Sara believed in her father. She would give him a second chance.


    Would she still think the same after learning the truth?


    “Daddy won!” Celia’s voice halted all Sara’s thoughts. She no longer thought about what Alex and Ste had learned during her absence.


    She smiled at her happy daughter, then tickled Ste’s sides, “Ste… You look much sexier now that you lost your cherry.”


    “Really?” Ste asked.


    “Yes,” Sara chuckled, bringing her face closer, “I want to check it all.”


    These two had their sisterly bonding.
