Chapter 837 "Do you want that kind of mom then?" Gabriel asked.
"Of course I want one like that! I wish Mommy could play with me, cto my school events, and cuddle withat night while I sleep..." Wilhelm went on, not noticing the growing seriousness in Gabriel's gaze. Gabriel finally smiled and started the car, assuring Wilhelm, "Don't worry. I'll make sure you have the kind of mom you dream of." Wilhelm's eyes lit up, but a hint of disappointment crept into his expression as he murmured, "But... Mommy is really busy and hardly has tfor me..." "She'll have time," Gabriel promised.
"Really?" Wilhelm asked, his tone hopeful.

Damon had asked Spencer to prepare everything for their hike on Friday afternoon, so after breakfast, he set off right away with Nyla and Mason to hike in a nearby city.
Since there were no mountains in the center of Saintornia, they headed to one that stood a few hundred meters high in Tempornia.
After parking at the foot of the mountain, Damon opened the trunk and pulled out two backpacks-one large and one small.
He slung the larger one over his shoulder and handed the smaller one to Mason. "This is your bag, filled with snacks and water. You'll carry it while we hike. If it gets too heavy, I'll help you." Mason put the backpack on right away, looking up at Damon with confidence. "Daddy, I'm a man too. I can handle it!" Damon couldn't help but smile. "Okay, I believe you." They had chosen a mountain called Mount Trifall, which usually had a fair number of local visitors.
However, with the light drizzle today, they were the only ones there.
en Nyla had never taken Mason hiking before, so he was excited and curious about everything around him.
Watching him hop ahead, Nyla reminded him to slow down and be careful. The trails were equipped with handrails to ensure visitor. safety, so she wasn't worried about him falling- just that he might trip.
Damon walked beside Nyla, smiling as he said, "Don't worry too much Buddy is already five. We rarely get talone with him, so let's enjoy thi hike together." As he spoke, he took her hand.
His hand was warm and dry, enveloping hers completely.

The warmth radiated from their touch and sent a wave of heat m straight to her heart, leaving her feeling tingly all over. Nyla tried to pull her hand away, but Damon held on tightly.
"Hold on toso you don't fall later," he teased.
"I won't fall, I" Before Nyla could finish, she stepped on @rock and stumbled sideways.
In an instant, Damon pulled her into his arms, her face colliding with his e.
chest. It was so firm! Nyla felt a sharp pain in her nose, and tears sprang to her eyes.
Rubbing her sore nose, she huffed. "Is your chest made of bricks? Why is it so hard?" Damon chuckled. "I have an even harder spot. Want to try?" Nyla froze, and her hand stoped mid-rub, her face and ears turning a deep shade of red.
