Lysander felt the soft, innocent kiss of the child on his cheek. It was a sweet sensation as if honey had been spread across his heart, a warmth spreading within him.
The sticky residue on his cheek did not matter.
"Alright, let's clean you up, and then we can get going," Lysander advised, placing Elowen down.
"Okay, I'm going to wash up and visit Mom," Elowen immediately stopped crying and cheerfully agreed, taking Fitch's hand and letting him lead her to the bathroom to wash up.
Fitch's emotions had been a roller coaster. From the tense moment when Lysander had first entered the room to the panic when Elowen smeared her runny nose on him, to the satisfaction and joy he now felt.
Lysander truly was patient with the children. He did not get mad at their mischievousness or angry when Elowen dirtied his clothes.
Fitch had never seen Lysander tolerate someone dirtying his clothes, let alone with a pleasant expression.
Fitch, holding Elowen's hand, led her to wash up.
Meanwhile, Lysander went upstairs to clean himself up and change.
When he returned, the children were already sitting on the sofa. Four pairs of bright, innocent eyes were eagerly awaiting him.
They had transformed from being playful to being well-behaved.
"Let's go," Lysander said, leading them out.
The children hopped off the sofa one by one, following him like little ducklings.
Lysander drove the car himself, with Atticus in the passenger seat and the three little ones in the backseat.
The black Rolls Royce sliced through the neon night, heading towards the Vibrant Oasis Residences.
