Chapter 405

“Mommy, I want to play this! Aster exclaimed, pointing at a ride.

“Mommy, that looks really fun!” he said, pointing at another attraction.

“Mommy, let’s go wait in line!” he shouted excitedly.

Aster was a fearless child who was willing to try out all the rides. Unfortunately, Larissa did not have the

courage and physical stamina to keep up with him.

After accompanying him on a rollercoaster ride, Larissa felt dizzy and nauseous even after taking a

long break.

Aster was bothered by Larissa’s discomfort and refused to go on any mare rides.

Seeing his worried expression, Larissa felt even more guilty for ruining the mood for Aster.

She forced herself to stand up and said, “Aster, what else do you want to play? I will keep you

company!TM his he

However, Aster shook his head. He pulled Larissa down on a seat to rest. “I don’t want to play

anymore. I just want to sit here for a while.”

Although Aster said he wanted to sit down, Larissa knew very well that he was doing it for her sake.

Tm fine. You can go and play by yourself,” she said, trying to reassure him.

Suddenly, Dylan appeared out of nowhere.

Before Larissa could react, he had already grabbed Aster’s hand.

“Alright, you stay here and rest. Aster, Uncle Dylan will play with you!”

Aster was obviously tempted by Dylan’s invitation, but he was caught in a dilemma. Biting his

lower lip, he hesitated out of concern for Larissa.

Larissa couldn’t bear to see him unhappy, so che decided to put aside her questions for Dylan.

She told Aster, “Go with Uncle Dylan. I will be fine after taking a rest here.”

After a moment, Aster nodded slowly. 1/3

“Okay. Mommy, don’t go anywhere. Wait for me right here!” He instructed Larissa before leaving with

Dylan

Staring after both figures as they grew smaller and smaller until they blended into the crowd, an

absurd thought crossed Larissa’s mind.

Perhaps she should find a father for Aster.

An hour later, Aster and Dylan reappeared in front of Larissa

Aster was holding a large piece of cotton candy and running towards her, his short legs moving as fast

as they could.

He rushed up to her and plopped onto her lap

“Mommy, this is for you!” He happily presented the cotton candy to her.

Aster’s chubby cheeks were flushed red from playing and running so wildly just now.

His face was covered with large droplets of sweat, making his wet bangs stick to his forehead.

“Thank you,” Larissa said as she accepted the cotton candy

She retrieved some tissue and wiped the sweat off Aster’s face. “Did you have fun with Uncle Dylan?”

Aster replied immediately, “Yes, I did!”

Using his fingers, he counted off the number of rides that Dylan took him on and described his exciting

experience in an exaggerated manner.

Larissa’s eyes were wide open as she listened attentively to Aster, occasionally offering him words of

encouragement

Watching the interaction between mother and son, Dylan thought of the man who was anxiously

waiting for his update at the hospital.

He couldn’t help but curse inwardly, “Serves him right!”

He had brought this upon himself, and he had to bear the consequences. No amount of regret or

heartache would change anything!

By noon, the sun was high up in the sky, and the weather was gradually getting warmer outside.

Dylan suggested, “Let’s have lunch first and continue playing later.”

Aster glanced longingly at the pirate ship ride not too far away.

Sensing his reluctance, Larissa deliberately spoke up, I’m feeling a little hungry too.”

Aster agreed immediately. “Alright, let’s go and have lunch!”
