Chapter 186

Debra’s eyes lit up at the idea. She eagerly asked. “So, what are same special dishes here in Daprein?”

Hayden smiled and replied, “There are a few great restaurants. We should check them out.”

“I really want to try the food here! I don’t come to Daprein often so I haven’t eaten much,” Debra said happily.

“What kind of food?” Lillian chimed in, clearly curious.

“It’s delicious!” Kevin said, not knowing much but eager to join in

Looking at Lillian and Kevin, Stacey felt helpless. They didn’t know anything about the food, but they were good at joining the chat. Let’s go together!” she suggested with a bright smile.

Stacey went inside, grabbed some toddler leashes, and helped Lilian and Kevin strap them on to keep the kids from wandering off. After packing her bag, she led them outside.

Lillian and Kevin were thrilled. They rushed ahead, their little legs moving as fast as they could. Without the toddler leashes, they surely would have sprinted away. They took the elevator down, left the hotel, and hopped in the car for a food adventure.

The ingredients here were different from what they were used to back home in Zentiscape, and the restaurant decor was a whole new experience. Lillian and Kevin explored the place, checking everything out with wide–eyed curiosity.

Stacey handed the toddler leashes to the maids, Gwen and Marie, so they could keep a watchful eye on the kids while Stacey could take a little breather.

“How long are you all staying in Daprein?” Hayden asked with a smile. There’s a famous amusement park in Nostralis. If you’re interested, you could take Lillian and Kevin there.”

Debra nodded vigorously. “Yes! I looked it up before we came. Everyone says you have to take the kids to that amusement park in Nostralis. They won’t regret it!”

“Absolutely,” Hayden agreed, grinning.

“Have you brought Jeremy here before?” Stacey asked, curious about their past experiences.

Hayden nodded. “Yes, I have. I actually have a lot of photos from our trip. Want to see?” He smiled, excited to share. Debra’s eyes sparkled with excitement. “Yes! Show me! Jeremy must have been adorable.”

Hayden pulled out his phone, opened the album, and found all the photos from his trip to the amusement park with Jeremy.

Lillian and Kevin, noticing the excitement, scampered back and climbed onto the sofa, their tiny hands flailing in excitement.

Marie and Gwen quickly hoisted the kids up so they could see better on the sofa.

“Grandma, I want to see too!” Lillian whined, trying to peek around Debra, who was blocking her view.

Kevin, feeling the same urgency, tugged at Stacey to get closer.

Both Debra and Stacey turned at the same time, each scooping up a little one, organizing them so all four could enjoy the photos of Jeremy at the amusement park

“Look, it’s Jeremy!” Kevin shouted with glee when he saw Jeremy in one of the photos.

Stacey squeezed Kevin’s hand and smiled. “Yes, that’s right.”

“Wow, this place looks amazing!” Lillian marveled, her eyes wide

“What’s that?” Kevin asked, pointing at a photo featuring Jeremy by the Ferris wheel.

“I know! That’s the Ferris wheel!” Lillian responded excitedly. Tve seen it on TV before. It looks beautiful!”

As they waited for their food, the kids were glued to Jeremy’s photos, gasping and giggling at every new sight.

“Do you both like the amusement park?” Hayden asked the kids with a warm smile.

“Yes!” Kevin shouted, bouncing in his seat.

“Me too!“–Lillian added, her face lighting up.

Debra smiled at the kids enthusiasm. “If you like it, we can go there tomorrow! Or maybe the day after tomorrow!”

“Wow, I can’t wait!” Lillian exclaimed.

“Me neither!” Kevin shouted eagerly.

Just then, the waiter brought out the food along with child seats for the kids. Stacey carefully placed them into the seats.

The moment they settled, Lillian and Kevin grabbed their spoons and dove into the feast. They attempted to serve their food to Hayden as if they were little waiters.

Hayden was taken aback, surprised by their eagerness to share. He quickly grabbed his bowl and pushed it towards the two

Stacey hesitated, ready to stop the children from making a mess. But seeing them serve Hayden, she held back and smiled instead.

“Thank you, Lillian. Thank you, Kevin,” Hayden said, grateful for their gesture.

Lillian said, “You’re welcome.”

Kevin shouted too, “Well, you’re welcome!”

Hayden smiled and said, “They’re well–mannered and polite.”

Stacey chuckled at the kids‘ antics and added, “They learned how to share food from Jeremy. He’s well–educated, smart, and polite too.”

Hayden was pleasantly surprised. He hadn’t realized that Lillian and Kevin would learn from Jeremy. “It sounds like they have a great bond,” he noted. The thought made Hayden smile–if the three kids got along well, they’d be happier together.

Debra agreed, saying, “Definitely, When Lillian and Kevin play together, they often bicker. But with Jeremy around, it’s different. They really like him and tend to listen to what he says!

In playful tones, Lillian and Kevin cheered. “Jeremy is awesome!

Seeing their excitement for Jeremy made Hayden feel good. This trip was starting to feel less like a business trip and more

like a mini vacation.

Hayden suggested with a smile, “We should let the three of them play together more often. Jeremy is older, so he can help teach them how to write.”

Debra’s eyes lit up at the idea. “That’s a great thought! How did you teach Jeremy to read? It’s amazing that he can write so well at just three years old.”
