    Luisa’s face lit up with joy, and she eagerly followed Lucinda upstairs.


    In the living room, the three men exchanged awkward nces.


    Cyrus and Sonny were unsure about their cooking abilities.


    They could only offer little help.


    The atmosphere was a bit embarrassing.

    Sonny and Cyrus burst intoughter.


    Cyrus remarked, “She’s as cunning as Hilliard, full of schemes.


    ”


    Sonny chimed in, “If she wrote a manual on how to turn a man into a good husband, it would probably be a bestseller.


    ”


    The three men shared a heartyugh, creating a harmonious atmosphere.


    Men found contentment in simple pleasures.


    They bonded over the smallest details of their lives and made friends effortlessly.


    When the food was ready, Nathan called for Lucinda and Luisa to join them downstairs.


    The five of them enjoyed a tasty meal together.


    An hourter, in the early hours of the morning, darkness nketed the city, and everywhere was still, except for the bustling N&L Fairy Land.


    Cyrus drowned his sorrows in alcohol.


    He was so drunk.


    His eyes were red.


    He clung to Nathan’s arm and repeatedly murmured, “Noelle, it’s my fault.


    Please forgive me.
