The IV treatments were lengthy.


    By noon, about half of the IV fluid was still left.This content ? N?v/elDr(a)m/a.Org.


    Destinee, now hungry and crying, prompted Nathan to take her home for some milk, while Lucinda remained with Colby.


    Holding an umbre and carrying the crying Destinee, Nathan softlyforted her as they left theb.


    His tall, attractive figure, tenderly caring for his daughter, presented a heartfelt scene.


    As they left theb, Nathan noticed someone obstructing his path.


    Looking up, he saw a man with deep blue eyes that showed concern.


    His hands were clenched tightly, suggesting he was anxiously waiting for someone.


    The man stood in the rain without any protection.


    Although it was just a light rain, his elegant suit was drenched, showing he had been there for quite some time.

    Holding Destinee securely, Nathan halted and fixed his gaze on Kyson, evaluating him silently with a prating stare.


    Kyson advanced a few steps and bowed his head, concealing the guilt that flickered in his eyes.


    “Today marks the first birthday of the twins.


    I know you and Lucinda didn’t n anything borate, but I wanted to celebrate.


    I’ve brought them a cake and gifts,” Kyson began.


    He hesitated, and then continued, “I went to N&L Fairy Land, only to find out you’d taken them to theb for blood tests…”


    Pausing, he struggled to meet Nathan’s gaze.


    After a deep breath, he mustered the courage to ask, “Have the test resultse out? So… Colby and Destinee… How are they doing?”


    Nathan responded calmly, “Destinee is fine, but we found virus residues in Colby’s system.


    That’s why he was born weaker than her.


    Aldric exined that Colby is too young and frail to handle the antidote’s strength, and we can’t use a suppressant to ease the pain during his re-ups either.


    For now, we can only manage his condition with conservative treatments like infusions and medication.


    ”


    The calmer Nathan’s delivery, the heavier the weight pressed on Kyson’s heart.


    Kyson’s fists clenched tightly, his body trembling as he fought to contain the surge of guilt overwhelming him.


    He opened his mouth to speak, intending to justify his actions, to argue that the innocent children should never have been dragged into the disputes of adults.


    Yet, he knew any defense would be futile.


    After a long pause, he dropped his gaze and murmured with remorse, “I’m sorry.


    ”


    It seemed there was nothing more he could offer but his apology.


    Nathan’s voice was firm as he let Kyson stand alone in the rain.


    “You should apologize, but not to me—to Colby.


    You owe him that much.


    ”


    Kyson nodded, his voice heavy with regret.


    “You’re right.


    Hurting him is the biggest regret of my life.


    I’ll do everything in my power to make amends.


    ”


    Nathan remained silent, his expression unreadable and his eyes dark, yet notably free of resentment.


    After all, the past could not be undone.


    Even if he sought retribution against Kyson, it wouldn’t immediately heal Colby.


    Perhaps letting Kyson attempt to rectify his mistakes was the more pragmatic approach.


    In Nathan’s arms, Destinee seemed to recognize Kyson’s voice.


    She pushed aside the raincoat and turned to look at him with wide, watery eyes, her face lighting up with an innocent smile.
