A hush fell over the scene for a brief moment.


    Lindsey was surprised.


    It was hard to believe that a child as young as ine could be so captivated by a handsome man.


    She was surprised that ine had weed Domenic so readily.


    It was quite a contrast to the time when ine had bitten her hard during their first meeting.


    Frustration welled up in Lindsey as she crossed her arms and reluctantly remarked, “ine, you trust strangers too easily.


    You need to be careful and stay safe from any troublemakers.


    ”


    “But…” ine looked at Lindsey innocently and remarked, “But Aunt Lindsey, he seems much more dependable than you.


    He feels like a big brother to me.


    ”


    A pause settled between them.


    Out of the blue, a realization struck Lindsey, and she cast an irritated nce at ine.


    “Hold on a second.


    You called me as ‘Aunt Lindsey’ but he felt like a big brother to you?”


    ine responded, “Yes, my mom said you are Aunt Lindsey.


    ”


    “Then why does he feel like an elder brother to you?” Lindsey directed her finger towards Domenic.


    ine blinked and replied, “Well… it’s just the bond, you know.


    ”


    Then, ine hurried over to Domenic and affectionately hugged his legs.


    Lindsey found herself at a loss for words.


    It was unusual for Domenic to witness Lindsey in such a defeated state.


    She typically projected a stubborn and resilient image to others.


    As he observed her pursed her lips and let out a soft sigh, her bright eyes filled with helplessness, he couldn’t help but find her endearing.


    Today was an unprecedented moment when Lindsey found herself utterly speechless.


    Suddenly, she realized she shouldn’t take a little girl’s words too seriously.


    In any event, Domenic was no one who lost out, not Lindsey.


    With this in mind, Lindsey narrowed her eyes and shed a mischievous smile at Domenic.


    “Since you are like a big brother to ine, maybe you should address me as…”


    Before Lindsey could utter the words “Aunt Lindsey,” Domenic grinned and leaned in, whispering, “I didn’t anticipate you are a fan of role-y.


    What would you like me to call you?” I’ll y the role once we’re back home.This belongs to N?velDrama.Org - ?.


    ”


    A rosy hue instantly painted Lindsey’s face as she red at Domenic.


    With a grin, Domenic held ine’s hand with one of his and Lindsey’s with the other, leading them toward the amusement park.


    Lindsey nced at Domenic, finding his unusually soft behavior today made her heart flutter more than usual.


    They reached the “Spinning Barrels” amusement ride.


    Lindsey stopped, thinking it was more appropriate for kids.


    She turned to ine with enthusiasm and said, “ine, this one looks like fun! Let’s try it out!”


    “Boring.


    ”


    ine dismissed her suggestion bluntly, pointing towards the sky, and said, “I want to go on that one.
