Mason was thrilled, his cheeks flushed with excitement.


    After Damon left, he looked up at N and cheered, “Mommy, Daddy said yes!”


    Mason was usually a reserved child, so seeing him so expressive made N smile. “Yeah, I heard that.”


    In the following days, Mason eagerly counted down to Saturday, looking forward to it more with each passing day.


    Finally, Saturday arrived, and Mason woke up early.


    N, who had light sleep, got up when he did.


    After they finished breakfast, Damon came downstairs. Seeing N and Mason waiting on the couch, particrly Mason’s eager expression, made Damon subconsciously speed up his breakfast. Exclusive ? material by N?(/v)elDrama.Org.


    When they left, it was not even 8:00 a.m. yet.


    N felt a bit worried. “Do you think the amusement park will be open this early?”


    Damon looked up from his documents, his expression nonchnt. “No worries;. I rented out the entire park.”


    N was taken aback.


    Damon noted her reaction and asked, “What’s wrong?”


    “Mr. Sumner, you know the whole point of going to an amusement park is to have a lot of people there, right? If you rented it out, what’s the point?” N asked


    Damon frowned. “What’s the fun in being packed in with a crowd?”


    “It’s fun when there are lots of people! Many attractions are meant for groups. You can’t really enjoy them alone,” N argued.


    “Are you sure?” Damon sounded doubtful. He hated crowded ces.


    “Mr. Sumner, you’ve never been to an amusement park before, have you?” N asked.


    The car fell silent after her question.


    Realizing Damon didn’t answer, N guessed that, given the Sumners‘ background, Richard and Marie likely hadn’t had time to take him <i>to </i>an amusement park when he was little.


    Suddenly, she felt a pang of pity for him, thinking he must have missed out on a normal childhood.


    Noticing that N’s gaze lingered on him strangely–almost with pity–Damon frowned and said coldly, “If the amusement park is as you say, then I’m actually d I’ve never been.”


    N pulled back her sympathy in response to his open disdain; he certainly didn’t need it.


    Even though Damon disliked crowds, he still asked Mason if he wanted to y at the park alone or with the others.


    hediately responded that he wanted to be with the other children.


    few moments of internal debate, Damon dialed Luca’s number. “Cancel the booking for the usement park.”


    N was surprised. She hadn’t expected Damon, who disliked crowds so much, topromise for their child. It seemed like he had changed a lot in the past five years.


    If it had been five years ago, he would never have done something so amodating for someone else, based on her understanding of him.


    N lowered her gaze, feeling a mix ofplicated emotions.


    By the time they arrived at the amusement park, it was nearly 9:00 a.m. A long line of parents with children had formed outside, creating a bustling scene.


    As soon as Damon stepped out of the car and saw the sea of people, his brows knitted tightly. He regretted canceling the reservation after hearing N and Mason’sments. He could already imagine how crowded it would be inside.


    Since he had given them a heads–up, the staff members greeted them immediately and led them through a side entrance meant for employees.


    Once inside the amusement park, Mason let go of N and Damon’s hands and dashed ahead.


    N quickly picked up her pace to catch up. “Buddy, slow down! Be careful not to trip!”
