The children’s clothing section brimmed with attention–grabbing attire. It was not just the exquisite
princess dresses that caught the eye, even the combination of denim pants and a white short–sleeved
shirt worn by the mannequin at the entrance exuded a remarkable appeal, The mannequin also donned
a sleek milky white baseball cap atop its head, radiating a distinct sense of style.
Adjacent to that mannequin stood another one featuring a young girl. She was dressed in a pink ball
gown with a voluminous skirt. The skirt sparkled with dazzling sequins, and there was a delicate floral
ruffle adorning the shoulder.
It was full of fairy–like charm. However, since Rose did not know Ruby’s preferences, she asked the
little one for her opinion. “Ruby, do you like the clothes at the entrance?”
Ruby glanced upward for a brief moment and became instantly enchanted. Her tiny eyes remained
fixated and she found herself unable to turn away. It appeared that the allure of beautiful things was not
limited to adults; even children possessed a sense of aesthetics/Edward, who was holding his niece’s
hand, remarked, “I think she likes it. Ruby has always adored dresses, unlike Sherri
Ruby had a gentle and sweet personality, and she loved dresses and the color pink.
Hearing Edward’s words, Rose said to the salesperson, “I would like the two pieces at the entrance.
Are there any available in your stockroom?
The salesperson replied, “Yes, I’ll go get them for you.”
Edward promptly shared Ruby’s height, while Rose indicated Jasper’s, which proved to be one size
larger than Ruby’s.
Jasper stood just half a head taller than Ruby; thus, a size larger would be the ideal fit.
After that, Rose allowed Ruby to pick several other styles of clothes in the store, a total of eight sets,
and the same for Jasper.
Downstairs at the jewelry store.
Rose was not very knowledgeable about buying jewelry, but in the morning, she saw the joy on Sherri’s
face when she received the gold chain necklace from her brother. Besides, Natalie had mentioned that
Sherri had a preference for Juxurious, materialistic items. While standing near the display counter,
Rose inquired, “Could you make some recommendations?”
The salesperson said, “Hello, is it going to be a gift?”
Rose replied, “Yes. Well, I want to give a newborn baby a gift. Is there anything suitable for a baby?”
Edward positioned the child on a chair, and then gently placed his arm around Rose’s shoulder. The
duo delved into the intricacies of the jewelry designs, and their attention was completely ensnared by
the radiant exhibition beneath the see–through glass counter.
The salesperson carefully picked out a few styles suitable for gifts and arranged them in the display
tray. Have a look at these options. A gold lock symbolizes auspiciousness, and this bracelet is quite
popular with customers as it represents a sense of generosity.”
The gold lock was hollow, while the bracelet was solid.
Rose glanced up at Edward, seeking his opinion. “Which one do you think is better?”
He prioritized her preferences, gently squeezing her shoulder and tidying the strands of hair around her
collarbone as he said, “Choose the one you like the most; that’s the one you should go for.”
The young girl on the chair played with a small cat toy. The man was striking, and the woman was quite
attractive. Therefore, the salesperson assumed they were a family of three, expressing his admiration
for the family by saying, “All three of you are exceptionally good–looking.”
Rose did not find it inappropriate and explained with a smile, “This is my niece. We don’t have children
yet.”
She smiled warmly after saying that.
I’m sorry. But, really, the three of you are so good–looking. I’ve been in sales for many years, and this
is the first time I’ve seen such a good–looking combination like yours. Your future children will definitely
be very handsome or beautiful. After all, both of your genes are top–notch.” The salesperson showered
them with enthusiastic compliments, and in response, Edward and Rose maintained polite smiles…
Gazing at the gold on the tray for a while, Rose finally made up her mind. Edward, who was patiently
waiting by her side, asked, “Have you made up your mind?”
“I have. I’ll go with the bracelet. Give me a pair of this, please.”
Then she pointed to a pair of beautiful and delicate knot bracelets on the display counter. “Please fetch

She quickly wrapped her arms around his neck, stood on her tiptoes, and planted three kisses on his

As Trevon watched his son respond with single syllables, he was at a loss for words.

watch is for Jasper, and these are locks from Edward”
Natalie’s gaze shifted to the pile of gifts on the bed, and she was deeply touched by their thoughtful
gesture. She did not know what exactly to say except, “Thank you so much
She had not expected Rose and Edward to go shopping for gifts in the afternoon. After all, they were
not the type to fuss over such formalities
She had not anticipated Rose to be so meticulous, tending to each child without favoritism, and
ensuring that both the younger and elder ones received gifts.
Buying all these items would have taken several hours. In other words, Edward had been
accompanying Rose on this shopping trip the whole time.
Natalie was genuinely happy for them and hoped that they would have a bright future together.
After finishing with the gift–giving. Rose prepared to go to the neighboring ward to deliver the presents.
However, Ruby was unwilling to leave. With a playmate around and considering they had not seen
each other for a long time, Edward’s attempt to hold Ruby’s hand was swatted away. Meanwhile, the
little girl’s expectant eyes clearly conveyed her desire to stay.
In the end. Trevon spoke up. “Don’t worry, my son is very well–behaved.”
Natalie remarked, Tm afraid that you have some misunderstanding about what ‘well–behaved‘ means.”
She gave Trevon a stern look and then said, “Edward, it’s fine. Let them play together. After all, the two
little ones haven’t seen each other in a long time.”
Besides, Hackett, who was in the neighboring ward, could come over anytime.
Edward said, “Alright, if she misbehaves, please bring her to me: His implication was that Trevon
should bring the child to him if necessary.
With that settled, Edward left with the gift boxes in one hand and Rose’s hand in his other. They
pushed open the door and entered Sherri’s ward, where a lively conversation was ongoing. However,
as Juana and Joy chatted and snacked on peanuts, they did not appear particularly noisy.
Sherri was in high spirits as she listened to the two mothers chatting. “You’re back. Where’s Ruby?”
Hackett glanced at Edward and, seeing that his daughter was not around, asked, “Where’s my precious
girl?”
Edward rolled his eyes at him. “I can’t possibly lose her, can I? She’s in Natalie’s ward, playing with her
son.”
Just as Hackett was about to go and bring his daughter back, Sherri stopped him. “Hackett, stay.”
It was not easy for the two little ones to finally bond and get close to one another, so there was no point
in disturbing them. Even if they could not be a couple in the future, they could at least be good friends.
Hackett was eager to bring his daughter back, but Sherri disagreed. Sitting discontentedly on the
couch, he glared at Edward and said, “You know to take her away, but you have no idea that you
should bring her back.”
Edward replied, “Can you think normally for once, huh? Ruby has the right to socialize.”
Rose took out the gifts for Sherri, saying. “One from your brother, and one from me.”
Sherri opened the boxes and exclaimed. “Good lord, you guys are so sweet. This is so beautiful! Wow!”
She then showered Rose’s face with kisses.
Edward frowned in disgust, walking over with a tissue to wipe Rose’s cheeks.
Sherri was speechless as she had already brushed her teeth.
Juana said. “If you think it’s beautiful, just express it properly. What’s all this good lord‘ stuff?”
