Desmond Fairchild wholeheartedly agreed with this remark, and the father and son teamed up, leaving Seraphina Sinclair speechless.
Indeed, when faced with a genius son and someone as icy and aloof as Desmond Fairchild, she was the one who warranted more concern.
Once they entered Happy Valley, Seraphina Sinclair shed her public persona and played even more wildly than Jude Sinclair.
She tightly held Desmond Fairchild’s hand, pointing at the pirate ship, and said to him, "Desmond, how about we try that one out?"
The sound of screams from the pirate ship echoed in her ears, and Desmond Fairchild slightly furrowed his brows, "I..." Tʜe source of this ᴄontent ɪs novel✦fire.net
He was about to refuse, but Seraphina Sinclair was already dragging him forward, cheerfully saying, "You have no idea how much I’ve wanted to try this before. Sadly, there was never anyone to accompany me. Today I’m giving you the special chance to join me."
Jude Sinclair stood behind the two with his big eyes blinking, his lips curved into an awkward yet polite smile, "Mom and Dad, did you forget something?"
They had just said they would hold onto her hand tightly, yet now they had tossed everything aside at the sight of something they wanted to play.
Hearing Jude’s slightly annoyed voice, Seraphina Sinclair’s expression froze and she forced a smile, "How could I forget my darling son? But this pirate ship isn’t suitable for you; you just wait for us down here."
"Am I your real son?" Jude Sinclair questioned.
Is this the legendary tale of how parents are truly in love, and he’s just a happy accident?
"Hey, go buy yourself an ice cream from that refreshment stand over there." Desmond Fairchild pulled out a hundred yuan from his bag and handed it to Jude.
"Your dad is rarely generous , so hurry up." Seraphina Sinclair said gleefully, and Jude shrugged like a little adult and walked away, too lazy to respond to them.
Meanwhile, Desmond Fairchild nodded toward the person secretly arranged to protect Jude, signaling them to follow.
At the moment they boarded the pirate ship, Seraphina Sinclair’s heart started pounding, not out of fear, but due to the indescribable feeling of finally experiencing something at her age.
Desmond Fairchild sat beside her expressionlessly, calmly holding the handle, his gaze steadily fixed ahead while keeping Seraphina Sinclair in his peripheral vision.
"Are you scared?" Seraphina Sinclair asked with curiosity, having spent considerable time with Desmond Fairchild, she never seemed to discover any of his weaknesses.
"If you’re scared, just hold onto me; I won’t let go." Desmond Fairchild gazed deeply at Seraphina Sinclair, and before she could respond, he proactively gripped her delicate hand.
"I’ll never let go." Five simple words, yet they struck straight into Seraphina Sinclair’s heart.
For that instant, a little woman’s heartbeat quickened further; despite the noisy atmosphere on the pirate ship, she still clearly heard the sound of her heart beating in her chest.
Thump thump thump, each beat more rapid than the last.
She couldn’t comprehend what was happening; she had already given birth yet still felt shy, truly becoming more juvenile instead of mature.
Throughout the ride, Seraphina Sinclair was too preoccupied with her embarrassment to properly experience the thrill of the pirate ship.
All sorts of screaming filled her ears as she and Desmond Fairchild remained the calmest pair among everyone.
Nevertheless, from start to finish, the two maintained a steadfast grip on each other’s hand, without either voluntarily letting go.
Jude Sinclair was already holding an ice cream, waiting at the ticket booth for them. Observing them emerging hand in hand, he couldn’t help but tease, "When did Mom and Dad’s relationship become so good? Wherever they go, they have to hold hands."
This wasn’t the first time she was teased by her son, and Seraphina Sinclair instantly snapped out of her trance, quickly releasing Desmond Fairchild’s hand, stomping her feet playfully, "You cheeky boy, are you asking for it? You’re getting more and more audacious, even daring to joke with your mom now?"
