Billionaire Ex-wife: I Can't Live Without You

After their greetings, their eyes drifted to the snowman that Kyson had crafted.

It stood tall, almost as high as Colby, but it still lacked eyes and a nose.

Colby, Destinee, do you want to help give our snowman some personality? Kyson asked.

A real snowman needs eyes, after all.

Destinees eyes lit up with excitement as she turned to Colby, waiting eagerly for his decision.

Without a word, Colby strode up to the snowman, picking up the prepared black beans and carrots.

With careful precision, he affixed them to the snowmans face.

Yes! Mr. Snowman is our new friend.

You have to be good and stay right here! Destinee declared, giving the snowman an enthusiastic pat on the head.

But her affection was a little too strong-her slap sent snow flying, flattening the snowmans head in an instant.noveldrama

Destinees face crumpled, a pout forming as she looked as if she might cry.

The adults burst into laughter, the sound echoing warmly against the cold air.

As twilight settled, they all made their way into the lab.

Nathan wasted no time after entering, immediately asking Aldric to check on Colby.

His worry for the boys health nagged at him-could Colby handle all that intense play? Aldric nodded and took Colby into the examination room, leaving everyone else anxiously awaiting news, hearts heavy with concern.

An hour passed before Aldric emerged, carrying Colby in his arms, a broad smile illuminating his face.

As long as he avoids strenuous exercise too often, hell be okay.

However, he will need weekly infusions to keep the virus at bay and prevent it from spreading.

Destinee clapped her hands in delight, her eyes sparkling with joy.

Thats great! Colby can go to school with me! Well be together! Kyson, who had been tense throughout the waiting, finally relaxed, feeling a wave of relief wash over him.

Halfway back to the Shaw familys house, Sally glanced at her phone, pretending to answer a call.

Her voice slipped into a tone of feigned urgency.

Kyson, can you pull over for a minute? My friends picking me up. Were going out for dinner.

You and Dulcie can head back without me.

Alright, he said.

As soon as Sally stepped out, the door clicked shut behind her, leaving just Kyson and Dulcie in the car.

The silence that followed was thick with unspoken words and lingering awkwardness.

Dulcie stared out the window, her mind still replaying fragments of their earlier snowball fight.

Kyson had stepped in front of her more than once, shielding her with a quiet protectiveness.

It unsettled her.
