\u201cIf a third person truly did see it, you can curse me with infertility,\u201d Silas texted back.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Bethany fell silent at the boldness of his words. With that kind of oath, she felt somewhat better.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cMrs. Brennan, can you open the door now?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Bethany reluctantly opened the door.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Silas leaned against the doorframe with a faint smile on his face. \u201cEvan just said he misses you. He wants to invite you out to dinner.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cI didn\u2019t receive an invitation from him.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
The moment she finished speaking, Bethany\u2019s phone rang.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cAunt Betty! Grandpa gave me an allowance today. I want to treat you to dinner! But not at home. Let\u2019s go out on a date!\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Bethany looked at the lively little boy, her lips subconsciously curving. \u201cAlright, thank you.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
She couldn\u2019t bear to refuse such an adorable little munchkin.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Silas started to smile, but then his traitorous nephew added, \u201cAunt Betty, it\u2019ll just be the two of us, okay? Uncle Silas can stay\u00a0<\/p>\n
home and eat!\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Bethany glanced up at the frozen figure in front of her, suppressing her laughter. \u201cAre you sure you don\u2019t want to invite Uncle Silas?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cJust us two! Uncle Silas would only be a third wheel. We\u2019re not bringing him!\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cEvan.\u201d Silas ground his teeth and reached for the phone, but Bethany hung up quickly.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Bethany smirked triumphantly. \u201cYou\u2019re a grown man. Don\u2019t bully a little kid.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
In the end, Silas personally drove them to the mall, and Evan ruthlessly told his uncle to go home and not disturb them.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Silas clenched his jaw. He\u2019d remember what this chubby little traitor did today.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Evan grabbed Bethany\u2019s hand with his small fingers. \u201cAunt Betty, can you help me buy something?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Bethany smiled gently. \u201cWhat do you want to buy?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Evan seemed a little shy as he said, \u201cIt\u2019s Cara\u2019s birthday. I want to buy her a present.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cAunt Betty, I have 100 dollars! What do you think I should get her?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Bethany watched the little boy\u2019s cheeks turn pink, her expression peculiar. If she remembered correctly, Evan was only six. Did he already have a crush?\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cI can help you pick something out, but can you tell me who Cara is?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Evan grinned goofily. \u201cShe sits next to me in class. Her name is Cara Lambert. Aunt Betty, Cara is so pretty. Lots of\u00a0<\/p>\n
classmates like her.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cWhat about you?\u201d she teased.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cAunt Betty, don\u2019t tease me! I like her a little bit.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Bethany wasn\u2019t sure what kids gave each other for birthdays these days. Thus, she took Evan to a safe option\u2013a plushie store.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cHow about a stuffed animal?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n

Evan shook his head. \u201cNo way, Aunt Betty. Lots of people give those out.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Bethany led him around the mall. \u201cWhat about a hair clip?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
After browsing for a while, they finally bought Cara a crystal hair clip. Bethany couldn\u2019t help but marvel at how generous kids were with money these days. A single hair clip had cost almost 50 dollars.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Evan didn\u2019t even blink at the price.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Of course, Bethany wouldn\u2019t actually let the little guy pay for dinner. They chose a fusion restaurant, and Evan grabbed garlic chicken wings with his greasy little fingers, one after another, eating with relish.\u00a0<\/p>\n
About half an hour earlier, Bethany had texted Silas. He hadn\u2019t gone far and said he\u2019d come right away.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Bethany held Evan\u2019s hand as they walked toward the elevator.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Meanwhile, Noah, who was also out for dinner, frowned as he watched their retreating figures.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cNoah, the restaurant is this way. Why aren\u2019t you moving?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Noah brushed off Ella\u2019s hand. \u201cHold on. I left something in the car, so I\u2019ll grab it before joining you. Head to the room first.\u201d Ella watched him hurry after the two people.\u00a0<\/p>\n
