Skyler unwrapped a lollipop and popped it into his mouth, "Angel's hanging out with Leopold, and
Arnold’s all by himself in the room. Arnold must be bored out of his mind. You should go keep him
company."
Lisa offered a wry smile, "Arnold doesn't like staying with me."
Skyler arched an eyebrow, a playful spark in his eyes, "I'll teach you a trick to win him over."
"What kind of trick?" Lisa asked, her curiosity piqued.
"Just do this..." Skyler said with a mysterious grin, a fleeting shadow of mischief dancing in his gaze.
That evening, Leopold and Arnold took the kids out to catch the fireworks and light show.
Aurelia chose to rest up in her room instead.
The viewing area was packed, but they had snagged seats in the SVIP section.
Lisa hadn't shown up. After dinner, she had retreated to her room to sleep, seeming incredibly tired.
Arnold decided not to wake her, opting to bring Nova along solo.
For Nova, spending one-on-one time with her dad was a new experience. She felt a tad awkward at NôvelDrama.Org exclusive content.

Beverley sipped her iced tea and pouted, "The fireworks are so awesome. I can't believe Aurelia and
Lisa aren't here."
Leopold explained, "Aurelia is tuckered out. She wanted some rest."
The little baby had been tricky and already caused a stir only for two months. Kane was the easy one,

"Oh." Beverley glanced at Arnold, "Is Lisa tired too?"
Arnold replied, "She's been sleeping. I even had the nanny try to wake her, but no dice. She'll probably
come over once she's up."
"Alright then." Beverley stuck out her tongue, feeling a bit bored without her gossip buddy.
One of her favorite pastimes was dishing dirt with Aurelia. They just clicked, always instantly on the

Before the show kicked off, Nova climbed onto her dad's lap, gnawing on a teether. She had
occasionally grabbed William's hair with her chubby little hands, coaxing him to play.
William stood up and planted a couple of kisses on her cheek, sending her into fits of giggles.
Just then, her eyes cut through the crowd and she seemed to have seen a ghost, her eyes wide open.
"Goo-goo gah-gah..." She pointed into the crowd, trying to tell William something.
William quickly looked back, seeing nothing but a sea of faces.
"What have you spotted now, Nova?"
Nova turned to Skyler beside her, pointing her fingers at him, "Goo-goo gah-gah..."
Skyler facepalmed, "She hasn't spotted another ghost connected to me, has she?"
Leopold and Arnold both directed their gaze into the crowd.
It was the third time Nova had done this, looking utterly astonished. What on earth had she seen?
Mira shivered, "Shoot, is that ghost still following us? Without the sun, they can roam freely at night."
Nina stomped her foot in annoyance, "Ugh, so annoying. Why is it following us? It's not some vengeful
spirit coming for us, is it?" coոtent f Drąmąn vеls.cом
William quickly stood up, scooping Nova into his arms. What an overprotective big brother!
