"Of course, he would," William nodded without hesitation, his eyes as earnest as a scout's honor. "Geppetto was always Pinocchio's real dad, just like you will always be my real daddy." He scrambled up and threw his arms around Arnold's neck. "A daddy loving his child is the real daddy. William will love Daddy forever. I'd never turn my back on you!" Arnold hugged him tightly, planting a loving kiss on his chubby cheek. He knew all the time and affection he'd poured into raising William wasn't in vain. No one could take William away from him, even if the truth came out one day.
"Daddy's gonna love William forever, too." William blinked. "Even when the new baby sister comes, you won't stop loving me, right?" The worry gnawed at him that Daddy would cast him aside once the baby sister, his biological child, came to them.
Arnold stroked his cheek gently. "How could Daddy ever stop loving you, William? You'll always be my boy." "Pinky promise!" William extended his little finger.
Arnold chuckled and linked his pinky with William's.

Aurelia had stayed with Kane at Stirling Mansion in the past few days.
Kane missed his dad terribly, his worry eating away at him.
"Mom, Dad's okay, isn't he?" Aurelia stroked Kane's hair, whispering so softly it was almost a breeze. "Dad's working on an important project.
While he's away, Mom will be here with you every day. Don't be scared." "I'm not scared. Mom and Dad don't need to worry about me." Kane shook his head, showing a resilience far beyond his years.
Aurelia kissed his cheek, her heart aching with pride and sorrow.
"My Kane is the bravest and the best." Kane smiled. "Mom, I'm working on inventing a portable poison detector. Once I finish it, you'll never have to worry about poison again." Aurelia gave him a thumbs-up. "That's my boy! | can't wait for you to finish it." She got him a glass of milk, and Kane took a sip before sharing, "Tanya visited yesterday, asking Grandma about Dad's illness." "And what did your grandma say?" "She said Dad's fine and just needs some rest before he can leave the hospital." Aurelia's eyes darkened slightly. Tanya was snooping for information. With Leopold mysteriously absent, the Stirling family had to rely on Jessica to hold the fort.
"Grandma is the backbone of our family. She'll handle everything. Now, finish your milk and lie down. Mommy will tell you a bedtime story." "Okay." Kane nodded and gulped down his milk until the glass was empty.
Lisa had arrived at Elysium ahead of schedule with her daughter. Arnold had settled them in Swan Lake Villa.

Aurelia took William to visit Lisa at Swan Lake Villa that weekend.
Nova had just finished her bottle and wasn't asleep yet. She lay in her crib, her beautiful eyes wide with curiosity, seemingly aware of the visitors expected that day.
Aurelia brought a gift for the child, a soft doll to keep Nova company, which she had designed by herself.
"Lisa, you're looking well." Seeing Aurelia again, a tumult of emotions surged within Lisa.
Arnold had been pressuring her for a divorce, and she had fled home in shame.
"Aurelia, you must hate me," Lisa whispered, her gaze dropping. "If | hadn't come between you and Arnold, you two would have been married by now." "I've figured it out these days," she continued, her voice laced with resignation. "There's an old saying in Veritalia, “Forced love is never happy.” | should give Arnold his freedom and let him chase his happiness. Don't worry. I'm going to finalize the divorce with Arnold next week."
