Before long, Howard arrived, dressed to impress, carrying generous gifts.
Sheena noticed he was alone and asked, “Why did you calone today? Didn’t you wait for Phoebe?”

Howard’s face showed a hint of embarrassment. “She’s been quite busy with her shoots lately, and I don’t know who’s been talking to her, but I feel like she’s been distancing herself fromlately.”
“Did you upset her?”
“No!” Howard pondered for a moment. “A couple’s occasional argument is normal, right? She wasn’t like this before, but she’s been particularly cold towardlately.”
“Well, if I have time, I’ll ask her for you.”
“Don’t worry. I’ll handle my own affairs.”
Sheena patted his shoulder and earnestly advised, “Howard, you’re a man. How can you argue with a girl? In the future, try to avoid quarrels and be more accommodating. Too many arguments can hurt her feelings.”
“I understand.” Howard nodded, obediently heeding her advice.
Remembering someone’s instructions, he continued earnestly, “Oh, by the way, Noah happened to fly to Farlem last night, so he probably won’t make it back. He wrote a check and said he’ll bring small

gifts for Asher and Adora when he returns to Svelton next time.”
Noah flew to Farlem?

Sheena could not resist a teasing grin. “He has no significant business in Farlem, so what is he doing
there?”
Howard beamed proudly at her. “He’s obviously there to pursue Hannah! But it might not be easy this time. He’s been putting on airs for the past half year, and now that she’s engaged, he finally cto his senses. He’s probably in for a rough ride.”
Sheena chuckled mischievously, wasting no opportunity to jest. “Well, serves him right! Who asked him to act so aloof, always sporting that poker face? He needs a girl who can thim.”
Howard agreed wholeheartedly, nodding along.
As they chatted, Barbara arrived soon after, alone.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmHoward noticed and casually inquired, “Barbara, why are you here alone?”
Barbara smiled, but there was a hint of sadness in her expression. “Corey fell ill with a high fever a few days ago after the heavy rain. Moreover, he has knee pain from kneeling all night during that period. Whenever it rains or the seasons change, his knees hurt. Also, he knows his appearance will ruin Sheena’s mood, so he’s avoiding disturbing her.”
The smile on Sheena’s face faded considerably as she lowered her gaze, saying nothing.
Howard observed her carefully and, seeing no sign of resentment, ventured another question.
“Barbara, is he still reading those scriptures?”
Barbara nodded. “He’s like a fanatic, punishing himself like crazy. Rain or shine, freezing cold or even with a fever, he insists on reciting those scriptures.”
She sighed silently, her eyes reddening unintentionally. However, remembering that today was her children’s baby shower, she forced a smile.
Sheena felt a strange tug at her heart but simply said, “I’ve reminded him more than once to stop, but he’s too stubborn. Unless he has a change of heart, no one can convince him.”
The atmosphere among the three suddenly grew heavy.
After a few moments of silence, Sheena was the first to smile and steer the conversation back.
“Howard, Barbara, why don’t you two go inside? Asher and Adora are with Elliot. Go and play with the little ones.”
They nodded, quickly regaining their harmony, and entered the house with laughter and
conversation.
