Carlotta and a wealthy companion enjoy a day at Elysium Hot Springs. They encounter a beautiful little girl named Danielle, whom Carlotta immediately takes a liking to. Meanwhile, Willow chooses a revealing swimsuit, much to President Ashworth's displeasure, as she playfully asserts her desire for his attention.

Morgan Ashworth had no idea about the little thoughts going through women’s minds. Right now, he just found Willow Crawford irresistibly adorable, and he loved how she always kept him in her heart like this.

With a spin of his palm, her slender body twirled around, facing him. Morgan leaned in and kissed her ruby lips, "I’m handing over all my energy to you now, so later, I’ll be too exhausted to notice any pretty girls."

Willow felt a sweet sensation in her heart and playfully shoved him, "No, you can’t. My sister is still waiting for me."

"It’s okay, she knows we’re working hard on baby number two lately."

"..." It seemed the president’s skin had gotten thicker, hadn’t it?

...

Celeste Linden had changed into her swimsuit and came out, realizing that Willow Crawford hadn’t come out yet.

Huh, why is Willow taking so long?

Celeste walked up to the door and knocked, but then Willow’s sweet and charming voice drifted from inside, "Honey, you’re so naughty..."

As someone with experience, Celeste quickly understood what was going on—her brother had gone in.

Her cheeks flushed red, and she left swiftly.

Just then, Joy and Danielle came running over, with Joy shouting, "Daddy... Daddy, have you changed yet, Daddy..."

Turns out, Morgan was supposed to take Joy to change into swimwear, but once Dad went into Mom’s room, he couldn’t come out, even forgetting about his son.

Celeste quickly covered Joy’s mouth, "Shh, Joy, don’t make noise. Your dad and mom are in the room, discussing something very important, so let’s not disturb them, okay?"

Danielle asked curiously, "Brother Joy, what important thing are uncle and aunt discussing?"

Joy said, "Daddy and Mommy must be discussing about giving me a little sister."

"How are you so sure?"

"Because every day they discuss this, and at those times, Daddy tells me to go play by myself."

Danielle said, "Brother Joy, you’re so pitiful."

"It’s okay, I’m used to it. Sometimes I even suspect I was picked up and brought here."

Listening to the two little ones talk, Celeste’s face turned even redder. These were matters between her brother and sister-in-law, and it wasn’t her place to get involved. The more loving they were, the happier she was, so she immediately said, "Joy, come on, I’ll help you change into your swimwear. I’ll take you to play first. Your dad and mom will be out soon."

"Okay."

...

Meanwhile, on the other side, Carlotta and that noblewoman came out of their room after getting changed into their swimsuits.

Carlotta was wearing a cool floral swimsuit. In the past three years, she hadn’t had children and invested a lot of money in her face and body, so she was in great shape.

The noblewoman exclaimed, "Wow, Madam Lieutenant, your figure is amazing. Hurry up and video call the Lieutenant Lord to let him have a good look. It’ll definitely bring you two closer together."

Carlotta was quite pleased with her own appearance, so she immediately took out her phone and started a video call with Ethan Barnes.

It was a long time before the video call was connected. Ethan appeared on the other end, leading a few trusted subordinates, busy with work outside, wearing a black tactical jacket zipped all the way up. He looked handsome yet stern.

"Honey, look where I am right now?"

Ethan glanced at her, and Carlotta immediately straightened up, showing off her swimsuit-clad body fully in the frame, boldly and openly flaunting herself in front of him.
