Chapter 461: Helping dad choose

Since Lara had to study for the entry exams, Nate took the pups with him and left her alone. She told him she didn't need complete silence, so it was fine if they stayed at home.

But he had plans.

Using her studies as an excuse to leave, he drove to the centre and reached the mall.

«We're going to select a ring for your mommy,» he said to the children.

He had Scarlet's eyes for pretty things and Jaden's memory. He could find the perfect ring easily.

«A ring?» Jaden said, tilting his head. «Why?»

And, there it was: the worst question. He couldn't tell the pups before telling Lara, since they could inform her about his intentions and ruin the surprise!

«Just because,» he said. If they didn't know it was special, they might not talk about it with Lara.

And the surprise was going to be the official proposal, not just the ring. He had bought a diamond for Lara, already. She wouldn't suspect... Maybe.
