Chapter 1037Chapter 1037
It was rare for the whole family to travel together, after all.
Irene tousled Tommy’s hair and said, "You're that happy, huh?"
Tommy nodded and hugged her, asking, "Where are we going?"
Irene had no idea, so she asked the man who was driving, ’ Where are we going?"
She needed to take care of Baby and Tommy, so she had to stay in the backseat, while only Isaac sat
in the front row.
"I'll decide for the day. How about that?" he said.
"Okay." Irene smiled-there were plenty of places worth visiting, but Isaac was used to most and was
therefore not interested.
Moreover, the children might not be interested as well, so he had gone out of his way to find some that
would suit the children.
They drove for a way, passing multiple neighborhoods with plenty of detached housing. It was sparsely
populated and a lot less congested than Zidonia, making for a good living environment-other factors
notwithstanding.
It was not surprising Mick Gooding would get to this place and refuse to move afterward.
The car stopped outside a spot covered under bright green foliage, and the very air was fresh.
Isaac picked Baby out of the car. The latter was quite heavy now and developed a stubborn streak,
refusing to be carried around and always wanting to walk on his own.However, he was very slow on his short little legs and was certainly being difficult.
Only Isaac was able to carry him too.
Irene took Tommy's hand and headed inside side-by-side with Isaac.
They certainly looked like a happy family, with one carrying a child and the other leading another by his
hand.
If only Baby was a daughter, it would have been more perfect.
Still, the sight alone was envious.
"What is this place..." Irene began to ask, but she was soon captivated by the scenery before her.
Past the small woods was a crystalline lake, and the ground was covered with vibrant green grass-it
was a place for picnics and other outdoor activities.
A gentle breeze brushed against them just then, filling the air with invigorating freshness.
Tommy quickly let go of Irene's hand and ran happily toward the lake-it seems that he liked being
outdoors.
Irene smiled. "I should have brought food if I knew."
Isaac gave her a look. "It feels like you're saying that I’m not well-prepared."
Irene giggled. "I was the one who did not prepare."
However, she soon saw that Zachary and Mrs. Watson had arrived as well, leaving her surprised.
"How?"Isaac had come here for the first time, but he was scouting the route and the woods before calling
Zachary over since this was definitely a good place.
Zachary and Mrs. Watson in turn brought everything from food to toys for a picnic and basically
everything they needed.
Tommy was naturally the most pleased about that, since he was the eldest and could eat and run
around without anyone minding him, while Baby did the same.
The greenery and the crystalline lake was just right for relaxing and unwinding.
Zachary sighed emotionally just then. "It would be perfect if we brought a grill set."
Irene turned toward him. "Quite the glutton, aren't we?'
"It's just the right place for it," Zachary said. "And it's not that many of us... If only James and his bride
were here too."
Irene frowned. "You're unmarried, but you're an adult. Would he have time to spend with you?"
Zachary was speechless-lrene's words were certainly unsettling.
Even so...
"What do you mean, I'm unmarried? Heck, I was a divorcee, or did you forget?"
Irene was speechless-she really did!
