Chapter 42 After lunch , Paisley was about to take Serena to the park .
She walked over to the guest room and knocked on the door .
Kena and 1 are heading to the park .
Are you coming with us ? Grayson had locked himself in his room the whole morning .
He gone otit only once to use the bathroom but had otherwise stayed shut up inside .
Serena even sneaked him some water earlier , thinking Paisley didnt see , but she did .
Paisley had assumed Grayson would still be sulking and wouldnt want to go .
If he didnt , she figured Serena would have to skip the outing too .
After all , Paisley couldnt leave a seven year old home alone .
Just as she was about to tell Serena theyd go later , the door to the guest room opened .
Grayson stepped out , fully dressed.
and standing in the doorway .
Okay , lets go .
Paisley answered .
Alright , lets go .
Put on your shoes .
Seeing that Paisley didnt say anything more , Grayson let out a quiet sigh of relief , but then his expression grew dim .
He couldnt help thinking to himself , Why isnt she scolding me ? I didnt eat breakfast , wasted food , threw a tantrum , and slammed the door … But shes not even saying anything ? She used to always say something when I acted like this ….
As Paisley focused on gently helping Serena sort her shoes , Grayson hung his head , quietly putting on his own shoes However , he felt off in his heart like something was wrong , but he couldnt quite figure out what .
The park they were going to wasnt far it was a community park in the area .
It had a man made lake surrounded by lush greenery , rocks , and trees , where people could row boats .
There were also fitness areas and a childrens play zone .
After playing for a while , Paisley found a spot near some fake rocks to sit down and rest .
The two kids ran around and played freely within her sight .
Hidden in the background , two bodyguards kept an eye on them .
On the other end of their radio , Dominick was on the line .
Mr.
Vanderbilt , Ms.
Sutton is at the park with Grayson and her daughter .
Even though Dominick wasnt around the past two days , hed made sure to keep a couple of guys watching over Paisley .
The reason for the bodyguards wasnt to spy on Paisley ; it was to keep Grayson safe .
After that kidnapping incident at his kindergarten , Dominick had taken extra precautions , ensuring someone was always in the background to watch over Grayson .
Got it , Dominick replied .
He had just returned to Harrowfell and was on his way to Paisleys house .
Has anyone else been to her place ? No , the bodyguard replied .
Dominicks brows smoothed out after he got the answer he wanted .
When he glanced out the window , a flower shop caught his eye .
He remembered a bouquet of fresh flowers on the coffee table at Paisleys place .
Pull over , Dominick told his driver .
Julian asked in a confused tone , Whats going on , sir ? Im getting something at the store .
Dominick opened the door and got out , heading straight for the flower shop .
21:58 Mon , Jan 27 Chapter 12 Inside the store , the clerk was trimming Howers when suddenly all shadow loomed over herred she was startled .
She quickly looked up to see a tall , handsome man by the counter .
He was easily 62 with broad shoulders and long legs .
Just standing there without saying anything , he was magnetic , not to mention his attractive face Sir , can I help your the clerk asked , setting down the branch she was working on and walking over to him .
What kind of flowers are you looking for ? Is it for someone ? Dominick looked around the shop for a moment before answering .
I want pink flowers He remembered the flowers on Paisleys coffee table were pink .
And that pink loungewear she wore looked so good on her .
Sure , we have plenty of pink flowers , the clerk said , pointing to nearby display .
These are all pink .
Dominicks eyes landed on a bunch of pink roses beside him .
They were different from the ones on Paisleys coffee table .
but they looked even better .
Ill take them .
Please wrap them up for me .
The clerk confirmed the number of flowers and then started suggesting some complementary blooms before getting to work on the arrangement .
As she wrapped the flowers , she asked casually , Sir , is this bouquet for your lover ? The clerk thought , A handsome guy like him definitely has a girlfriend .
How lucky the girl is to have a guy with perfect looks and body Dominick raised his eyebrows and asked , Why do you ask ? The clerk explained , Well , you see , pink roses symbolize unforgettable first love , special care , and a love for someones radiant smile .
They represent passionate love , a declaration of love .
With every word she said , Dominicks mind kept drifting back to Paisley .
Her image and smile were all there vividly .
A small smile tugged on Dominicks lips , and he nodded .
Yeah , shes my first love .
The clerk flashed a look that said she got it right , and with even more enthusiasm , she finished wrapping up the bouquet .
Meanwhile , in the park , the two kids , who almost ignored each other earlier , were now fighting over a blade of grass .
Paisley saw that their squabble was just harmless bickering , and their voices were at a level that wasnt disruptive , so she didnt bother stopping them .
She figured theyd sort it out themselves .
Just then , her phone buzzed .
Emerys voice called out , Paisy , you at home ? Tm at the park near home .
Why ? replied Paisley .
Oh , Ive got a client who sent me a ton of fruit and supplements and you know me Im all about the wine , not about fruit and supplements .
So I asked Teddy to deliver them to you .
Hes on his way and should be there soon .
Wait for him downstairs .
Paisley said with a teasing smile , Come on , girl .
Teddys your boyfriend , not your personal delivery guy .
You couldve just called a courier .
Im drowning in work .
I need to give him something to do .
I hate himeo pester me and delay my job .
Honestly , besides the fun on the bed , the only thing hes good for is running errands .
What else does he do ? Emery replied with an annoyed look .
୦ 21:58 Mon , Jan 27 Chapter 42 Alright , babe , I gotta go .
Someones looking for me .
She hung up the phone , clearly distracted Who was that , Mom ? Serena came running over and asked .
Paisley replied .
That was Emery .
