Chapter 1055:
Both Marissa and Connor heard the murmurs around them.
Connor, however, paid no mind to the idle talk, holding the candy bar with a serene smile, offering it with the
utmost delicacy.
Marissa, though indifferent to the murmurs, was visibly uneasy with Connor's overt affection.
Even though she had been privy to his more shameless side in private quarters—even to the extent of his
undress—they were now divorced and ought to maintain a decorous distance.
Moreover, she was now betrothed to Everett, caught in a muddle over how to navigate this delicate juncture. As
she pondered whether to accept the candy, Lawrence and Lindsay, each clutching one of her legs, looked up at
her with guileless eyes and pleaded in their melodious tones, “Try the candy, Mommy.”
With a candy bar already in his mouth, Lawrence said,
“Mommy, I've already sampled it for you. It’s delicious. Even a tough cookie likefinds it sweet and soothing.”
Lindsay, also with a candy bar between her lips, grinned broadly and exclaimed, “Exactly! Mommy, the candy
tastes and smells so wonderful, and since Daddy has unwrapped it himself, it's becthe best candy in the
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtworld. Con, Mommy. Try it!”
Marissa felt a flush of embarrassment at the thought of accepting the candy from Connor’s hand with everyone
watching, but she couldn't bear to disappoint the children. Their eager faces, so full of hope for the unity of their

Earlier, when she had watched Connor tenderly unwrapping candy for the children, she had been deeply
touched. Ever since discovering they were his biological children, he had transformed into a doting father,
overflowing with affection.
The children munched on their candy bars with sheer delight, their satisfaction evident. Then they turned their
sweet smiles to Marissa, urging their father to unwrap one for her too, so the entire family could indulge
together.
Refusing Connor's candy now would surely dampen their spirits.
As Marissa hesitated, Connor already had the candy poised at her lips, his smile encouraging. He softly
prompted, “Open up.”
Caught off guard, Marissa instinctively opened her mouth, and in the next instant, the candy nestled inside, its
creamy sweetness enveloping her senses.
“Mommy, isn't it really sweet and fragrant?” Lindsay asked, her eyes wide with hope.
