Kapitel 283: Colours of love

After Scarlet's gift, Lara was ready for anything. Still, she was curious to see what Jaden had prepared.

It was the first time her cubs had the chance to think about presents, and she was glad they had fun while doing so. Nate had assisted them, obviously, and he was the first person she needed to thank for the birthday party.

«Mommy is happy enough with the song,» she said. «You didn't need to go out of your way to buy me presents. Now I'll have to think hard for your birthday...»

«No, mommy, it's fine,» Scarlet said, surprising her mother with a mature and solemn tone. «We don't need you to buy us presents.»

«Oh,» Lara chuckled, reaching out to her. She hugged her tightly and kissed her head. «Mommy's selfless girl...»

«You don't need to because Nate will,» Scarlet whispered. «You can just relax and cook roast for us!»

«I see,» Lara sighed. Not that selfless, after all. «And Jaden?»

She turned to the boy, patiently waiting.
