Chapter 636 Permission Granted
Caroline said, “You can come with us. I’d like to spend Lundi Gras with Axel as well.”
Caroline stood up and announced, “I’m going to the restroom.”

He held her tightly, not intending to let her go.
Caroline’s eyes widened in shock, and she blushed, exclaiming “What are you doing? Let go of me. Our

Caroline was stunned, at his words. Her heart raced, and she struggled to find her words, thinking, ‘Should we? The timing

Caroline was surprised. “You’re up, Axel.”
Axel nodded. ‘Mommy, where’s Daddy?”
Caroline glanced at the empty sofa and stood up, rubbing her eyes. Is your daddy...”

Before she could finish her sentence, she felt an arm sliding around her and exclaimed, “Gah!”
Startled, she turned to see Evan lying behind her–he had slipped into bed without her notice.
Evan opened his eyes drowsily upon hearing her scream and asked, “You’re awake?”
