Chapter 178
Dante was standing just a little ahead of her. Elodie could see him in her peripheral vision, but she kept her eyes on the game, focused on keeping pace with the others.
She heard Liora’s excited voice calling out to him.
Then Dante’s calm reply. "Don’t look around. Stay in sync with your mom."
"Okay!" Liora chirped.
When Elodie had been recording earlier, she’d just stood in one spot and filmed. Nice and easy.
But Dante? He was walking backward, matching their speed, keeping the camera steady the whole time. Moving with them.
A few more steps and they crossed the finish line.
Liora immediately ran to Dante, bouncing on her toes. "Daddy, that was so fun! Can we do it again sometime?"
Dante smiled down at her. "Sure."
Elodie walked over and reached for her bag.
As soon as she picked it up, her phone buzzed inside.
She pulled it out and saw it was a video from Dante.
