Chapter 196: A Date On The Cliff -1
The next day, Evelyn walked downstairs towards the dining hall to find Kiana already up and enjoying her cake with her Daddy. The morning sun filtered through the curtains of floor-to-ceiling windows in the corridor, casting a warm, golden glow over the room, making the scene even more picturesque.
"Mommy!!" Kiana beamed at the sight of Evelyn, her little face lighting up with joy. She happily took another bite of her cake, chocolate smudged around her mouth, and talked in between bites, "Look! Daddy made me a cake!"
"Oh, that’s great!" Evelyn replied, settling beside her husband. She poured herself a cup of steaming coffee, the rich aroma mingling with the scent of freshly baked cake. "Do you like it?"
"Yes!" Kiana gingerly nodded. Licking the crumbs off her lips, she added, "This is the best chocolate cake ever!" Turning to her parents, she giggled, "And he’s the best Daddy in the world!"
"He indeed is," Evelyn replied, smiling at her husband. Her heart swelled with love and contentment. She couldn’t stop herself from leaning closer and stealing a small good morning kiss, catching Zevian off guard again.
Holding back her chuckle as he stared at her in surprise, Evelyn picked up a glass and poured the fresh orange juice, its vibrant color a perfect contrast to the morning’s serenity. Zevian shook his head and focused back on Kiana, helping the little girl finish her breakfast.
It was one of the best mornings for Evelyn, filled with warmth and happiness. The sight of her daughter enjoying the cake and the loving interaction between father and daughter made her heart swell with joy. The sun’s gentle rays streamed through the window, casting a golden glow on the scene, making it picture-perfect that she decided to click a few pictures.
Everyone else soon joined them one by one, with Avery being the last, still in her pajamas, her hair tousled from sleep. They all enjoyed breakfast together, laughter and cheerful conversation filling the air. The table was laden with a variety of breakfast foods—fluffy pancakes, crispy bacon, fresh fruit, and more. After breakfast, Evelyn walked Zevian and Kiana out.
"Be good and finish your lunch," she nuzzled the little girl’s nose before kissing her cheek.
