Thomas’s full name is Thomas Chad, and he’s been a rising star in the skating circle these past two years.
When Eva and I arrived, he was leaning against the railing with his skating shoes on. His training uniform was still unchanged. He was thin, with long legs, and the sleeves of his shirt fluttered like a fairy
in exile.
His face, especially, was like a crown made of jade, with a few strands of bangs falling down, revealing a handsome man. I couldn’t help but exclaim.
Seeing me, a shy smile appeared on Thomas’s face. “Miss Evelyn.”
I pulled Eva back. “Say hello to uncle.”
“Uncle, you’re so handsome, like a fairy.” After leaving the Reed’s house, Eva was completely relaxed and spoke without any restraint.
Thomas blushed and laughed, presenting Eva with a small white bracelet as a gift.
Eva liked it so much that she immediately put it on her wrist and started examining it on her own.
“Miss Evelyn, I’ve heard about your situation… It’s okay.” Seeing Eva walk away, Thomas looked at me with concern in his eyes.
I nonchalantly shook my head. “It’s all over now, and that’s really good.”
Thomas’s gaze was still weighed down with worry.
He was extremely perceptive, and he naturally knew that I hadn’t completely escaped from my previous marriage, so he didn’t ask any further questions.
“Miss Evelyn, why don’t you perform figure skating?” Thomas suggested thoughtfully.
After all, a bad mood needed to be relieved.
Hearing that suggestion, I felt a bit of an itch in my heart.
Although my skating skills weren’t as good as Thomas’s, I had practiced seriously. At first, I only practiced
to impress Thomas, but later on, I genuinely fell in love with figure skating.

“Sure.” I thought, after all, there wasn’t much else to do right then, and it’d be fun. “But I want to bring Eva along.”
Thomas naturally didn’t object.
Upon hearing that Thomas and I would take her ice skating, Eva clapped her hands joyfully and started running around.
Thomas found skating shoes and training clothes for the two of us and then led us to the ice rink.
First, Thomas introduced Eva to the rink and taught her some simple moves while I began warming up.
Eva’s learning speed was surprisingly fast, and she was able to skate around the rink under Thomas’s guidance in a short time.
I followed along with graceful glides, holding Eva’s other hand, and the three of us skated together.
Suddenly, our little group of two tall figures and a smaller one on the ice looked so handsome, beautiful, and the child was just adorable. It immediately drew a lot of attention and admiration from others.
At certain moments, wonderful music played from above in the venue.
Instinctively, I pushed Eva away with a spin, and Thomas skillfully caught her from the other side.
Eva laughed happily and wanted to do it again.
I lifted her up while Thomas leaned back behind me, politely protecting my waist, and we spun together.
Thomas’s skills were excellent, and I had no worries that Eva and I would fall.
In the midst of the passionate music, I danced freely, following my heart.
From a distance, people could see a tall, slender skater whose dance skills allowed every movement to be executed precisely in rhythm with the music while also exuding an air of sexiness.
At some point, Thomas’s gaze had become gentle. He slightly folded his arms, allowing me to embrace Eva in my arms, and the curve of his lips clearly showed indulgence.
“Yo, such a happy family.”
On the other end, Cathy and Lucas walked in, and Cathy exclaimed.
Lucas looked up and saw the three of us. Since Eva and I were wearing helmets, he didn’t recognize us at

first. Like Cathy, he also thought the scene was beautiful.
As the dance music ended, I took off my helmet and casually tossed my long hair. “That was amazing!”
Upon recognizing me, Lucas was clearly taken aback!
He’d never known that I could skate so skillfully.
In his impression, aside from being cunning, I was dull and boring.
Eva also took off her helmet. “Mom, it was so much fun!”
The little girl didn’t notice Lucas’s presence because she was completely charmed by Thomas. She held Thomas’s hand tightly and wouldn’t let go. “Uncle Thomas, can I call you dad? You can be Eva’s dad.”
She’d heard Fredrica say that after her parents divorced, her mom would find a better uncle to be her dad. Eva really liked Thomas ‘a lot and thought it would be wonderful if he could become her dad.
Hearing that, Lucas’s face suddenly turned grim!
Though he didn’t say anything, Cathy could still feel an icy chill in the air around her, and her heart skipped a beat.
“Thomas, can you watch over Eva for a moment? I need to use the restroom.” I didn’t pay much attention
to Eva’s words and entrusted her to Thomas’s care before stepping into the restroom.
As soon as I entered, the door behind me slammed shut.
I was startled, and when I turned around, I saw a dark face.
Lucas was standing behind me, his eyes filled with darkness.
