But little did she know, she had just stepped on a small rock and her whole body tilted backwardsElliot quickly stepped forward and caught the woman around the waist.
Rose fell into his arms. feeling his strong heartbeat as her cheeks flushed with a suspicious blush.After Elliot helped Rose stand upright. he tightened his grip on her hands and nervously looked at her."Are you okay?”
His warm breath sprayed onto Rose’s face, causing her heart to skip a beat or two.
Soon enough, she regained composure and pushed away from him in panic.
"I'm fine."
Even after distancing herself from Elliot, Rose could still feel her heart beating fast. She pretended to be calm by taking a deep breath before sayingwith a smile, "Thank you."
Elliot's lips curled up slightly as he gazed deeply into Rose's eyes.
Meanwhile, Sean snapped back to reality and quickly walked over to hald his mother's hand in concern.
"Serena, are you really okay?”
Rose shook her head slightly when she saw how worried Sean was looking at him. "I'm fine."
Shawn also came forward holding onto his father’s hand while admiring him respectfully,
"Dad! You were so cool just now!”
Hearing this made Rose purse her lips in anger towards herself for being so useless earlier! Why did I have to blush like that?
Just then, some young people who were laughing walked past them making envious comments: “Look over there! That family of four is all good-looking!"
"Yeah! The man is handsome; the woman is beautiful: they look really pleasing together!""They have both son and daughter - what an happy family!""Their children are too cute; I want one too!"
As Rose listened to their comments, the expression on her face gradually turned cold. She looked displeasedly at those who casually commentedabout others with furrowed brows wanting nothing more than telling them that they weren't even married!
But before she could say anything, Elliot grabbed hold of wrist from behind"There's an ice cream shop over there - kids must want some.”Rose turned around glancing at Elliot speechlessly wondering why he didn't care about those comments as if he agreed...

Shawn was stunned when he heard this. "Cro... crocodiles?!"
Sean looked back at Shawn with a faint expression and said arrogantly, "Coward, even afraid of crocodiles!"
Shawn frowned slightly and thought that since this sister wanted to see crocodiles, as a boy and an older brother, he couldn't be more cowardly thanher.
So after plucking up his courage, he immediately said, "I'm not afraid! Let's go see crocodiles now."
Elliot raised an eyebrow when he heard this. For some reason, at this moment, he suddenly felt that Shawn had become lively.Children should be like this.
The previous Shawn seemed to live without a soul
Elliot spoke up: "Let's go together and see the crocodiles.”
