At breakfast the next morning, Lucianne was giving her full attention to little Lily on her lap. Xandar took the opportunity to discreetly look through precious stones on his phone. He already got the jewellery designer’s contact number from Christian a few days ago, and Xandar already picked out a design. All that was left to do was to pick the jewels to put into that design. The designer advised Xandar to pick out something that ‘symbolises you and your mate’.
He was scrolling through the catalog when he felt a warmth on his thigh. Xandar looked up and traced the small hand there to Jasper, who was trying to take a peek at his phone. At that very moment, Lucianne was dragged away by a few other kids to see their seashell collection framed up on the walls.
Xandar offered little Jasper a warm smile, and placed the boy on his lap before he asked, “Jasper, can you keep a secret?”
Jasper nodded dotingly with his large, brown eyes.
