Bryan deliberately leaked some news to Chase. "I heard from a friend that Belinda's folks are setting her up on blind dates and pushing her to get married. She's pretty much given up on the idea of falling in love, but she’s all in on the whole marriage thing right now, saying she'll settle for just about anyone. Chase, if you don't step it up, she's going to be walking down the aisle for someone else.”
Chase quirked a smile and flung himself deep into thought. "Is that so?”
Bryan continued. "I heard she's meeting the son of a family friend at S Melodies Restaurant this weekend. It was arranged by her family. You might want to check it out.”
After saying this, Bryan quickly turned and dashed to hop into Ida's car.
Ida was waiting for Chase, but instead of coming over, he went in the opposite direction to get into his own car.
After seeing Chase leave, Ida frowned and glanced sideways at Bryan. "What did you say to him?”
Bryan lounged in the passenger seat. "Nothing much. He probably had something come up. Let's go! Weren't you craving some barbecue?”
Ida sighed, knowing that the impish Bryan was definitely behind this, but she couldn't do anything about it.
With a press on the gas pedal, she drove out of the underground parking lot.

After Tristan woke up, Ellinor took the three kids to the nearest toy store, allowing each of them to pick out a toy they liked.
Baber and Layla were not shy at all and enthusiastically browsed through the various aisles.
Tristan, on the other hand, was a bit reserved. He simply held onto Ellinor's hand, sticking close to her.
Ellinor looked down at him. "Why aren't you picking anything?”
