Everyone was chatting when Larkin and Wayne strolled over with Cory.
"Larkin!"
"Dad!!"
Ivy broke away from Rosalynn's arms, ran up to Wayne, and hugged him.
With a long face, she relayed the incident where someone tried to attack Paige.
"It must scared you, right?" Wayne squatted down and gently patted Ivy's back.
Ivy nodded, choking back tears, "Thank god Liam was there, I'm too short to block that high heel!"
The adults present couldn't help but laugh at this comment.
Larkin then gave Paige a once-over, "You're okay."
"Should we check on Baillie too? I think he might be more startled!" Paige joked, holding Baillie's hand, trying to lighten the mood.
Larkin turned to Baillie.
Baillie gave a helpless smile, "If you're okay, then I'm not scared."
Wayne led Ivy to Rosalynn's side, the family squeezing onto a two-seater sofa.
"Where's Max?" Rosalynn gently asked Wayne.
"He's still sleeping." Wayne replied, "Don't let him dive again, his fur is full of all sorts of stuff."
Rosalynn chuckled.
Just then, her phone buzzed twice.
A message from Jaime.
"I'm fine!" Paige waved her hand, "Ivy, with her little boyfriend Liam, knocked the high heel that was attacking me right off, it landed straight on Regina's head, it was so dramatic!"
Baillie helplessly chimed in, "If Wayne heard about 'Ivy's little boyfriend', he wouldn't sleep for three days."
"He's not here, we can whisper!" Paige said in a low voice.
Seeing Paige as lively as ever, Luna was relieved, "I'm sorry for the trouble."
"What are you apologizing for!" Paige said, touching Baillie's cheek, "It's all because Baillie is too attractive! It's not your fault!"
Baillie looked helpless, "Just yesterday you were talking about getting me plastic surgery to make me uglier, were you serious?"
"Absolutely not!" Paige immediately objected, "Does that make sense? If someone likes my stuff, should I just destroy it? Absolutely not!"
Baillie broke into laughter. He knew Paige's way of thinking all too well.
Luna, watching from the side, couldn't help but chuckle, "Could you two stop for a moment, I haven't eaten anything today, but your PDA has already filled me up."
