"So, do I realize that potential now? Do I become a good man for you?" Vernon asked for validation. He wrapped his arms around Chloe's waist and intertwined his fingers around Chloe's belly, making sure to embrace her gently and carefully.

Chloe chuckled, "I will call you a good man once you put a ring on my finger. Coincidentally, I will also call you a good husband by then."

Vernon felt a surge of joy inside his heart.

He wouldn't lie. There was something absolutely mindblowing about finally proposing and marrying his beloved woman, who had occupied his dream for over a decade.

He felt that it was a well-deserved reward for all the hardships he had endured without Chloe by his side for the past ten years. It was like a good ending to a novel full of pain and a great start for a novel full of sweetness.

Vernon chuckled. He kissed Chloe's neck and said, "I'm far more eager than you, Love. I can't wait to have you."

"You said that many times, by the way," Chloe called out, giggling.

"And I will say that again," Vernon repeated. "I can't wait to have you."

"Mommmyyyy, Daddyyyyyy!"

Vernon and Chloe's sweet moment was shattered when Mackie rushed into their room and caught her Mommy and Daddy embracing each other in front of the mirror.

Chloe quickly pushed Vernon away and asked her daughter, "W—What's wrong, dear?"

Mackie pouted while glaring at her parents, "Stop hugging and let's go! I will be late, Mommy!"

They went to the basement, and instead of going with the usual car, Chloe grabbed her daughter's hand and led her to Vernon's car.

Mackie was confused when she entered her Daddy's car, "Are we not going with today?" She asked.

"No, dear, Daddy will drive us today," Chloe replied.

"But how about Aaron?"

"Well, your Granny drives him to school today."

"Un, I see…" Mackie nodded. She sat in the backseat while Mommy and Daddy were at the front, staring at the road as Daddy drove to her school.

Mackie looked at her Mommy, wondering why her Mommy dressed up so funnily today.

Mommy would usually wear a casual dress or a jacket and a skirt. She rarely wore something similar to what Daddy wore daily.

"Mommy, are you going somewhere today?" She asked.

"Uhm… yes, Daddy and I will go somewhere after dropping you off," Chloe replied.

"Where? Can I go too?" Mackie asked again. She got curious but also concerned, afraid that Mommy would try to meet her real Daddy again since her real Daddy wasn't as kind and caring as her Big Bad Wolf Daddy.

She still vividly remembered the attack her Mommy suffered from her real Daddy in the Principal's office during the autumn festival.

She would never forget how Mommy was beaten so badly, yet still tried to grab Mackie and ran away from evil real Daddy.

"Mommy, please don't get hurt…" Mackie asked out of concern.

Chloe looked back to her daughter, and her heart was aching, knowing that Mackie knew many things about her birth father.

The awful incident in the Principal's office during the Autumn festival would forever be engraved in the little girl's mind.

Honestly, Chloe would be much happier if she could tell Mackie about Vincent's awful behavior without having her witness the domestic abuse firsthand. At this point, there was no use for damage control.

"Don't worry, dear. I won't get hurt," Chloe said.

"But you got hurt by my Daddy before…" Mackie pouted. "Don't go, Mommy. I don't want you to get hurt…"

"Oh, dear…" Chloe extended her hand and reached out to wipe her daughter's tears. "Dear, I will not make the same mistake twice. Don't worry. I won't try to hurt myself. Besides, you don't need to worry when I have your Big bad wolf Daddy with me. He will protect me from any harm, right, Vernon?"

Vernon stopped the car in front of the school gate. He turned to the backseat and patted Mackie's head with his big, strong hand.

"Don't worry about your Mommy. I will protect her from any harm," Vernon assured.

Mackie was somewhat assured because she knew that her Big Bad Wolf Daddy wouldn't hurt Mommy and also would protect her from her real Daddy.

But she still pouted, "Hmph! I should've come! I will protect Mommy myself!"

Chloe chuckled, "You can protect me once you're older, dear. But for now, you should focus on your study first. Go and make Mommy proud in school by making many friends, listening to the teachers, and always being serious when it's time to study, okay?"

"Un, okay!" Mackie nodded vigorously. She stared at her Mommy and Daddy and then offered her pinky finger, "Promise me that you two will return home safely, okay? Please don't get hurt again, Mommy, and please protect her, Daddy…"

"I promise, dear," Chloe made a pinky promise to her daughter.

Vernon started the whole time, and he sighed when Mackie stared at her with the same doe eyes as Chloe.

"I promise," Vernon said before making the same pinky promise gesture to his daughter. "You should leave now, Little Wolf. You'll be late."

Mackie quickly kissed her Mommy and Daddy's cheeks before opening the car door, saying, "I want Mommy to cook dinner today. Daddy's food is ewww!"

"You—"

Mackie quickly ran away before she got scolded by her Daddy.

Chloe chuckled. It was so cute to see the dynamic between Vernon and Mackie. Knowing that her daughter cared so much for her was surely a confidence boost for her.

"It's great that Mackie is very energetic now. Changing school for her is really the best decision you can make for her," Chloe said while her eyes glued to Mackie's back as she joined her friends to enter the main gate.

"Of course, I won't let my daughter get traumatized by that bastard," Vernon said. He followed Mackie until she disappeared with her friends as she entered the school building.

Chloe and Vernon stared at each other after that. Silently giving each other encouragement, "Ready to face Vincent today?"

Chloe stared at Vernon's eyes and realized he was hopeful. He hoped they could finally get their happy ending, so Chloe knew it was time to end it all, "I am ready. Let's go, darling."

Are you ready for the finale? :D
