In the blink of an eye, Gwyn's second birthday had come along. This was the first time Sheffield would celebrate his daughter's birthday, which was more than enough reason for him to throw a grand party.

The invitation List alone was so extensive that it covered every friend and relative they had and the venue of the event was the island

Sheffield had given to Evelyn as the bride price.

The entire island was shaped like a giant heart. From the pale tones of rose pink that were the essence of the guava, to the mellow yellows of mango, the cherry red hues of lychee and the fresh brown of soil, these were the epitome of the island. The flecks of green here and there were of the custard apple and freshly grown tea leaves. Overlooking from above, one would witness the beauty of nature in all its essence.

Since a lot of the guests were children, the number of bodyguards for the party had to be doubled so that every child was properly looked after on the island.

The laughter of children filled the air, while the adults happily threw shapes on the dance floor. The ones that didn't want to partake in such merriment took to other forms of entertainment such as singing games and other activities.

“Have you ever taught Gwyn how to dance?" Sheffield whispered softly into Evelyn's ears.

“No. She had PTSD not long after she could walk." Sheffield and Evelyn had arranged many classes for the little girl such as early childhood development lessons; drawing and even piano Lessons. However, they seemed to have missed out on dance classes.

Sheffield immediately decided to rectify the situation.

“It's okay.

I'll teach her!"

Before Evelyn knew it, Sheffield confidently strutted into the dance floor with their daughter in his arms, leaving Evelyn puzzled and at a loss for words.

On his daughter's second birthday, Sheffield accompanied Gwyn in the first dance of her life.

On the dance floor, Sheffield held Gwyn's hand and smiled, softly carrying her on his other arm. They swayed back and forth with grace, father and daughter, in a dance that left everyone staring at them in awe.

There was an expression of carefree happiness on the faces of both father and daughter, the bond between them seemingly stronger than ever.

The sight of their happy faces brought a smile and a sense of relief on

Evelyn's face as she placed her hands on her still flat belly.

Secretly in her mind, she prayed for a boy. A son and a daughter—the picture perfect family!

After the New Year, in the Hilton family manor

A vast blanket of fresh snow covered the ground, making the whole place seem magical. The sound of cheerful laughter echoed every now and then.

Freshly fallen snow could only mean one thing-a snowball fight!

Sheffield, Evelyn, Joshua, Matthew, Terilynn, and Gwyn all joined in on the fun.

While Joshua was busy making a snowman under a tree, Sheffield whispered in Gwyn's ear, "Gwyn, watch this

Suddenly, he dashed towards the tree and kicked it really hard, consequently causing snow from the leaves to fall and cover Joshua's entire body.

"Look! A snowman!" Sheffield yelled. Everyone burst into laughter, joyously enjoying this wonderful family time together.
