Oops! My Secret Baby Is Caught By His Top-Lawyer Daddy! Novel

---- Chapter 149: Replenish Yourself In Clara's mind, she imagined a top player behind the wheel, yet in reality, she drove like a beginner, inching the Zonda along at a snail's pace. Poor Pagani. This supercar, built for speed, now crawled like a tractor. The spectators around the track could barely contain themselves, itching to jump in and take over. Clara had had enough. She swapped seats with Aaron, and without a word to anyone, they drove off. A few minutes passed before Clara realized they weren't heading back to the hotel. Aaron was driving steadily uphill. "It's so late.

Aren't we going home?" she asked. Aaron's voice was calm. "Stay with me a little longer." Ten minutes later, they reached the mountaintop. At night, the mountaintop looked like a painting of serenity and mystery. Time seemed to stand still, and everything felt still and beautiful. Clara stepped out of the car, leaning against it as she ---- gazed at the sky. The stars spread out like a sparkling canvas. Countless stars twinkled faintly, scattered across the sky like diamonds, glimmering in the night. Aaron got out too and draped his jacket over her shoulders.

They stood side by side, leaning close together. "I used to come here when I was unhappy," he said quietly. "Back then, only work brought me any joy. I didn't know what love was, or what home felt like. I had a father and a mother, but to me, they were just words in a textbook, empty and cold." Clara wrapped her arms around his waist, listening in silence. "Even when I bought my first house, I thought that was home. Turns out, it wasn't. Coming back after work, it felt no different from a hotel room." He exhaled slowly, lips curling into a small, thoughtful smile.

"All the hotels in my group had rooms saved for me. Home was just a place to stay." "It wasn't until you and Leo came into my life that I truly understood what coming home felt like. I realized people need breaks, need warmth. Only then did I understand what home really means." ---- Clara leaned into him, listening as he spoke. Never before had their hearts felt this close. It was almost unbelievable that six months ago, she had insisted they were strangers who couldn't understand each other. The mountaintop at night had a way of cleansing the soul.

Here, all worries and burdens could be left behind. Nature's embrace and the infinite universe made one feel small and yet at peace. Sharing such a moment with the one you loved was a rare gift. "Clara," Aaron whispered, "promise me. No matter what happens, don't leave me. Let's grow old together, okay?" Clara entwined her fingers behind his neck, rose onto her toes, and kissed him fiercely, wanting to silence him with her lips. Prideful and strong as he was, he should never have spoken in such a vulnerable tone. Clara refused to let him do so.

The night air was cold, yet their bodies burned with heat.
