On the way, the three cheerful children chattered constantly in the backseat. Roxanne, initially reserved, gradually smiled, captivated by their joyful voices. Upon arriving at the hotel, she helped them from the car, and together, they entered the magnificently decorated lobby. A fish tank immediately caught their attention.

"It's beautiful!" Estella exclaimed, her eyes sparkling.

Roxanne saw the colorful tropical fish. "Let's go look!" Archie and Benny, eager to please Estella, led her to the tank. Observing their delight, Roxanne glanced at Lucian, who frowned and said deeply, "You go with them. I'll get the rooms."

Hesitantly, Roxanne nodded and followed the children. Lucian, with a serious expression, approached the front desk.

Roxanne watched the children point at the fish, feeling a swell of contentment. She snapped a picture of their bright, innocent smiles beside the tank. Chuckling at the photograph, she quietly joined them.

"Look, Mommy! They're kissing!" Benny exclaimed, pointing to a pair of pink fish.

Roxanne saw the fish swimming intimately. "Mommy, what kind of fish is this?" Benny asked, captivated by this novel sight.

Roxanne explained, "If you like them, we can get some at home, but you have to help care for them." The children nodded enthusiastically.

Reluctantly, they turned from the tank. As Roxanne guided them to the front desk, their gazes kept drifting back. Lucian still stood at the desk, frowning, seemingly encountering a problem. Roxanne hurried to him. "Haven't you booked the rooms?"

Lucian nodded slightly, gesturing towards the staff.

"Hello," the staff member said respectfully, "Due to the peak season, only one presidential suite is available. Would you like to take it?"

Roxanne stared at Lucian, stunned. While the coincidence was striking, his stern expression prevented suspicion. She accepted it as chance.

"I'm very sorry," the staff member apologized. "Ten minutes earlier, and we'd have had two suites. Now, there's only one."

Roxanne felt a pang of guilt, believing their late arrival caused the issue.
