128 A family trait

When Nate and Lara walked into the penthouse, they found the twins sleeping on the couch. Jaden's head was on Samantha's lap, and the woman was distractedly playing with his hair while watching a movie.

Scarlet was sleeping in the corner of the sofa, her back turned to Samantha but touching the woman's side.

«They're adorable,» Samantha commented, smiling lightly. «I can keep them for you every time you want to date.»

«It won't happen often,» Lara said. «And thank you for your help.»

«Oh, but how so? You two should get to know each other better. And kids are always on the way...» Samantha tried, amused by the two shy expressions in front of her.

She could sense what the two were up to a few minutes before, but she couldn't just comment in front of Lara. They weren't close enough, and it looked like the woman was shy and reserved.
