The Villain Mom Awakens — Going Viral by Parenting on a Reality Show-Chapter 394 - 396: Recording the Eighth Episode

"I know what you’re worried about."

Aidan Dawson walked up to her. "When you said you needed to think about it just now, I guessed you had some concerns."

"I don’t want to hold you back. Our lives are too different."

"How are they different?" Aidan Dawson said emotionally. "No one is more perfect for each other than we are."

Aidan Dawson glanced down at Nathan Lynch and gently ruffled his hair. He looked back at Victor Vance, his gaze exceptionally firm. "I did a lot of thinking on the way home... I’ve made up my mind. We won’t have any children after we get married. Nathan will be my only child; he’ll be my own son. I’ve already discussed it with my parents, and they both respect and support my decision. I have a younger brother, and his relationship with his girlfriend is stable, so you don’t need to worry about anything on my family’s side."

"Aidan, you..." Victor Vance said in disbelief. She never thought Aidan Dawson would be willing to go this far for her.

"I’m doing this because I want to. Don’t feel guilty about it. If you’re willing to accept me, I’ll go get a vasectomy tomorrow."

Aidan Dawson carefully took Victor Vance’s hand.

It was just a simple gesture of holding her hand, but it was something he had dreamed about for years yet never had the courage to do. The moment he finally held her hand, Aidan Dawson felt his eyes inexplicably begin to sting.

With his other hand, he pulled a diamond ring he had prepared long ago from his pocket and knelt on one knee again. "Victor, I know I’m being shameless and brazen. But... are you willing to give me a chance? Let’s not think about the past. Starting now, can we start over as a family?"

Victor Vance took out a handkerchief and wiped the tears from her face.

"Mom, say yes to Uncle Dawson."

Victor Vance glanced at Nathan Lynch, feeling as if she were being supported by an invisible strength in her son’s eyes.

She closed her eyes for a moment, then managed a smile.

"I do."

During a phone call, Naomi Kenway heard Victor Vance’s good news and was genuinely happy for her.

After all these years of twists and turns, the two lovers finally had their happy ending.

"Congratulations! I’ll be sure to give you a huge red envelope when the time comes!"

Nathan Lynch’s young voice came through the phone again. He chatted with Naomi Kenway for a bit before asking, "Auntie, where’s Ian?"

Naomi Kenway looked around, remembering that Ian had been staying in his bedroom recently, seemingly busy with something.

Naomi Kenway replied gently, "Ian is busy right now. I’ll have him call you back later, okay, Nathan?"

Nathan Lynch obediently replied, "Okay."

After hanging up, Naomi Kenway got up from the sofa, stretched, and went upstairs to pack her luggage.

Just yesterday, she had received an invitation to film the eighth installment of *My Super Mom*.

After Renee Jennings’s scandal broke, it had a huge impact on the show. The producers were forced to cut a lot of content, and anything related to Renee Jennings and Christina Lynch was no longer searchable. It had been over a month since the seventh installment ended, and now, to the public’s great anticipation, the show was returning with some adjustments.

With Renee Jennings’s departure, one of the five regular guests was gone. According to the production team’s official announcement, they had already found a replacement. However, they hadn’t revealed who it was. The production team was keeping everyone in suspense, claiming they were pioneering a new format and keeping the guest a secret to give the audience a surprise. They promised this guest was a "heavyweight."

It wasn’t just the audience who was in the dark; Naomi Kenway hadn’t received any news either. But she wasn’t particularly concerned about it and didn’t give it much thought.

In addition, the director had called her personally to ask if Naomi Kenway had any plans to bring Ethan Shaw on the show. The director mentioned that the fathers’ appearance during the sixth installment had generated great publicity, and the other four guest families had already agreed.

This included the family of the new replacement guest.

Naomi Kenway paused for a moment. "I’ll discuss it with my husband."

The director said, "Of course, Ms. Kenway. I look forward to your reply."

At dinner, Naomi Kenway told Ethan Shaw about the invitation to film. "I’m not sure if you’ll have the time."

"I have time," Ethan Shaw answered decisively.

Naomi Kenway smiled and nodded. "Great, I’ll let the production team know later."

’Ethan used to hate being on camera, but at some point, he started to enjoy joining me for work, often appearing with me in front of the media.’

Ian also seemed very excited about the news of the upcoming filming. That night, after his bedtime story, he didn’t close his eyes as usual. Instead, he excitedly grabbed Naomi Kenway’s hand and chattered for a while.

"Yay! We get to film again! Ian loves traveling with Mommy!!"

A smile couldn’t help but spread across Naomi Kenway’s face.

"Is brother Nathan not going to be on the show anymore? Does that mean Ian won’t get to see him?" As he said this, Ian’s voice was tinged with disappointment, and his head drooped.

Naomi Kenway comforted him.

"It’s okay. We can go visit Aunt Vance and Nathan after we’re done filming."

Ian nodded and blinked his eyes. "Mommy, I can’t sleep..."

"Is it because you’re too excited?" Naomi Kenway asked with a smile.

Ian Shaw nodded. "Mommy, can you sing me another song? I want to hear the one from yesterday!"

"Okay," Naomi Kenway agreed and began to hum softly. 𝙛𝒓𝓮𝙚𝔀𝒆𝒃𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝓵.𝙘𝒐𝒎

’The lullabies she sang were all ones Rose Kenway had sung to her. The familiar melodies felt as if she had heard them a million times, and they came to her without a second thought.’

The next day, Naomi Kenway’s family boarded a plane as usual. This time, their destination was Moreland Province.

After getting off the plane, the guests met up. Naomi Kenway greeted the others first, and they chatted for a bit while holding their suitcases.

Margaret Jennings glanced around. "I don’t see the new guest. Isn’t she traveling with us?"

"The production team said they wanted to create a sense of surprise. Maybe she’ll only be revealed when we get to the destination," Naomi Kenway said.

After leaving the airport, the guest families boarded a bus. They chatted about a wide range of topics, but no one mentioned Renee Jennings. Even Chelsea Raines, who was usually the most talkative, didn’t dare bring up her name. This was because Renee Jennings had been blacklisted by the media authorities. Exploiting a child for fame was strictly forbidden, to say nothing of the fact that she had also abused a child and knowingly been a homewrecker.

’Chelsea Raines had been truly shocked when she heard the news. She never imagined Renee Jennings was that kind of person—someone who would deliberately destroy another person’s family and even abuse a child.’

’Thinking about how many times her own son had been around Renee Jennings made her skin crawl.’

’She snuck a glance at Naomi Kenway, thinking about how she never expected Naomi’s husband to be such a powerful figure.’

A snore came from beside her. Gene Woods had fallen asleep. Chelsea Raines shot him a look of disgust.

Gene Woods hadn’t wanted to come, and Chelsea Raines hadn’t wanted to bring him along to embarrass her. But he had a bad habit of jumping on any rumor he heard. As soon as someone told him that appearing on the show could promote his company and his personal image, he had tagged along, pleased as punch.
