A gentle smile formed on Rachel’s lips as she greeted them.

“Hello,

Mr.

and Mrs.

Jimenez.”

Unlike Roger’s sentimental mother, his father seemed much more composed.

He nodded in response to Rachel’s greeting.

“It’s cold out here.

Let’s go inside.”

After instructing the butler to take out the items from the trunk,

Roger lifted his arm to hold her shoulder and entered the house.

In the living room, Mr.

and Mrs.

Jimenez sat in the center of the sofa while Clara settled down on the couch beside them.

Roger and

Rachel sat next to each other, and Riley was taken upstairs by a maid.

Roger was worried about how Rachel was feeling, so he patted the back of her hand to comfort her.

“Rachel, I heard you’ve been very busy with your work lately, and you’ve just returned and retaken over the Bennet Group.

Aren’t you tired?” Roger’s mother felt helpless when she saw Roger’s gestures.

“Thank you for your concern, Mrs.

Jimenez.

Everything goes well,”

Rachel replied.

Roger’s father reached for the cup on the table and took a sip of tea.

He then put it down slowly, stood up, and glanced at Roger.

“Roger, come with me.

I have something to tell you.”

Confused, Roger raised his brows as he looked up at his father.

He didn’t expect his father to ask him to leave so suddenly.

He didn’t even give Roger a chance to refuse, nor did he give him an explanation.

He turned around after saying that, walked out of the living room, and headed to the study upstairs.

Roger frowned and remained still for some time.

He was concerned that if he left, Rachel would feel uneasy.

However, Rachel wasn’t surprised.

Before she came here, she had expected that Roger’s parents might not accept her.

The Sullivan family and the Jimenez family had been rivals in business from the beginning.

Also, Rachel was once Victor’s wife, which was hard for Roger’s parents to accept.

And even if they accepted her, what would the public say?

Roger’s parents had to take the Jimenez family into account.

They couldn’t let outsiders pay their family unwanted attention.

Additionally, she had a child whose father belonged to the Sullivan family.

Knowing what was bothering Roger, Rachel gave him a reassuring look.

Roger’s mother knew her son very well.

How could she possibly be ignorant of his thoughts? She took a sip of tea and observed the two.
