"Sir, Madam!"

As soon as our feet touched the ground, the servants dressed in uniform bowed at us respectfully. They wore black and white Victorian-styled outfits, as if they had walked right out of the last century.

I looked at Hendrix. He looked calm and collected as he finally reached the main hall after passing through the long corridor.

The main hall's decor was elegant and extravagant, and every detail was meticulously crafted.

On the leather sofa, two proud figures sat side by side. This was the first time I had seen Hendrix's mother, Suanne, face to face.

She sat next to Nathan with a smile. Her hair was long and black, her skin white as snow as if forever frozen in the age of old photos.

"Ah Hendrix, you both are finally here. Please take a seat," Suanne raised her hand and gestured for us to sit.

Even if she did not look that much older that I was, her voice was charismatic and full of charm.

Hendrix probably also felt worlds away. His tall figure stood where he was, as if his feet were filled with lead. The atmosphere suddenly turned a little awkward.

Nathan kept his gaze on his newspaper, and had no intention of talking to us. Suanne was a little far from him, but it seemed that they were on different sides, not communicating much. The importance of a mother was beyond words. I was worried about Hendrix's mood, so I secretly tugged at his arm. When he came to his senses, I immediately sat down with him. We sat across from each other and waited for the head of the family to speak.

The whole room was quiet for about two or three minutes before Nathan slowly placed the newspaper on the table. He glanced at Hendrix coldly and then fixed his eyes on me.

"Nice to see you, Arianna. You have

some guts. still remember you

lecturing me in the hotel." Nathan's voice was flat, like a military instructor who was interrogating a criminal. He did not show any sign of anger or authority.

He still remembered something from that long ago?

I pursed my lips and said with a smile, "Only people of the same kind will attract each other.

You and Suanne have blessed me with such an outstanding husband. I naturally can't make a fool of myself and embarrass him."

Nathan sneered with a hint of mockery, but did not answer. Suanne then said to me gently, "You still call me by name. It's time to change that."

I was stunned and then decided to obediently listen to her, "Dad, Mom."

Although both parties were reluctant, it was inevitable that we had to meet each other every now and then; we needed to keep the family harmonious before we could continue to get along. "Okay," Nathan nodded with satisfaction, shifted his dark brown eyes and looked at Hendrix calmly.

This meant that he was waiting for Hendrix to bow his head.

It seemed that the words "Father and Mother" were just titles that Hendrix had ascribed to him for decades. However, it was still a little difficult for him to call them as such.

Hendrix had already suppressed the

resistance he felt in his heart. In order to get the medicine for me, he took the initiative to make peace with the couple. How could bear to watch him compromise even more?

Looking at the fire burning in his eyes, I quickly patted him on the back of his hand and took the initiative to explain, "Hendrix told the babies a bedtime story two days ago and fell asleep by the bed. He caught a cold, and he can't speak at the moment. So, I'll be helping him speak on his behalf.

"Dad, Mom, for the sake of the babies, don't take this to heart."
