In the Wayne Family villa, the lights were all on. Old Mrs. Wayne sat in the living room and watched the two grandchildren as they drove around the living room. She was in a peaceful mood and would occasionally smile along with the little guy's expression.
Lareina came down from the stairs and looked at the time. It was already dark outside the window, his youngest son said that he wanted to bring his girlfriend back for dinner, so they should be there soon.
Lily brought out a laptop and sat on the sofa in Edwards's study. Both of them still had matters to take care of, so the study was especially quiet. Only the sound of Lily's fingers touching the keyboard and the orders of Edwards made by phone could be heard.
Suddenly, the sound of a car came from outside the window. Lily raised her eyes and looked at the man for a moment, then Edwards placed down the pen in his hand, stood up and tidied up his clothes: "They should be here, let's go and take a look!"
"En!" Lily stretched her back, realizing that there was something wrong with working at home, it was that she could be lazy at any time, and could never achieve her desired goal.
"What's wrong?" When Edwards saw her resentful expression, he couldn't help but reach out and ruffle her long hair. Just now, when he saw her working, he was always in a bored state, so he wanted to take care of her a little.
"It's nothing. It's just that we don't finish today, which led to an increase in the workload tomorrow!" Lily was angry at herself.
After Edwards heard it, he started chuckling and comforted her, "Don't give yourself too much pressure, if you can't finish it, you don't have to do it. I can bring in a few more designers to share the work."
"The Edwards sure knows how to empathize with subordinates, but it can't solve the underlying problem!" Lily's mood instantly improved. With this man's concern and gentleness, she seemed to not be as depressed as before.
"I don't want to see you frown like that. You long! If you don't insist on working, I could have let you play at home every day!" Edwards said with a serious face.
"I know you want to raise me, but I also know that women have to be a bit more independent. They can't rely too much on men, or else what will they do if they become detested in the future?" Lily said shamelessly.
Edwards's handsome face tensed up, and he quickly made a firm promise, "I will definitely not despise you."
"I'm afraid that I will despise myself. Alright, I can solve the problem of work myself. Don't worry about me. Let's go downstairs and take a look!" Lily tugged his arm, and the two of them walked down the stairs.
At this moment, Joshua stopped the car, gently holding Elizabeth's small hand, only to realize that her hand was as cold as ice. It looks like forcefully bringing her here to see her family was indeed a very stressful matter.
Lareina had already quickly walked out. When she saw her youngest son, she was very happy.
"Josh, I am just thinking why aren't you here yet."
Joshua smiled at his mother and saw that there were two tails behind his mother. Both of their heads were shaking out as they shouted at the same time, "Uncle!"
Joshua gently caressed Emma's little head and said, "Wait, uncle has brought a present for you!"
"Yeah, why uncle comes every time, you bring us a present?" Emma was extremely happy.
Joshua squatted down and answered with a smile: "Because uncle likes the two of you!"
Joshua stood up and opened the door to the front passenger seat.
"Hello, Auntie!" Elizabeth lowered her head, not daring to look at Lareina's expression. Because, in her heart, Elizabeth was very anxious, and was also very much blaming herself.
Lareina said gently: "Eliza, don't be afraid, I won't blame you. It's cold outside, come in."
Elizabeth had already known that Lareina was a very good mother. Lareina had a gentle temper and was a kind person. It was all weird that mom was too greedy and she also harm for her marriage.
Joshua extended his hand and firmly gripped Elizabeth's palm. "Let's go, my mother really isn't blaming you!"
"I know!" Elizabeth heaved a sigh of relief.
When they entered the living room, Joshua and Lily walked down the stairs, Lily had already taken the initiative to greet them. "Eliza, you've come!"
