"Hello, young master!!"
As soon as he entered, the servants each greeted him with imnse excitent, their faces brimming with joyous smiles, as if their own son had returned!
Finn Morgan smiled gently at everyone.
"Finn!" Zachary rce stood up from the sofa, holding a cup of tea as he approached him, "You’ve been driving for so long, you must be tired, right? Take a break first, here, have so tea to quench your thirst!"
"Thank you, Uncle." Finn took the teacup, his expression calm, and after taking a sip, he handed the cup to a servant beside him.
With his parents not around, Zachary rce acted more like a prospective father-in-law, using an elder’s tone to express his concern—
"How many hours does it take to drive from Riventhal?"
"You’re not leaving today, right? Did you manage to get a few more days off?"
"Your return, it made your parents and Grandpa so unbelievably happy!" Zachary rce said with a cheerful laugh, "Of course, I’m very happy too! But the happiest of all must be lissa."
Listening to this, lissa, who was by the side with exquisite makeup, shyly lowered her gaze, her heart thumping wildly.
Zachary rce continued, "Since last night she’s been eagerly waiting, and she ca early this morning to help set up for the banquet."
It was clear he wanted to help his daughter earn credit.
Unfortunately, Finn didn’t even glance at her, completely treating lissa as if she were invisible.
At this ti, Finn’s parents ca out of the room, their joy at the sight of their son evident on their faces!
"Dad, Mom." Finn greeted them warmly.
They hadn’t seen each other for four years, and everyone felt a bit distant; with the rcer family present, they just exchanged a few simple words.
In a room on the first floor, two elderly n with heads full of silver hair were chatting happily, each leaning on a similar cane.
Old Albright wore a white suit and a red bow tie, looking both sophisticated and spirited.
A makeup artist was tidying his hair, arranging his silver locks ticulously.
"How can this be? This outfit looks like a groom’s!" Old Albright complained as he stared at his reflection in the mirror.
Grandpa Morgan patted his shoulder, "What’s wrong with looking like a groom? You can marry ! Then we’ll truly be like family."
Old Albright was amused by his friend’s joke.
The helping servants couldn’t help but laugh too.
Suddenly, an idea struck Grandpa Morgan, and he asked earnestly, "Old Albright, didn’t you ntion before that you have a granddaughter? Is she married?"
"She just turned 20 and isn’t married yet." Talking about Hailey, Grandpa Albright looked proud, "She’s been unique in her thinking since she was little, very clever, and extrely independent. I truly love her with all my heart."
"Will she be here today?" Grandpa Morgan asked happily, "My grandson just ca back! He’s quite the talent, a double PhD graduate from a prestigious university, tall, handso, with unmatched learning and talent."
In the living room outside.
After a brief conversation with the rcer family and his parents, Finn’s expression softened greatly, "Where’s Grandpa? I’d like to see him."
"In this room!" a servant gestured with a polite hand as they led the way, explaining, "Today, the master’s old friend, Old Albright, is also here; they’ve shared life-and-death experiences and were born on the very sa day."
He had heard about this.
When Finn reached the doorway, lissa followed him.
The voices of the two elderly n’s conversation drifted out—
"You’ll definitely be impressed with my grandson!" Grandpa Morgan said with a smile, "I’ll introduce him to your excellent granddaughter in a bit; let’s see if we can match them up!"
Finn listened, his expression remained calm.
But lissa’s face turned green, and even her breathing beca a bit erratic. How could Grandpa Morgan do this?!
