"If we want to match, the first choice is naturally his biological parents. We can't hide it." Sophie saw her husband's concerns and said sadly.
"I know. We'll go back to China soon!" Edwin said with certainty to his wife.
Sophie looked at Edwin, wiped away her tears and nodded. They were going home right away!
Today, Lucia always felt bored but she didn't know why, so she could only attribute it to the heavy rain. It had been raining for three consecutive days.
In the afternoon, while Lucia was burying at work, Arthur suddenly came, and Daphne hurriedly ushered him into the office.
"Lucia," Entering the office, Arthur motioned Daphne to leave first with his eyes, while he came to Lucia and said softly to her, "Can you put down the work at hand?"
"What's wrong?"Lucia asked him, looking up at Arthur.
"My parents suddenly came back from USA. They'll be there in two hours. They said we should go home and wait for them." Arthur replied and his expression was a little weird.
Lucia frowned slightly and asked Arthur, "What's the matter? They are back home. Don't you seem very excited?"
There seemed to be some misgiving in Arthur's face that Lucia could sense.
Arthur squeezed Lucia's shoulder lightly, turned to look at the heavy rain outside the window, hesitated for a moment, and said,
"Now is the time when Davonnis Corp headquarters is reviewing the work in the second quarter. Dad does it himself every time. If there is no major matter, he will not leave the company at this time, let alone with my mom."
Lucia chuckled and comforted Arthur, "Are you thinking too much? Maybe they just come back when they are free, and after a few days... maybe they come back to give us ideas."
Arthur smiled, but was not truly relieved. He knew his father very well. He was always serious and responsible for his work. Even if he was really here to come up with an idea, he would not bring his mom back home so suddenly. A video phone call could do the same thing.Content (C) Nôv/elDra/ma.Org.
"Maybe so," Arthur asked. Not wanting Lucia to be as worried as he was, he pretended to agree with her and asked, "Can we go home now?"
"Yeah, yes."Lucia responded and put together the important documents that she was reviewing just now. Although the work was important, his parents were equally important.
Arthur helped Lucia pick up her coat and bag, helped her tidy the table together, and the two left the office together. When they passed the assistant seat, Lucia explained the work to Daphne and Nia for a while, and then returned to Fragranerde Hall with Arthur.
It was rare for Lucia and Arthur to show up at home at three o'clock in the afternoon, and Juliana was surprised to see them when she was playing in the living room with her son who was in her arms. "Arthur, Lucia, why are you back? Isn't it just past three?"
"My parents are back from USA. They'll be there in an hour and a half. We're back and wait for them," Arthur replied.
"Your parents are back?" Juliana said in surprise, "Why so suddenly?"
"I don't know, maybe on a whim." Arthur replied with a faint smile.
"I haven't seen your parents for a long time. No, I have to go up and clean up." Juliana had special respect for Arthur's father. Seeing that she was still wearing nursing clothes, she handed the baby to Lucia to take care of, and hurried upstairs to change clothes..
Lucia was holding the baby. It happened that the baby was full of milk. Now he was the most lovable and babbling. The little doll stretched out his hand and kept touching Lucia's chin, which made Lucia's heart melt.
"The baby is really cute..."Lucia tapped the tip of the baby's nose with her fingers, and her eyes looked so gentle.
"Yeah, the baby looks like Kane as he gets older now," Arthur was also amused by the cuteness of the baby. He couldn't help thinking of his own son, so he asked Lucia,
"Will Teddy start to look like me when he grows up?"
Lucia glanced at Arthur with a smile, and sad,
"Well, Teddy was very handsome when he was born. I have to say that Davis family genes are indeed strong. At that time, the nurses and doctors said that it was very rare to meet a child who was so handsome from birth. Later, we took him home and he grows up just like you. Helena joked that Teddy could use his own picture to find his biological father."
"Really?" Hearing that his son had been praised as soon as he was born, Arthur said proudly,
"My son is naturally different. He is destined to be the best of the best. But if you really listened to Helena at the time, maybe our family of three would have been reunited long ago."
"I think it's very good now," Lucia said with a smile and arched eyebrows, "It is precisely because of five years that I can become better, and you have grown. If I met you in the state I was then, there may not be any chemistry between us."
Seeing that Lucia was able to let go of the past and be grateful, Arthur couldn't help but wrap this woman with only sunshine and warmth in her heart,
"I'm really glad that we can meet again."
Lucia leaned carefully into Arthur's arms with the baby in her arms, "I hope this will pass quickly and Teddy will be back with us as soon as possible, so we can be together as a family."
"Yes." Arthur responded with a smile.
Juliana finally changed her clothes, and just after she went downstairs and brought the baby back, Jan came in, "Mr. Davies, I'm going to pick up your parents."
"Well, be careful on the road," Arthur commanded.
"Yes." Jan answered and went out, while Arthur and the others waited patiently for Edwin and Sophie to arrive at home.
At five o'clock in the afternoon, Jan took Edwin and Sophie back to Fragranerde Hall. Arthur greeted them as soon as he saw his car appearing outside the door. Lucia also stood up and joined him. Juliana waited in the living room with the baby.
"Dad, Mom!" Although he had just met his parents not long ago, they were usually separated by thousands of miles, so Arthur couldn't help but get excited when he saw them.
"Edwin, Sophie."Lucia greeted them with a smile.
"Okay, let's go home." Sophie whispered with a slight smile, while Edwin was serious and didn't say a word at all.
Sensing that something was wrong with them, Arthur and Lucia looked at each other with suspicion, but they welcomed the two elders into the house together, with Lucia holding Sophie's arm.
