"Hey, do you run away every time you see me now that you think you're all grown up?" Fleur complained.

"Mom..."

"You're my son, for heaven's sake! You foolish kid!" Fleur reprimanded.

Lena approached with a smile and nodded. "Hello, Mrs. Hamerton."

Fleur adjusted her hair with the arrogance of a peacock, taking five seconds before replying with a nonchalant,

"Hmm, hello."

She soon noticed her hands were empty—no accessories adorned them.

Chris quickly grasped the situation and interjected, aware of his mother's scrutinizing gaze. "Mom, it's not that Lena

doesn't want to wear the ring you bought her. It's just that it's too big for her slender fingers, and I thought it

wouldn't match the occasion. Besides, the ring holds sentimental value for her. She's been keeping it safe in a

drawer. She hardly ever takes it out!"

Fleur glanced at him and pouted. "I didn't say anything. What are you rambling about?"

"I..."

"I know. You young folks don't like the style of the ring!"

"No, Mrs. Hamerton!" Lena hurriedly explained. "I really like it..."

"Tell him to buy you a new one if you don't like it," Fleur suggested with a smile. "Buy as many as you want!"

Chris and Lena were taken aback, exchanged glances, and then smiled.

Fleur got up and grabbed Lena's hand, her eyes filled with the love she had for her daughter-in-law. "Our Lena is

the best! The charity project was a success. Although Mr. Chriss planned it, you deserve credit as the assistant!"

"You're too kind, Mrs. Hamerton."

"Is she that great?" Chris widened his eyes as if looking at an alien. "I thought you didn't like—"

"Who do I not like?" Fleur widened her eyes even more. "I don't like you, foolish kid!"

He was rendered speechless.

Meanwhile, Zuko observed the scene and whispered to Chris, "This runs in the family! Parents always dislike their

child's partner initially, but they eventually come around."

"Lena, choose the expensive ring! Chris had quite the allowance when he was in the special forces— saved up a lot,

being the penny-pincher he is. Seize the opportunity. Make him pay for you!" Fleur advised.

"Mom..."

Lena couldn't stop smiling.

Zuko approached Lena, asking her to look after Lina as he and Chris needed to entertain their friends.

"Of course," Lena agreed immediately. "Where is she?"

"In the nursing room," Zuko replied with a smile. "Sephy was hungry and fussy. Lina went to feed her. She might

take a nap after."

Worried that Lina might need assistance, Lena hurried to the nursing room. -

After feeding the baby, the contented little princess rested on her mother's shoulder, soon drifting off to sleep.

Lina gently patted her to encourage her to sleep. After placing the baby in the nearby bed, she stood upright to

massage her shoulder.

"You must be exhausted," Lena said as she approached to give her a massage. "Being a mom is tough. How long

will you carry her like this?"

"As I think about it now, not for much longer." Lina smiled. "I feel a bit sad knowing that she will grow up and won't

need me to carry her."

Suddenly, the door handle moved. Lena's senses heightened, and she gestured for Lina to watch the baby as she

cautiously approached the door.

Through the peephole, she saw nothing. However, the door handle moved slightly again as she turned around.

She couldn't help but call out, "Who is it?"

After a brief silence, there was a polite knock. "Are you in there, Ms. Lena?"
