"It's nothing," Jane replied with a smile.

"Your workload isn’t heavy, so well be able to manage," Sean added.

"That's because you're capable enough to juggle between your tasks and my own, not because of how little work

there is," Steve said.

He knew that everyone already had their own share of assignments, so having them shoulder his burden would

definitely add to the amount of tasks they had to complete.

"We are all family, and being able to help each other is a good thing," Daniel said, and looked at Sean. "But you

need to take good care of yourself too. Just get another secretary to help you out if it's too much for you to handle."

"Yeah, I'll think about it," Sean said.

He knew that Daniel did not want him to sacrifice his and Jane's well-being for work, even though it was for the

good of the company.

Jane knew this all too well, so she smiled as a surge of warmth filled her from within.

After dinner, everyone gathered in the living room to have a chat as a family. It was rare for the entire family to be

back here as one, so they wanted to spend more time together.

Soon after, it got late, and Steve was the first to get up."

We'll head home first. Sally needs to get some sleep."

"Sure, and please take good care of Sally," Gloria reminded Steve.

"See you next time, Mom and Dad," Sally said, and flashed them a gentle smile.

"Okay, goodbye," Gloria nodded gently.

Steve then walked out of the house with Sally beside him, and the others followed suit one by one.

After a while, Cherry got up as well, and said, "I'm heading back too."

"Stanley should take you home," Gloria said.

In response, Cherry smiled and looked at Stanley. "You're my boyfriend now. Of course you'll have to drive me

home."

After she had spoken, Cherry looked at Tia. "Hey, I'm leaving now. Let's hang out some other day."

"Sure," Tia replied.

As Stanley and Cherry left the house together, a sense of loneliness began to creep up to Tia. She gritted her teeth,

trying her best not to reveal anything through any changes in her expression.

Then, Mrs. Wallace Sr. looked at Tia and said, "Tia, let's head home too."

'TH take you with me," Tia said, and pushed her out.

After everyone had left, Nolan and Lana turned to their parents, wanting to go back to their rooms. Seeing this,

Nicole and Jared brought them upstairs.

With the merriment in the house fading into sudden, pin drop silence, Gloria glanced around and remarked, "It's so

quiet now. I'm not used to it."

"It's okay. We can have them come back more often," Daniel comforted her.

"Alright, let's go to bed,” Gloria said, and followed Daniel upstairs.

Tia had already returned to the house at the backyard with Mrs. Wallace Sr., who was now watching as Tia made

her bed for her.

Feeling sorry for Tia, she asked, "You care about Stanley, don't you?"

"Grandma, I don't. He's from a different world," Tia explained as she felt somewhat flustered.

She had been trying her best to hide her feelings, but Mrs. Wallace Sr.'s question left her wondering, 'Did everyone

see through me?'

"You've been with me for so many years now. You don’t need to hide your feelings from me," Mrs. Wallace Sr.

sighed.

"I just didn't expect you to be so concerned about this issue, " Mrs. Wallace Sr. continued.

As it turned out, Tia's concern had always been about status. That was why she kept insisting on addressing him as

"Mr. Riddle" over the years. It was probably a reminder to herself that there were boundaries that she should never

cross.

"Grandma, I'm really fine.” Tia assured Mrs. Wallace Sr., as she could not hide the truth from her anymore.

"Besides, Ms. Jean is really nice, and she is also a good match for him.
