“Lucian, you look great, you seem to have gotten younger.”
Lucian was all smiles.
“Daughters are still the best, both sentences sound nice. Andie, your birthday is coming soon, there’s a big surprise waiting for you at home. Excited or not?”
He raised his hand to shield the mother and daughter from the crowd, with a smile forming fine lines at the corners of his eyes.
“Birthday party?”
J
Scarlett nodded, with a hint of resignation in her eyes.
“Lucian insisted on arranging it for you, saying that you’ve been abroad for too long and that people in the country should know that you are also a daughter of the Hodgson family.”
Andrea was slightly surprised, Lucian treated her like a queen, but she went behind his back with her brother…
If Lucian found out, he would definitely be disappointed.
Lucian saw that Andrea didn’t look right, so he quickly said, What’s wrong?
“Let’s not talk about that for now, don’t burden the kids. By the way, Andie, why didn’t your brother come back with you?”
“It’s your birthday soon, and then there’s the engagement. As your brother, I should help you with the arrangements.”

“He…”
Andrea’s eyes flickered for a moment.
“He’s wrapping up a project overseas, so he won’t be back for a while.”
Scarlett let out a sigh.
“Roderick was working too hard.”
Lucian didn’t think so.
“Don’t feel sorry for him, he’s at the age of exploring, young people need to gain more experience.”
Scarlett glanced at her daughter, suddenly looking mysterious.
“Andie, it’s a coincidence, I heard that the Shillingford family’s young master also returned to the country today, maybe you guys were on the same flight back.”
The Shillingford family?
Was it a coincidence that Quinn’s last name is also Shillingford?
Oh, Quinn!
“Mom, Lucian, let me introduce a friend to you who went back to his country. He took care of us all the way…”
Turning around, Quinn found nothing behind him, he didn’t know when he disappeared.
Scarlett looked around nervously.
“Andie, where are your friends?”
Andrea turned around.

“Maybe had some things to do, so left first.”
Lucian grabbed the suitcase with one hand and put his arm around Scarlett’s shoulder.
“Let’s not stand here like idiots. Andie must be exhausted from the flight. Come on, let’s go to your favorite Cantonese restaurant.”
The sun was setting, Andrea was curled up on the cashmere blanket by the bedroom window, lost in thought as she gazed outside.
The scene in front of her no longer matched the image in her memory, many places had changed so much that she couldn’t recognize them.
“Andie!”
Scarlett walked in.
“What a coincidence! Mrs. Shillingford just called and said the Shillingford family’s son was indeed on the same flight as you! They want to invite us to Skyview Restaurant tonight to meet up, saying it’s a chance for you young people to get acquainted.”
Andrea’s eyelashes fluttered lightly.
“Mom, isn’t it too rushed? I just…”
Before finishing her sentence, Scarlett had already opened the door to the closet.
“This was the first official meeting between you and your fiance!”
She took out a champagne–colored satin dress, with scattered diamonds on the neckline shimmering under the lights.
“Just wear this one, it suits you and makes you look elegant.”

“Andie, the Shillingford family was a prestigious family. I heard that the young master of the Shillingford family was always calm and thoughtful since he was young. You two must get along well.”
When Andrea walked into the restaurant booth with Scarlett, the light from the crystal chandelier was shining on the man sitting across the round table.
