“Huh?” Kathleen was surprised at the suggestion. She then remembered how Samuel looked just before she left.

At times when she spoke to him gently, he would break into a smile.

Otherwise, Samuel hardly smiled on normal days.

Kathleen was afraid that the family would be put off by Samuel’s poker face.

Federick smiled. “Just ask him to come in.”

Kathleen looked rather abashed. “All right then.”

By the time she got downstairs, Samuel had already reached the entrance of the villa.

“Mrs. Evans asks you to join us for dinner since you’re here,” said Kathleen. Then, she watched him apprehensively and added, “That is if you want to come up.”

Samuel looked at his timid wife and said coolly, “Why do I get this feeling that you don’t want me to join you?”

Kathleen shrugged as she replied, “It’s not that. You never introduce your friends to me, but you know all my friends. It doesn’t seem fair.”

Samuel was at a loss for words.

Kathleen looked at him. “So, are you coming up?”

Samuel got down from the car, which indicated that he had accepted the invitation.

Kathleen brought him upstairs, and they entered the Evans residence together.

The Evans family lived in a mansion.

Lily was a little hesitant when she saw Samuel.

“This is Mrs. Evans, my old neighbor who also watched me grow up. Mrs. Evans, this is my… husband.” Kathleen made the necessary introductions.

She sounded reluctant to address Samuel as her husband.

Samuel’s expression turned cold.

“Mr. Macari, how do you do?” Lily greeted Samuel politely.

“Mrs. Evans, there’s no need to be so formal. Since you’re Kate’s elder who watched her grow up, you are also my elder.” Samuel sounded polite but indifferent and distant.

Lily smiled. “Mr. Macari, please take a seat.”

Samuel nodded.

Just then, Federick walked out, carrying Madeline.

Madeline was a very adorable girl, and she looked cherubic.

She just did not talk much and hardly made eye contact with anyone.

“Madeline, say hello to Mr. Macari.” Federick guided Madeline patiently.
