Glenn had recovered from his illness. When he heard about Zebulon’s stunt, he frowned. “Tell him to come see me when he has time.”

Within two hours, Zebulon arrived in a hurry. “Glenn, it’s great that you’re okay. But why do you look so pale? Are you sure you’re fully recovered?

“Why don’t you take a few more days off? I can handle things for you: Zebulon perched on the edge of the dining table as soon as he entered, expressing concern with genuine sincerity in his eyes.

Glenn had mixed feelings about his nephew. He’d raised Zebulon, but he was disappointed by how impulsive Zebulon had become after reconnecting with his birth parents.

Glenn sighed, the weariness of his illness seeping into his voice, “Zebulon, you’re so impulsive. When will you learn to think before you act?”

“I wasn’t being impulsive. I was just worried about you,” Zebulon grumbled, defending himself.

Glenn just shook his head and motioned for him to sit and eat.

As soon as Zebulon sat down, he noticed the little girl eating happily across from him. He suddenly felt a sharp sensation in his ear. “Glenn, are you developing an heir or a secret agent? She almost took me out with that one move?

Glenn shot him a sideways glance. “Quinlyn is a guest here, and she’s involved in the legislative process. Show some respect”

Zebulon paused, thinking he’d misheard. “This little kid is involved in the legislative process? No way. And she should show some respect to me, he thought.

He was so angry that he had no appetite. He could only watch as Quinlyn ate most of the food.

He only felt hungry after he left the table, which made him even angrier.

After the meal, the three of them were drinking coffee in the living room. Zebulon noticed that his uncle was acting a lot warmer toward Quinlyn.

“Quinlyn, try this cup of coffee. Can you guess which jar the beans came from?” Glenn asked.

After hearing Quinlyn’s answer, he replied, “That’s right. Your taste buds are pretty amazing. Try this cup; it should be even smoother.” He handed her another cup.
