Miranda was all set to say something, but the words got stuck in her throat.

It felt like an emotion had suddenly exploded within her, spreading through her body like wildfire.

She froze for a moment, unsure of what to say next.

"Wifey." he uttered, his voice so filled with joy that it somehow managed to sound

soft and tender. "I've missed you so much."

Miranda frowned.

"What are you calling me that for?"

Elian deliberately repeated with a grin, “Wifey, wifey, wifey."

Miranda was left speechless.

Meanwhile, Jasper, who had been munching on peanuts, was so stunned he stopped mid-bite.

He couldn't help nudging the person next to him.

"Do you know this guy?"

The person next to him replied, "Isn't that Mr. Ashcroft?"
