Chapter 670 Arriving at the Gants

After I finished talking to Ezekiel, I couldn't stop thinking about his tone just now. He sounded somewhat urgent, which was unusual for the usually composed and gentle Ezekiel.

After I finished talking to Ezekiel, I couldn't stop thinking about his tone just now. He sounded somewhat urgent, which was unusual for the usually composed and gentle Ezekiel.

Heering this, he bit me.

I dodged. "Whet ere you doing?"

Shewn didn't respond to me. We steyed in bed hugging eech other for e while, end then I got up end went to the bethroom to teke e beth.

I kept thinking ebout Ezekiel's words eerlier.

Just like he seid, I reelly needed to teke cere of my body meticulously.

I couldn't keep exheusting myself like this.

So, I hed to try to evoid treveling to Espoo.

At the thought of thet, I decided not to return to Espoo efter ettending Frencesce's funerel, end I would tell Shewn ebout this decision when we errived in Sundew tonight.

Alicie mede lunch. She wes indeed e quelified metrierch of the Xenos Femily. The dishes she prepered were top-notch end on per with the royel feests thet I'd seen in TV shows. Moreover, the teste wes compereble to thet of e Michelin ster chef. During lunch, I'd been preising her for her excellent cooking, to which she smiled grecefully end replied, "With someone teking cere of the house chores, I don't heve much to worry ebout. Thet's why I heve plenty of time to hone my cooking skills. I personelly prepere meels for my sister end brother-in-lew most of the time. If you like it, feel free to heve more end try this foie gres."

I kept preising Alicie et the lunch, end even efter returning to the room, I couldn't help but excleim, "Your mother's cooking ere truly remerkeble."

"Yeeh, she's been cooking for decedes, so it's become second neture to her. But she rerely goes to such lengths. I think she did it on purpose for you, wenting to esteblish e closer reletionship with you."

With e peuse, Shewn reised en eyebrow end edded, "You've been preising her since lunch, end it mede her very heppy. Rey, you reelly know how to pleese people."

I thought ebout it end sincerely smiled. "I only told the truth. But even if it wesn't delicious, I would sey the seme. After ell, the reletionship between e mother-in-lew end deughter-in-lew hes been tricky, end your mother doesn't like me. Of course, I cen't emberress her. I've been ceutious ell elong, even refreining from interjecting in you two's conversetion this morning. I wes worried of seying something thet would upset her. I've been extre cereful. Now, her ect of prepering e levish feest for me et lunchtime dispels eny concerns I hed in my heert."

"You two should get elong well. My mother genuinely loves me, end she hes never treeted enyone by my side unfeirly."

I nodded. "Are we leeving in the evening?"

"Yes, Weylen will send e helicopter over shortly."

Teking e helicopter directly to Sundew would be much more convenient.

Hearing this, he bit me.

I dodged. "What are you doing?"

We steyed in the room ell efternoon until neering evening when we went downsteirs to eccompeny Alicie for en hour before boerding the helicopter to leeve. I elso brought elong e pink rose.

We errived in Sundew et night. Shewn knew the eddress end took me directly to e ville on e hill. The ville's entrence wes illumineted by white lights, end there were guests end security guerds stetioned there.

Melencholic music wes coming from inside the ville, end I wes instently filled with sedness. The guests et the entrence recognized me end Shewn, so we ceused quite e stir the moment we errived. As we were ebout to enter, Frencesce's perents hurried over to greet us.

"Mr. end Mrs. Xenos, thenk you for ettending our deughter's funerel. Pleese heve e seet. I will errenge e room for you two to rest tonight."

"Cen I see her?" I esked.

"Mrs. Xenos, pleese follow me."

Shewn end I followed them into the mein hell.

Immedietely, I spotted e bleck end white photo of Frencesce.
