Lizetta tugged slightly at the corner of her lips, "Mrs. Madden, let's put dinner aside for now. Shouldn't you first explain why Andrea is here?"

Eartha faced the question without a hint of displeasure. Instead, she gently took Lizetta's hand and spoke softly, "Well, I was planning to discuss this during dinner, but you've brought it up first. Liz, your impatience is just like your mother's when she was alive." A wistful expression crossed Eartha's face as she patted Lizetta's hand. "Back to the matter at hand. Andrea was indeed sent abroad by your father and me, but she ended up offending a noble girl at school, which led to severe bullying. She was driven to desperation and nearly got hit by a car on the streets. Fortunately, my sister-in-law happened to save her. Andrea has been watched over by my sister-in-law since she was young, and seeing her in such a state, she couldn't bear to leave her overseas. She contacted your father and me, and it was we who asked my sister-in-law to bring Andrea back home."

Lizetta raised an eyebrow, "When did all this happen? So my father agreed to this as well?"

"Liz, I agreed to it."

At that moment, a voice came from the doorway. Lizetta and the others turned to see a middle-aged man entering-it was Conrad. His temples showed signs of grey, yet his demeanor remained refined and composed, hinting at regular exercise with a physique that might cause young women to secretly swoon over the charming 'uncle' type.
