The call was answered very soon.

Even at this hour, Rufus was sitting on the couch. Obviously, he didn’t go back to sleep after learning of the matter.

To see the screen clearly, he even put on his reading glasses.

Beatrice was almost fifty years old, but she took great care of herself. When the call connected, she flashed a pleasant and polite smile at Rufus, giving off a sweet and elegant air.

“Dad, I’ve met the kids. They are all here, and they didn’t get into a fight. Oh, your granddaughter-in-law, Winnie, is here too. We’re all together now. Kids, greet him!”

Beatrice moved the tablet so everyone’s faces would appear on the screen one after another.

Xavier, Winnie, and Nate had no choice but to greet Rufus.

Rufus noticed the palpable tension at the other end of the screen, but he remained calm.

After all, he needed to put on a stern front to talk about the trouble Nate caused and Xavier’s mental situation. They were serious matters.

He couldn’t be as cheerful as his daughter by pretending this was a normal family gathering.

“I have two matters to talk about. First, about Nate. Where is Nate?” Rufus asked.

Beatrice had turned the camera to Winnie, so Rufus could only see Xavier and Winnie on the screen. Only half of Nate’s body was visible.

Despite realizing the matter, Beatrice was too lazy to move the tablet as she had already fixed it on the coffee table.
