Chad sent his sister off and said to Hansen, "Merry Christmas, Hansen."

Only moments ago, Hansen had been suspicious of Chad's intentions towards his daughter, and had complained several times in the car to his butler, "Did you see how Chad was holding my daughter's hand? I could cut it off." The butler replied, "He's Molly's brother."

Hansen retorted, "He touched my daughter's face!"

The butler explained, "He was just helping Miss with her clothes."

All in all, Hansen had a rather unfavorable impression of Chad. However, when Chad put his daughter back in the car and offered him polite wishes, Hansen suddenly found Chad to be very well-mannered with a stable job and a bright future. His attitude became friendly again, "Merry Christmas, Chad. Thanks for your help."

"No problem, it's my pleasure." Chad advised his sister, "Don't go out late at night anymore."

Molly nodded at his words.

After the Cedillos drove away, he turned back and shared the burger that his sister had brought with his teammates.

On the way home, Hansen asked his daughter, "Molly, do you have a boyfriend at school?"

Molly was curious and asked, "No, why would you ask that?"

Hansen was satisfied, "Don't look for a boyfriend at school. Those people are not worthy of you."

Perhaps in Hansen's mind, even a prince was not good enough for his daughter.

This was Mia's first Christmas with the Cedillos. She only had her parents at home, and she inevitably felt a bit homesick. Andre had proposed inviting the Irvins to spend Christmas with them, but they had declined, planning to go abroad to accompany their son. Normally, the house was bustling and noisy, but on Christmas Eve, everyone missed their own families.
