Ethan was just on his way to fetch some water when he opened the front door.

"Whoa, Ethan, what are you doing here?" Angelina, standing at the door with a little boy in her arms and Georgia trailing behind her, sounded genuinely surprised.

As Angelina entered, she made a show of concern for Ethan.

Ethan had no choice but to move aside, making room for them. Georgia, following behind Angelina, had a smirk plastered on her face, eyeing Ethan like he was the latest gossip. "Mr. Ethan, that bruised look suits you quite well."
