Chapter 492 Zeph Knight's Invitation

"Harleen!" Billy called out with a smile.

Shortly after, the chicken soup was ready, and Billy sat down at the dining table. Harleen joined him, saying, "Honey, take it slow, don't burn yourself."

"Mama, Dad isn't a child, why are you worrying so much? You'll spoil him." Tasha said as she played with her toys, looking up.

"Little one, play with your toys." Harleen teased.

Fletcher and his wife chuckled.

"Billy, are you free the day after tomorrow at noon?" Fletcher asked.

"I don't have any plans at the moment. Why, is something going on?" Billy asked with a slight pause, smiling.

"My father is hosting a family gathering the day after tomorrow at noon. He specifically asked about your availability, so if you're free..." Fletcher began to explain.

"Billy, don't listen to your dad!" Sharon interjected, not pleased. "They're not inviting Billy for a meal, they just want to use Billy's status!"

"Dad, Mom, what's going on?" Harleen asked, looking a bit puzzled.

"Beatrice has a new boyfriend, apparently someone from the capital who just returned from studying abroad. His family of three is currently touring Ozin, and your grandfather plans to invite them to dinner. He specifically asked if Billy was in Ozin, hoping Billy would attend and show them some courtesy." Sharon explained.

"Dad, let's forget it," Harleen said to Fletcher. "Billy has just returned to Ozin and must have many official matters to attend to. Such a gathering wouldn't serve any purpose, so there's no need for him to go." "Alright, I'll let your grandfather know tomorrow that Billy is not in Ozin." Fletcher replied after some consideration.
