Mr. Hilgard was already very mad at Mrs. Hilgard for running away from home. He planned to come here and reason with her.

'How could she leave me at home alone! Didn't she know that I'm not doing well these days? If it weren't for the family chef, I would have starved tonight!'

When he saw how happy they were, Mr. Hilgard's smoldering anger was instantly ignited.

'How dare they invite this stupid Arthur to dinner behind my back and leave me at home sulking alone! And they look... So happy!'

"Dad..." Jean murmured in a moment of surprise, completely caught off guard.

Mr. Hilgard snorted. However, before he could say anything, Mrs. Hilgard ran over and stood in front of Jean. She stared him right in the eye and asked, "What are you doing here?"

Mr. Hilgard almost lost it when he heard her harsh tone.

He was going to storm out, but Mrs. Hilgard's attitude pissed him off even more. He stepped into the house and said coldly, "What am I doing here? This is my daughter's house. You are here right now. Why can't I be here? "

Mrs. Hilgard was shocked by his strange action.

She thought that Mr. Hilgard must be furious and would leave right this second. Who would have thought that he just walked in? This was nothing like what he would usually do.

Seeing that, Arthur stood up and greeted Mr. Hilgard with a smile, "Mr. Hilgard, I'm Arthur. Nice meeting you."

Mr. Hilgard ignored him, walked to the table, and sat down.

He just had dinner and was not hungry at all. But he just couldn't bear the idea of them having fun without him, especially not after seeing the table of delicious food.
