Luke's gaze darkened when he heard Susan's ambiguous tone.

Susan felt the strong and angry aura from Luke and took an instinctive small step backward. Only then did she realize that she was afraid of Luke.

Luke quirked his lips. From Susan's ambiguous tone and harsh appearance, Luke knew that Louis must have gotten an earful moments ago. “We'll be going back first."

“Drive safe, Brother," Yuri quickly said.

After Luke and Luca left with their children, Susan turned to glare at Yuri with displeasure. “Even you're so ready to chummy up to him, huh?"

“Mother, I'm not..." Yuri defended. She did not understand how her act of common courtesy had become chumming up to Luke in her mother's eyes.

After all, an act was only believable when one kept it up.

“Cut the attitude in front of children, lest they take after your bad example." Susan harrumphed. She did not like it when people tried to get in Luke's good graces.

Yuri listened exasperatedly to Susan, unable to defend herself.

Luke, Luca, and the children took the lift to the lobby on the first floor and happened to stumble into Louis who had just finished paying.

“You're leaving already, Brother?" Louis greeted Luke first.

“Yeah." Luke saw the receipt still in Louis' hand and asked, “Did you just pay?"

“Yeah. I only paid the deposit before, so I came to pay the outstanding amount once the banquet ended." Louis smiled. Despite how harsh Susan's words were, Louis harbored no resentment toward Luke.

“Are you free tomorrow?" Luke asked.

“I am. Why?" Louis assumed that Luke needed his help with something.

“Could you come over to T Corporation?" Luke asked.

“Sure. I'll arrive around 10, then. My mother and Yuri are still upstairs, so I'll be going first." Louis put the bill away. Susan's birthday celebration cost him a lot of money, but he did not dare to tell Susan so.
