Chapter 189 When Did You Come Back?

Zachary had two younger brothers and a younger sister.

From the oldest to youngest, they were Zavier Solace, Zaiden Solace, and Zarina Solace.

Zarina immigrated to Archulea shortly after she got married, and she rarely returned to the country.

Zavier and Zaiden assisted Zachary in handling the affairs of Solace Corporation. Until now, they still held important positions in Solace Corporation.

Zavier had three sons and a daughter.

Zavier’s eldest son would be turning forty in two years, and Zavier’s second kid, who was also his only daughter, was a few years older than Layla. Zavier’s thirdborn son was about the same age as Layla, while his youngest son just graduated from university. Except for the youngest one, the others were all married.

On the other hand, Zaiden only had one son who was in his early 30s. The son was a few months older than Layla.

When Christopher and Yuliana arrived, it was not time for dinner yet. Zavier and Zaiden played chess with Zachary while drinking coffee. Meanwhile, Zavier’s wife, Isabella Solace, and Zaiden’s wife, Wendy Solace, chatted with Winnie. The younger generations were also with their own group, talking and laughing.

On New Year’s Eve, the atmosphere at the Solace residence was very festive. The house was decorated for the occasion, and the courtyard was filled with the sound of children chasing each other and playing around. From time to time, firecrackers would sound.

When Yuliana and Christopher got out of the car, Zofia ran over with a few children about her age. They were wearing jackets with vibrant colors, their faces red from running and their hair wet with sweat.

“Hello, Uncle Chris and Aunt Yuliana! Happy new year!”

Zofia didn’t rush into Yuliana’s arms this time. Instead, she went up to hug Christopher’s thigh, raised her head, and looked at him while giggling. The other children gathered around Christopher and called him “Uncle Chris” enthusiastically.

Seeing this, Yuliana stepped back instinctively.
