Chapter 1816 An Awkward Meal

When I reached home, I saw a few luxurious cars parked at the gate. I assumed they belonged to Nathaniel’s guests, so I didn’t pay much attention to them.

However, I soon learned that it was a mistake. The moment I entered the place, I saw Cameron and Zachary sitting there.

“Mom? Dad? What are you doing here?”

I had just placed the bags aside when I heard John saying, “Emma and I are here, too.”

I couldn’t make heads or tails of what was going on and had to ask for help by signaling John.

John wasn’t free to say anything, but he discreetly gestured for me to look in the direction of the staircase.

I followed his line of sight and saw Nathaniel walking down the stairs in a casual outfit. As he did so, he said, “I asked everyone to come over because I know that you miss hanging out with your family. Did I guess right?”
