Soon, the dishes were ready.
The four sat at the table.
"Wow, they smell so good!"
Caroline smelled the dishes and exclaimed cheerfully.
The table was full of home-cooked delicacies. They looked nice and were much cleaner than those from the restaurants.
Summer tittered, "Marcel made them for you."
Leo and Caroline looked at Marcel in surprise. They never knew Marcel was such an excellent cook.
Caroline finally believed Marcel had changed. She beamed, "I didn't know you were such a good cook."
Marcel said calmly, "My parents hadn't paid enough attention to me when I was a kid, so I had to cook for myself every day."
"That's said."
Caroline sighed pitifully, yet her face soon lit up. "The Hudson family has collapsed now. No one could hurt you again."
The past of the Hudson family wasn't a good memory for either Summer or Marcel, so they didn't respond to what Caroline had said.
Soon, Summer asked Caroline, "I thought you were busy with work. How'd you have the time to come to Hopkins Metropolis?"
"I'm here for work, actually. The L Group has set up a branch in Hopkins Metropolis. I applied for a position here."
Caroline added, "I may stay for a while here this time."
"That's a good thing."
Summer and Caroline started to chat.
There was a hint of gloom in Marcel's eyes when he heard Caroline would stay for a long time.
Leo had captured all the changes on Marcel's face and narrowed his eyes.
"Caroline, you're here at perfect timing. My family will be here later, and they will bring their children. I can introduce you to them."
Summer said with a smile.
"Your family?"
Leo and Caroline paused and asked in confusion.
A trace of repulsion flashed across Caroline's eyes.
She surely understood what Summer meant.
She was trying to play matchmaker for Caroline!
Caroline forced a smile and replied, "Mom, I don't need a boyfriend."
The person she liked was right next to her.
However, all Leo noticed was Marcel's faint smile when Summer mentioned her family.
Dingdong!
Just by then, someone knocked on the door.
Summer put down her chopsticks. "I'll go take the door."
As soon as she opened it, Leo saw two men and two women coming in.
There was only a young man and a woman among them. Other people might be the same age as Summer, or older.
"Let me introduce them to you... This is my big brother, my second sister, and their children."
"This is my son, Marcel. Caroline is my daughter, and this is Caroline's daughter, Le..."
Before Summer finished introducing Leo, her second sister Caitlin Sutton interrupted her impatiently.
"Summer, are you playing dumb with us? Do you really think that we are here to be your guest? Where's the money? We'll leave as soon as you give it to us."
Caitlin hadn't even greeted Summer before he asked her for money, which made Summer stunned.
Leo looked at Summer in surprise.
Summer's maiden name wasn't Hudson. Hudson was the name she adopted when she married.
Her maiden name was Sutton, so she was once Summer Sutton.
