The Coldest Man in the Room Melted Only for Me novel Chapter 589

"Okay."

The butler hurried in from the entrance and reported to Eleanor, "Lady Eleanor, the front gate called. Mr. and Mrs. Spencer have arrived."

Riley's hand froze halfway to a piece of fruit.

Eleanor looked surprised. She had been good friends with Daphne's mother, but she wasn't particularly close to Victor and Daphne. While they would visit for her birthday and the New Year, they had no reason to stop by unannounced on a random afternoon.

"Quickly, invite them in."

"Right away." The butler rushed back out. Moments later, he led the couple into the grand living room.

The moment Daphne stepped inside, her eyes locked onto Riley, and they instantly welled with tears.

Victor gently squeezed Daphne's hand, leaning in to whisper so only she could hear, "Don't scare the girl. Let's get the DNA sample first. We'll tell her once we have the results."

Daphne blinked away the moisture and gave a soft nod. "Okay."

The couple walked over and greeted Eleanor, claiming they had come specifically to visit her.

Riley stood up and offered a flawless, polite greeting. "Mr. Spencer. Mrs. Spencer."

Victor gave a slight nod, his gaze unusually tender as he looked at Riley.

Daphne stared at Riley, her heart aching with a devastating intensity.

Thinking of her lost daughter suffering for over twenty years felt like a knife twisting in her chest. Hearing Riley's polite, distant 'Mrs. Spencer' was the final straw. Her tears broke free, streaming silently down her face.

Seeing Daphne suddenly cry left Riley completely flustered. "Mrs. Spencer, are you okay?"
