William glanced at Felix. “When have I ever bullied him? Why don’t you ask him?”
Felix’s strong survival instinct kicked in as he listened to William’s words.
He immediately shook his head. “No. Old Mr. Lombard likes me the most, so why would he bully me? He never has!”
“That’s more like it. By the way, when are your uncle Tristan and Sophie coming back?” The wedding is only a few months away. Shouldn’t they return and start preparing for it? I want to help, but they don’t like it if I meddle in their business.
“Grandpa, don’t worry. Uncle Tristan knows what he’s doing. He loves Sophie so much, so he wouldn’t skimp on their wedding.” Besides, even if he isn’t in the country, Uncle Tristan has been closely following the progress of the wedding preparations.
“All right. You must be tired from your trip to Fandar. Go back and take a few days to rest. Don’t busy yourself with work as soon as you come back. One’s health is one’s most important asset. What good would it do to swamp yourself with work all the time?
“All right. I got it, Grandpa.” Ysabelle was exceptionally obedient that day as she didn’t want to worry anyone.
“I should take my leave now. My parents are also worried about me since I haven’t been home for such a long time.”
That was even more so after something as significant as that happened to him.
“Okay. You should go back now.” William could fathom how Felix’s parents must felt. Instead of going back to his own home upon returning to the country, Felix came here first. What else can I say to that?
“I’ll see you off.” Ysabelle swiftly stood up from the couch.
Felix had sent her home when he should’ve gone back to his own house first.
After all, his parents were worried sick about him.
William could only sigh, looking at their retreating figures from behind.
“Dad, Felix is actually not a bad guy. You’ve watched him grow up, too, so shouldn’t you feel at ease to let him be with Ysabelle?”
“Yes. That’s his only virtue. All I hope now is for Ysabelle to be happy. It’s fine as long as he doesn’t mistreat her.”
“Don’t worry. We’re all here, so who would dare to bully Ysabelle?” Everyone in the family doted on Ysabelle, after all.
Ysabelle was still reluctant to part ways with Felix even when they got outside. “Off you go. Call me when you get home.”
“Okay. I’ll call you as soon as I’m home. Don’t worry. Rest at home for a couple of days. You don’t need to return to work in such a rush.”
“I got it. Stop nagging me.”
“By the way, Sean and the others invited us for dinner tonight. I’ll pick you up later.”
Felix had nearly escaped death. The moment he stepped out of the plane, Sean contacted him.
“Okay. I’ll wait for you at home.” Ysabelle was overjoyed at the thought that they could meet again that night..
Felix hugged her.
After sending Felix off, Ysabelle returned to the house to unpack her luggage. She no longer regarded the current circumstances where the number of her followers dropped as a big deal.
At night, everyone gathered at Blossom Garden to have their dinner without Tristan and Sophie.
“When will Mr. Tristan and Sophie come back? It feels incomplete without them.”
“They’ll be back soon. With Mr. Tristan on the case, the issues should be resolved in no time.”
“You have a point.”
“So, have you two made up now?” After such a drama, everyone reckoned Felix and Ysabelle must’ve reconciled.
“Yes. You all saw the news, didn’t you?” Ysabelle wrapped her arms around Felix’s with a contented expression on her face.
