When it was almost the weekend, the Old Riley hoped to have a family gathering and invited Emma.
Usually, the Riley family gathered, but Emma had divorced Baron, so she never joined them.
This time, however, the Old Riley deliberately invited her. Emma didn't know the reason.
After arriving at the Riley manor, Sophia and Emma heard laughter from the living room. They exchanged looks in confusion.
When they entered, the Old Riley still smiled. "Here you came. Baron, look who she is."
Baron went over with Sophia and Emma. When his gaze fell on a woman, who didn't seem to have been aged by time, he recalled something.
"Is that you, Lily?"
Emma also walked to the woman. "Lily. It's really you, Lily!"
Sophia saw a young man smiling gently at her while sitting next to the woman, who was called Lily by her parents-in-law.
"Why are you here, Rashad?" she asked.
Rashad stood up. "It's been a long time, Sophia."
Drake watched him walk to Sophia.
'Rashad?' Drake had heard about "Rashad" before and finally met him in person.
Much to his surprise, the man looked slightly similar to him.
Drake also recalled that he seemed to have met the woman called Lily by his parents before but couldn't remember where or when.
In confusion, the Old Riley asked, "Sophia, do you know Rashad?"
Sophia was excited. Earlier, she heard Rashad would come to Sealand and wanted to pick him up. Much to her surprise, Rashad had shown up.
Nodding, she answered, "Right. Rashad is my senior in high school. He's an excellent man. Grandpa, why is he here?"
Not to mention Sophia, others were also puzzled.
Aria had no idea what was going on.
Baron asked the woman, "Lily, where have you been over these years?"
The Old Riley looked at her and asked, "Lily, just tell them."
Lily Witt looked upset. "Baron, after your brother passed away, I was too frustrated, so I ran away from Riley Manor and didn't return in the past decades."
"After I left, I found myself pregnant. I gave birth to my son, Rashad. I've never considered returning here in the past years. Once I come back, I'll think about your brother. You know how much we loved each other before."
Baron nodded. He envied his brother and sister-in-law in the past, for they loved each other deeply.
Unfortunately, his brother passed away in an accident.
"Now my son has grown up. I can't hide him from you selfishly. That's why I brought him back to the Riley family."
