Edward had already booked the hotel in advance. 

When the group arrived at the hotel entrance, as expected, he was scolded again by his mother and father.

“You little rascal. You didn’t even bother to pick us up! Instead, you ran off here to relax! You’re truly the epitome of laziness!” barked Nadine. 

Edward was on the verge of tears. “It’s not that I had too much free time. It’s just that Neera insisted on picking you up. I rushed over as soon as I finished my work.” 

Nadine raised her hand to scare him. “You little rascal, still daring to talk back to us? You’ve grown a backbone, huh?” 

Edward ducked his head to avoid the confrontation, his face full of helplessness. “Mom, why have you become so fierce while I was away? Can Dad really handle you?” 

Jeremiah glanced at him. “Don’t drag me into this. Just listen to your mom and stop talking nonsense!” 

Neera couldn’t help but laugh as she helped Mariah out of the car. Then, she explained the situation. “Uncle Jeremiah, Aunt Nadine, it was me who asked him to wait here. He has been busy these past few days. He deserves some rest.” 

At that moment, Edward heaved a sigh toward the sky. “Having a sister is truly wonderful. From now on, Neera is the closest person to me.” 

Nadine poked him on the forehead. “Why, you…”

Neera settled them first, then asked, “By the way, since the Park family is planning to expand in Kingsview, has the residence issue been solved yet, Edward?” 

Edward reassured, “Don’t worry, everything has been arranged. It’s too late now, so let’s make do here for the night. Once we’re rested in the morning, we’ll return to the mansion.” 

Neera nodded gently, then spent some time chatting with her grandparents. 

The elderly, worn out by the long journey of flight, were utterly exhausted due to their advanced age. 

At that moment, Neera decided not to disturb them any further, allowing them to rest early. She told them she would come back to pick them up the next day, and then she left with Jean. 

Edward went down with them. 

At the entrance, he glanced sideways at Neera, his eyes filled with tenderness. “I thought everything you’ve endured in the Garcia family was already heartbreaking enough. I didn’t expect there to be so much of your past that we didn’t know about. Why didn’t you tell us before?”

Faced with his sudden question, Neera was first taken aback. Then, she shook her head and laughed helplessly. “What’s the use of talking about it? It would only bring you unnecessary sorrow. Besides, those past events don’t matter to me anymore. I didn’t find them particularly hard or bitter. In fact, I’m somewhat grateful for that period of time. If it weren’t for that, I wouldn’t have experienced the warmth Aunt Adriana showed me. My aunt has shown me tremendous kindness. It’s because of her that I’ve come to understand what family love is. This feeling, contrasted and highlighted by the past, has become even more precious. This includes my encounters with my maternal grandparents and my reunion with the Park family, all of which have brought me warmth. What I cherish now is you all. As for the rest, I don’t care about anything else.” 

Hearing her say that, Edward slowly let out a laugh. “As long as you’ve moved on, that’s all that matters.” 

At that moment, the valet drove the car over. Jean nodded slightly toward Edward as a sign of respect. “We’ll be going first.” 

Edward nodded. “See you tomorrow morning.” 

When Jean and Neera returned home, Wrenn was still awake, nestled on the couch watching the television. 

Hearing their return, she covered her mouth and yawned. “You’re back. How did it go? Is everything settled with the Park family?” 

Neera said, “They’re staying in the hotel for now. The mansion is already prepared. They’ll move in first thing tomorrow morning.” 

Wrenn nodded, then said with concern, “Neera, I’ve made you some royal jelly. Have a bowl before you go up to rest.” 

Neera smiled. “All right.” 

Beside her, Jean asked leisurely, “Mom, what about mine?” 

Wrenn paused for a moment. “I didn’t prepare more portions for you. Although, it doesn’t matter if you consume it or not, right?” 

Jean was speechless. 

Seeing how well his own mother was treating Neera, he couldn’t help but doubt if he was really her biological child. 

Neera accepted the royal jelly from the housekeepers. Looking at Jean’s expression, she couldn’t help but find it amusing. “Would you like to have some, too?” 

Before Jean could even speak, Wrenn took the initiative. “Don’t mind him. Neera, you should drink up. You’re weak right now, and you’ve lost so much weight, you need to take good care of yourself.” 

Once again, Jean was at a loss for words. 

Neera kept her head down and laughed non-stop. 

Meanwhile, at the Meyer residence, Nicole had been closely following the online trends. 

Seeing that Neera had achieved a one-sided victory, she had been sulking. 

When she found out that Neera was actually the heiress of the Park family, her terrible mood reached its peak.

At dinner time, George handed an invitation to Leopold. “This is an invitation to the Park family’s company event in two days. I’ve already given Old Mr. Park a heads-up privately. I haven’t been feeling well lately and don’t really want to move around, so you can go in my place.” 

Leopold had always listened to his grandfather. He took it immediately, nodded, and said, “Okay.” 

Upon hearing that, Nicole, who had been listless, perked up instantly. “The Park family? The one who’s planning to expand in Kingsview?” 

George grunted in agreement. “Apart from them, no other Park family could put on such a grand show. They must have invited a lot of people, all prominent figures from Kingsview, to the company event. Our Meyer family has had some dealings and collaborations with the Park family in the past, though not very deep-rooted. The fact that the Park family has extended an invitation to us shows they hold us in high regard.” 

Upon hearing that, Nicole became somewhat displeased. “Grandfather, you’re mistaken. What do you mean by ‘they hold us in high regard?’ Our family is a well-respected one in Kingsview. It’s only right for the Park family to invite us. If we, the Meyer family, attend, it’s us holding them in high regard!”
