Chapter 1634: Why The Salute

After the meal, the whole family gathered in the tea room on the second floor. Anderson was downstairs, engrossed in watching TV and playing games. Cecelia set the tea table, filling it with a complete set of tea brewing tools.

"The new tea hasn't arrived yet, so this is the most fragrant aged Pu'er," Cecelia said, using the first pot of brewed tea to warm the cups, then pouring a cup for everyone from the second pot.

Ralph took the teacup, took a sip, and showed a satisfied expression. Luther tasted it as well.

"Mom, your tea brewing skills are amazing, it reminds me of grandma. She always loved making tea, it was her way of nurturing her health," he said.

When Stephanie was mentioned, Luther's eyes dimmed. Cecelia's hand stiffened a little. Stephanie had been killed by Charlotte. They had all been deceived by Charlotte for all these years. Stephanie, Xia Zhenhai, they all met their untimely demise. The hard-won reunion was built upon their sacrifices.

Seeing the atmosphere become stagnant, Joyce quickly tried to lighten the mood. "Let's not bring up the past," she said.

Ralph was candid. "Initially, in our eagerness to find our kin, we lowered our guard. The mistake we made, we should face it head-on, no need to shy away."

Luther put down his teacup. "If grandma knew, she would be content knowing her wishes were fulfilled. I mean no offense, everyone, don't take it to heart."

"Joyce, you haven't visited grandfather's grave yet. Tomorrow, I'll take you there to pay respects. Luther, you should come too. And bring Anderson," Cecelia proposed. "At last, everything has settled down. I can finally face the old man."

Joyce nodded gently.

"Alright, let's not talk about this. You're pregnant with twins, that's wonderful news. You must take good care of yourself from now on, be careful in everything you do," Cecelia advised. "I've been simmering bird's nest soup, I'll bring you some later."

"Mom, I can't eat anymore," Joyce said, subconsciously stroking her stomach.

Ralph smiled. "I heard from Nian Zhen, it's a pair of boys?"

Joyce blushed a little, "Yeah. We did a maternal blood test."

"The doctor said the accuracy rate is 99%," Luther added.

Ralph laughed heartily. "That's great. It's been a long time since we had such a booming family. Speaking of twin genes, the Heath family has a branch where twins, although always girls, have been born generation after generation. Maybe you inherited that gene."

Cecelia added, "That might not be the case, Anderson is a singleton. Perhaps the twins this time are just a coincidence."

Luther and Joyce exchanged glances, their eyes dimming a little. They knew very well that Anderson was also a twin, a boy and a girl. Unfortunately, Alisha had died at birth. This pain, they chose not to let Cecelia and Ralph bear again.

The family chatted for a while. Ralph then cleared his throat, his demeanor turning serious.

"Joyce, gathering everyone here today, I also wanted to discuss future plans. What are your plans for the future?" Ralph asked Joyce. "You can think about it first."

At this point, Luther sat up straighter. He had a feeling that tonight's conversation would inevitably touch on future plans.

"Of course, Luther, I'd like to hear your plans as well," Ralph turned to Luther, his gaze more serious.

Luther said solemnly, "Dad, I've thought about what you've said. No matter what, I will respect Joyce's choice. In terms of career, I can adjust for her."

He glanced at Cecelia, "You don't need to worry about me. I'm fine."
