Chapter 276: The New Family Member

When Fiona's words ended, Celeste could almost feel her teeth grinding against each other the moment she heard the word 'partner.' Of course, she had already accepted the kind of man her son had become and would continue to grow into in the future. 

However, at this point, she couldn't stand the fact that her son was putting himself through all this stress because of his 'partners,' and that included Fiona-the-well woman, whom she could already assume was also his partner from the way he had foolishly rushed to rescue her, even carrying the Village Chief along, thereby putting all of their lives in danger and burdening Greta with so much work to ensure their recovery.

Nonetheless, it wasn't that she was angry for no reason or didn't want to understand the reasons or circumstances of the situation. But from what she had seen, a significant portion of Orion's partners were women who were several generations older than him.
