Kapitel 61: Chapter 61

Lance was about to greet them when the children squealed and joyfully jumped up and down, hugging one another as if they had been separated for the last century. He skillfully ignored the loud noises and greeted Michael with a nod and a handshake.

“Come in, Mr. Johnson.”

“Call me Lance, please.”

“Okay, Lance. Call me Mike, then. Thanks for coming at such a short notice.”

“No problem. Thanks for having us. Sorry that Adam can’t make it. He’s busy at the store. Your house is…umm, nice.”

The other man laughed. “Too small for a billionaire, huh?”

Lance flushed in embarrassment.

“It’s alright, Lance. I hadn’t counted on adopting Megan a few years ago. I thought I would be a childless bachelor for the rest of my life.”

“Sorry, Mike.”

“Don’t be.”

They made their way into the living room, then Mike gave Megan permission to drag the twins into the adjoining room. Apparently, that was where she kept her toys.
