Chapitre 217: CH 216: Come and Drop By

"Tell me, mother. Did your chauffeur go missing that you'd need me to pick you up?"

"It's a family event, Yan. And you're family," Avery reasoned over the phone. She walked behind a few kiosks at the park. "I didn't even force you to attend. This is the least you could do."

Silence flowed from the other line and into her ear. Children's laughter and giggled filled her other one. She stopped in her tracks, scratching the back of her neck. From the corner of her eye, she spotted Mikael and Eve with the twins. They strolled around to showcase the other attractions like food, goods and fortune telling.

The madam bit her lip. "I also know the twins want to see you. Drop by. Say hi. Then, we go."

Ambryan gritted his teeth. The traffic was terrible at this hour. It would be faster to take a longer route to the park. That was only if there weren't other variables that could get in the way—like accidents. 

So far, he hadn't encountered one yet.
