“So it’s true?” Frank pressed his ear to the phone. His serious expression made the people around the dining table even more curious.

“Okay, thank you. Please notify me immediately if there is any other information.”

As soon as Frank hung up, everyone leaned forward. “How is it?” several people asked in unison.

Frank shook his head faintly. “Sophia wasn’t lying. She really had an abortion.”

The other spontaneously leaned back in their chairs, including Kara. What a poor little baby,” she sighed.

“Come on, don’t be too sad. Try to look at the positive side. Imagine if Sophia kept the fetus. Jeremy might become attached to her. His marriage to Ava could be threatened,” Melanie said lightly.

Barbara widened her eyes at those words. “Mommy?” “What? | said it as it is. Was what | said wrong?”

“Even if that’s true, you must respect Mrs. Bell, Mom. After all, that’s her grandchild,” Barbara whispered with furrowed eyebrows.

“| think your mother has a point, Barbara,” Vivian said unexpectedly. If Sophia gave birth to Jeremy’s child, Jeremy and Ava’s marriage. could be shaken. That could be a bigger problem.”

Others did not dare to comment. The matter was too complicated, a clash between ego and conscience. Suddenly, Louis’ laughter broke the silence. Everyone turned towards

him.

“Mommy, Daddy!” He jumped when he arrived between his parents. ” We managed to cheer up Uncle Jeremy. He is no longer sad. He said, we can continue partying now.”

The next second, Emily arrived gasping for breath. “Louis, why did your leave me? We agreed to come here together,” she scolded, adorably.

“Sorry, Emily. | was too excited to tell the others the happy news.”

“So everyone already knows?”

Louis nodded. “Yes. Let’s sit down quickly or Uncle Jeremy will know if we report to the others.” While the twins climbed into the chairs, Vivian whispered, “Did Jeremy cry?”

Louis shook his head. “No. Only his eyes are red.”

“What about Ava?” Melanie inquired.

“Neither did she. Aunt Ava entertained Uncle Jeremy very well.”

Vivian nodded her head. Her furrowed brows loosened slightly. “Then. let’s start eating. Don’t let Jeremy see that we haven't eaten. He'll think we're worried about him. He'll be sad again.”

“Yes, Vivian is right.” Melanie nodded lightly. “Let’s start eating. | hungry too.”

Hearing that signal, Louis and Emily quickly spread out their napkin

“Mommy, | want those fries and steak!”

“| want that creamy soup! Please get it for me, Mommy.”

Kara smiled at her children’s enthusiasm. “Be patient, Little Angels. Mommy will take them one by one.”

“Thank you, Mommy.”

When Jeremy and Ava arrived, the twins were already eating heartily. Others also acted as if nothing had happened. “Jeremy, sorry, we ate first. The menu at your wedding is too tempting.” Philip added pieces of tuna to his plate.

Jeremy took his seat with a small smile. His eyes filled with tears looking at the people around him. “Thank you, Everyone. | really appreciate your sympathy. You don’t need to pretend anymore.”

In an instant, everyone stopped eating. The fries that had just entered Louis’ mouth were hanging, just like the stiffness in the air.

“What do you mean by pretending, Jeremy? | don’t understand.” Vivian shook her head slightly. “Have you been crying? Your eyes are red.”

Vivian hurriedly lowered her head. Her hands clenched into fists, feeling guilty that her acting was bad. Suddenly, Jeremy reached for her fingers.

“You don’t need to worry, Mom.” Jeremy glanced at the others briefly.” You too. I’m fine. Maybe God is teaching me how to let go.”

However, everyone remained frozen. No one dared to speak up, afraid of offending.

“Ava is fine too. She can understand what happened between me Sophia. Our marriage will not be affected, and neither will this par

While widening his smile, Jeremy shifted his gaze towards the twins As Emily and Louis said, there's no point in me being down for long. I'd better wish the baby happiness in heaven.”

Some people started having difficulty catching their breath. Mourning felt full in their chests.

“We're sorry about what happened to you, Jeremy,” Kara said with teary eyes. The others nodded and continued through mumbling.

“Thank you. | really appreciate your sympathy.” Jeremy nodded slightly.

“Uncle Jeremy, how about we pray together for the baby in heaven before we continue eating?” Emily pointed her index finger at the side.

of her head.

“That’s a great idea, Emily. Uncle, let's lead the prayer.” Louis nodded vigorously.

Jeremy smiled faintly. With mixed feelings, he led the prayer.

Everyone listened intently to his every word with eyes closed. But after that, they all widened their eyes.

“Where are Louis and Emily?” Barbara looked around.

“Are they preparing their surprise? But, aren’t they planning to show it after eating?” Philip was also surprised. Suddenly, all the lights went out. Not only Philip and Barbara, but the

others were also anxious.

“What is this? Is it Sophia’s doing again?” Melanie said, looking around for light. When she found one, she was stunned. “What creature is that?”

Asmall flaming skull was in the style of Michael Jackson. After a while, another skull arrived with a different style. “Oh my, Louis, Emily? Do you want to do an LED dance?” Barbara let out a laugh.

“LED dance? What is that?” Melanie furrowed her brows.

“Just wait for it, Mom. It will be very entertaining.”

Just as Barbara finished speaking, music played. The two skulls started to sway back and forth. In an instant, everyone let out a sigh

of amusement. “Gosh, they’re so cute. Where did they get that property?” Vivian said while watching the twins’ movements. “They made it themselves. | don’t know how much duct tape they spent for the LED strip lights,” Kara said amused.

Since he was too active, the duct tape on Louis’ mask came off. His skull drooped and everyone laughed louder, including Jeremy.

Hearing that, Ava quietly smiled, glancing to the side. Even though Jeremy was covered in darkness, she could feel his sadness starting

to fade.

Suddenly, Jeremy’s arm stretched out to cover her shoulders. “gent the twi vermanteee whispered. Please read the original content at .

“Who is that? Barbara? Is that you?” Melanie fumbled to the side. “No. I'm here.”

“Abigail?”

“No. I'm here.”

“Philip?”

“If ’'m there, then who is sitting next to you, Babe?”

“Then who is that?”

Everyone checked the seats next to them.

“That’s Grandma Diana!” Abigail exclaimed before bursting into laughter. “No wonder the style is a bit strange. Grandma, that style is no longer fashionable!”

“Gosh, why does Grandma want to follow the twins?” Barbara said,

unable to think.

“Because it’s fun, Babe. Kara, are there any clothes still available? | want to join in,” Philip stated. “No, Philip. There’s only one adult outfit.”

Philip.sighed in disappointment. “That's a shame. They should have prepared another one for me. Babe, how about | borrow Grandma Diana’s LED clothes to take to our honeymoon? We could scare the

locals with that.” “Don’t mess around, Philip. Our honeymoon could be ruined if the local catch you.”

Feeling the warm atmosphere, Jeremy finally smiled freely. There were no more feelings weighing on his heart. He realized that he should focus on what he still had rather than mourning what had

gone. “So, when are you two leaving for your honeymoon?”

“That means Philip can’t scare the locals. The sun shines 24 h day there,” Frank said, amused.

“You think I’m serious? Barbara and | are going there for honeymo Frank.” Philip chuckled. “Oh, | can’t wait to have fun there.”
