Chapter 10： Attending a Party Together

"I don't remember what happened afterward. Did I…… do anything insane?" She asked tentatively with a soft and tender voice.

It was these words that made Edwiin's gaze shift to Suzanne's face. He narrowed his eyes and glanced up and down at her, causing her to feel flustered and nervous.

"What do you think you have done?" The sky outside was getting dark, and Edwiin's handsome face looked even more charming in the moonlight.

"I do not……"

Under Edwiin's gaze, Suzanne wished she could become a butterfly and fly away. "I don't know either……"

She coughed softly and was extremely embarrassed.

Edwiin stared at her eyes for a moment and glanced at her beautiful face. Naturally, he noticed her uneasiness.

He frowned slightly, pursed his lips, and calmly said, "When you are alone, don't drink too much. This is not only the rule set by Morrison's family, but also for your own good. I don't want it to happen again."

Edwiin stared at her face for seconds and calmly said, "Let's go in first. Don't let parents wait too long."

After saying this, he walked toward Neverland Manor's gate. As he passed by Suzanne, she could clearly smell the fresh and familiar minty smell from him.

She was lost in thought for a moment. When she came to her senses, Edwiin's figure had almost disappeared from the cobblestone path.

Morrison's Family

The table was full of tasty dishes, and the servants retreated to the door. Afra Morrison picked up the spoon and the bowl in front of Edwiin. She put down a large bowl of soup and then picked up Suzanne's.

She glanced lovingly at the two people in front of her and continued to scoop up the soup without forgetting to nag.

"You two are siblings and you never make me stop worrying, and our family has enough money. Each of you is like a workaholic. It's okay that Edwiin worked late into the night and didn't go home, but now Suzanne also got this habit."

The word "siblings" made Edwiin pause for a moment, but soon he continued to put food in his bowl as if nothing had happened and chewed slowly.

Suzanne guessed that Edwiin had called home last night and found an excuse for her. All of a sudden, a strange feeling rose from the bottom of her heart.

However, in front of Frederic and Afra, she could not say anything more. She bit her lips and displayed what a daughter should be.

"Mom, I know you're blaming me for not returning home last night. It's just that…… I've been busy with work lately…… I won't do it again……"

Suzanne's parents passed away when she was very young. It was Afra and Frederic who brought her up. She was grateful to them very much.

To her, Frederic and Afra were her second parents. It was only right for her to address them as parents. As for Edwiin……

"All right! I'm just saying! It's understandable that young people like you are busy with work. However, if you don't go home next time, call me back yourself. Don't let your brother pass the message for you again!"

"Alright……"

"Mom, when did you have so much to say?" As soon as Edwiin spoke, his indifferent and gloomy aura emanated naturally, and the people around the table became silent for seconds.

Not only was Suzanne stunned, but even the Afra was also stunned, unable to react in time.

Frederic, who had been eating quietly, suddenly raised his head. His deep eyes swept over Edwiin and Suzanne one after another. When he looked at Afra, he spoke in a hoarse voice.

"Right, just have the meal. They are tired after work. We should not say that too much."

Afra could not close her mouth in surprise. After a long while, she rolled her eyes and put down the bowl heavily. Then, she sat down and picked up her chopsticks as well.

"I can't even talk during the meal. You're unreasonable!"
