Chapter 168

Inside the car, George held Suzy's hand and said warmly, "My father is more of the serious type, but my mother has a cheerful personality. My brother and sister-in-law are also very talkative. There's no need to be nervous. You can simply answer whatever they ask, and if they give you a gift, just accept it."

Hearing his tone, Suzy felt more and more like they were a couple that wa about to meet up with the parents. She tried hard to get rid of this thought and pretended to be relaxed as she said, "Don't they want to thank me? So why should i be nervous?" George chuckled. "It's good that you're not! Enoah traveled to Yorkbrent and is coming back with them, so all of you can have a good chat." Suzy had not seen Enoah for a long time. She nodded when she heard this. "Sure."

Very quickly, they arrived at the Laine family's house. George and Suzy got out of the car and walked toward the main courtyard of the villa one after the other.

The servant came up to greet them and smiled respectfully. "Mr. George and Ms. Shirley!"

"Ms. Shirley is here!" Ean's voice came from the living room, and he ran over quickly. Perhaps because his parents had returned, he was livelier than usual. "You're back as well, Uncle George!" George walked to the living room with Suzy and said, "Yeah. I passed by River U and happened to bump into your tutor."

The people in the living room gradually appeared in Suzy's line of sight. Enoah got up first and smiled at her mother, Juniper Joy, while saying, "Mom, this is Suzy Shirley." Juniper stood up to greet her. She stretched out her hand and said with a gentle smile, "Ms. Shirley."

Suzy shook her hands and said, "Hello!"

"Please, take a seat!" Juniper was in her 40s. At first glance, she looked like a woman from a scholarly family. She had a soft and calm appearance. Every movement of hers was dignified and elegant.

At this moment, the glass door leading to the yard was pushed open. A woman wearing a dark cotton silk top walked in. She looked to be in her 60s, but her skin was fair and smooth. Her eyes were bright, and she asked with smile, "Is young Ms. Shirley here?" Juniper walked over immediately. She quietly smiled and said, "Yes, She just arrived." George got up and said with a smile, "Mom!" Suzy also hurriedly called out, "Madam Laine." Madam Laine walked over and looked at Suzy with a gentle pair of eyes. "This child sure is good-looking!

Juniper smiled as well and said, "Right? I was rather shocked when I saw her earlier too. I thought that our Enoah was quite the beauty herself, but I didn't expect her to have lost completely in the blink of an eye."

George glanced at Suzy, and there was an indiscernible smile on his lips. Enoah wrapped her arms around Suzy's and said angrily, "You guys are being too much! Just praise Suzy if you want to. There's no need to belittle me!" Suzy was also a little embarrassed. She smiled at Enoah while saying, "Mrs. and Madam Laine are just being polite. Don't take it to heart."

Enoah laughed and said, "Have you mistaken the hierarchy in the family here? How could you call my grandma 'Madam'? You should be calling her 'Grandma' as well." Suzy glanced over at George and could not help but feel like laughing. "Yes. Well, if Madam Laine doesn't mind it, I shall call her 'Grandma' too." George raised his hand and pinched his forehead, then turned to look into the courtyard. "Of course, I don't mind. Just call me 'Grandma' from now on like Enoah." Madam Laine smiled warmly. "Sit down now. Don't stand there."

At this moment, Jessie came in with a few boxes of Vegemay pastries in his hand. George took them and placed them on the table. "Suzy bought these for you." Juniper gently said, "We invited you to come to our house to thank you for teaching Ean so well. You shouldn't have spent money on us." Suzy was also a little surprised. George only told her about coming to the Laine family's house late last night, so she did not have the time to prepare a gift at all. However, George had already asked Jessie to prepare it in advance. me She smiled and said, "It's just a few boxes of pastries." Enoah came over and made Suzy sit down, "You're with your own people here, so don't be too polite now!"
