Tristan said nothing to Alan and entered the house.
Alan trailed Tristan from behind with a smile on his face. He felt relieved that the young Master didn’t cancel this dinner, unlike the last time.
When Tristan entered the living room, Jessica was the first to notice him. She stood up from her seat, and with a broad smile, she walked over to him.
"My son, you are finally here. Oh, dear, you look so handsome as always... come, come... give your mother hugs. Oh my, I miss you so much, Tristan." She said while opening her arms.
"Mother," Tristan accepted her hug gently, but his expression remained the same, calm but expressionless.
Jessica released her hug and looked at Tristan, "Why didn’t you come to meet us sooner? You already know we returned from our holiday, right?"
"Mother, I know. But I’m so busy with the company. I don’t have free time."
"Oh dear, please... spare some free time for yourself. Or you will be stressed and exhausted. Don’t force yourself with your work—"
"Enough, Jessica!" A commanding, deep voice from behind caused Jessica to stop talking and look at the voice.
Jessica smiled, "William, can you just let me speak to our only son?" she pouted to her husband, but William ignored her and looked at Tristan.
He smiles at him, "Tristan, sit with us..." William Sinclair said.
Tristan looked at his father with a half-smile on his lips, "Father—"
Before Tristan could join his father and Grandpa, he stopped when his mother held his hand. He turned to look at her, "What is it, Mother!?"
"Son, I need to talk to you... There’s something important we need to discuss," Jessica whispered. 𝑓𝘳𝑒𝑒𝓌𝘦𝘣𝘯ℴ𝑣𝘦𝑙.𝘤𝑜𝑚
He merely nodded and then walked toward the seating area. After he sat near his Grandpa, he finally looked at him.
"Grandpa, why are you still wearing your angry expression!? I already arrived..." Tristan chuckled, trying to humor his annoyed Grandpa.
"Brat, if I didn’t force you to come, you would never come to this house... Why do you seem to be avoiding me?"
Tristan could only smile as he looked at his Grandpa. He didn’t answer his question. Instead, he said, "I’m starving, Grandpa. Shall we start our dinner now?"
He didn’t plan to stay longer in this place. He only needed to dine, speak to his mother, and return to his house. He needed to prepare many things before meeting his son, Dax.
"It’s not even seven, and you’re already hungry?" Lewis replied as he checked his Rolex. "You skip your lunch again? Why?"
"Hmm, I’ve not eaten anything since morning. Someone ruined my mood!" Tristan wanted to say that but held his anger as he glanced at his mother.
Tristan felt a slight anger appear in his heart when he remembered what had happened that noon between Bella and his mother.
"Tristan, follow me inside. There’s something I want to say to you." Suddenly, Jessica speaks, surprising everyone. She stood from her seat, politely apologizing to Lewis and William before leaving the room.
"Hurry, dear..." She urged Tristan to follow her.
