He said he was about to leave.
“Hey, answer my question first,” Valeria grabbed him, looking like she wouldn't give up until he answered.

“Zayden, you're not getting any younger, it's tto start thinking about the big things in life,” Merlin suddenly
said.
After the New Year, Zayden turned 29.
“Only 29, still early,” Zayden said to Merlin.
“Did you fall for Ira?” This time, Valeria asked directly, without beating around the bush.

“Valeria, let's go pick up Rach too,” Iris said.
Valeria grabbed her, “No need, it’s cold outside, too lazy to put on clothes, waiting for her inside is the same.”
The room was warm as spring, but outside was a winter wonderland. It was like two different worlds. You
definitely had to bundle up when going out.
Plus, Iris hasn't even finished her postpartum recovery yet, how can we expect her to go outside in the cold for
Rachel.
“Yeah, Ira, just wait at home, no need to spoil Rach,” Merlin also said.
Now Iris treats the Knighton family as her own family, since Merlin and Valeria said so, she just sat with everyone
in the living room.
“Dad, mom, Zayden!”
In no time, a girl's loud and crisp scream cfrom the front door.
“Hey, Rach!”

Valeria hugged her daughter who ran over, instantly smiling and gently patting her back, “Hey hey, I'm here,
why are you shouting so loudly.”
Rachel buried her face in Valeria’s body and didn’t want to lift her head for a moment.
Iris and Zayden stood three meters away from the mother and daughter.
Looking at Rachel's lively and energetic little girl look, and the scene of the mother and daughter hugging, to be
honest, Iris was a bit envious:
“Hello Madam Knighton, Zayden, | am...
Suddenly, another girl walked in through the doorway and appeared in everyone's sight.

the people in front of her.
