Chapter 2019: Confession in the Face
After chatting for a while, Cecelia arrived with Iris and greeted everyone. Cecelia, the legendary lady of the mansion, commanded everyone's respect. Karl was familiar with Cecelia and they acknowledged each other. It was Felix's first meeting with Cecelia, and he was curious. Vicki, on the other hand, held Felix back from being too forward.
After exchanging greetings, Cecelia turned to Vicki and said, "We all share the Qin surname, we are one family."
Vicki, in a friendly and approachable tone, reached out and took Cecelia's hand. "Aunt, I've heard about you. Your sharpshooting skills are unmatched. Can you teach me sometime?"
Karl approached and lifted Iris up, asking Joyce, "This is Iris, I'm seeing her for the first time."
He looked at Luther, "She really looks like you, Mr. Warner."
Joyce patted Iris's head, "Call him Uncle."
With a tender voice, Iris called out, "Hello, Uncle!"
Luther glanced at Karl, "You're quite charming. Iris is usually shy, and not everyone can hold her."
"Really?" Karl seemed pleased and said to Iris, "My daughter will be born soon. I hope she's as lovely as you."
"Wow, can I play with my little sister in the future?" Iris looked forward with bright eyes. She only had older brothers and no older sisters.
"Of course, you're welcome to visit The Capital often in the future," Karl said, putting Iris down.
Felix immediately came over and looked closely at Iris.
"Uncle Saunders, what are you looking at?" Iris tilted her head.
"I think Iris has grown up and looks more beautiful than before," Felix complimented sincerely. It seemed that Iris had fully recovered. Vicki wanted to hold Iris, but Joyce stopped her due to Vicki's pregnancy. Felix glanced at her sideways, and Vicki, frustrated, said, "I have not seen Iris in a while. I want to hold her. What's wrong?"
Iris curiously walked up, "Can I listen to the baby's movements in your belly?"
"Of course," Vicki's eyes softened. Iris carefully placed her ear on Vicki's belly and gently touched.
Suddenly, Iris shouted, "He's moving, it's the little brother, right?"
Vicki nodded.
"Aunt, you must have more kids and give me more sisters to play with," Iris looked at Vicki expectantly.
Vicki's smile froze. More kids... it would be too much trouble.
Felix, with a good mood, held Iris's hand gently. "Okay, for sure."
Vicki elbowed Felix, who groaned.
Everyone chatted and enjoyed the evening. Luther then said, "I've prepared dinner in the kitchen. Let's sit down and eat together."
Iris waved her hand, "Dad, I already ate with grandma."
"Already?" Joyce was surprised.
"Yes, grandma brought me here to see you, and now we have to go back to take care of the little brothers," Iris said solemnly, "I helped a lot, too."
"You're a good girl," Luther praised, kissing her and then handing Iris to Cecelia.
"You young folks eat on your own, I won't intrude," Cecelia laughed, "I'll leave to look after Wilson and Cullen, we'll have plenty of opportunities to gather in the future. You're all welcome to visit our home often. Cecelia then left, taking Iris with her.
Felix gazed enviously at Luther, "You're very lucky, having a daughter who helps look after her brothers. I envy you."
"You'll have your turn," Luther said, glaring at Felix. Vicki, irritated, elbowed Felix again.
Joyce smiled, "We're able to have this gathering. In the future, everyone will come with their children, and the children can have their own table."
Felix suddenly remembered, "Why haven't we seen Anderson? Where is he?"
"Oh, he's with Kane. They're at the server room checking the lines. I've already sent them dinner," Joyce replied.
"Felix, you are truly lucky," he continued, commenting on Joyce's family. "Your son is intelligent, and your daughter is gorgeous and gentle. You even have a pair of twin sons. It's too late tonight. We won't disturb you, but we can meet Wilson and Cullen tomorrow, right?"
"Of course," Joyce nodded.
Vicki glared at Felix, "You envy this and that. What's wrong? Have I said I won't continue having kids? I can also have four."
Vicki regretted her words. She then put her arms around Vicki. "I can't bear for my wife to have four kids. I think two are enough. A son and a daughter are perfect. If it's too hard, one is enough. After all, you are the most important. I love you. Vicki blushed, he declared his love in front of everyone. The atmosphere in the room was even more harmonious.
Joyce called out, "Dinner is served. Let's eat and chat."
