Upon arriving at Goldarch Hotel, Quiana felt a little unconfident and out of place as she noticed the endless stream of guests entering the hotel.

After listening to Ximena’s introduction, Desmond and Quiana hurriedly greeted, “Hello. We’ll be a family in the future.”

Yahir and Yosef glanced at them indifferently without giving any response. There was even a hint of disdain flashing across their eyes.
