A Love Trap

"Andrew! You've finally come back!" Susie cried out cheerfully when she saw Andrew coming in. She hurriedly got up from the sofa in the living room and ran to him.

However, even to his younger sister, Andrew remained sort of indifferent and uttered "hmm" as a response to her excitement.

Two other people appeared on the second floor when they heard Susie's excited voice.

"Is Andrew back?"

An amiable woman in her thirties, hand in hand with a middle-aged man in his fifties, showed on the second floor, looking at Andrew with a warm and gentle smile. The woman was Arya, and the man was Ethan.

"We both miss you a lot. Although you might be occupied with a lot of business at the company at the moment, you need to take some rest. You should also pay attention to your health,"

Arya said softly, as she gave Andrew a fond gaze filled with so much love and care.

"He's already a grown-up. You don't need to have so many unnecessary worries," Ethan next to her muttered. For some reason, he seemed to be very annoyed.

"Dad, Mom!" Susie exclaimed, turning around and looking at them.

With no time to spare, she hurried up the stairs to Ethan, took his hand and said like a child, "Dad, Andrew's finally back!"

Susie was spoiled rotten by Ethan as he had her in his later years.

Ethan gently caressed her head, and as he fondly looked at her with his eyes full of love and affection, he said, "Yes, I see him, darling."

With that, Susie replied, "Then let's go downstairs now!"

With the help of Susie and Arya, Ethan was able to descend the stairs.
