Tiffany became even more distressed. “L.”

With a bang. Josiah set down his cutlery, his tone laced with impatience as he snapped, “It’s not your place to ask that question, is it?”

Though the words were delivered with an air of nonchalance, they held a somewhat intimidating force.

Tiffany bit her lip, not daring to speak.

Josiah peeled another one, placing it on Susan’s plate. “Mom, you should eat too.”

He then took the initiative to smooth things over. “Josiah, even if you’re not my son–in–law, you’re still someone Molly and I watched grow up. We share so many years of bond, and you’re still considered. family in the future.”

Josiah didn’t say much. He picked up the red wine glass by his side. “Mr. Thorne, let me toast you.”

“All right then.”
