Feeling regrettable, Linus shook his head and said, “I’m afraid you’ll be disappointed. He’s been traveling around the world in recent times—even I don’t know which country he’s in at the moment. It’s up to fate whether or not we’ll see each other again.”

Michael knew what was on Fass’ mind when he started traveling around the world. F*ck! He’s so spontaneous!

“I guess we’ll leave it to fate then,” Harry remarked casually, ending the conversation about Fass.

While they were halfway through enjoying the barbequed lamb, Michael asked the cook to slice the meat for them and make it into a pot of lamb broth. After it was ready, Michael helped scoop a bowl of piping hot lamb broth for Sophia.

Before this, Linus was very much disgusted with hotpot because everyone would dip their chopsticks into the shared pot in order to get food. However, for reasons unbeknownst to him, he had slowly grown used to it after having it a few times. As they were enjoying the hotpot, they chatted and joked around. The atmosphere was pleasant.

While Sophia and Michael intimately helped each other to the food, Harry took out his phone and took pictures of everything on the table before uploading it on Twitter. Meanwhile, Sean and Stanley were talking business while Nathan, sitting next to Linus, turned around and curiously looked at Linus from time to time.

Linus felt surprised because, for the first time, he was able to have such a pleasant and enjoyable time eating with others. In the Michel Family’s mansion in Northern Europe, even though the entire family would come together to eat often, the atmosphere was never this pleasant.

Halfway through their meal, Daniel decided to join them after seeing Harry’s Twitter post and finding out that they were having a good meal. After the meal, Daniel held Linus’ hand as he wanted to read his palm.

“You have a good life blessed with riches. You’ll die peacefully,” Daniel commented firmly before the others made fun of it.
