Deana hastily changed into her outdoor slippers and opened the door to find a lady and a middle-aged man standing outside the iron gate.

Although they were Charlie’s grandmother and uncle, Deana didn’t recognize them as the Evans family seldom appeared in the media.

“Who are you looking for?” Deana inquired.

The lady smiled and asked, “Excuse me, are you Ms.

Deana Thorne?”

Upon hearing her name, Deana replied modestly, “Yes, that’s me.

May I know who you are, Auntie?”

The lady smiled and introduced herself, “I am Eleanor Evans, Bruce Wade’s mother-in-law and Lily’s mother.”

Then she gestured to the man beside her and continued, “And this is my eldest son and Lily’s younger brother, Desmond…”

Deana was surprised to see Aunt Evans standing at the door and exclaimed, “Aunt Evans, please come in! And Mr. Evans, please come in too!”

She quickly opened the door, welcoming them inside.

Initially, Deana was unsure why Aunt Evans had come to visit her.
