“This matter is quite complicated. I’ll explain to you in the future, but I can assure you it’s not what you think. Gwenny has a very good personality, and you’ll grow to like her,” Cedrick said.

Tania remained silent.

Recalling Nico’s situation, Cedrick continued, “Since you’re back, Aunt Tania, why don’t you assist me with the arrangements with the family genealogy?”

“Family genealogy? What is it about?” she asked.

With a determined gaze, Cedrick said, “I want to include Nico in the family genealogy and list him as an adopted son under my father’s name!”

“All right. You’ve always known what you’re doing. Since you already have that plan in mind, I’ll help you.”

Tania was always efficient in her work.

Two days later, on an auspicious day, she called upon respected elders from the family to witness the ceremony.

Since it was a family matter among the Jensons, Gwendolyn could only stand outside and observe from a distance.

In the ancestral hall where the ceremony was conducted, Nico followed the proper etiquette. He presented a cup of tea to Valentino with both hands and respectfully greeted, “Grandpa.”

Valentino accepted the tea, took a sip calmly, and then lifted the tea cover. He lightly dipped his finger in the tea and placed a dot on Nico’s forehead.

Once the elaborate procedures were completed, the family members noted “Nico Jenson” in the family record. “You’re a part of the Jenson family now. You must be honest, abide by the laws, and always heed the guidance of the elders of the Jenson family.”

“All right, Grandpa,” Nico responded obediently.

“Go on,” Valentino said, tapping his cane to signal Nico to present another cup of tea to Cedrick.

Nico stood up and approached Cedrick.
