Chapter 1054

When Percival left, Nathan Ellington and Cecilia Boyd had just returned from a stroll around the neighborhood.

Surprised to see him at this hour, they half-expected some urgent news.

Percival, mindful of the elder's reputation, didn't divulge much, merely stating he was just dropping by.

Cecilia, always the caring one, couldn't help but ask after Vivienne's health, her concern evident.

Nathan glanced at his watch, "It's getting late.Why don't you stay for dinner?"

Isolde stepped forward, latching onto his arm, “Bro, ever since you got hitched, it's been ages since we had a meal together.

You can't just forget us now that you have a wife’ Cecilia frowned slightly, "Isolde, she's family too.Let's not have any more of that talk"

Isolde’s face fell, "I didn't mean it that way, I just wanted you to stay for dinner with us."

Right then, Vivienne called to check on Richard's condition.

Percival reassured her all was well and mentioned he'd join her after dinner at her parents’.

Vivienne was straightforward, “Mr.Wolf, I'll wait for you."

At lunch, Isolde made a point to sit next to Percival, serving him his favorite shrimp dish, "Here, you love these.Eat up."

Percival took it, urging her to eat as well and not fuss over him.

Isolde watched him eat, a fleeting shadow of something unspoken in her eyes, quickly gone.
