In the evening, when Ian arrived at the Xavier mansion, he stood outside the door until Elaine came t o open the door.

She had just washed her hair, and there was a faint scent of shampoo, and her half- dried hair was loosely tied.

Her plain face made her look a little more innocent.

Not many women could maintain their fair complexion and smooth skin when they were without makeup.

"You’ve come, do come in."

Elaine pulled him into the entryway and closed the door.

In order to entertain him, Jenna had already cooked up a storm in the kitchen and prepared a sumptuous dinner.

All there was left to do was to wait for him to come for dinner.

"It’s nice to see you, Mr.Xavier, Mrs.Xavier."

He nodded slightly and sounded very humble and polite.

"Alright, go wash your hands and join us at the table.Everyone has been waiting for you."

Jenna welcomed him with a grin and then said, "Elaine doesn’t know what you like to eat, so I only cooked some of our usual dishes."

Ian took a glance at Elaine and gave a faint smile.

"It’s okay, I’m not a picky eater."

Elaine felt very embarrassed.
