    However, the current Alexander was inseparable from Isabe. Due to their collective return to


    Yrinas, they were quite hesitant. They thought it would be best to wait until the wedding. By then,


    they would bring the young couple over to Yrinas.


    Furthermore, they were a tad anxious. After all, at the moment, the members of the branch family


    couldn’t hear Isabe’s inner thoughts.


    The peculiar situation surrounding Isabe was still unclear, so it was best not to involve too many


    people.


    Of course, the Quirks also felt the need to inquire about Isabe’s thoughts.


    At that moment, Isabe’s mind was filled with nothing but Alexander. She seemed to finally


    understand why he was initially emotionally distant and indifferent to others. He only showed


    interest in others‘ matters on the surface, but behind the scenes, he would take action to help them.


    His reserved and silent


    nature had a reason.


    A deep ache began to throb in Isabe’s heart, and suddenly, all she wanted was to hold Alexander


    in her


    arms.


    Upon hearing the inquiry from the Quirks, Isabe immediately responded, “Wherever my husband


    is, that’s where I’ll be. I have no intention of being separated from him.”


    Seemingly filled with some kind of indignation, she made an exaggerated deration. This


    happened to be overheard by Alexander, who had just arrived at the front door.


    Alexander blinked, frozen at the doorway, his face beginning to blush again. He cleared his throat


    and said, “I’ve mentioned before that you can apany me to the office if you want to. It won’t


    disrupt my work.”


    Isabe was at a loss for words.

    Upon hearing this, the Quirks realized that Alexander had missed the previous conversation. They


    breathed a sigh of relief, but the next moment they found themselves in a mix ofughter and tears.


    These two were once again unting their affection in front of them.


    Of course, Alexander was not so thoughtless. In fact, he also realized that the other members of the


    Quirk family were nning to return to Yrinas.


    He remembered his grandfather’s birthday. Every year, he actually sent gifts, and asionally, he


    would video chat with the old man. It was just that he couldn’t go back.


    Alexander’s emotions had mostly faded when he thought about that ce. However, if asked if he


    wanted to go back, the answer would definitely be no.


    But whenever he thought of Isabe, he felt a certain itch in his heart. He should bring Isabe to an


    event like this.


    Just as Alexander found himself in a rare state of indecision, a call from Lionel came through.


    Alexander was in the midst of handling documents when he heard the ringtone. A smile tugged at


    the corner of his mouth. “Be, could you answer the phone for me?”

    Before Isabe could even speak, a weathered, aged voice came from the other end. “Alexander,


    are you nning to skip my birthday banquet again?”


    Isabe was taken aback for a moment, but she quickly regained herposure and said politely,


    “Hello Grandpa, this is Isabe. Please hold on for a moment. I will let Alexander take the call.”


    The other party seemed to pause for a moment. Isabe, not wanting to engage in small talk with


    an unfamiliar elder, quickly handed Alexander his phone,


    Upon hearing the familiar address, Alexander instantly recognized who was on the other end of the


    line. He picked up the call and greeted, “Grandpa.”


    Lionel asked, “Was that your wife just now? You two are together during work hours? You even let


    her answer your calls? Seems like the rumors are true then.


    Although Lionel’s tone seemed quite pleasant, his speech was intermittent. The sound of a


    respirator humming in the background could be heard.


    “Be apanied me to work. Grandpa, why did you call?”


    Isabe was cautiously observing Alexander when she heard a somewhat deep voiceing from


    the other end of the phone. “This year marks my nieth birthday, and we have the most family


    members and guests gathered than ever before. As the current head of the Quirk family, shouldn’t


    you make a formal appearance with your wife?”


    Alexander’s eyes flickered as he turned to look at Isabe, who was standing by his side.


    Isabe shrugged, indicating she didn’t care.


    I don’t care about making an appearance. If Alexander doesn’t like it, we won’t go. Everything else


    is just trivial.


    A warmth spread through Alexander’s heart. Unable to resist, he pulled Isabe into his arms with


    one hand, embracing thefort she brought.

    The voice on the other end of the phone continued without waiting for a response, “I know my own


    body.


    I’m not sure if I’ll have the chance to celebrate another birthday next year. While the Quirk family


    still has


    an old man like me around, I want to support you, be your backing, and pave the way for you…”


    In reality, Lionel had put in a lot of effort. Among all his descendants, only Alexander received


    personal phone calls from him. His persuasive tone was also quite unique because of Alexander’s


    special circumstances.
