    Furthermore, the dress that she was wearing did not look cheap at all. Maurice and Judith’s first


    thought was, ‘Did my son get together with a rich woman in just one day?’


    Severin smiled and said, “Yes. She’s the one who gave you money every month…”


    “Diane! Please have a seat.” Maurice smiled awkwardly and did not know what to say next. He


    was still stunned to know that his son had left the home as a single man earlier than morning and


    suddenly came back with a wife and daughterter in the day.


    Judith pulled Severin to one side and Maurice immediately followed them too.


    “What on earth is going on here? You need to give us an exnation! She’s quite a pretty young


    woman, but isn’t it a little too sudden to have a wife and a daughter? Is she a divorcee?”


    After thinking for a while, Judith could not help but say, “Will she even like us when we’re so poor?”


    That was when Severin exined everything to the two of them.


    “I see! So that’s how it is. This is the Shanahans’ eldest young miss. I didn’t expect that the man she


    slept with back then was you!” Maurice was overwhelmed when he heard his exnation. That incident


    caused quite a stir back then, so they did have a general idea of what happened. Still, it hardly crossed


    their minds that the man Diane slept with was their son.


    “So, she’s the one who secretly gave us money in the past few years. Severin, these few years were


    probably really hard for her. She came from an upper-ss family, was kicked out of her family home,


    and insisted on giving birth to her baby. Being a single mother is difficult enough, and yet she still found


    it in her to help your father and me. You need to make sure to treat her well in the future!”


    After pondering over it for a bit, Judith nced at Diane who was sitting quietly there and said sternly to


    Severin, “I’ll disown you if you ever do anything to let her down!”


    Maurice agreed. “Yes. She’s a good woman, and she even waited all those years for you! A woman like


    her is a hundred times better than Lucy, so you must be good to her. We’ll be happy as she doesn’t


    think too badly of us being poor!”


    Severin smiled. “Don’t worry, you two. We’re not poor!”


    Having said that, Severin walked over, opened the trunk of the car, and took out several shopping bags


    full of clothes. “These are for you.”


    “W-w-why did you buy all these clothes? It’s such a waste of money! You should’ve just bought them


    for your wife and daughter,” Judith remarked when she saw Severin carrying out all those


    clothes.


    Severin smiled. “Rx, Mom. I bought some for them too. Everyone gets clothes!”


    Severin then turned to Selene and said, “These are your grandparents, Selene. Say hi to them!”


    The little girl looked at Maurice and Judith before calling out timidly, “Hi, Grandpa! Hi, Grandma!”


    “Oh, my dear little granddaughter!” Judith’s heart was filled with joy. Though she was d that


    Severin had returned, she was nheless worried that it would difficult for him to find a wife. Given


    his age, their family’sck of money, and the debt they still owed, her worries were most definitely


    justified. She was therefore pleasantly surprised that he had brought back a beautiful wife and even a


    little girl whom she could call her granddaughter.


    “I can’t be happier!” Maurice nodded immediately once more and his eyes turned red with excitement.


    At that moment, Severin looked at Diane and said to her, “How long are you going to wait before. you


    call them mom and dad?”


    “I…” Diane opened her mouth to speak, but she was still a little awkward and was still not ustomed


    to it.


    Property belongs to N?vel(D)r/ama.Org.


    The old couple nced eagerly at her when they saw her preparing to speak. However, Diane quickly


    lowered her head again and acted as if she could not bring herself to say it. Judith immediately smiled


    awkwardly and said, “Don’t push her, Severin. She only just came here, and we haven’t gotten to know


    each other better yet. Don’t worry about it. She can always call us that a littleter!”


    At that time, Diane bravely raised her head and said to the old couple, “Mom, Dad! From now on, we’re


    a family, so let’s live a happy life together. I hope you’ll bear with my shorings!”
