Chapter 351


    That evening at Peaceful Medical Center, Natasha waltzed in through the


    doors happily with two bottles of wine in her hand. “Honey, I’m back! Look what I brought! These are ag


    ed wines, I’m sure you’ll love them!”


    All of a sudden, the smile on her face froze as she noticed that not only was Dustin not inside, but there


    were also two strangers in there instead. Gregory, who


    was usually in a drunken stupor, now sat upright with a stern expression on his face. How peculiar.


    “Mr. Jones, who are they?” Natasha’s curiosity was piqued.


    “You’re back,ss? Here, let me introduce them. This one here is Dustin’s father, and this one is an old


    pal of mine.” Gregory gestured to Rufus and Albert, respectively, as he introduced them to Natasha.

    “Dustin’s father?” Natasha’s eyes lit up.


    “Oh, so my father–in–


    ach a cup of tea. Then, she smiled sweetly and said to Rufus, “Please have some tea, Father!”


    “What?” Rufus took a while to adapt to such enthusiasm. “Youngdy, may I know who you might be?”


    “As this is our first time meeting, it’s only expected that you do not know me, Father. My name is Natas


    ha Harmon, and I’m Dustin’s wife, so I’m your daughter–in–


    “My daughter–in–


    He broke out into a heartyugh.


    “That’s great, that’s great! How lucky my son is to have such an enchanting wife like you! This


    is amazing!” As expected of a man from the Rhys family. Dustin managed to snag two charmingdies


    without anyone knowing. He sure had his way with women! Rufus was delighted.


    “Oh, you tter me too much, Father. I’m the lucky one to have Dustin. He’s such an amazing man. I’d


    say he’s quite a catch!” Natasha chuckled.


    “Oh, is thatd really such a fine man?” Rufus teased.


    “Of course he


    is!” Natasha did not go easy on her praise. “Not only is he capable intellectually, but he’s also skilled in


    martial arts. Besides, his medical skills are top–


    notch. It seems like there isn’t anything he can’t do! And to top it off, he’s such a gentle and caring man


    who shoulders his responsibilities well. You don’te by men like him these days!”


    “Hahaha! You sure know your man well!” Rufus chortled loudly when he heard his son being praised. H


    e beamed so brightly that his wrinkles showed, but pride was evident on his face. He was beyond hims


    elf with joy. What was more delightful than hearing one’s own child being praised by others?


    “Of course, it goes without saying that you must have taught him well for him to turn out into such an a


    mazing person, Father. Now that I think about it, ultimately, you’re the one who has the


    wisdom to raise such a brilliant son!” Natasha took the opportunity to praise Rufus as well.


    “Hahaha!” Rufus was truly over the moon. Heughed so much that his cheeks started to hurt. He had


    never been so happy in the past ten years.


    Albert, who sat beside him, smiled brightly too. He was happy for Rufus that he had yet another daught


    er–inw.


    “Oh, you do have your way with your words, youngdy! Since you called me ‘father‘, I


    must give you a present.” After Rufus calmed down from his joyfulughter, Rufus took out a dagger an


    d handed it


    to Natasha. “This dagger has been by my side for many, many years. It shall be my gift to you to mark


    our first meeting.”


    “This is too precious! I cannot have it!” Natasha waved her hands in protest. With her sharp eyes, she c


    ould tell at a nce that the dagger wasn’t just any other dagger. Just the gemstones embedded on the


    hilt for decoration alone were worth an exorbitant amount, much less the de itself.


    “Have it. It isn’t worth much. It’d be good to carry it around as protection,” Rufus chuckled. Seeing how


    understanding his daughter–in–


    “Just ept it,ss. This is your father–in–


    es in the world. Even the Sword Whisperer, who was


    obsessed with swords, had requested to have the dagger multiple times before, but Rufus had never b


    een willing to part with it.


    “Alright, then. Thank you, Father.” Natasha smiled sweetly at him and quickly stashed the dagger away


    safely.


    Then, they both had a good chat and quickly bonded with each other, so they decided to just address e


    ach other as father and daughter, respectively.


    For a moment, all was warm and cozy in the medical center.


    “Natasha, when did youe?” Right then, Dustin, who was just done shopping, entered. There was a


    smile on his face when he saw Natasha, however, when he caught sight of Rufus, his smile died down.


    “Oh, not too long ago. And


    what a coincidence that I met Father! Why did you not tell me that Father was


    she would have prepared some presents for him to win him over and gain her future father–in–


    <pw’s favor.
