An hour later, Lucas saw Kasey out of the house. The silver car disappeared into the distance as soon as she got inside the car, and Lucas returned to the South Block, halting when he spotted Irene standing dazedly in the yard.The snow was brief and light, but there was already a thin layer of snow on Irene's head and shoulders."What are you doing?!" He reached out to clear the snow on her head. "Isn't it cold out here?"She sobered and said, "Mr. Lucas, I saw Ms. Bennett. She is so pretty.""Did you stand here the entire time because you wanted to see her?" He dragged her back into the house."Not entirely... You are having dinner in the main block tonight, so I didn't have to make dinner. I got bored!" Her face and nose were red from the cold, and her skin began to itch once they went indoors."You are so stupid!" He studied her face and cursed, immediately regretting his words as soon as they left his lips. "If you catch a cold, who is going to take care of me?"She grinned

At four in the afternoon, the show started.The stadium could hold twenty thousand people, and almost every single seat was occupied. Everyone was holding red neon boards.Though Eric's agency did not announce that this would be the last live show of Eric's career, a small group of people still caught the news.After Eric finished performing his first song on stage, the audience erupted into deafening cheers, and Elliot felt as though his eardrums were about to break.He glanced at his family sheepishly, and Avery, who knew that he was afraid of noises, immediately pulled out sound-canceling earmuffs from her purse and put them on Elliot."You are the best, Honey." Elliot felt more at ease."I shouldn't have brought you along," Avery said in resignation."This is just right, Avery. I can hear very little with these.""You are definitely the first person to ever wear sound-canceling earmuffs to a concert." She chuckled."I wanted to be here with you and Layla. Besides, I'm kind

"Thank you," Eric said. "There will be dinner later. If it's okay with all of you, we can all go together."Avery glanced at Layla, and without another word, Layla turned and left.Avery and Elliot hurried after her."What's going on?" Ben mumbled. "Eric, are you and Layla fighting?""I'm sorry," Eric said apologetically."She was fine on the way here, and she knew that this was going to be your last concert. Is she angry at you all of a sudden because you started dating?" Ben was smart enough to figure it out on his own."I didn't want to upset her, Mr. Schaffer, but I can't help it," Eric said with resignation."I get it! Go ahead and celebrate!" Ben figured out the truth and left.Once they arrived home, Layla shut herself inside her room.Elliot stared at the table filled with food. He did not have an appetite. "Avery, what on earth did Layla talk to you about the last time she dragged you into her room? Are you two hiding something from me? Eric found himself a girlfriend

The smile on Irene's face disappeared. "Mr. Lucas, I'm done."She did not know Sam all that well, as he had been overseas the entire time and though he would occasionally return home during holidays, he had only come back once a year ever since he entered university.Before Lucas was brought back into the fold of the Woods family, Sam was the one member of the family who was willing to speak to Irene. She usually kept to the back kitchen, and Sam would often enter the kitchen to talk to her."Are you that scared of him, Irene?" Sam sat down on the couch. "Is he mistreating you? I can talk to Father...""Don't say that Mr. Sam. Mr. Lucas has treated me kindly." Irene realized that Sam was trying to divide her and Lucas. Since Lucas was hot-tempered, she did not want to be the person to trigger a fight between the two siblings."Is that so?" he asked suspiciously before turning to look at Lucas. "I heard that you are on bad terms with stepmother and that you had beaten up the second

When Robert was in Bridgedale, Hayden had taken Robert on a tour around the company and introduced Robert to his employees."The guys around Hayden aren't that old, and I recall seeing a few handsome guys, too," he said. "Sis, why don't you ask Hayden to show you their photos? Maybe you will like them."Layla did not want to continue the subject and turned to her older brother. "Hayden, do you hate women that much? You didn't have to hire only men, did you?""Don't listen to him," Hayden said not wanting to alert his parents. "I am not the one who hired them.""Then there is an issue with your HR. Why are they only hiring men? What are they plotting?" asked Layla."My HR manager is a woman," Hayden said, "don't listen to Robert."Layla turned to look at Robert. "Robert, you look slimmer, too! Is it from fixing cars?"Robert rubbed at his face and muttered, "... Maybe! But I'm certain that I didn't lose as much weight as you.""It's just because I'm tired from working." Layla re
