Joel put his arm around Mortimer's shoulder. Mortimer frowned. "Go away! I may be single, but I'm not lonely." Mortimer had just turned 30 last month and was only a few months younger than Blake. They'd grown up together too. The Ford family was in the technology industry, the Sawyer family was in the medical industry, the Sullivan family was in the legal industry, and the Hayes family was in education. The wealth of these families was almost on par—except that the Hayes family was slightly inferior—so they could play together.

Scott muttered sadly. "Why? Do you have another family?" Liam muttered, his eyes misty. "No. Not at all, Liam." "Then let's live together, Daddy. I want to wake up every morning and see both of you having breakfast with me. I don't want to wait two days before you visit me. I'm tired of always asking Mummy when you'll come to see me," Liam sniffled and continued. "Our teacher always tells us that a family is made up of a father, a mother, and their kids, and that they all live together. We aren't a real family because we don't live together. I love you both so much. Can't we live together and be happy?" Liam asked, looking at both Scott and me.

Don't carry your mistake around with you. Instead, place them under your feet and use them as stepping stone to rise above them.

They say that a family is the basic unit of a community. For Zac, family is everything. He could not ask for anything more. Having two set of parents and a lovely wife, with three beautiful kids who do not let them live in peace and keeps them up on their toes all day is what a family really is.Their house is a mess all the time and he and Helena cannot have enough time for themselves unless they visit Bulgaria, where every house staff was eager to take care of the three kids and the entire estate is their playground.

Just family. Just home.

She doesn't deserve you at all! "Enough!" Dad interrupted loudly, looking at his crude daughter in disbelief. "Adriana, how can you talk about your sister like that? She was disfigured because of you! And Jonathan is your sister's husband. How can you harbor such thoughts? If people heard this, the Lane family's reputation would be ruined!" Mom opened her mouth, seemingly somewhat disapproving. "I think it's fine, actually. Love is about mutual feelings, isn't it?" Hearing that, I could not help but laugh.

It was so weird seeing them here and like this , I could bever think that it would ever come to this . I didn’t want them to be here , I didn’t want to see my step dad here , I didn’t want anything to do with his family . We heard what happened to you and we thought that it was nice that we came in here to tell you how sorry we are after all your mom married our father and regardless of what might happen , you still going to get stuck here with us and somehow our step sister so we just wanted to tell you sorry , maybe if we didn’t hate you or treated like the way we did at first , then none of this would have happened .

“It’s who stands by you when storms come. It’s who searches all night to find you when you’re lost. It’s who fights with you but never stops loving you.” Grace wiped tears from her eyes. Even Jonathan looked moved, his usual stoicism cracking. “We have a weird family,” James admitted, drawing small smiles. “My dad and Uncle Nick. Aunt Lila who used to date my dad but now loves Uncle Nick. My mom who’s getting better. All the people who aren’t blood relatives but still care about me and Fleur.” He looked up, his young face suddenly wise beyond his years. “But weird doesn’t mean bad. It just means our family has more pieces than most people’s.”

After hearing Mom’s words, Nathan recoiled from me as if I carried a plague. Turning to the other media and bystanders, he raised his voice. "This is a family matter. We shouldn’t interfere. Her parents and husband are all OB-GYNs. Three doctors wouldn’t misdiagnose the fetus together. And if there really were an issue, the police would’ve resolved it at the station already. We’re talking about an unborn child here. Don’t stir up gossip or feed on someone’s tragedy." With that, he waved for his team to leave. His parting glance at me was laced with pure loathing.

"Emma, get everyone in the living room. I have something to say." Twenty minutes later, our whole family was in the living room, where I practiced violin and did homework and learned that family is people who never stop loving each other. Elena sat in the middle, like the head of the family, surrounded by the people she fought to keep together. Mom and Dad on the couch, Dad's arm around Mom, like people who are true partners. Uncle Lucas and Aunt Sarah in the chairs, happy after three years of marriage, like people who found the right person. Uncle Thomas near the window, at peace, having spent seven years proving people can change.
