Forty minutes later, at the Hiroshi family's home, as soon as Chris' car stopped, Merry opened the door and ran out.
"Father, Mother…!"
She exclaimed happily for a long time around the door, and the butler of the Hiroshi family was already waiting at the door.
When he saw her figure, he hastily stepped forward. "Oh, young lady, you are finally back!"
Merry stepped forward and hugged the butler tightly. "Uncle, I missed you so much!"
"Me too. Come in, everyone is here."
Merry suddenly beamed, and she ran into the living room. "Everyone I'm back!"
When she saw Jean's figure, Merry wondered if Lilia was also here.
At this moment, the originally quiet atmosphere in the living room was broken by her cheerful screaming and running.
Lilia stood up from the sofa, and walked two steps before she met Merry's figure rushing in.
"Sis Lilia, I miss you so much!!" Merry ran towards Lilia excitedly.
Then, a low warning came from the living room. "Merry, watch your manners!"
Samuel looked at the little girl's behavior with dissatisfaction. After living abroad for two years, why is she still immature?!
When Merry hugged Lilia, she didn't want to let go, and turned a deaf ear to her father's words.
Lilia smiled and hugged Merry back, patted her on the back, then looked at her carefully. "Merry, welcome home!"
The little girl's eyes reddened. "Sis Lilia, I really miss you. Do you still have the assistant position for me?"
When the voice came down, Samuel's voice was so majestic that it made Merry tremble. "Merry, watch your mouth!"
"Yes yes!" The little girl replied somewhat harshly, but actually she was afraid of her father.
At this time, Jean sat across from Samuel, pursed his lips and whispered, "You are too serious, Merry is young and lively, no wonder she is so excited."
Samuel raised his eyebrows and looked at Jean, pursed his lips and covered his mouth.
The little girl was very spoiled by her friends.
"Is my little Merry back yet?" At this moment, Erika's voice came in from outside the living room.
Merry shouted. "Mom, I'm here!"
On the day the little girl returned, she had added a lot of laughter to the lifeless Hiroshi family home.
A few minutes later, Chris' brows were carved with a touch of hostility that had just entered from outside the door.
As soon as he appeared, Jean discovered that something was wrong with him.
Samuel folded his legs and looked at Merry who was acting like a baby with Erika with helpless and affectionate eyes.
His eyes flickered and he glanced at Chris' figure. When he lowered his legs, his elbows supported his knees. "Chris, I'm sorry I asked for help to pick her up at the airport!"
Chris shook his head, his expression slightly restrained, but not a word came out of his mouth.
In such a situation, Samuel subconsciously met Jean's gaze.
After that, he said, "Let them exchange news first. Let's go to my room."
In an instant, the people went to Samuel's study one by one.
Currently, the Hartanto family's situation is not very optimistic.
In the living room, Erika takes Merry's hand and asks about her life in the past few years.
After Merry went abroad, she still missed the little girl.
Samuel was busy working, he still had to take care of all the affairs of the family, and he could not go out on a weekday.
Although she was not the biological mother, Erika has been raising Merry like her own since childhood.
After exchanging news, the little girl is still obsessed with being Lilia's assistant. She tilted her head seriously and asked, "Sis, can I still be your assistant?"
Lilia looked at her with a nervous look. Before she could speak, Erika had already made a sound. "Merry, haven't you discussed this matter with your father? Should we discuss it again?"
Merry bit her mouth when she saw Erika, and gave a long nod. "Well..."
After all, she had finished her studies, so nothing can stop her from becoming Lilia's assistant now!
...
As the clock approached twelve o'clock, Tom and Alex also came.
Seeing everyone there, Merry asked the maid to get her luggage.
She brought gifts for this group of seniors.
The little figure crouched in front of the suitcase for a long time, and then took out various items one by one.
A few minutes later, Tom looked left and right with a box of glasses in front of him. Then he looked at Alex's hand beside his. "Did you get the sunglasses too?"
Alex handed him the glasses case and explained with a smile. "Same but different colors."
Tom looked to the opposite side in amusement. "What do you think she will give to Jean?"
At this moment, Merry was sitting on the sofa next to Erika while scratching her face innocently.
Samuel opened his gift packaging, shook his glasses case, put his hands on the sofa beside him, then shook his head and sighed.
Jean's gift is the same, it's also classic sunglasses.
Upon seeing this, Tom turned to look at Merry, then said jokingly. "Are you a sunglasses dealer over there?"
Merry looked back at him with wide eyes. "No, gifts for brother Chris and sister Lilia are different."
"Brother Chris?" Tom immediately turned his gaze to Chris.
Then, Chris held the small game console in his arm with one hand, squinting at Tom. "What a look!"
The gift Merry prepared for him was very unique, and he loved it!
Tom looked at the small game console in his arms and played with the gift box again. "This difference is too obvious. Merry, after all, I am your brother who helped you become the girl you are today, which one is my present? Are you sure you won't give me something else?"
Hearing this, Chris immediately stretched out his leg and kicked him under the table. "How old are you, huh? Might as well extort a younger child."
When those words finished, Alex and Jean looked at Chris dimly.
Samuel didn't understand the story in it, but thought that Merry and Chris were closer, and didn't think much of it.
Feeling slightly in pain after he got kicked in the leg, Tom coughed softly and then smiled.
...
In no time, lunch was ready.
Since today was Samuel's birthday, the atmosphere at the table was full of joy. It could be seen that after Merry returned, Samuel had also become much happier, and more open.
After lunch, Samuel drank too many glasses of red wine, not even angry at Merry when he threw the cake in his face.
In the afternoon, when everyone was about to leave, Merry took out a small pink suitcase from her room and followed Lilia's footsteps.
"Hey, where are you going?" Samuel immediately looked displeased when he saw her carrying a suitcase.
Merry stood on the stairs with the suitcase, saw his face, and muttered, "Father, why do you keep getting angry at work!"
Erika hit the man's elbow and then looked gently at Merry, "Merry you just came home, do you want to go again?"
Merry nodded with a glaring face, saw Samuel's ominous eyebrows, and pitted her mouth.
After that, she lowered her head and walked step by step towards Lilia, pushing her small suitcase forward.
"Sis Lilia, this is the gift I brought for Lian. Please give it to him. I might not get to meet him in this life. You can convey to him that I, as his sister, will miss him forever!"
Samuel. "…"
Lilia. "…"
Everyone."…"
