Chapter: 4358
Edwin loosened her apron and affectionately pinched her cheek, remarking with a smile, “It'll be lively over there tonight."

The mansion buzzed with activity that evening as nearly all the younger members of the Fowler and Evans families had gathered.

Due to his scandalous new relationship, Leonel appeared unfazed about revealing his leg issue, but he still tried to walk steadily when he got out of the car.

Observing him in that state, the servants felt a pang of sympathy.

Although they wished to assist him, Leonel dismissed their offers.

“It's unnecessary. I can manage on my own."

Despite the difficulty of each step, he successfully made his way from the parking lot to the living room without any help.

By that time, nearly all of the younger generation had arrived.

The presence of the children added to the already bustling Living room.

Upon Leonel's arrival, Evelyn dashed over joyfully, seizing his hand and addressing him as "Daddy." Meanwhile, Daniel, engrossed in his book, greeted him politely without rising.

Leonel looked at him and affectionately tousled Evelyn's hair before settling onto the sofa.

Ollie darted around his feet.

Rena emerged from the kitchen with her own blend of scented tea.

Observing Leonel seated there with his hands clasped on his knees, Rena couldn't suppress a surge of emotion.

After a moment, she mustered a faint smile and encouraged, “Start with some tea. Dinner will be served shortly."

Olivia approached Rena to lend a hand.

Rena handed a cup of tea to Leonel but hesitated to leave. With a somber tone, Leonel whispered, "Thank you, Mom."

Hearing him calling her mom again, Rena felt even sadder.

Overwhelmed by tears, she excused herself to the bathroom to calm herself.

The atmosphere in the living room became awkward.
