By the afternoon, Vanessa had already met most of the Kyle family's members. Everyone was very friendly to her. The only person she had yet to meet was Julien's father, Kevin. He was also the former chairman of Rovio Corporation Inc, who had dominated the business industry his entire life.
Kevin finally returned in the evening.
Julien introduced them to each other. However, Kevin's attitude was rather cold. He only nodded at Vanessa and Lawrie without saying anything. Lawrie snuggled into Vanessa's arms and dared not look directly at Kevin.
"Mommy, I'm scared." Sitting at the dining table, the apathetic look on Kevin's face was a stark contrast to the rest of the family. Lawrie was so intimidated that he wriggled in Vanessa's arms and grabbed her clothes tightly. It was as if Kevin would eat him alive.
Vanessa comforted Lawrie in a soft voice, "I'm here, Lawrie. Don't be scared."
Lawrie shook his head, saying, "But you're scared too, Mommy."
Vanessa was flabbergasted.
Why was Lawrie so observant? In fact, she was not afraid at all. She was just a bit nervous!
Karen noticed Vanessa's and Lawrie's uneasiness. She nudged Kevin with her elbow and whispered in his ear, "Can you stop putting on a serious face? Let me warn you, if you scare my daughter-in-law and grandson off, I won't forgive you."
Kevin frowned and said to Karen in a low voice. "How could Julien secretly have a child with someone and only bring the child home after so long? For so many years, a member of the Kyle family had been left wandering around. Am I not allowed to be upset at Julien?"
Karen was speechless. "Of course you can. But can you not wait until after Vanessa and Lawrie leave? I'm warning you one last time, don't you dare scare them off."
Kevin did not intend to scare Vanessa and Lawrie at all. It was just that he was extremely displeased with Julien. How could Julien be so brazen as to have a son outside and not take care of them? As a result, Vanessa and Lawrie had to suffer so much alone.
Kevin felt that Julien had failed as a man. Therefore, Julien did not deserve any mercy!
"Dad, Mom, I plan to stay in Chatterton Town for a month. Are you alright with that?" Silvia asked happily. After being married to Jayden for years, Silvia was already familiar with everyone in the family. Kevin was no exception. Hence, Kevin's haughtiness could no longer intimidate her.
"Of course we are!" Karen replied with a smile.
Silvia had taken the initiative to greet Kevin respectfully. No matter how unhappy he was, he couldn't keep a cold face. His expression softened as he said, "This is your home. You can stay here as long as you want. You don't have to ask for permission."
Jayden stepped on Silvia's foot under the table and gave her a warning look. "Did I agree that you can stay in Chatterton Town for so long? I'm going back to Madison City. Don't even think about staying here alone."
However, Silvia turned a blind eye to it. She picked up her spoon and scooped some food for Larry and Lawrie. "Our precious little Larry and Lawrie are here. While they are not attending preschool yet, I want to spend more time with them. It's none of your business."
Julien knew his father well. Although Kevin was very strict toward him, Jayden, and Lionel, he would never make things difficult for the women in the family. In the Kyle family, the women's position was not to be challenged. No one would ever dare mistreat or reprimand them!
Upon hearing Julien's assurance, Vanessa felt more relaxed. "Mrs. Kyle, can you please lead the way?"
Carrying Lawrie in her arms, Vanessa followed Karen to Kevin's study on the second floor. Kevin's expression was much softer than before. Also, there was a hint of kindness on his face. It didn't seem that he was going to cause her trouble. She took the initiative to greet him, "Hello, Mr. Kyle."
Kevin nodded at her, being cold as usual.
Vanessa then told Lawrie, "Lawrie, greet your Grandpa."
Instead of greeting Kevin, Lawrie hurriedly hid behind Vanessa. "Mommy, he doesn't seem to like me. I don't want to play with him."
Karen rolled her eyes at Kevin. "I'm seriously dumbfounded by your behavior, Kevin. I've just told you not to put on such a serious face. Look, Lawrie is so scared that he doesn't even dare approach you. Do you want Lawrie to shun you just like how Larry does?"
Kevin tried his best to relax his expression. After that, he grabbed a toy car that he had bought for Lawrie and bent down to the child. "Hey Lawrie, I've bought this toy car especially for you. I hope you like it."
"You won't kidnap me, would you?" Looking at the toy, Lawrie was very tempted. But he was also worried about being kidnapped by his grandfather. Hence, he dared not let his guard down. Still standing behind Vanessa, he asked, "Is this toy car really for me?"
