Maggie’s eyes, still a bit red, met his.


    She sniffled and replied earnestly, “I believe in you.


    ”


    Sanford smiled triumphantly and nced at Karina.


    Karina huffed, “Alright, alright.


    I won’t be the viin here.


    ”


    Everyone burst into Laughter.


    Brian, drumming his slender fingers on the table, asked, “Sanford, when do you n to go abroad?”


    Sanford pondered, “I need to book tickets and check in with a friend about the marriage procedures over there.


    If all goes well, we should be able to leave before the new year.


    ”


    Brian nodded.


    “Wait for my message.


    Let’s have a get-together with Lyndon and his wife before you two take off.


    ”


    Brian’s remark caught Sanford off guard, but Sanford didn’t inquire further.


    However, Rosalynn voiced her confusion.


    “Why are you suddenly organizing a gathering with Lyndon and Tilda? Is this about the Fernandez family’s issues?”


    Brian took her hand and exined, “Lyndon is directly involved.


    He needs to be aware of it.


    It wouldn’t be right for us to handle everything and have him benefit without showing appreciation, right?”


    While this was one reason for the gathering, Brian also nned it as a surprise for his wife.


    “Speaking of Lyndon, I’m curious how he and Tilda are doing now.


    Has Tilda’s high school ssmate be a catalyst for their rtionship?” Karina asked with keen interest.


    Brian and Sanford looked puzzled and said, “Tilda’s high school ssmate?”


    The three women exchanged knowing smiles.


    Rosalynn exined, “Perhaps Lyndon has a rival for Tilda’s affection.


    ”


    When Lyndon and Tilda returned to the vi, Sheldon immediately noticed the mark on Tilda’s forehead and looked concerned.


    “Mom, what happened to your forehead?”


    “It’s nothing serious.


    I just bumped into something,” Tilda reassured him as she sat on the sofa and pulled Sheldon onto herp.


    “Does it hurt? I’ll make it better.


    ”


    Sheldon blew gently on Tilda’s forehead.


    Tilda felt a wave of affection.


    “Thank you, Sheldon.


    It feels better now.

    Sitted across from them, Lyndon intervened, “Tilda, take the next few days off.


    Rest at home.


    ”


    “Okay,” Tilda said.
