I reunited with my parents. Alison also liked her grandparents as soon as they met.
I was not an orphan.
My parents had been working abroad, so I had lived with my grandma since childhood.
After 1 landed, I changed my phone number.
I didn’t watch domestic news, but I still heard about what had happened between the Kaufman family and the Holman family.
“The arranged marriage between the two families seemed to have broken. Kristen Holman was at the hospital in the middle of the night.”
“The representative of the Kaufman family announced the end of the cooperation between the two families. The couple seemed to have separated.”
Unexpectedly, I was involved in the comments under the
news.
“Do you
remember? Back then, the Kaufman family and the Holman family planned to run a resort together. On the signing ceremony, Mr. Kaufman’s mistress showed up with their illegitimate daughter!”
“What a shameless mistress! They were getting married, yet she made a scene with a bastard!”

“Hey, did you forget? Kristen used to be Mr. Kaufman’s sister- in–law. I heard that so–called mistress was actually his wife!”
“Rich people have such chaotic relationships!”
I darkened my face and closed the tab.
The relationship between Antonio and me wasn’t a secret. However, in all these years, Antonio had never admitted our relationship to the public.
I didn’t know what was in his mind, but he had caused so much drama.
“Mom! Come here! Look at how high Grandpa lifts me!”
Alison’s laugh sounded. I walked downstairs.
My parents had been working hard for a lifetime. Now, they could finally take a break.
They liked Alison. They respected and supported Alison just like how they treated me.
Antonio thought I had lost myself because I loved him so much. He thought that was why I obeyed his custom.
In fact, before I was ten, I had traveled around the world with my parents, who were photographers.
With them, I had seen lions running on the prairie, bugs buzzing in the jungle, and wild people playing leather drums.
They had been respecting me since I was a kid, fostering my free and intact soul.
That was why I chose to respect Antonio’s custom after I

thought it through. I was ready to take responsibility for my choice.
It was just an unsuccessful relationship. I wouldn’t be upset for long.
“Dad, I also want to be lifted!”
I walked to my dad and opened my arms.
My dad really put down Alison and was about to lift me. However, my mom stopped him.
“You are not young anymore. Don’t hurt your waist.”
My dad smiled helplessly. But he still opened his arms and hugged me, my mom, and Alison.
“Whatever you say, my queen and my princesses.”
Alison laughed, her eyes curved. Then, she climbed up my dad’s shoulder like a monkey.
“Grandpa! Grandpa! Let’s go get the moon!”
“Sure! Let’s go grab a bigger basket in the storage room. A small one can’t hold the moon!”
My parents never putadamperon what we wanted to do.
They supported all Alison’s whimsical thoughts.
They wouldn’t break a kid’s dream by telling them that they couldn’t get the moon.
After only a few days, Alison had become more outgoing than she was at home.

My mom looked at me. Then, she asked me to prepare for the barbeque at night with her.
I showed up in a miserable state all of a sudden. But they hadn’t asked anything.
They only looked at me with love in their eyes.
They told me this was my home and that they would always love me and support me.
With their company, Alison and I were gradually cured.
Unexpectedly, Antonio still found us.
