Harper raised her eyebrows and handed the bag to William. She couldn't force a smile and greeted us.
I looked at the embarrassed expression on Albert's face. He didn't even know how to place his hands. I couldn't help but roll my eyes.
I wondered, "If my mother were still alive, she would have slapped William. However, she is no longer with us. She left behind a large sum of money, which allowed William to live a life of extravagance."
Albert said, "Harper, William's mother is gone. William is a good kid, but we spoiled him. When you get married, you can ask him to do whatever you want. If he dares to disobey you, tell me. I will punish him."
After dinner, we sat around the coffee table and ate fruit.
Albert looked down on Harper's behavior of being a mistress, but he couldn't ask William to break up with Harper. Albert thought, "I need to accept this. I am trying to be nice to Harper. If both my children have a good future, I will be happy."
Harper looked at the luxurious decoration in the house and was satisfied. She nodded and said, "I know."
Albert nodded and asked William to peel fruit for Harper.
