Scarlett Xavier responded with an "okay" but didn't give it much thought.
When she returned to the Griffin Family, she got out of the car with Julian Rhodes, and it was already completely dark outside.
Walking in the door, she saw Anne Everett, whom she had met just that afternoon, sitting in the dining room with Julian's elder brother, Liam Rhodes.
Today, Grandpa wasn't home, and Mrs. Rhodes was still upstairs, not yet coming down.
The aunts were in the kitchen preparing food, bringing out dishes to place on the table once they were ready.
Anne Everett's voice was endearingly sweet, sounding like a little girl next door in front of the Griffin Family brothers. "Big Brother, I haven't seen you for so long, I missed you! Why aren't June and my sister-in-law back?"
"June is in class; his mom will accompany him back in a few days."
"June must have grown taller by now; this is when he's growing the fastest."
