Chapter 259.1
All of sudden, Dana and Kasser turned their heads around as they both had sensed the urgency in the steps of someone who came running in great haste. Out of breath from running, Eugene looked alternatively at her mother and her husband with a flushed look on her face. She felt relieved as the atmosphere didn’t seem very heavy around them.
Dana narrowed her eyes as she watched Eugene, catching her breath. ‘Look at her. Did she just come running thinking that I’ll be hard on her husband?’
Dana was left speechless while a laugh escaped her unwittingly from her mouth. It would be a lie to say she wasn’t disappointed at all. She knew deep down in her heart that it was only natural for a child to get married and start having a family of her own. However, it saddened her to think that she had missed her one and only chance in life to live with her, seeing her daughter grow into a woman.

“No, not yet.”
“Then you must be starving. I’ll go ask them to prepare lunch a bit earlier today.”
Dana gave her daughter a small tap on her forehead as she walked past her. Eugene laughed sheepishly at the thought that her mother had found out the reason why she had hurried.
Eugene went up to Kasser and took a seat right next to him on the sofa. “I’m terribly sorry. No one came to wake me up, so I didn’t know you were waiting for me this long.”
“I asked them not to.”
