Chapter 327: Boundaries
Raine didn’t know what to expect as she walked up to the front door of their house. She was sure that Nathan had something in store for her, but she didn’t know what exactly it would be that was waiting for her behind the door. Was it some kind of a surprise? Would it be something along the lines of him preparing something special for her?
Or maybe he actually meant what he said and that it was simply them having dinner as a family? Nevertheless, she didn’t really mind. She had already come to a decision to forgive Nathan the moment he did something noteworthy tonight. And surely, he’d be able to do that as easily as giving her a hug.
"It’s me."
Knocking on her own door, Raine announced her arrival before actually using her own key to the house. It was the proper thing to do. It would also give them a bit more time if they were actually preparing something fun for her.
"I’m opening the door now," she announced.
Turning the handle, Raine walked inside and had a look around. Nothing seemed to be out of place so far, but the eerie silence only told her that there was more to this dinner than what she had expected.
Just from that, she couldn’t help but feel excited.
"Hello? I’m already here," she called out. "If this is some elaborate prank, now’s the time to spring it."
Slowly making her way to the dining room, her nose could already detect the smell of something good and delicious. She pretty much knew that both Nathan and her father were waiting for her there, but she was feeling rather giddy at the moment. She wanted to have some fun with them, and it would serve as a bit more punishment for Nathan before she inevitably forgave him before the night was over.
