Chapter 134 – Meeting with Mother-in-law [1]
Kaden entered the meeting room with soft steps, his blood-red eyes watching with subtle amazement as he took in the different kinds of elements dancing around in such a harmonic way that he was almost tempted to just sit in the middle and enjoy this feeling.
That’s how comfortable and mystical the atmosphere truly was.
But Kaden couldn’t afford to do that, could he?
After all, from the moment he stepped inside, two pairs of eyes had locked onto him with an intensity that went beyond comprehension.
One was loving—the kind of gaze that lit up like a sky full of stars each time it found you, the kind of eyes that screamed affection without needing to say a word.
The other was... neutral but stern. Not hate, not love—just the cold, measured scrutiny one might give a passing stranger, the kind of look that says I see you, but doesn’t necessarily care what it sees.
And yet, there was a weight behind that second gaze, a heaviness that made Kaden apprehensive as he steeled himself and approached with calm, measured steps, letting each footstep echo through the room in a rhythmic way that matched the slow pounding of his heart.
Soon, he stood in front of them and took in the scene.
He immediately recognized Meris, who sat calmly at the table just beside her mother, wearing a blue-silver dress styled in a modern Victorian design, with matching jewelry that only enhanced her elegance.
She saw Kaden and smiled wildly, greeting him with a look that poured affection into him without needing a single word.
How did she do it, you’d ask?
