When the Wind is Sweet: The Fairy Tale of Mr. and Mrs. Lancaster-Chapter 785: Surprise

That first night when Auntie brought June to President Lancaster’s home, Rachel Sherman had called.

Of course, Auntie didn’t mention the incident with her ex-in-laws trying to take the child. She just told Rachel that Miss Turner visited June and then brought them over to stay here.

Rachel felt relieved, she had been worried that Mrs. Shaw might cause trouble...

That night, Rachel specifically called Faye Turner to express her gratitude, and Faye encouraged her to be cautious and stay safe.

So today, returning to Argent, the first thing to do was visit The Lancaster Family to pick up her child. Firstly, she didn’t want to trouble them too much. Actually, she also missed her daughter.

Chase Fletcher suggested, "Why not bring June back to our home tonight? Let Mom and Dad meet her. We’ll all be family sooner or later, and it’s good to get familiar. June isn’t a stranger to me now."

Since she was going to pick up the child and Auntie had been tired recently, Rachel agreed, "Okay." She would take care of the child herself.

"By the way, how’s your grandmother? Have you called her recently?" Rachel asked with concern.

"She was taken by her other grandson. Heard she’s better. She didn’t have any major health problems, just fainted from not feeling well emotionally." Chase felt that as long as she’s healthy, then everything is alright.

"Hmm." Rachel, having met Granny Hughes a few times, had come to deeply appreciate this kind and loving elderly lady. She felt Granny lived with clarity and wisdom.

As evening fell.

A Volvo parked in the courtyard in front of The Fletcher Family villa. The driver’s seat door swung open, and Chase Fletcher swiftly stepped out of the car. 𝘧𝘳𝘦ℯ𝓌𝘦𝒷𝘯𝑜𝑣𝘦𝓁.𝒸𝘰𝓂

He opened the back door and carried June out of the car, while Rachel followed him out, the sunset casting its beautiful glow over them, making them look like a blissful family of three.

With one hand holding the child and the other holding Rachel, they exchanged glances, their gaze connected meaningfully at that moment.

He grasped her hand tightly, his resolve to be with her as firm as his steps, as they made their way toward the living room of the grand villa.

Although Rachel willingly returned with him, the tension inside her lingered.

The location of this villa alone made ordinary people feel uneasy and apprehensive at every moment, truly giving a sense of stepping into the pressure of upper-class society.

"Welcome back home safely, Reporter Rachel Sherman!"

Upon reaching the door, voices rang out in unison from inside, and to Rachel’s surprise, there was even a banner! Grand and enthusiastic.

"Ta-da-da-da! Sis-in-law!" Kylie Fletcher, dressed in a white dress, emerged from behind the crowd with a large bouquet of fresh flowers, joyfully approaching Rachel—

"Welcome to The Fletcher Family! From now on, you’re one of us!"

With that, she handed the flowers to Rachel.

Dazed, Rachel held the flowers, moved to tears, her gaze slowly taking in every person in the house.

A round of applause erupted in the living room, everyone looking at Rachel.

Faces beamed with kind smiles, the entire atmosphere became extraordinarily gentle.

"Thank you." Rachel smiled sweetly and sincerely, filled with gratitude, "Thank you, Uncle. Thank you, Aunt. Thank you, sister. Thank you, everyone." Then she bowed to everyone.

The little June in Chase’s arms was over one year old now, wearing a pretty little dress, neither crying nor fussing, curiously looking around, finding everything here fascinating in her eyes.

Dressed in a cheongsam, Summer Hughes walked over to the door with a smile, and said to Rachel, "Come in and have a seat, we’ll be having dinner soon." Her voice as gentle as if speaking to her own daughter.

Then, she cast a kind glance at the child in Chase’s arms, "She’s so cute." She couldn’t help but praise, then reached out to hold the child, "Come, let granny hold you."
