Alice tried to find a way to break the news to Zirui was was now striding their way. There was not even an inkling of foreboding on her face and the girl had no idea what she was about to hear. Slipping the letter into her purse, Alice stood in front of Aunt Nyra and the old man before going to Zirui.
Just then Adam came running, his face full of panic. When he noticed that Alice was walking fine, but there was a troubled expression on her face, he immediately understood that something was wrong, though not with the baby but he had no idea what it could be.
Zirui and Shantao reached Alice at the same time and using thks, Alice immediately smiled and said," I can't believe that you are still so worried that you followed me here." Saying this she held Adam's hand and then turned to Zirui and said,"Zi ai. You need to go sit in the car. It seems everyone is late and people have still not been seated inside. It is too stuffy."
