When they came out of the Research Institute, Natalie saw her mother waiting by the car outside.
''Mother, what are you doing here?'' Natalie was surprised to see her.
''Daniel told me you were here so I came to pick you up for our lunch date.'' Solace replied.
Daniel moved over to stand by Solace's side and placed his hand over her shoulder, pretending to be playful as he squeezed her shoulder.
''You should have told me you were coming here. I would have moved back my schedules so that we can have lunch together. I am after all, Natalie's legal guardian.'' Daniel's face was a little twisted.
''Mr. Song likes to joke around, this is lunch date between a mother and a daughter. There is no need for third wheels.'' Solace said as she also faked a smiled.
''Well, I still have something I need to attend to, so I will leave you two to it.'' Daniel said and kissed Solace's cheek before going to his car.
