The family of three sat down silently having their meal. For first ten minutes, no one talked occassionally glancing at each other's face.
Delphina who was dressed elegantly looked confident which greatly puzzled both father and son, normally she would try to stir things up because of her helpless situation whenever they met.
Both Bernard and Alan had experienced some version of it but right now, her face was peaceful while she slightly rose her chin signalling to them that she was content with the arrangement. She didn't even bother to ask her father why she called her here in the first place!
On the other hand, Alan began to get the sinking feeling in his stomach seeing her little sister like this. He always felt like he was bette than her, even when she exhibited better leadership qualities, he knew she was just a girl trying to get their father's attention. He was destined to be the heir no matter what happened!
