Capital City, Old House of Hale Family
Brock Hale and his wife were called back to the old house temporarily. Old Sir Hale was warming a pot and preparing tea, while Old Lady Hale leaned back in the recliner, leisurely fanning herself with a palm leaf fan.
"Dad, you called us back here, is there something wrong?" Brock spoke only after sipping his tea.
"Have you heard about the Bell Family issue?"
Brock glanced at his wife, and Lily appeared utterly clueless as well.
Seeing his expression, the old man huffed, "The issue involving your son and daughter-in-law, and you don't care at all, is that how a father behaves?"
"So, what exactly happened?"
"It's just that there's news that the girl and..."
The old man briefly explained the situation.
Brock caressed a Zisha teacup by his side. "I haven't heard about this. How did the news reach you so quickly?"
"Your father's former business partner, who settled in Greenland, called especially to inform us," Old Lady Hale explained.
