Julian took a seat beside Reginald while the girls were in the kitchen area.
"You are very capable to be able to obtain this many good things", said Reginald with an impressed expression.
Julian smiled, "Thank you, but this is only because I had long prepared to live off-grid. If I didn't go through faking my own death and continued to live normally, I would have been just as unprepared as anyone else".
Reginald didn't reply but understood what Julian was saying. Still, it didn't take away from how nice this apartment was.
He thought that he was living really well with his family now that he had all of the new furniture they brought back recently. However, seeing Rayne and Julian's place made his own feel very empty and cold.
"Dad, they even have electricity! Isn't it nice and warm with the space heaters?", said Ella from across the room.
