"Is he with us right now?" the child grinned and nodded again. John Howard could not believe his grandson's abrupt choice.

"Dad, what are you two talking about?" both the child and the grandpa giggled and make a high five.

"Sis, I think from now on, you'll lose your battle with your child." Liane said laughing.

…

Clifford, on the other hand, is enjoying the scenario, little did he knew that Liane was observing him silently, then without them noticing she slipped from their table and called.

"Hi, yes, this is Liane Surey, yes the one who arranged that little game in the restaurant. How was our next plan? When will it happen?" the manager answered about the arrangement enthusiastically.

"We were already drafting the proposal for them, Mrs. Surey according to your suggestion."

"Don't worry, my husband has another luxurious private plane, and he is more than willing to let somebody use it so that either of them will not suspect that it is I who set them up. Besides, the budget is on me so don't worry. Just arrange everything according to their liking." The manager was overjoyed.

"We are doing our very best to make this plan possible and fun, Mrs. Surey…"

"In addition, I'll give you all a bonus if this gimmick will click and succeed." The manager was overjoyed.

The manager informed her that they will execute their 'plan' one of these days. After that she hang up and prayed that everything will go smoothly.

After an awkward hour, Gary approached them and whispered to his boss that he still have some meetings to do in Veanco. So he excused himself and bid farewell. Before he goes out, the child went over him and kissed him on his cheek, in turn he messed up the hair of the child. He has an urge to kiss the child but he restrained himself to make a scandal out of it. He knew Gary will have a heart attack if he saw him kiss a child on the cheek aside from his nephew.

Ingrid instructed her househelps to clean the guest room, get her parents things to and place it there. The family also decided to go and went to Veanco Square to tour Ingrid's parents after the househelps took her parents' things.

"Mom, do you know that Uncle Cliff also worked in Veanco? I was in his office and it was so vast you could see the whole city from there." When she heard it, her face became stiff and decided to have a heart to heart talk with her child.

"Clark, I want to talk to you regarding Mr. Clifford Briggs." She took her child from a distance and he let him sit in a chair saying with a serious tone. "I know you like him, son, but he isn't someone who you could just hang out with because he is a very, very busy man. Also, please I am begging you, stop saying that he is your father. It makes me sad."

The child sat there staring at her as if he understood what her mother had said. But the child could not stop what he thinks about Clifford, so he just decided not to oppose her mother's wishes. Ingrid was relieved when she saw that her child did not argue with her, as well as thankful that her child got her point. Ingrid's expression lit up upon observing her son's silence.

…

After they shop, they went home and the dinner is already ready to serve. Because Ingrid likes to eat at home and loves the ambiance of eating in it and not at the fancy restaurants. She also invited Lance at her house to join them at dinner.

When they entered the villa, her parents were astonished at her house.

"Is this what you acc.u.mulated, Ingrid?" her mother said in wonder.

"Fortunately, yes, it is, mom.." she said humbly.

"I am so proud of you, my dear daughter." Her father then spoke and scanned the room.
