Chapter 209
Carlyâs son, Ronald, immediately jumped off the couch on his short legs and ran to the door. He tiptoed, grabbed the doorknob, tried to pull it down, and the door was opened.
Damian immediately ran inside. Seeing his mother, the child instantly ran over, hugged her mother, and shouted in a baby voice, âMommyâ¦â
Isabella hurriedly reached out and picked Damian up. She had taken care of her son since he was a baby, so she rarely separated from him. They had been separated for a whole day by then. As soon as they met, Isabella could feel how much Damian missed her.
Carly also noticed Adrian coming in. A trace of disappointment flashed across her amber eyes, but soon she smiled again. âAdrian, itâs you. Come in and have a seat.â Carly hurriedly stood up and went to make coffee for Adrian.
Isabella held Damian in her arms, frowned at Adrian, and asked, âWhy are you here?â
Adrian felt a little guilty, but he still replied honestly, âYouâve stayed at Carlyâs house for a day: ⦠Damian and I are worried about you.â
Carly picked up the kettle and felt relieved after hearing Adrianâs words.
Half a year ago, Adrian, looking almost identical to Damian, showed up at Isabellaâs house. Thereafter, he followed Isabella and Damian around every day. Carly was really worried that Adrian would be a bad person and that Isabella and Damian would get hurt.
At that time, Carly was afraid that Adrian harm Isabella and Damian, so she deliberately moved into Isabellaâs house for a period of time and stayed with Isabella.
They had known each other for more than half a year, and she finally got to know Adrian a little better.
Adrian was a good person.
Carly thought that if Isabella was willing, it would be good to marry this man. Isabella would be happy, and Damian would have a complete family with his mother and father who loved him.
However, Carly couldnât help but wonder what Adrianâs family was like.
They had known each for more than half a year now, yet they knew nothing about Adrianâs family.
If Isabella wanted to get together with Adrian, Carly reckoned they had to find out the situation of his family first. She had to make sure that Isabella wouldnât be troubled by complicated family matters or relationships.
âCarly, itâs getting late. Damian and Lare going home now. Donât worry about your husband. He is an adult and will know how to take care of himself,â Isabella comforted her sister.
Carly nodded. âOkay.â
Adrian didnât say anything and just watched them talk.
Carly saw them out, but when they arrived at the door, she finally couldnât help saying, âIsabella, donât worry about me all the time. You really should⦠Carly looked at Adrian and added, solve your own problems first.â
Adrian felt nervous and said in a hurry, âCarly, I will be good to sabella and Damian.â
Carly nodded. She looked at Adrian, hesitated for a moment, and then said, âWeâve known each other for more than half a year, so we know about your character, but your family backgroundâ¦

âMy family is very simple. They are ordinary workingâclass people. Adrian hurriedly said.
Carly nodded and said, âOkay.â
Adrian breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, he had prepared himself in advance.

Carly looked at Adrian and said. âAdrian, if you have time, could you arrange for us to meet up with your family later on?â
Adrian was stunned, but he quickly reacted and nodded. âOf course.â
Carly smiled and nodded. âGreatâ
They left the house and went downstairs together. Carly asked again, âIs your family a native of Hivalis?â
Adrian shook his head and said, âNo. Our hometown is in Alagua City, but we have always lived in Hivalis. Our family has a house in Hivalis. Itâs a school district house. Itâll be good for Danian later when he goes to school, but that house was bought any years ago, and it is now very shabby. The price of the house in Hivalis used to be very low, so our family could afford it. If itâs now, we certainly wonât be able to afford it. Lucky that we bought it years ago.â
Hearing Adrianâs words, Carly and Isabella were shocked that Adrianâs family had a house in Hivalis. But when they heard Adrian explain that the house was bought many years ago, they were not so shocked. The previous house price was indeed not as horrendous as it was now. Adrianâs family was really lucky
âSo are you going to live with your parents after getting married Carly asked.
Hearing this, Adrian was cautious. After thinking for a while, he replied, âProbably not. My parents have retired now. They prefer to go back to their hometown and live there. I donât think they will stay in Hivalis.â
âSo your mother wonât help you take care of the baby?â Carly asked.
Adrian found himself at a loss for a moment. After thinking for a while, he said cautiously, âDamian is more than three years old and can go to school. I can send Damian to school in the morning and take him to the company after school. When I get off work, I will take Damian home with me. At other times, I can take care of Damian and Isabella at home without my mother.â
Hearing this, Isabella was surprised. âYour company actually allows you to bring children along?â
Hearing this, Adrian nodded and explained, âYes. My boss is a nice person. I asked him before, and he said itâs okay.â Hearing this, Carly and Isabella looked at him with envy. They were envious that he had such an understanding boss.
Carly nodded. âThat works.â
Most importantly, she felt that Isabellaâs life would be more comfortable without the participation of her motherâinâlaw. After all, it was usually difficult for inâlaws to get along.
Then again, Carly thought of another point.
âWhy canât your mother take care of the baby? Does she have a bad temper?â Carly asked tentatively.
Although Adrian had a good personality and could take care of the child, what if his mother was difficult to get along with? Would she deliberately make things difficult for Isabella in the future? Carly was worried.
Hearing this, Adrian shook his head and said, âNo. My mother is very nice. Sheâs. My father and my mother got married for love. Theyâve loved each other all their lives. My father has always spoiled my mother and never asked her to do any housework, so she doesnât know how to ake care of children.â
Hearing this, Carly and Isabella were surprised again. Then, they became envious of Adrianâs mother,

Carly was even more pleased with Adrian after hearing that. Since Adrianâs father was so kind to his mother, his family should be good. If Adrianâs personality was similar to that of his father, he would also be nice to Isabella and Damian in the
future.
