<.Havenshire, Felicia's townhouse.>
"Haa... We shouldn't keep you here longer, Rudy. Aren't you tired? You should go upstairs and rest. You'll be busy again tomorrow."
The elderly Mr. Walters' voice echoed in the lounge, his warm eyes staring at Ruediger who sat across from him. Mrs. Walters and Felicia hummed in agreement.
After dinner, they moved to the lounge to continue chatting. But not even half an hour in, the Walters family's patriarch told the young man to rest.
"The maid has cleaned up your room," said the kindhearted Mrs. Walters, smiling at Ruediger, "Don't be awkward. Isn't this your home too?"
Mr. and Mrs. Walters, Felicia's elderly parents, lived on the outskirts of the city, but they came today because of Ruediger's visit. The pair treated the boy their daughter raised like their own grandson, a bonus grandchild aside from Madeline.
He even called them 'Grandfather' and 'Grandmother'.
