102 You Think You Can Fool Me?

When the car reached the doors of the Ming ancestral house, Reuben could hear loud voices coming from inside.

'I wonder what might have happened now?' He shook his head and stepped inside.

He was calming down his nerves for the most probable outburst that he might face from mother dearest.

"Calm down, dear. I'm sure that he'll be here in no time." 

Reuben heard a much older and scruffier voice as he walked inside the house.

'Father!?' 

Reuben blankly stared at the man who was hugging his mother, Renee, as he tried to cajole her.

He looked very much like an older version of Reuben but he had light brown hair and his age reflected in his wise eyes and wrinkled smile.

"Speak of the devil and there he is!" Felix Ming, Reuben's father announced when he saw his son standing frozen at the entrance.

"Hmph!" Renee turned her head away and ignored her son.

Reuben smiled at his father and then gestured towards her with his eyes.

'What's wrong with her?' He looked at his mom.
