When Viktoria said those words, everyone in that dining room fell silent, with Lothur and Annaliese swallowing their saliva and Aiken and Mabel curiously watching her.
Viktoria then continued. "Lothur and I will begin living together in my residence from today. I want to make that clear so that there is no misunderstanding."
Aiken's jaw nearly dropped to his plate when he heard that, not knowing what to say or even think about his beloved daughter's statement.
Gulp!
As Lothur prepared to take a sudden blow, Mabel looked strangely at Viktoria and stood up from her chair. "What are you saying? What is the meaning of this? Why would you do something like that?"
Lothur continued beside his wife, feeling the cold approaching him. He then listened to his sweet wife. "Lothur and I are developing our relationship and have decided to act like husband and wife. We will not pretend anymore, mother, father."
