The First Time They Met Again

"Good morning, Grandma, Aunt Ma and... Liliana."

Old Madam Shen and Madam Ma returned Asher's greeting. Liliana was pulled out of her trance. Blinking her eyes, she stared back at her former husband.

Liliana really didn't expect to bump into Asher today, especially when it was still early in the morning. He was supposed to be at the office. 

"...good morning."

Asher looked at Liliana a moment longer before he withdrew his gaze. Unlike her, he had known about her appearance this morning. He heard it from the maids the other day.

But, Asher didn't come to the ancestral home this morning to meet Liliana. His main intention was to greet his grandmother on the day of her birthdate.

It seemed like his grandmother would spend the day with her. She even rejected her friends' invitation to play mahjong and have lunch together.
