Manoban Family's Old House.

For the first time since the successive scandals with the Lee family rocked the entire nation, the main members of the Manoban family gathered together. Actually the rest was just waiting for Lisa to come.

V had been staying at the old house ever since Jieun's crimes were exposed to the public. He moved back because his own place was surrounded by reporters. The old house was more secure and safe.

While waiting for her eldest son to arrive, Chitthip was very nervous. She paced back and forth, looking like she was about to cry at any moment.

V sighed watching his mother. "Mom, don't be so nervous. Big Bro won't eat you or anything like that."

"I know that, son. But your big brother can be scary sometimes, you know. Just like your grandfather." She then cast a glance at her mother-in-law who was reading a classic book of poetry near the fireplace.

"Hmm. Indeed, our Lisa takes after my dear husband, your grandfather," Grandma said without taking her eyes off the book she was reading.

Shrugging, V put on his headphones and started bopping to the beat of the music.

Moments later, Grandma's assistant appeared and informed them, "Master Lisa has arrived."

"Oh!" Chitthip paled and became even more nervous.

"Chitthip, get a hold of yourself," Grandma snapped at her. "Don't you think it's ridiculous that you're acting so afraid of your own son? I know that you're feeling guilty but you don't need to act so afraid. He's your son, for goodness' sake! Didn't you say that you want to become strong?"

"I...I'm sorry, Mother."

"Aaw, Grandma. Don't be so hard on Mom. She's trying her best." V came to his mother's defense.

Grandma shot him a glare. "Stop coddling your mother."

"Come on, Grandma. Don't be angry at Mom anymore." V went to hug his grandmother and sweet talked her.

Even someone like Grandma was defenseless against her own grandson's oozing charm. She glared at him, but her expression already softened.

Finally, Lisa appeared carrying a fat grey cat in his arms. An orange cat was also perched on his shoulder. Two people followed behind him carrying cat stuff.

"What in the world?!" V exclaimed. "Big Bro, are you alright? I think maybe you should take a break from work or something. Too much stress is not good, you know. Stress can make even the sanest person a little bonkers. I'm also taking a break right now. Why don't you take one, too?"

Lisa looked at him without saying anything, and then decided to ignore him. He turned to his grandmother and mother instead, greeting them.

"Grandmother, Mother, I want you to meet the children of Jennie and I. The grey one is Lily and the orange...I mean the ginger one is Leo," he introduced the kittens with a straight face.

"Pft!" V couldn't take it anymore. He doubled over and started laughing, clutching his stomach.

Grandma's mouth twitched, but she was able to maintain a calm expression unlike her second grandson who was already tearing up from laughing so hard.

"Oh~ They're so cute~" Chitthip gushed and extended her arms, trying to get the kittens' attention.

Lily just stared at her, but Leo leaped from Lisa's shoulder into her arms.

"Mother, that's Leo, your grandson," Lisa told her in a serious tone. "This is Lily, your granddaughter. She's a little shy, especially to people she hasn't met before. She needs to get used to you first before she'll let you hold her."
