Summer Sutton entered the room and quickly headed upstairs.
Standing at the corner of the corridor, she listened discreetly to the commotion downstairs.
It seemed that Manuel Ink's parents had already come in.
Summer Sutton wanted to eavesdrop on what the Old Master would discuss with his son and daughter-in-law.
She feared that the old man might be idle and recently focused solely on Manuel Ink's marriage.
Pressed against the corner of the wall, her nervousness was evident on her face; while standing there, she anxiously twisted her clothes.
Manuel Ink stood not far away, quietly watching her like this, lost in thought for a long while.
The Ink Family's Old Master was discussing recent family matters with Father Ink and Mother Ink.
Initially, they were talking about everyday life, but suddenly the topic shifted, "Manuel is already in his late twenties, he should get married. What do you think?"
"Dad, this kind of thing is natural."
