Daisy looked at him awkwardly and said, "Atlas, if you don't want to go, I can find an excuse for you."
It's better not to let him clash with Winifred, the butler didn't say anything but she knew that this meeting was to introduce Winifred, and she didn't know what Mr. Drkov had in mind to want Atlas up there.
"No need, I'll go with you."
Atlas answered without thinking. Daisy was a little surprised, but then she smiled and said, "Okay."
Ten minutes later, everyone had gathered in Mr. Drkov's office, including Atlas and Daisy.
From the moment the two of them entered, all eyes in the room were on them except for Winifred, who sat next to Dalziel, a little nervous and speechless.
But her expression made Mrs. Nenito unhappy, this temperament was inferior to that little Daisy, and seeing her indifferent attitude, Mrs. Nenito was even more angry in her heart, these past few days she had been busy with Dalziel's wedding and had not punished Daisy yet, but today she was free and could pay more attention to her.
In the quiet atmosphere, Dalziel suddenly stood up and said, "Grandpa, mother, brother, sister-in-law, today is Winifred's first day as a daughter-in-law, we want to offer tea to the elders."
"Okay."
Mr. Drkov said indifferently, his eyes not looking at Dalziel.
He also did not mind, the corner of his mouth slightly raised, signaling Winifred to follow him to serve tea to each person.
When it was Atlas and Daisy's turn, he did not directly serve tea but said: "Brother, I must apologize to you first, I know Winifred is your fiancee, I also do not want to steal your lover, it's just that we were drugged, Winifred is pregnant, I am a man, I cannot be irresponsible, right?"
Atlas disdainfully did not answer but his two hands clenched, showing that he was very angry.
Dalziel deliberately mentioned this in front of him, she didn't want to see him sad so she kept saying: "You are a responsible man, the Drkov family has a son like you, it's something to be proud of, being drugged and pregnant before marriage, any man would want to hide it, but you dare to openly tell everyone, you are a real man, how many people are like you, I'm deeply moved when I hear it."
"Oh, I also wish you two a hundred years of harmony, eternal union, soon give birth to a precious son, oh my god, I forgot that the precious son is here, the Drkov family today is doubly happy, oh my god, you are an example for the next generations of the Drkov family to follow."
Daisy kept saying it over and over again, but some people couldn't hear it anymore.
"Daisy, what do you mean?"
Because Mr. Drkov was here, Mrs. Nenito held back her voice, but her trembling body betrayed that she was very angry.
"I was just praising him, is there anything wrong with that, mother-in-law?"
Daisy asked innocently.
Mrs. Nenito was angry but couldn't refute anything, Dalziel couldn't help but admire this sister-in-law, he had looked down on this woman for a long time, wherever he went he saw her protecting and sheltering Atlas, it seemed like she had feelings for him.
He wasn't angry at Daisy's sarcasm, instead, he hugged Winifred's waist and said in a low voice: "Winifred, you have to treat your sister-in-law well in the future, you know, and sometimes you have to take care of my brother, his legs can't walk and it's a bit inconvenient, whenever he needs help, don't leave him alone."
"I know," Winifred replied in a low voice, she was extremely unwilling in her heart, why should she take care of this cripple.
'No need. Atlas has me to take care of him, no one needs to worry, if you behave a little I will thank the heavens. Let me remind you, we like quiet, there is nothing to do, no need to bother us."
Daisy was reminded to stay away from these people hanging around her and her husband.
Dalziel didn't pay attention to this, asking in a non-threatening manner: 'Sister-in-law doesn't seem to like Winifred, is it because she is your brother's fiancee that you are jealous?"
Daisy laughed out loud: 'Jealous, Atlas doesn't care, why should I be jealous, on the contrary, I should thank her, thanks to her breaking up with Atlas, I have the opportunity to be the wife of such an outstanding man, I am truly grateful to you."
'Is that so, sister-in-law is quick-witted."
Danziel's eyes were filled with laughter.
'Alright, if you've finished serving tea, then everyone go back to your seats, I have something to say."
Mr. Drkov had heard enough of the back-and-forth conversation between his granddaughter-in-law and grandson, so he immediately spoke up to stop this fight.
"Dad, I wonder what you want to tell us?"
Mrs. Nenito glared at Daisy and then returned to the appearance of a virtuous daughter-in-law.
"Atlas and Dalziel are married now, so I want our family to live in harmony, the young must respect the elders, the elders must give in to the younger ones, I don't hope that there will be unnecessary disputes in this house, did everyone hear clearly?"
Mr. Drkov said in a serious voice.
"Yes, we heard clearly."
The five people present in the room all answered in unison.
"Also, from now on, those who have nothing to do during dinner must eat together, there is no need to eat separately."
This was what he wanted to say.
"Dad, we are fine, but Atlas..."
Mrs. Nenito looked at Atlas with hesitation.
Daisy wanted to speak for him, but Atlas spoke first: 'Whatever you say, I agree."
'Very good, Atlas."
