It was finally the weekend Edward intended introusing Annabelle to his parents, Edward had earlier texted Annabelle to get ready he'd pick her up in an hour. Edwards picked her up at the exact time as they drove to his house. There was silence throught out the drive,

Finally they arrived, as Annabelle and Edwards entered the grand mansion, Annabelle couldn't help but take in the opulence of her surroundings. The tall white building radiated a sense of power and wealth, intimidating the other buildings around it. The flower beds adorned every corner, their vibrant colors adding a touch of beauty to the already magnificent exterior. In the center of the compound stood a majestic water fountain, its cascading water adding a tranquil ambiance to the surroundings.

Annabelle had put a lot of thought into her appearance for this special occasion. She had spent hours in front of the mirror, carefully selecting a wine-colored gown that accentuated her figure perfectly. Paired with white heels and a matching bag, she felt confident and elegant. Her hair had been styled flawlessly, falling in soft waves across her shoulders. She had applied just the right amount of makeup to enhance her features without appearing too overdone. Annabelle was determined to make a lasting impression on her soon-to-be-in-laws.

As they walked hand in hand towards the entrance, Annabelle's mind was momentarily lost in her thoughts. The nerves that had been brewing within her were settling as she focused on the beautiful mansion in front of her. She couldn't help but feel a sense of pride walking alongside Edwards, knowing that he was the one who had invited her into his world.

The silence was broken by Edwards' voice, as he asked if she was ready. Startled, Annabelle was pulled back to reality. She looked up at him, his deep blue eyes filled with warmth and affection. "I am," she replied with a smile, feeling a surge of excitement and anticipation.

"You look beautiful today," Edwards complimented her, his voice filled with sincerity. Annabelle blushed at the compliment, feeling a tinge of happiness wash over her. She had put so much effort into her appearance, wanting to make the best impression possible.

They continued walking hand in hand, their footsteps echoing through the grand hallways. Annabelle couldn't help but marvel at the exquisite interior of the mansion. The walls were adorned with extravagant paintings, reflecting the wealth and taste of the family. The rich scent of flowers filled the air as they gracefully floated in vases scattered throughout.

As Annabelle and Edwards entered the sitting room, Edwards offered her a seat before turning towards the stairs. "Mother, I'm home," he called out, his voice echoing through the grand mansion.

A moment later, Serena Quinn gracefully descended the stairs, her presence commanding attention. She walked past her son and approached Annabelle, assessing her with her eyes. Annabelle stood up to greet her, feeling a mix of nervousness and anticipation.

"Good day, ma'am," Annabelle said politely, her voice filled with respect.

"Welcome," Serena finally addressed her, her voice warm and welcoming. "Feel at home."

Annabelle nodded, feeling relieved by Serena's friendly demeanor. She was grateful for the warm reception, as it helped ease her nerves. Serena proceeded to ask Annabelle her name, and she replied, "Annabelle."

"Alright, my dear," Serena responded with a smile. "Edwards' father will be joining us soon."

Mrs. Quinn engaged Annabelle in a light conversation, asking about her background and what she did for a living. Annabelle shared that she worked at the same company as Edwards, and Serena expressed her admiration for her hard work. She mentioned that she felt sorry for Annabelle about her family and praised her for being independent.

Serena opened up to Annabelle, sharing her concerns about Edwards' past relationships. She revealed that Edwards had never taken any of the matchmaking dates her husband, the chairman, had arranged for him seriously. Serena and her husband had worried that their son would never settle down and start a family.

Annabelle listened attentively, sensing the responsibility she now carried. She understood the importance of leaving a positive impression on Edwards' parents, especially Serena, who seemed genuinely interested in getting to know her. Annabelle hoped that her dedication to Edwards and her own aspirations would be enough to assure Serena of her commitment.

As their conversation continued, Annabelle couldn't help but steal glances at Edwards. He sat beside her, observing the interaction between his mother and his fiancée. His expression remained unreadable, though Annabelle thought she caught a flicker of pride and satisfaction in his eyes.

Just as the conversation continued a certain footsteps began approaching.everyone paused and turned to the direction of the footsteps. It was the chairman,Edwards' father. There was silence in the sitting room, Annabelle couldn't help but feel the tension.
