?Chapter 418: 417 once bullied someone to tears, gentle and pitiable. Chapter 418: 417 once bullied someone to tears, gentle and pitiable. Facing his hard-headed boss, Assistant Law didn’t say more. Tim Payne rubbed his temples. “No arrangements for this afternoon?”
“Today is Chinese Little Year, and I thought you would want to go back to the family mansion to celebrate.”
In past years, due to his sister’s “passing,” even on New Year’s Eve, it was just a dinner gathering. This year, of course, was different; they would surely make it lively.
By the time he finished work and returned to the old mansion, it was noon. His grandparents had had lunch and were sitting in the courtyard soaking up the sun.

Zoe Payne laughed softly with her head lowered.

Zoe Payne looked out for her brother, clearing her throat to change the subject, “Mom, the fresh cut sunflowers you bought are nice, very pretty.”
