Chapter 258: Stella’s introduction

Because of the new development between Alex’s mother and Sara, their topic shifted to Celia, who was living alone in a big castle. Of course, Sara had asked Alex a few questions before introducing herself to his parents, so she didn’t mention ‘castle’ or any other fantasy terms.

However, Harvey listened to their talk as if he saw through all of Sara’s words.

His peculiar mood and understanding were so pleasant that Sara hadn’t paid too much attention. In her eyes, he was a good father that supported his son wholeheartedly.

Sara probably would’ve had a worse time with her mother-in-law if it weren’t for him.

“I want my sisters to introduce themselves too,” Sara smiled, excusing herself. She slowly stood up, then rapidly made her way upstairs.

After getting to the first floor, Sara sighed with relief. She formed a dazzling smile, then stepped into Alex’s room.

Her sisters looked much better.

Alex glanced at Sara, sighing with relief for her countenance told him everything, “Come. I will comb your hair too. There’s also something you must see, Sara.”

“Thanks,” Sara replied, taking Stella’s seat. She decided that all of them would share their introduction later on, in the same bed with Alex.

It would be similar to sisters or friends bonding as if staying overnight to have girly talks. But in a harem life, it would be different, for Alex would be here, and they surely would have a much different mood.

Stella looked at Sara, her golden eyes shimmering.

Sara glanced, then replied softly, “I will just give you one tip. Be yourself.”

“Ok,” Stella replied before going downstairs.

Alex and others stared at her, feeling a little worried, for Stella’s heart still wasn’t free of burden.

The events from the Avander World still weighed a little on her.

“Hello,” Stella whispered in her usual tone, which nearly put Alex’s mom asleep.

She then drew a chair closer to herself, taking a seat. She didn’t bring herself back to the table, staring at Alex’s parents with her beautiful eyes.

Harvey and Lavinia also stared back, absorbed in Stella’s mood.

Stella then whispered, “I’m Alex’s first wife.”

“Oh, first?” Harvey lifted his eyebrow, chuckling.

Lavinia rolled her eyes, “First wife! How could he take a marriage without us?!” She then whispered to her husband’s ear, “In what country is polygamy legal?”

Even though her son might’ve done something against the law, Lavinia was ready to take proper steps to save his ass, for she was his mother!

She wouldn’t mind selling her house and moving with him to a different country. Of course, Alex was already grown-up, but for how long? He also went bold and got four girls for himself, so he surely needed his mother’s help!

Harvey would work for money, and that would be it.

Of course, such a thing wouldn’t happen for marriage happened through the system and in a different world.

Harvey coughed, “Does it matter? As long as no one knows about it, we are fine.”

Lavinia squinted her eyes, no longer pressing on the subject. She then glanced at Stella, once again feeling somewhat appeased by this girl’s mood. However, Lavinia also recalled Stella’s tears.

Like her mother-in-law, Lavinia wanted to know the cause of those tears. If her son hurt the girl, she would have a proper talk with both of them at once!

It would be rude to just ask away, so Lavinia first asked a few simple questions, “Where are you from?”

“Mom hails from a tribe known as Fiatze. Father comes from the Deathwill Kingdom. I lived mostly with mom and in her house,” Stella replied with half-narrowed eyes and a soft voice.

Even though those names didn’t ring anything in Alex’s parent’s minds, they blamed their lack of geography.

Mom continued, “What’s your occupation?”

She couldn’t have asked those questions before because Sara’s introduction and her story had left too many emotions behind. But now that Stella seemed exposed and quite shy, Lavinia would use it as a chance to learn more about sisters.

Stella lifted her eyes, “Healer.”

“Doctor?” Lavinia corrected her daughter-in-law after coughing.

Stella added, “But I am smart, so for Alex, I can learn everything.”

“Why does she sound so convincing?” Lavinia whispered so that her husband would hear her.

Harvey replied casually, his eyes on Stella, “You and your sisters aren’t clear here. Do you wish to stay with us for a while before you get your own house?”

Stella nodded.

Harvey chuckled, “Alex’s room is quite big, but I don’t know if you all will find it comfortable here. I leave that to you, though. For now, since it might be hard for you to find a doctor job in a new country, I hope you will help us take care of the house.”

Stella nodded as her eyes flashed with the system message, “Ok.”

After introducing herself, she received rewards and the second quest. Her next mission was to actually become a good housewife, and learn how to cook, clean, shop, and do other stuff.

This quest seemed quite long and required Stella to walk a lot. But for Alex and her’s sake, she would go for it. It would also help her find a roof and still be with her beloved.

Those quests seemed like an excellent opportunity to challenge herself and whatever her father had imposed on her!

Stella’s lips curved up in a smile she had often shown Alex. But for this peculiar occasion, Alex’s parents had also been blessed with it.

While Harvey’s reaction remained neutral, Lavinia’s eyes widened, “Goddess!”

And with this, Stella’s introduction was done. She found a new path for herself, her parents also looked forward to her progress, and it seemed like they were fond of her, for Stella’s charm was indeed peculiar.

Anyone would like to take care of her.

And since they were Alex’s parents, Stella would gladly use their help and reciprocate their feelings.

She was particularly interested in Harvey, for her father had clearly never shown her a fatherly love.
