27 BIG BRO

Alex and Scarlett made their way to the meeting room while continuing their conversation. After a few minutes of walking, they reached the door of the room, which Alex gently pushed open.

Inside, they found Lilia and the others getting ready to leave.

Seeing them arrive, Lilia's face turned from neutral to an annoyed expression as she looked at Alex.

"What took you so long? You were just supposed to fetch Scarlett. Why did it take so long?" she asked, a hint of irritation in her voice.

"Uh... let's just say there were some unexpected delays," Alex replied, scratching his head.

"What kind of delays?" Lilia inquired.

Just as Alex was about to use the excuse he had come up with on their way back, Scarlett interjected into the discussion, "Cut him some slack, Mom. He got me here, so that's good enough... It's already a big win that he didn't get lost on the way."

After she said this, she looked at him with a mischievous smile. Upon seeing her like this, Alex's lips twitched, but he didn't say anything.

"You are right," Lilia agreed.

However, upon hearing Lilia's agreement, Alex couldn't help but exclaim, "HEY!"

But just as he was about to defend himself, they heard someone knocking on the door, and Anna's voice came from behind the door, saying, "Madam Ava and Miss Amelia have arrived."

"Okay, we're coming," Lilia said before looking at her family and telling them, "Behave yourselves."

While the girls nodded, Alex yawned.

A few minutes later, the family went out to welcome the two guests who were waiting at the front of the mansion.

When they opened the door, they found two women.

One of them was Ava- Alex mother

She was a striking woman who looked in her early thirties, with long, jet-black hair cascading down her back, glistening like the night sky.

Her eyes were a brilliant shade of light blue, reminiscent of the clear, expansive sky. Her figure was both voluptuous and toned, a captivating combination concealed beneath her flowing black gown.

Over her dress, she wore an elegant black cape, its inner lining revealing a stunning shade of blue. She moved with grace and confidence, a captivating presence that turned heads wherever she went.

Seeing her looking so beautiful and young, Alex couldn't help but think, 'How can a mother look as young, if not younger, than her son and daughter-in-law?' Indeed, Ava appeared as young as Alex and Lilia, but that was normal in this world. The higher one's level, the slower they aged, and sometimes they even appeared younger as they leveled up.

In addition to her level and the fact that she aged slowly, both Alex and Lilia had problems preventing them from increasing their levels. So, it was understandable that they looked older, but it didn't mean they resembled their ages as well.

Beside Ava stood another beauty, Amelia Eswald, Alex's little sister, a striking young woman who looked in her twenties, her face radiating kindness and warmth.She had long, flowing black hair, much like her mother's, which framed her features perfectly.

Her eyes were a captivating shade of gray, adding depth to her gentle gaze. She was dressed in an elegant, floor-length gray gown that beautifully complemented her stunning eyes. Her figure was voluptuous, with large breasts and curvaceous hips that gracefully led to her prominent, shapely buttocks.

Before anyone could react, Ava approached the girls and hugged all four of them while speaking with a melodious voice, "How are my granddaughters doing?"

Ava hugged the girls tightly, to the point where Alice, managing to extricate her head, said, "We're doing just fine, Grandma, but that might change if you keep squeezing us so hard."

"Oh... oops," said Ava before releasing the young girls.

Just as things were about to return to order, Amelia, too, made her move. However, this time, it wasn't the girls who were the target, but rather Alex.

Before he could react, she embraced him tightly, shouting :

"BIG BRO!"
