Chapter 20 Ambush—Part 1

• It was an ambush. No, an intervention of some sort. Austin knew this as soon as he walked into the grand living room of his childhood home in Clarence Estate, and found not only his father, but also his aunt, Blake and Hadley, having a nice old chat over Earl Grey tea.
• Their nice old chat came to a screeching halt when Orlando dashed from his arms and ran straight to her grandfather's lap, screeching, "Gramps!" like the man was Santa Claus himself.
• "There's my favourite granddaughter in the whole wide world!" Lukas cheered right back at her, his large arms enfolding her small frame in a warm embrace.
