Doted by Many: I became the Top-Tier Celebrity!-Chapter 26: Acknowledging Family

May was scared she might pull off something big again, even her voice trembled slightly when she asked.

Tiana squinted her eyes, looking at the blue sky and white clouds outside, then smiled: "Meet my family."

Meet your family?

May was thrown into a whirlwind.

...

Tiana took a cab back home.

As soon as she stepped into the house, she saw her father sitting sternly on the sofa. His imposing presence made her halt in her tracks.

"Dad, didn’t you go to the company today?"

Seeing her return safely, Sean finally relaxed, but was still displeased: "Where did you go last night? Why was your phone off, why didn’t you come home?"

Even though he concealed it well, Tiana could sense his suppressed anger, and his worry.

She walked up to him, took Sean’s arm, and playfully said, "Dad, I was at May’s. You must’ve seen my Weibo updates, right? Her leg got injured, I’ve been taking care of her. My phone broke, I’m sorry I didn’t call you in advance."

Seeing her admit her mistake so obediently, the anger Sean had dissipated instantly.

He didn’t know why, since childhood, his wife never liked their youngest daughter, who had suffered a lot because of it.

Therefore, he tried his best to give her the best.

"So what’s with the rumor between you and Aiden Shaw?"

Tiana hadn’t planned on lying to him: "Dad, that’s work-related. Don’t worry, I won’t let myself get into trouble again."

Seeing the determination in her eyes, Sean realized that perhaps in the past he would have protected her, but now, he’s aged, and cannot accompany her for a lifetime.

Until the person who shields her from the wind and rain appears, she needs to stand on her own.

Eventually, he let her go: "You must remember, no matter what, home is always here, Dad is always here, understand?"

Upon hearing this, Tiana felt something flow from her heart, tightening her breath.

She suddenly felt very uncomfortable with this sensation, quickly stood up: "Dad, I’ll go to my room first, I’ve got to head out later."

With that, she dashed back to her room.

Sean watched her retreating figure, shook his head with a smile: "This girl."

Back in her room, Tiana couldn’t calm down; her heart beat rapidly, so fast, so fast...

An indescribable sensation surrounded her heart, only after a while did she gradually feel it—it’s warmth.

Warmth...

Tiana slowly looked up, seeing her own reflection in the floor-length mirror. Her cheeks were flushed red, and her beautiful eyes were filled with unease, fear, and helplessness.

Home...

Family...

Could the racing heartbeat be the feeling of being cared for?

So many years...

She’s been lonely for so many years...

This feeling was too long lost.

So long that she thought she was destined to be alone.

She looked at herself in the mirror—her face charming, eyes stunning—and after a while, she broke into a smile, as if the air in the room was filled with the scent of flowers, sweet and enticing.

This might be the first genuine smile she’s given since rebirth.

She had a home now.

This feeling, it’s wonderful.

In a cheerful mood, she leisurely took out her makeup kit.

Primer and foundation are indispensable.

She applied a face mask while contemplating in front of the mirror.

Meeting the family is quite significant.

Therefore, she needs to put on a proper young sister look; this family meeting must succeed, not fail.
