She paused for a moment, then walked quickly over, her gaze falling on Lizzie’s plastered leg.
“Lizzie, how did you hurt your leg?” She reached out, wanting to touch but hesitating.
The two sisters have always had a good relationship since they were young, so seeing her like this now, it really hurts.
Katherine was still worried, “With such injuries, can we still have the wedding?”
As soon as she said that, the atmosphere around us froze instantly.
The smiles on Emery and Glenna’s faces froze, and Colton also toned down his excitement.
Everyone’s faces turned a bit ugly.
Before, on the phone, I was worried that there might be someone around Katherine, so I vaguely mentioned asking her to take family leave to come back for the wedding.
The person is right in front of me now, no more worries.
Lizzie bluntly said, “Katherine, getting married was just an excuse to trick you into coming back for a family visit. I’ve already broken up with Theron, so don’t call him your brother–in–law anymore when you see him.”
She said these words in a light–hearted tone, but Katherine felt uncomfortable.

“Did you break up? Why? What happened?”
Lizzie didn’t want to say much, just summed it up simply, “He has someone else now.”
This sentence is like a stone thrown into a calm lake, causing ripples upon ripples.
Katherine’s face turned pale instantly, with fire burning in her eyes.
The joy of Katherine just coming home was dashed by this news, leaving her feeling heavy–hearted.
Lizzie didn’t want the heavy atmosphere–to continue, so she said loudly, “Come on, I’ll take you to pick up the car!”
Colton’s eyes widened, “Lizzie! You really became an advanced translator?”
The atmosphere suddenly livened up again.
“Let’s go buy a car now!”
Emery looked at his impatient look, and jokingly scolded him.
“What’s the rush!”
Colton immediately retorted, “I bought it now, so I can drive Katherine back! That way we can save money on two tickets!”
Emery was amused by his little scheme, then pretended to glare at him in anger.
“You little brat, you just bought a new car and you’re already driving it like this? Aren’t you afraid of tiring Katherine out! She’s been on a train all day.‘

Colton was looking at Katherine cagerly, with those hopeful eyes. Katherine felt like if she said no, Colton would burst into tears.
“But the money was Lizzie’s,” she looked at Lizzie.

Everyone looked at Lizzie, but Colton’s eyes were especially intense, making it impossible for her to ignore.
Lizzie chuckled and nodded, and Colton immediately cheered.
“Awesome!”
I walked into the courtyard, and a neighbor holding an enamel basin walked over.
“Hey, Colton, got yourself a new car?” The neighbor’s voice was filled with obvious envy.
Her gaze then shifted to the back and saw Katherine.
“Katherine came back to the city to visit? How many days can she stay at home?”
Katherine tugged at the corner of her mouth, showing a forced smile, “Five days.”
“Only five days?” The neighbor clicked his tongue, with a hint of regret on his face, “This vacation is too short.”
Katherine’s eyes flashed with a hint of bitterness, she nodded slightly and said, “Yeah, the boss only approved so many days, nothing we can do.”
A group of people chatted for a while, then they didn’t stay any longer and continued walking home.
Finally back to the familiar doorstep.

Katherine pushed open the door and saw the familiar courtyard and home, which made her temporarily set aside her worries.
Especially when his mother happily arranged for Colton to bring her luggage down and put it in the room, then went to arrange for cooking. his mood, influenced by his mother, also became joyful.
After Colton brought her luggage into the living room, she quickly walked to the corner of the room and placed the luggage on the table.
Untie the knot and start digging things out from inside.
It’s some sun–dried local specialties, all collected by Zusate Village villagers.
Glenna hurried over and gently held her hand.
“Don’t bother with these, just got off the car, tired huh? Come, sit down and rest your feet first.”
Katherine, however, seemed to ignore the advice and acted with an unusual sense of urgency. Then, she started pulling things out one by
one.

“This is for mom and dad, this is for Colton’s comics, this these two books are for Lizzie,” she handed out the items to everyone.
Glenna walked over with concern and gently placed her hand on her wrist.
“Katherine, don’t bother with these.”
“Just got off the car, it was a bumpy ride all the way, must be exhausted. Come on, sit down and take a rest, have a drink of water.”
