"But, seriously, I have a complaint." Lysandra continued.
"Huh?" Asher was confused.
"Why did you cheat on me with all these ladies here instead of making me happy?!" She spoke it out loud while pointing her finger at him accusingly.
Asher raised his hands defensively and countered her argument, "Wait, wait... what cheating? I never cheated on you!"
Then he realized something important and asked suspiciously, "Hold on... Since when was I ever in a relationship with you? I don't remember this happening or signing up to have my personal life monitored by you!" He frowned as he confronted Lysandra about her unreasonable claims.
Lysandra waved off Asher's words dismissively and replied with a huff, "Details, details. They are irrelevant since you already saw me naked; you have to take responsibility." She spoke while grinning, causing his face to twitch as he watched her wink at him flirtatiously.
'Seriously...' At the moment, he truly desired to roll his eyes after witnessing this shameless display and the audacity she exhibited by suggesting something outrageous like that.
"Giggles..."
Everyone burst out laughing, especially Maria and Eleanor.
Lysandra took this chance to pinch his face as she continued, "Anyway, you're lucky since this beautiful and perfect lady chose to become your woman. So you better treat me nicely, or else there will be punishment."
"Like hell, I will!" Asher exclaimed his displeasure without hesitation whatsoever because he hated to admit any kind of defeat and liked to be the aggressive one himself.
'She is simply kidding,' he thought.
Unfortunately...
Both of her friends looked at her speechless and became quiet at once, while Asher tried to suppress his chuckling as he watched them argue with each other.
'So troublesome.' Asher thought inwardly while secretly rolling his eyes after witnessing their antics. 'But their caring words and actions towards me make me feel really happy.'
Aria noticed everything, as she was a very sharp woman who knew how to read minds easily. Therefore, she understood her son's feelings right now. 'He's happier than usual. I can feel his delight clearly in his soul. Perhaps seeing so many loved ones around him, he's very happy.'
Asher stood there silently, patiently waiting for them to finish whatever bickering they were doing, until eventually he decided to speak out in a firm tone, "Now listen, everybody! How about I introduce you to the new member of our family, Lily, my little sister?"
After listening to such words spoken by Asher, everyone suddenly went quiet and shifted their focus on Lily, who blushed a bit after being stared at by everyone so intently.
"Aw! So Cute!!!" The whole group exclaimed loudly simultaneously while looking at Lily fondly. Even Olivia and Lysandra, who were fond of Asher more, squealed in joy upon seeing a five-year-old adorable angel with jet-black hair and blue eyes in front of them.
Lily tilted her head innocently in confusion as she failed to understand why these two adult ladies suddenly behaved like little kids.
"She looks extremely adorable!! I want to hug her right now!" Olivia expressed her desire outright, staring at the girl intensely and quickly hugging her.
"Same." Lysandra nodded in agreement, followed by Mia, who couldn't help but hug her too.
"Aaawwwww....!!" The three women hugged Lily tightly against their bosoms while taking turns. Lily couldn't breathe, and she struggled frantically. She felt very shy being surrounded by these women, as all these beautiful aunts and big sisters adored her to no end.
When Aria observed such a scene taking place in front of her eyes, she smiled in contentment, happy to see Lily receive love and affection from everyone, which she deserves.
'Yes. This is how relationships should be.' Asher thought, his expression full of happiness upon seeing the people around him care for each other and get along harmoniously.
Eventually, the whole atmosphere became lively, and laughter echoed throughout the Blake family garden.
