"Mr. Osvaldo," Penny called softly with her sweetest voice. The man beside her blinked and turned to her instantly.

"Yes, Penguin?" he replied, his full attention now on her. A small, dreamy smile tugged at his lips, revealing those deep dimples she secretly adored.

Mary’s jaw dropped. Barry froze mid-bite. Everyone at the table stared with wide eyes, except Darlington and Xavier, who both looked like they’d just been stabbed in the heart.

He could talk? He’s been sane this whole time?! And he still let him sleep in the same room as his daughter?!

Xavier felt his chest tighten. Was this how heart attacks began?

"Y-You’re..." Mary stuttered, her hands flying to her chest as if she was about to faint.

Osvaldo’s lazy golden eyes met hers. He didn’t care if she died. This woman has said the most nasty things about him, not that he cared. He’s heard worse.

"Relax. I don’t bite," he said calmly, clicking his tongue. He didn’t like people around him, but these were Penny’s people. If they made her happy, he’d have to behave. Mostly.

After all, he’d always been told, Family matters. It must matter so much to her, judging by how hard she had cried.

The triplets rushed to their mother’s side, trying to calm her down. 𝚏𝕣𝐞𝗲𝐰𝕖𝐛𝐧𝕠𝕧𝚎𝚕.𝐜𝚘𝗺

"Mother, please calm down." Kean said calmly. Barry held his wife too. He understood why she was shocked, but it couldn’t be to this level.

"Don’t look at me if I scare you," Osvaldo said gently. "Just stare at the floor and breathe through your nose. Ignore everyone. Ignore the noise. Focus on the tiles. The beautiful colours." His voice was deep, calming.

Surprisingly, she did. Mary stared at the marble floor, inhaled through her nose, and slowly, her breathing steadied. The maids around were impressed.

This man was truly the Adkins heir. The genius was not dead. He’s alive and well.

Barry was impressed. He was begining to like the young man seated so calmly before them all. It’s shocking how well composed he looks.

If only he knew the man seated there is a tamed beast. The only reason Osvaldo was calm was because of his penguin. He wouldn’t do anything to upset her.

He wanted to give her as much princess treatment as possible.

Mary still couldn’t believe it. Was this a prank?

"So... you really talk?" Barry asked, blinking in confusion.

"Hey Uncle Barry. I’m Osvaldo Adkins, your niece’s husband. Great to finally meet you," Osvaldo said with a smile so casual it could’ve belonged to a prince.

Xavier, however, looked like he’d swallowed a lemon.

"How long has he been sane?" he asked Penny directly, completely ignoring Osvaldo.

"It’s not constant," Penny said sweetly.

Xavier turned to glare at Osvaldo. "Then I assume you heard our discussion. I don’t want Penelope married to you anymore. That marriage was a mistake. It should be undone."

"I’m afraid I can’t grant your little wish, Mr. Bloodsworth," Osvaldo said calmly, tilting his head. Penny was his. His wife. His world. Even if the devil himself was her father, he still wouldn’t let her go.

Xavier’s eye twitched. Keal, standing at the corner, was impressed.. No one... no one... talked back to his uncle like that.

Except this so-called madman.

"Let’s save the serious talk for after breakfast," Keal said peacefully. He knew where this was going to. If no one intervenes they might get physical and that’s the last thing neither of them wanted.
