Right then, they were seated in the couch area. At the back was a room that resembled a bedroom, housing a large bed.

Alexander was indeed extremely exhausted, so once the plane had stabilized, he got up and went to the back. In no time, he fell into a deep sleep. Despite being in the main cabin, everyone tried their best to keep their conversations to hushed tones. "Why don't you go in and keep him company, Bella?" suggested David.

"Keep an eye on his temperature. I'm worried he might suddenly come down with a fever," Selena seconded in concern.

"Call us if you need anything." Evian chimed in.

Isabella nodded, rising to her feet and heading to the back. She could still hear David and Selena murmuring about their hopes that Alexander would truly be fine when they reached Yrinas before they began blaming themselves again. She knew that they still harbored guilt about Alexander's condition. Nonetheless, her mind whirred at warp speed.

I'm still not sure if David and Selena are to be blamed... Oh, I know! Since I'll be there, I can do some investigating. After all, I'm not close to them, so it's reasonable to suspect that they might have treated Alexander poorly in the past. I shall observe them closely. If everything's fine with them, then we're all family. But if there's something off about them... Hmph!

Finally, Isabella realized that it was exactly the flash of inspiration she had previously. Well, this is the correct way to use my buff!

The only reason she hadn't been suspicious was that the Quirk family had been too firm in their explanation and took the blame upon themselves unceasingly. But logically speaking, she should maintain a sense of skepticism toward everyone. After all, without the Gossip System, she couldn't possibly know whether the person standing before her was a friend or foe.

As Isabella opened the door and stepped into the room, she left behind three stunned members of the Quirk family and a clueless Callahan.

Alexander was asleep, so he naturally didn't hear anything. He only sensed a familiar presence drawing

near.

His sleep wasn't a peaceful one. He felt as though he was trapped in a silent and oppressive place. Such a sensation of being restrained by an unseen force left him with no means of escape.

As if in an attempt to fend off fear, his heart gradually hollowed out until he lost all emotion. But he felt very cold, and he didn't like the chill that reached deep into his soul.

Suddenly, there was a sharp pain at his collarbone.

Alexander jolted awake, only to be immediately met with a comforting warmth in his arms. The familiar scend lingered at the up of his nose, bringing about an indescribable sense of security Glancing down he saw Isabella in slumber, grinding her teeth against his collarbone.

Somehow, she developed a habit of biting him.

Originally, Alexander's face was as cold as frost because of the dream. But in an instant, his icy demeanor melted away, his eyes brimming with so much affection that it almost overflowed, just like a breath of spring air. He lowered his head and nuzzled the tip of his nose against Isabella's forehead before the latter loosened the clamp of her teeth on his collarbone.

Isabella initially came in to check on Alexander, worried about his condition. However, being in the air had a way of inducing sleep, especially during long flights. So, in her drowsiness, she fell asleep and ended up sleeping even more soundly than Alexander. Even in sleep, she didn't behave but burrowed into Alexander's arms continuously. That left Alexander with little time to think and could only do his best to maintain his composure. After all, they were on a plane, and his family was outside. He couldn't afford to let Isabella embarrass him. Fortunately for him, the plane was about to descend.

Once the announcement came, Alexander roused Isabella from her slumber.

While still groggy with sleep, Isabella caressed Alexander's face and asked in a mumble, "How are you feeling? Do you feel unwell anywhere?"

Yrinas' scenery gradually came into focus, causing the three members of the Quirk family outside the door to grow anxious again.

While waiting at the airport, Christopher and Rosalie also spotted relatives from the Quirk family who came to welcome David and the others. There was a considerable number of them, a grand and impressive lineup. There was even media personnel sneaking around, trying to get some photos.

Upon seeing Christopher and Rosalie, they all repeatedly asked if Alexander was really coming.

Although the two of them were worried, it didn't show on their faces at all. "He said he'd bring his wife to meet you all, so he's certainly coming."

Meanwhile, on the bed, Alexander was tickled pink by Isabella's dazed expression. He cradled Isabella's face in his hands and kissed her to prove that he was in perfect health and she had nothing to worry about.

When the Quirks saw Alexander and Isabella coming out all well, they breathed a sigh of relief.

The moment they all walked out of the corridor, they saw Christopher and Rosalie standing amidst a crowd, waving happily at the sight of them.

Everyone's attention was first drawn to Alexander. Seeing nothing off about his complexion, they all lamented inwardly. The last time he left this city, he was only eight or nine years old. Twenty years had passed then. Although they had seen Alexander here and there over the years, seeing him in their hometown held a different significance.
