Reborn With Infinity System Points, I Create the Strongest Universe! Chapter 147 -147-Lilith’s Reason for Sadness

Reize wiped the wine from his face, glaring angrily at Walter.

But then he froze, noticing Walter’s expression—one filled with complexity, shock, confusion, and a touch of embarrassnt!

Reize and Magnar turned at the sa ti, and their eyes t Leo’s, who was smiling knowingly.

"It looks like you three are enjoying yourselves,"

Leo’s voice carried a hint of amusent.

Caught in the act!

The three of them imdiately bowed to Leo without hesitation.

"Greetings, President."

Leo had already subtly placed a barrier around them, ensuring that passersby couldn’t perceive anything unusual.

Magnar and the others, instantly sobered by the sudden situation, felt the alcohol vanish from their systems.

Reize cursed Walter inwardly,

"You just had to drink, didn’t you? Now we’re caught!"

Especially Magnar, who looked visibly upset.

He knew Leo had little patience for subordinates drinking during work hours.

This was especially true back when they were in Dalton Town...

However, Leo waved dismissively.

"It’s really not a big deal!"

"I just happened to see you all, thought I’d say hello!"

President didn’t reprimand them?

Reize was confused, but then his gaze landed on Hathaway, standing beside Leo.

To his shock, the two were holding hands!

Walter and Magnar also noticed this and felt a wave of shock.

The President... had a woman?!

"President, is this lady...?"

Reize, gathering his courage, stepped forward and asked respectfully.

For so reason, he felt like he had seen this lady before, but couldn’t quite place where.

Leo responded,

"This is my wife, Hathaway. She is also Lilith’s biological mother."

Boom!

These words were like a thunderclap, leaving the three of them frozen in place.

It took a while for them to regain their composure.

They quickly straightened up, bowing deeply to Hathaway, their voices filled with solemn respect.

"Greetings, madam!"

Hathaway seed slightly unaccustod to this title, pausing for a mont before elegantly nodding in acknowledgnt.

"Alright, drinking occasionally is fine, as long as it doesn’t interfere with work,"

Leo waved his hand again, not elaborating further, and took Hathaway’s hand as they walked toward the President’s mansion.

The three of them stood there watching their retreating figures, filled with deep emotions.

People with families were truly different...

Reize’s mind wandered for a mont, and he suddenly recalled his childhood mories.

The first ti he saw Hathaway, he was just a small child!

Years had passed, and now, this Lady Grey was still alive, though her deanor had changed completely from back then!

He cleared his throat, adjusted his collar, and said seriously,

"Well, I must be off now."

"My wife is waiting for at ho."

Before Walter and Magnar could react, he hurriedly left, his figure almost eager to escape.

Walter and Aragis looked at each other in confusion.

"Hmph,"

Walter snorted, crossing his arms.

"Won only slow down my swordsmanship!"

Magnar, who was nearby, nodded in agreent.

"That’s true."

"But my wife should have prepared dinner, so I need to head back. Would you like to join , Walter?"

"Get lost!"

Walter clenched his fists and glared at Magnar’s retreating figure, feeling like his dignified image had just been shattered.

...

At the President’s Mansion, in Leo’s Courtyard

Intermittent sobs could be heard coming from inside the room.

Lilith was clearly struggling to accept the fact that her mother had returned, only to leave so quickly.

"Miss, please stop crying... You haven’t had a good night’s sleep in so long."

"Just take a nap, and you’ll feel better when you wake up!"

Fiona, tucked inside the sleeve bag, couldn’t help but offer advice in a muffled voice.

Hearing Fiona’s words, Lilith grabbed her out of the sleeve bag without looking, and threw her toward the door.

"Be quiet! Leave alone!"

Smack!

Fiona tumbled through the air, landing on her feet, slightly dizzy.

But as she regained her bearings, she quickly sensed a familiar presence behind her.

"Hmm?"

"President! You’re back!"

Seeing Leo, Fiona’s eyes lit up.

Leo raised a finger to his lips, signaling for silence.

Fiona imdiately clamped her mouth shut with her paws and obediently moved aside.

Her eyes kept darting toward the woman who had entered with Leo, but the more she looked at her, the more familiar she seed.

It wasn’t until...

"Hiss! She looks so much like Miss Lilith!"

"Could this be the President’s illegitimate daughter, brought back to share Lilith’s inheritance?!"

No wonder Miss Lilith had been crying all this ti—it must be because of this!

If it were her, she’d probably feel the sa way.

Fiona felt a surge of anger, sympathizing with Lilith.

Her mind spun with various possible scenarios...

Leo turned to look at Hathaway, his gaze encouraging.

Hathaway gazed at the door where the sobbing ca from, filled with guilt and love.

She took a mont to steady her emotions and, with a hint of nervousness, gently opened the door.

Inside, Lilith was still imrsed in her sorrow, speaking without turning her head.

"I told you, don’t disturb ... I..."

Her words stopped abruptly.

She caught a glimpse of the familiar figure in her peripheral vision.

Lilith froze, her eyes blinking in disbelief.

Is this a hallucination?

She raised her hand and rubbed her eyes forcefully.

Seeing her daughter in such an adorable state, Hathaway couldn’t help but chuckle.

She quickly stepped forward, gently wiping away the tears on Lilith’s face, her voice filled with love and regret.

"My little star, don’t cry... Mommy is back, really back!"

However, upon hearing this gentle voice, Lilith’s tears only flowed harder.

She stared intently at Hathaway, a mix of stubbornness and questions in her gaze.

"Mom, can you tell why you left Father and ?"

This had been a question that had haunted Leo’s heart, and it was also the deep confusion hidden in Hathaway’s heart.

Looking at her daughter’s expression, Hathaway’s heart grew heavier.

At the sa ti, she made a silent vow—to give everything she had to make up for the father-daughter duo.

At that mont, Leo also walked into the room, his voice gentle and steady.

"Lilith, let tell you the reason."

"..."

After a long period of silence,

Lilith could no longer contain her emotions, throwing herself into Hathaway’s arms.

The barriers that had been built up for years lted away in that mont.

The family of three embraced tightly, and the room was filled with a happiness that ca from the long-awaited reunion.

Fiona silently watched this warm scene, her eyes filled with envy.

So it wasn’t like I thought after all...
