The Lopez elders were consoling their daughter when a girly voice interrupted the parents daughter pair in their sweet moment, "Can I also get the chance to congratulate my sister?"

The voice of the lady was quite unfamiliar to most of them but only two people could recognize it the moment her words entered their ears.

Everyone turned their bodies towards the source of the voice...some with confusion lacing on their faces and some with a big smile.

"Who is she? Did you invite her?" Veronica asked in a whisper so that only Reuben could hear her.

Reuben shrugged his shoulder dismissively and replied, "I don't know her. However she is calling you as her sister so you should have known her, not me.."

Veronica was about to reply back when she was stopped by the scene enfolded in front of her.

Mr. James Lopez had walked towards the person and engulfed her in a fatherly hug as he exclaimed in joy, "Lisa! What a great surprise! How come you're here? Last time I called you two days ago, you were still in country Z.."

Yes! It was Lisa, more precise to say Mrs. Lisa Jones, the wife of Andrew Jones who had joined them in the party just right now.

"How could I not attend the engagement party of my lovely sister! After all, I knew how much it'd mean to her...

Moreover, it was enough of hiding as a shadow so I thought to reveal my actual face on a precious day like this." Lisa indirectly signaled about her identity to them.

Veronica who had furrowed her eyebrows as it trying to remember her, couldn't find any possibility of her meeting the new guest anywhere in the past.

So not to put too much pressure on her brain, she directly asked her father, "Dad, by the way of you greeting her, I can clearly get the idea that she is someone special to you. But how do you know her?"

Same question was running inside Mrs. Lopez's head and she too asked, "Yes honey.. Who is she?"

Before Mr. Lopez could reply, Diana chirped happily and introduced her to everyone present there happily, "She is Mrs. Lisa Jones. She is one of my best client in city Z. Sister Lisa also helped me to find a job in Lopez Industries."

Both Lisa and Mr. Lopez smiled at the excited Diana who hugged Lisa tightly.

Then something clicked in Veronica's mind and she exclaimed in shock, "Wait! Don't tell me you're the 'shadow' who was helping my dad in business from the past few years very secretively."

Lisa just smiled at her and Mr. Lopez replied on her behalf, "Yes, my princess. She is the one you were trying to find out about from the past few years."

Veronica squealed in joy like a kid and embraced her in a tight hug but was enough careful to not squeeze her baby bump as she said, "Oh My God! Finally I got the chance to meet you. Thank you so much for coming here."

Lisa smiled and said, "Congratulations little sis. I'm also very much happy to finally meet you."

She then looked towards Reuben who was scrutinizing her from top to bottom and said, "Congratulations to you too Reuben on your engagement."

Reuben gave her a faint smile and said, "Thank you very much. I'm happy that you have come to celebrate our important day so far from country Z."

He put a little more pressure while mentioning 'Country Z' as his eyes flickered on to her when she observed her side profile very attentively.

Lisa wasn't able to notice the slight glimmer in Reuben's eyes as he hid it well in a few seconds. So she just smiled at him and went to hug Mrs. Lopez.

"I've always heard of you Aunty from uncle but never got the chance to meet you. Now that I'm finally seeing you, I must say you're more beautiful than Uncle's description." Lisa said happily.

Mrs. Lopez laughed at her compliment kissed her forehead before saying, "You are also very much beautiful."

She then put her hand on Lisa's baby bump and asked, "Which month?"

Beamingly Lisa replied, "Seven months right now but will step into eight month next week."

Lisa then slowly talked with everyone and mingled up with all of them in just a short span of time.

Reuben finally shoved his different kinds of thoughts away and announced loudly, "It's the time for the next surprise guys. So let's bring it up."

Veronica squinted her eyes and asked and questioned him, "Please don't give me more surprises. It'd be tough for me to take anymore surprise in just a single day."

Reuben laughed at her and pecked her cheek before replying, "It's the last one, promise."

"Woah!! You guys are not even involving me in your surprises. Have I become so much distant from everyone in just few years?" A voice called them out from behind.

As soon as the person came into their view, Lucinda's breath hitched and a cold sweat ran down her spine as she quivered a little in uneasiness.

"Amy?" Mrs. Smith was the first one to break the silence.

Amelia smiled at everyone along with Mrs. Jones and replied, "Yes aunty. I'm finally back."

All of them smiled seeing her leaving only three persons who had adorned different types of expressions on their faces.

Lucinda was visibly tensed whereas Lisa just narrowed her eyes at her. But the most formidable expression was being carried by none other than Neil who clenched his jaw and tightened his fist the moment he saw Amelia.

While the elders were happy seeing Amelia, the youngsters were happier to see their Aunt Jones here after long time.

Even Lucinda and Neil were also delighted to see her after years. While Lisa was just watching her mother-in-law from a corner with tearful eyes.

Mrs. Jones' eyes filled with adoration for her children as they greeted her by a group hug. Her smile had widened when she received numerous pecks from her kids who had turned into a.d.u.l.t now...
