My Secret Billionaire Husband-Chapter 2100 - 2094: We, the Parker family, aren’t lacking these, right?
As Lady Parker spoke, her voice started to choke. "Since that time, you haven’t come home to see me for a long while. Are you waiting for me to die before you return home?"
"Mom, what are you talking about?" Frank Parker frowned.
"I’m not talking nonsense," Lady Parker said tearfully, "every time I ask you to come home, you always make up excuses that you’re busy and don’t have time to come back. I know you’re still angry with me, and you definitely still resent me inside your heart."
"What do you expect me to do so you will forgive me?"
"Do you want me to personally apologize to Joanna Lawrence?"
"If that’s what it takes for you to forgive me, then I’ll go apologize to her. Just don’t ignore me like you do now, whatever comes may."
Listening to Lady Parker’s sobs over the phone, Frank remained silent.
"Frank..." Lady Parker cried again, "I miss you so much. Can you come home to see me?"
Frank tightened his lips, and after a moment, in the end, his reluctance gave in: "I’ll be back soon."
He hung up the call.
Frank sat in the car for a moment, then ordered the driver, "Take me back to Calm House."

An hour later.
Calm House. 𝑓𝑟ℯ𝘦𝓌𝘦𝘣𝑛𝑜𝓋𝑒𝓁.𝑐ℴ𝓂
"Mr. Ashton, you’re back."
After alighting from the car, the maidservants greeted him with respectful bows.
As Frank walked towards the hall, he asked, "How is Lady Parker?"
The maid paused, blinked, and then replied respectfully, "Lady Parker was resting just now, but she has guests visiting her, so she’s accompanying them now."
"Guests?" Frank paused in his stride and turned his head, "Who are the guests?"
"This..." The maid looked hesitant.
Seeing her reaction, Frank frowned.
At this time, Rowan, the family’s butler, came out from the hall.
Seeing Frank, Rowan quickly approached, respectfully greeted him with a bow, "Mr. Ashton."
Frank transferred his gaze from the maid and walked into the hall, "I heard we have guests?"
"Yes." Rowan, walking behind him, smiled and said, "Lady Parker is entertaining the guests in the hall. She sent me out to greet you."
Without asking further, Frank walked quickly towards the hall.
Upon entering the hall, he heard laughter and a familiar voice.
He paused in his stride, his face darkening instantly.
Seeing this, Rowan rushed to announce loudly, "Lady Parker, Mr. Ashton is back."
"Frank, you’re back."
At that moment, Lady Parker, who had been conversing with the guests, looked up. The joy apparent on her face as she saw her son was definitely genuine, given that she hadn’t seen Frank for quite a while.
Frank glanced at her, then turned to look at the other two people seated on the sofa.
His expression was stone-cold, "Didn’t you say you were feeling unwell, and dizzy?"
Lady Parker was taken aback; following his gaze, she realized what he was referring to and quickly explained, "Mrs. Kelloway and Rebecca are here to visit me. Look, these are all the supplements they bought for me."
Lady Parker picked up a gift box from the coffee table, "This Bird’s Nest and ginseng are all of top grade, extremely rare. Mrs. Kelloway said these are good for improving health, and brought them over especially for me."
"Our family, the Parker family, doesn’t lack such things either," Frank commented dismissively, "If you want to eat these, you can have them anytime."
Immediately after he said this, aside from Frank himself, the faces of Lady Parker and Lady Patrice and Rebecca Kelloway who were sat on the sofa, all changed.
