James and Lily weren't deaf or blind-they both noticed Ivan suddenly barging in..

Lily’s face went up in flames. She scrambled off James's lap so fast she almost tripped, wishing she could crawl
under the dining table and disappear.
James, on the other hand, shot Ivan a cold, disdainful look. “Who told you to cin? Out.”
Taking in James's frustrated, unsatisfied expression and Lily’s mortified blush, Ivan quickly realized he might
have just ruined a moment,

Grace bristled immediately at having her past revealed in front of everyone, giving Henry a fierce scolding.

Henry, still healthy in both body and mind, was deeply offer led at being called senile.
