20 minutes later they limo had finally pulled up in front of the Agreste Mansion. Marinette could not believe how big it was, neither could her parents. Marinette got out of the limo followed by her parents and Adrien. Adrien turned to help Alison out of her booster seat and placed her on his hip so he could carry her. Adrien then told Gorilla to take Marinette's and Alison's bags up to his room so they could deal with them later. Gorilla nodded his head then grabbed the bags before heading into the house to take them up to Adrien's room. "Daddy is twis your howse?" Alison asked her father. "Yes, Princess. This is my home. And you and Mummy are going be living here too" Adrien told Alison. "We liwe hewe," Alison said as she looked between Adrien and Marinette. Marinette nodded then the three of them walked towards the door followed by Marinette's parents which had opened to let them inside. When the five of them were inside that was when Alison noticed someone standing on the stairs in front of them. "Daddy." Alison said. "Hmm." Replied Adrien. "Who twat?" She asked her father while pointing up to Adrien's Father who was standing in front of them on the stairs. "Hello, Adrien. Hello Dupain-Cheng family." Gabriel said with a slight nod to Marinette and her parents. "Evening Gabriel." Sabine greeted him. "Hello Father. I would like to introduce you to Alison." Adrien said taking a step towards his father as he walked down the stairs to the group. "Alison this is my Father, your Grandfather." Adrien said to his daughter. "Hello Alison, it is nice to meet you," Gabriel said to Alison. Alison looked at Gabriel unsure before burying her head into her Father's shoulder. "She is very shy Father," Adrien said to his father. Gabriel nodded at his son then looked over at Marinette. "It is nice to meet you Marinette."
"It is nice to meet you too Mr. Agreste," Marinette replied. "It is good to see you again Gabriel," Sabine said to him. "Likewise, Sabine. Please this way to the Dining room." Gabriel said then lead the group done the hall to the Dining room.
Once they arrived at the Dining room, they each took a seat. Gabriel sat at the head of the table; Adrien sat on his Father's left while Sabine sat opposite Adrien on Gabriel's right. Tom sat beside his wife while Alison sat in between Adrien and Marinette. Dinner was being served as they were talking. "How have you been Gabriel?" Tom asked him. "Well, I have been busy with the upcoming fashion line. What you and Sabine, how have you been?" Gabriel asked Sabine and Tom. "We have been good just busy with the Bakery." Replied Sabine. Gabriel nodded in understanding. Gabriel then turned to Marinette and asked, "Do you work in the Bakery to Marinette?"
"I mainly help out when it is busy or if we have a big order come in," Marinette answered. "And what of Alison?" Alison looked up when she heard someone say her name. "Gwandma says not a pwace for wittle giwls." She said. "We made a rule that she is not allowed in the bakery behind the counter or the kitchen without Marinette, Adrien or Tom and I" Sabine stated. "Seriously you told her that?" Marinette asked her Mother. "Yes. I did not want the same thing to happen to her. That had happened to you when you were her age." Sabine mentioned. "Fair point. That was an awful day." Marinette added. "What happened?" Adrien asked as he looked over to Marinette. "When Marinette was about the same age as Alison here, she used to help out in the Bakery with us all the time. We couldn't get her away from it. Then one day she decided to disappear on us, we looked around the whole house and still could not find her. Till we heard a scream come from the kitchen in the Kitchen. We had raced down to the Bakery and found her screaming." Sabine explained. "What happened?" Adrien asked. "Well, Marinette had placed her hand in a tray of hot oil that was cooling down before we threw it out. We should've known that she would climb up onto the bench to play with whatever was up there." Tom explained. "I thought it was a tray of water so, I had put my hand in it and didn't realise it had hot oil in it or even that the tray was hot until I put my hand in it," Marinette added on to the story. "I remember that day. That was the day when you called my wife asking if she could come with you to take Marinette to the Hospital while Tom stayed at the Bakery." Gabriel said. "Mummy silly," Alison said not quite understanding what was being said, all she understood was that her Mother had done something silly. "Yes, I was. Wasn't I." Marinette said with a smile towards her daughter. "I did not know that you and Mother knew Marinette's parents, Father," Adrien said to his father. "Yes, well your Mother Adrien was incredibly good friends with Sabine when they were younger," Gabriel told his son. "But if Mother and Sabine were good friends how come Marinette and I never knew each other when we were younger?" Adrien asked his Father as he looked between Marinette's parents and his Father. Marinette was wondering the same thing as well. But Gabriel did not answer his sons' question.
One Dinner was over, they moved to the lounge area to carry on talking about safe subjects that were not of the past. Adrien was still wondering about his last question that his Father had ignored. "What are you designing at the moment, Gabriel?" Sabine asked Gabriel as she and Tom took a seat on the two-seater sofa while Gabriel took a seat in one of the armchairs. Marinette and Adrien took the other two-seater sofa and Alison sat on her Mother's lap. "The designs that I am designing at the moment are for me Winter line." Gabriel said. "wike Mummy." Alison said as she pointed to her Mother. "She said that because she knows that Marinette also designs." Sabine said clearing up the confusion that crossed Gabriel's face. "Mama," Marinette said to her mother as she could feel a blush rising on her cheeks. "That is right you are the one that won my hat designing competition." Stated Gabriel. "Yes, that was me." She replied blushing once again. "Your daughter is very talented from what I saw with that hat she had designed." Gabriel said to Sabine and Tom. Marinette's parents had a proud smile on their faces. "What else do you happen to design Marinette?" He asked her. "Well, I design all of my clothes and the purse that I carry with me. And now I am designing clothes for Alison here." She said. Adrien knew she loved to design but did not know that she designed her purse or her clothes. Adrien was impressed and he could tell that his Father was extremely impressed as well. "Mummy down," Alison asked her Mother. Marinette helped Alison off her lap and watched as she walked towards her Grandfather. Alison walked slowly towards her Grandfather Gabriel. When she was near him, she put her arms out signalling that she upon his lap.
