When Lennox received a call from his wife that her Uncle Reese had requested a meeting between them, he knew he should come prepared. He knew Reese Zhao was overprotective of his niece and would allow anyone to have her hand in marriage without going through him.
Lennox expected that he was already on Reese Zhao's bad side because he married Adrienne without the older man's permission, but he was determined to make amends and gain Reese's approval. He understood the importance of family and wanted to show Reese that he was committed to taking care of Adrienne and making her happy. He planned to approach the meeting with respect, honesty, and a genuine desire to build a positive relationship with his wife's uncle.
