Chapter 933
Mrs. Stone smiled and said to her daughter, “So Sonny doesn’t like the perfume you’re wearing, huh? That’s alright. Let’s eat and not argue about it with a three-year-old.”
Elisa raised her arm to smell herself and recognized the subtle scent of perfume.
She remembered how Sonny had expressed his dislike for her fragrance. Since the child couldn’t identify it as perfume, others might mistakenly think she had an unpleasant odor.
“I won’t wear perfume anymore. That way, I can save some money too,” she decided.
Serenity chuckled and said, “Sonny was just being silly. Don’t hold it against him, Elisa. He’s still so young.”
“It’s exactly because he’s young that he was being honest,” Elisa replied.
She took Sonny’s comment about her scent to heart.
She was particularly fond of Sonny, yet it hurt her that he disliked her for her fragrance.
“Let’s dig in,” Mrs. Stone suggested cheerfully.
Having grown older, she chose not to wear any perfume, preferring to embrace her natural scent.
However, her daughter was still young, and it was normal for her to enjoy wearing perfume.
“Zachary, these are just simple dishes. I hope they’re to your liking,” Mrs. Stone said politely. The meals prepared by the chef were indeed unremarkable, and the vegetables were grown in her own garden.
Zachary quickly replied, “I’m not a picky eater. I’ll eat anything.”
Secretly, both Mrs. Stone and her daughter thought, ‘If you’re not picky, then no one is.’
Having once admired Zachary, Elisa knew his preferences well. She was aware that he was indeed a picky eater and a neat freak.”
He claimed he wasn’t fussy only because Serenity was present.
Throughout the meal, Zachary paid close attention to his beloved wife sitting next to him. He
From time to time, he served her food, and whenever Sonny glanced over, he would offer him some as well. The child was eating so heartily that he soon felt full. After finishing a satisfying meal, Sonny turned to Mrs. Stone and exclaimed, “Grandaunt Audrey, your food is delicious! It’s just as good as what Mommy and Aunt Ser make.”
Mrs. Stone picked him up joyfully, saying, “You should come to my house more often then.” Sonny nodded and replied, “I’ll come when Mommy and Aunt Ser do.” Mrs. Stone wrapped her arms around him affectionately, reminiscent of how she used to carry her younger sister.
“Sonny, remember my number. Whenever you feel like visiting, just give me a call, and I’ll pick you up for meals,” she said. Then, addressing Serenity, she added, “The same goes for both of you. You rarely come over; I’d love for you to visit more often in the future.”
She then noticed Zachary, who had been quietly watching her niece, and added, “Zachary, you can come with Seren next time you’re available.” Zachary shifted his gaze from his wife and replied politely, “I’ll definitely come whenever I can.”
He cast a glance at the stack of invitation cards on the coffee table. Noticing this, Mrs. Stone promptly said, “Seren would like to join me for the social gatherings.” From that brief statement, Zachary understood Serenity’s intentions; he realized that she was making an effort for him. He recognized that he wasn’t the only one putting in the work—Serenity was also changing and striving together with him.
