Chapter 279
\nA Flash Marriage Can Be A Treasure novel Chapter 279<\/p>\n
They are scurrying around in the diner until past ten o\u2019clock when all the snacks and home-made red wine are out of stock.<\/p>\n
Chloe pours several cups of barley tea and divides them to everyone. After that, she nestles herself in Coffey\u2019s arms like a clingy siren, \u201cHubby, mom is so tired. It\u2019s inappropriate to let her cook later. Let\u2019s have lunch in a restaurant.\u201d<\/p>\n
Lily takes a sip of the tea and frowns slightly.<\/p>\n
She always has a sense of foreboding that something will happen between Coffey and Chloe as their relationship are improved way too smoothly.<\/p>\n
Daisy fails to remain her composure and says to Chloe, \u201cDear, you two haven\u2019t had an engagement. How can you address him \u2018Hubby\u2019? Don\u2019t be fooled by Coffee\u2019s blandishments.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cIt\u2019s okay, mom.\u201d Seeing that her mother-in-law-to-be is at her side, Chloe gets on cloud nine. She explains timidly, \u201cWe have gifted each other a token of affection. It\u2019s like we have had engagement.\u201d<\/p>\n
She continues, \u201cNext year, when Coffee is not that busy with his study, we will get married and have our child! Mom, I will give you three cute grandchildren!\u201d<\/p>\n
Daisy beams, \u201cGreat, great. Dear, don\u2019t get yourself tired. If you don\u2019t want to film movie, you can just give up. I\u2019ll give you all the money I earn in the future.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cGee! Mom, aren\u2019t you impartial?\u201d Lily chimes in and asks deliberately, \u201cCan\u2019t I use your money?\u201d<\/p>\n
Daisy shifts her gaze onto Lily upon hearing her words, \u201cOh, I almost forget your presence. Look at yourself, your younger brother is going to marry next year, what about you?\u201d<\/p>\n
Lily retorts, \u201cThere\u2019s no progress in Joey\u2019s relationship either, isn\u2019t it?\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cAt least Joey has her boyfriend! But you\u2019re still single!\u201d Daisy adds with dissatisfaction, \u201cI don\u2019t mean to urge you to get marry, but you should try to start a relationship. At least you may not feel lonely.\u201d<\/p>\n
Lily lowers her head to drink the tea.<\/p>\n
She\u2019s not lonely at all. To top it off, she received a gift for engagement. Should she tell them about this?<\/p>\n
Seeing Lily\u2019s reaction, Daisy continues, \u201cWhy don\u2019t you speak? Aren\u2019t I right? Or are you still hung up on that Mr. Smith and turn your nose up at other men?\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cNot so.\u201d<\/p>\n
Daisy glances at her with an \u2018I understand you so much\u2019 and \u2018I was right\u2019 look.<\/p>\n
Chloe can\u2019t help putting in good words for Louis, \u201cMom, Louis is good. He\u2019s handsome and rich. I think he\u2019s a perfect match for elder sister.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cHandsome men are always good at deceiving women.\u201d<\/p>\n
Lily and the others are quite speechless.<\/p>\n
\u201cMrs. Daisy, seems like you have so much complaints against me.\u201d Louis appears from outside of the store with something in his hands and a helpless look.<\/p>\n
\u201cHow comes you are\u2026\u201d Lily wants to greet him out of subconsciousness, but thinking of her mom\u2019s presence, she sits back into her seat and swallows the unspoken words.<\/p>\n
Daisy throws a few glances at Louis and says, \u201cMy daughter liked you and brought you to my house. I made noodles to entertain you. But look at how you treated her later? She suffered from high fever for three days and almost died of it. This alone can be a strong reason for why I have such complaints about you.\u201d<\/p>\n
Daisy is a weak woman. But women would always become stronger when they have children. She wants to protect her own child. Back then, she had a good impression on Louis, but since Lily\u2019s high fever last time, she grew resentment against Louis.<\/p>\n
Louis walks in with gifts in his hands and apologizes sincerely, \u201cYep, you\u2019re right. I was young and ignorant, and therefore had done something wrong. I should bear your complaints.\u201d<\/p>\n
Daisy sneers.<\/p>\n
Louis smiles and hands her the gifts, \u201cI heard that making new dishes and red wine is one of your hobbies, so I asked someone to bring me some ingredients from abroad. You can try these later.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cAre you trying to bribing me?\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cIf I want to bribe you, I won\u2019t use these small gifts.\u201d Louis continues, \u201cI like the dishes you make and hope you will make it better and expand your storefront. Thereafter, you can hire some employees and what you need to do is just to count money. You\u2019ll be happy if you can afford your grandchild\u2019s powdered milk, right?\u201d<\/p>\n
Daisy is bewildered. This woman is dressed in brand-name clothes and looks elegant, seeming to be the lady from a rich family, \u201cI am. Are you coming for my daughter?\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cNo. I come to visit you.\u201d There seems to be tears in Yuna\u2019s eyes. She hastily takes out her handkerchief to wipe them away, \u201cI heard that Lily\u2019s mother opened a diner here and I came to have a look.<\/p>\n
Daisy is a bit baffled, but she still invites her to come in and pours her a cup of barley tea.<\/p>\n
\u201cThank you.\u201d Yuna holds the cup, smiling at Daisy, \u201cYou\u2019re gentle and generous and has given her a good upbringing. She\u2019s beautiful, wise, and capable.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cOh, you flattered me. It all depends on herself.\u201d Daisy ponders for a while before asking scrupulously, \u201cMy daughter has been by my side since her birth. To top it off, I discharged from the hospital with her in my arms after the birth. So she\u2019s definitely my own daughter.\u201d<\/p>\n
Yuna is stunned for a moment, \u201cYou misunderstood it. I know she\u2019s your biological daughter.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cThen\u2026\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cDo you know that your daughter is dating the president of the Smith Group?\u201d Yuna chokes with sobs, \u201cI\u2026 I\u2019m his mother. So I come to have a look.\u201d<\/p>\n
She doesn\u2019t dare to bother Louis and Lily, so she can only choose to come to Daisy.<\/p>\n
\u201cTurns out you\u2019re Louis\u2019 mother.\u201d Daisy becomes even courteous after knowing her identity, \u201cI haven\u2019t prepared well to entertain you. What about us coming out to have lunch?\u201d<\/p>\n
Yuna hastily presses down her hand, \u201cNo need to be so courteous. I just want to have a chip chat with you.\u201d<\/p>\n
Daisy sits back into her chair.<\/p>\n
Yuna wipes her eye corners, \u201cI have been recuperating abroad due to my poor physical condition. Louis was young when we separated with each other, and he might have forgotten me. I came back home this time. But I have no idea about how to compensate him. Please don\u2019t tell Louis and Lily about my visit today. I don\u2019t want to ruin their good mood.\u201d<\/p>\n
Daisy nods in agreement as she knows that Yuna has her own difficulties. She says, \u201cBut you are the mother and son. Even if you have separated with each other for long, your son may be missing you all along inside.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-2216","chapter","type-chapter","status-publish","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/nirvanaharapan.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/chapter\/2216","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/nirvanaharapan.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/chapter"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/nirvanaharapan.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/chapter"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/nirvanaharapan.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2216"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
