Mia Lane wanted to make him breakfast one last time; it was her wish. The opportunity was right in front of her, and she didn’t resist it at all. She glanced at Justin Kingston; his face remained calm, his deep gaze revealing no emotions, as if he didn’t resist either. So, Mia Lane entered the kitchen. Gigi and Dolly exchanged looks, smiling crescent-shaped smiles, and Aunt Zhou was also very happy. "Please sit down, Master Gigi and Miss Dolly." Aunt Zhou then said to Justin Kingston, "Mr. Kingston, please take a seat first; it’ll be ready soon." In the simple yet stylish dining room, Justin Kingston accompanied the children to their seats. The children were well-behaved, refusing to touch the food in their bowls before the noodles were served. "Daddy, the weather is nice today, isn’t it?" "Did you sleep well last night?" Outside, the father and the children were chatting softly. Seeing the smiles on the children’s faces, Justin Kingston began to reflect; perhaps hating their mother wasn’t right? Should he change weekly visits to anytime visitations? Justin Kingston was experiencing a quiet change inside, yet he was unaware, still using the children as a shield. Mia Lane poured warm water into the stir-fried tomatoes. As the water bubbled, the steam misted her eyes, and a sense of bitterness spread in her heart again. "Ma’am, you can add the noodles now," Aunt Zhou quietly reminded her. Mia Lane glanced sideways, "..." and quickly turned her gaze back, putting the noodles into the soup. Aunt Zhou felt sad, having just seen the tears in her eyes. The term ’Ma’am’ pierced both their hearts. "Ma’am," Aunt Zhou couldn’t help but ask, "why did you leave with Anton Miller when Mr. Kingston was critically ill and still under resuscitation?" "..." Mia Lane’s body stiffened. "Mr. Kingston cares about this question," Aunt Zhou sighed softly, "he can’t figure it out." Mia Lane looked at the noodles boiling in the saucepan, "He’s going to get married, does the answer matter to him?" Aunt Zhou didn’t know. That was something between the two of them. Follow current ɴᴏᴠᴇʟs on N0v3l.Fiɾe.net With the wedding date approaching, it was unknown if there was still room for maneuver. Mia Lane picked up the chopsticks and a bowl, carefully fishing the noodles out, "Has he not taken stomach medicine? Is he still relying on nutritional supplements?" Aunt Zhou remembered the scene she saw that morning while cleaning the room— Tiny pills scattered everywhere, the pill bottles crushed. She later asked Mr. Kingston if he wanted her to clean up the pills? Mr. Kingston’s answer was: Throw them in the trash can. But Aunt Zhou couldn’t tell Mia Lane, fearing it would sadden her. "I don’t know," Aunt Zhou said, "I only know he’s been relying on nutritional supplements, rarely entering the dining room." Looking at the noodles in her hands, Mia Lane forced back her heartache, pressing her lips together. Carrying out the tomato and egg noodles, Mia Lane gently placed the bowl in front of Justin Kingston, and set down a pair of clean chopsticks. "Thank you." He looked up, gazing at her face from a short distance. She didn’t look at him, "You’re welcome." Then she sat down beside him, with the children seated opposite. "Yay! We can have breakfast now!" Gigi was thrilled. Dolly was happy too, "Daddy, try it quickly! Mommy’s tomato and egg noodles are unmatched! You used to love them the most!" Hearing this, Mia Lane’s chest tightened slightly. Justin Kingston picked up the chopsticks, the aroma whetted his appetite. The breakfast Aunt Zhou made was abundant, with more than a dozen varieties including porridge, eggs, sandwiches, shrimp dumplings... The breakfast was twice as plentiful as before, carefully prepared by Aunt Zhou, making Mia Lane feel like a distinguished guest. Justin Kingston ate the noodles elegantly and silently, not making a sound. The noodles had a unique taste; he ate each bite attentively, memorizing every moment. After breakfast, Gigi spoke up, "Mommy, the kindergarten teacher recently gave us a task that requires both Daddy and Mommy to complete together!"
