"Yes! Uncle! Stay for dinner before you leave!" "I want Uncle to stay and have dinner with us!" With the kids backing her up, Kristina Kingston’s smile softened even more. Justin Kingston and Mia Lane were also stunned, and Butler Shelby and Mrs. Zhou found it even more incredible. The lady has really changed... she’s completely changed. She is accepting everything that exists in this world. Anton Miller met Kristina Kingston’s gaze and, for a moment, didn’t know what to say. "Anton," she spoke up in front of everyone, "I’m sorry, Auntie apologizes for my previous childish behavior to you." After saying this, she bowed deeply to Anton Miller. Time seemed to stand still, the whole world quieted down. People around were looking in disbelief. Anton Miller’s thick eyebrows unconsciously furrowed. He looked at Mia Lane, then at Justin Kingston, what’s going on? She was forcibly driving him away just the day before yesterday. "Anton." Mia Lane eased the awkwardness, "My mom has apologized to you, you wouldn’t forgive her, would you?" She actually called her mom? Thousands of thoughts flooded Anton Miller’s mind, and he really couldn’t quite process it. But Kristina Kingston had completed her bow and was looking at him sincerely. "How about we eat first?" Justin Kingston put his arm around Anton Miller’s shoulder, then patted his mother’s arm, leading him to the dining room, "Come, try your sister-in-law’s cooking." And he hadn’t formally called him brother yet. Mia Lane smiled as she took Kristina Kingston’s hand, "Mom, let’s go too. I made your favorite sour and spicy shredded potatoes, see if it’s better than last time?" "Yay! Dinner’s ready!" Read full story at novel⦿fire.net "I can smell it from here!" The kids were very happy and bounced off towards the dining room. The awkwardness in Kristina Kingston’s heart eased a bit, she was very grateful for Mia Lane’s understanding. The dinner was abundant, and the soft lighting in the dining room, combined with the light luxury decor, made it feel very comfortable. The long dining table was set with nine homemade dishes, no delicacies, just some simple home-cooked stir-fries. Like stir-fried pork with chili, cucumber salad, fragrant dried tofu with wood ear, sour and spicy shredded potatoes, seaweed egg soup... These are all ordinary dishes, but all made by Mia Lane, and definitely taste like delicacies. "Take a seat, take a seat." Everyone sat down at the dining chairs, and the servants served them rice. Gigi and Dolly voluntarily sat beside Anton Miller, "Uncle, thank you for buying us gifts!" "Uncle, you’re so nice! I really love those gifts!" "I’m glad you like them." Anton Miller’s voice was gentle. The children’s excitement was evident, eager to finish dinner and unwrap the gifts. For this meal, Anton Miller felt a bit uneasy, he couldn’t quite grasp how he ended up sitting here. His mind was entirely a blank. And the one who felt the most unsettled was Kristina Kingston. She didn’t even lift her eyes to look at Anton Miller, a bit afraid, and inexplicably a bit guilty. He refused to forgive her... Apologizing to him in front of the butler, the servants, her son, and daughter-in-law, yet he didn’t respond. This was indeed awkward and left Kristina Kingston feeling a bit embarrassed. So for her, every minute and every second was awkward. Kristina Kingston didn’t say anything more, but Anton Miller took the initiative to approach her, "Congratulations on making peace with yourself." No address, tone relaxed. "And you?" she looked up and asked, "Have you made peace with yourself?" Anton Miller’s gaze was a bit cold and solemn, he didn’t know, maybe he wasn’t yet ready to reconcile. After all, the harm Kristina Kingston had done to him over the years was significant, starting from when he was just a child. She constantly suppressed him, trying every means to drive him away. So he particularly disliked this woman. Especially since this woman had also hurt Mia. "Anton." Mia Lane was extremely anxious, "Only by letting go can you gain a sense of happiness. No one can leave this world alive, so every day we live, we should be happy." Anton Miller’s lips curved lightly. He glanced at Mia, then looked at Kristina Kingston again, and finally extended his right hand to her.
