Chapter 1863
Aldor couldn't help but burst into laughter this time.
Keegan glared at him. Aldor, smiling, said, "This kind of reminds me of when you and Mrs. Kane first got divorced."This implied that everyone had turned against Keegan.
Keegan kept quiet.
Ultimately, Aldor still ended up taking Keegan to Cordelia's house. Of course, Cordelia had been joking earlier. How could shenot welcome her grandson home for dinner?
Baldwin was waiting at the door for Keegan. As the car came to a stop, he walked over, opened the door, and said,” Aldor, wait amoment. Mrs. Kane Sr. wants to speak with you."
Surprised, Aldor stayed nonetheless.
Chandler had been on a business trip a few days ago where a severe flu outbreak occurred. Unfortunately, he caught it andcouldn't make it back home.
Cyrene, still holding a grudge against Keegan for calling the police on Jackson, didn't make an effort to come over and pretend toplease Cordelia, especially with her husband away.
Fearing Cordelia, Dahlia chose to celebrate at Blake's place instead.So, only Dahlia, Keegan, Aurora, Baldwin, and Corrin were there.
Still upset with Keegan for kicking her out yesterday, Aurora deliberately ignored him. She immediately turned around to play withher phone as soon as she saw him.
Cordelia, looking energetic in a new outfit, came downstairs. Upon seeing Aldor, she warmly greeted, "Aldor, you're here."Aldor nodded politely. "Mrs. Kane Sr., is there something | can help you with?"
“Have a seat first," Cordelia said with a smile, "We'll talk while eating.”
Aldor glanced at Aurora and thought, ‘She wouldn't be setting up a blind date for me with Aurora, would she?’
Then, he said softly, "Mrs. Kane Sr., my mom is still waiting for me at home for dinner. If it's not an emergency, can we talk aboutit tomorrow-"
"Aldor."Before Aldor could finish speaking, he suddenly heard his mother's voice.
He was taken aback, thinking that he might have misheard. But when he turned around, he saw his mother wearing a beautifuldress appearing behind him.
"Mom?" Aldor was shocked. "Why are you here?"Cordelia smiled and said, "| asked someone to bring Mrs.
Hart over. It's such a meaningful day today and | figured that we should celebrate it together. Mrs. Hart, I'm sorry for not tellingyou the purpose of inviting you over today. Please forgive me."
Aldor's mother, Sylvia Palmer, was initially a little worried, but when she heard that Cordelia had specifically invited them over fordinner, she instantly felt relieved.
When she received the phone call, she thought her son had made some huge mistake at the company.
Sylvia quickly said, "It's fine, it's fine. Please don't call me Mrs. Hart. Just call me by my name, Sylvia Palmer."
Til just call you Sylvia then, is that okay?" Cordelia said with a kind and gentle expression that would easily make people droptheir guard.
Sylvia nodded. "Of course."novelbin
She quickly handed over the things she brought here, rubbed her hands, and awkwardly said, "It was too sudden, and | didn'tprepare any gifts. So, | brought some specialties of my hometown. | made all of these myself. The packaging doesn't look nice,but it tastes delicious. P-Please accept them."
Cordelia looked at Aldor.
Aldor's initial surprise at seeing his mother in Cordelia's home quickly shifted to a composed expression.
He did not show any expression when he saw the specialties packed in supermarket plastic bags, but when heheard that his mother made them herself, a hint of heartache flashed in his eyes.
Cordelia looked away and smiled. "Please don't say that. Nowadays, everything is mass-produced by factories. It's difficult to findanything homemade now. | think it's a very precious gift. Thank you so much."
Sylvia, taken aback, thought, ‘Despite her wealthy background, she's so cultured and polite."
With a flush, she said, "Y-You're welcome. Please try them. If you like them, I'll make some more and ask Aldor to bring themover."
Cordelia nodded and said gently, "Everyone, don't just stand there. Come have a seat. We can continue to chat while eating.”
