”How about dinner, Charlie?”
”It's delicious. Is this chicken breast?”
”Yes, it has been marinated in a special sauce. It's an exclusive secret.”
The atmosphere at the dinner table was good, but the person who was supposed to be in charge of mediating the atmosphere changed from Mary to Li Zitao.
He was nothing. Natasha and Mia were embarrassed. Everyone could see that, but no one made it clear. Everyone pretended not to know.
With regard to Lily's family problems, Li Zitao and Mary chose not to ask. They just came to have a regular meal.
But I still know a lot in the conversation. Natasha is a well-known tailor and Mia is her assistant. They run a tailor's shop together because of their good craftsmanship and objective income.
This can be seen from the fact that they live on the upper west side. Even if the house is left by Riley's father, the consumption here is not affordable for ordinary people.
And Mary was looking at the room and the layout, listening to Natasha and Mia Deeper meaning.
Just like they always mention their dead husband, in Mary's opinion, they are repeatedly emphasizing lies or gaining sympathy.
Because if it's true, Riley's father really died, they don't have to keep emphasizing it.
The living room is full of things. The dining table is just enough for six people. There are several cheap oil paintings hanging on the wall. The theme is flowers. There are porcelain bottles on the small round table in the corner. It seems that their life is not boring, at least very warm.
In addition, with the size of the living room and kitchen and the number of doors in the corridor, Mary knew it was a two bedroom apartment about 1200 square feet.
Because she had been to the same apartment, but not in this building, which was bought by Li Zitao for rental investment.
Yes, Mary is very dissatisfied with this. Eden is their eldest son. If he wants to inherit the huge Li empire in the future, his wife must be able to help him. Anyway, Lily will not be the candidate.
At the end of the dinner, Natasha was cleaning up the dishes, Mia was with them, Eden and Riley were sitting on the sofa, whispering and laughing.
”Look at them, how happy they are.” Mia looked at the children and said happily.
”Actually, it's getting late. I think we should go.” Mary picked up her purse and looked at her husband.
”Yes, we should leave.” Of course, Li Zitao chose to cooperate.
After leaving Riley's house, there was only silence between them. After getting on the bus, Eden said, ”Mom, can't you be more friendly?”
”What?” Mary looked at him in disbelief.
”You are too cold. From the beginning to the end, you just answer questions politely, selectively...”
”What should I do? Say hello to them and kiss the back of your hand
”I...”
”Eden.” Li Zitao's face sank, ”don't talk to your mother like that, never...”
”Why?” Eden could see his mother's dissatisfaction, which was what made him angry. Why did she always interfere with her feelings.
This was the case before, and it is still the case now. Although it was not true before, could she not support herself once?
He is still young and has a long time to think about the future and choose his own path, and now it's like everything has been set.
