NovelEnglishChapter 1491: With a polite nod, Tiffany took a seat in the corner.
Skyla couldn't help but notice how reserved Tiffany was. She longed to draw Tiffany in, to make her feel at ease, but hesitated, afraid that her enthusiasm might overwhelm her. In the end, Skyla simply flashed Tiffany a kind smile.
Harlee raised an eyebrow and sat next to Tiffany to help her engage with the others.
On the other hand, the moment Rhys walked through the door, Harlee had already sent him off to take care of Felix. She knew he wouldn't be much use in a conversation between women.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtOne after another, the group made their way into the Sanderson family's backyard garden at around two in the afternoon.
Thanks to cutting-edge technology, the garden maintained a constant temperature throughout the year, allowing Harlee, Rhys, and the others to remain comfortable in light attire even in colder seasons. While Tiffany had felt at ease during their earlier conversation in the living room, she grew self-contemptuous upon learning that it cost hundreds of millions annually just to regulate the garden's temperature. Feeling a bit anxious, Tiffany stayed close to Harlee, taking pleasure in the balmy atmosphere while quietly sighing in relief.
The Sanderson family's wealth far surpassed what Tiffany had envisioned, affirming her decision that dating Clint was not a wise choice.
In the Sanderson family's backyard garden, Harlee settled comfortably onto a lavish reclining couch in the pavilion, its design evoking the elegance of ancient royalty. Beside her, Rhys was seated on a modest stool, meticulously peeling grapes that had arrived by air that morning. Rhys knew Harlee preferred her grapes without skins, so he carefully prepared each one before offering it to her.
Rhys asked, "Would you like sstrawberries? They were recently airlifted from a farm in Hamdol." Stay updated gVlnovesRhys chuckled as he carefully placed the peeled grapes into her mouth, his voice filled with tenderness. "OK," Harlee replied with a gentle nod, her eyes filled with affection as she gazed down at him. She wasn't particularly fond of fruit, but she made an exception for those prepared by Rhys.
Standing up, Rhys washed his hands, smoothed her hair, and then leaned down to kiss her gently, murmuring, "I'll be right back." As Rhys walked toward the sink, Harlee reclined, watching him leave. A smile graced her lips. She felt genuinely content with her devoted husband.
Harlee then turned to pick up Felix from his crib, took the milk bottle from the maid, and began feeding him carefully.
Felix seemed to know his mother was feeding him, eating vigorously and looking utterly charming.
When Rhys returned with the strawberries, he found himself quickening his pace, drawn by the tender scene before him.
Meanwhile, on the other side of the garden, Brenton, Clint, and Skyla, who had left her husband to join the younger crowd, were gathered around an unheated grill, all wearing expressions of uncertainty about whether to start cooking or wait for the grill to warm up.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmBrenton glanced at Skyla, who stood motionless. After a brief pause, he said, "Mom, are you sure you want to handle this on your own? Wouldn't you rather have the servants help?" It was Skyla's idea to "do it themselves."
She explained that the essence of eating barbecue was in enjoying the lively atmosphere and the communal and pants wait on experience Having servants wait on them would spoil the fun.
Consequently, the three of them, inexperienced in cooking, found themselves unsure of when to start grilling, standing around in confusion.
After exiting the restroom, Tiffany overheard their predicament. Taking a deep breath, she smiled and said, "You should heat the grill first before adding the meat." Upon hearing Tiffany's voice, Skyla greeted her with a smile and a wave.
"Tiffany, chere. Could you tell us which items take longer to cook? I want to start with those."
Brenton was left speechless by Skyla's words and rolled his eyes. Her intention was so obvious that it m couldn't be missed. Skyla was evidently trying to bond with Tiffany by feigning ignorance, hoping Tiffany would step in to assist. Skyla's approach was somewhat awkward.
