Chapter 134: His Brother’s Fiancée
Leander picked on the odd-tasting porridge with his spoon. He did not like to eat whatever that was. Apparently, his mother decided that it was healthy to eat some green concoction and it made it to the breakfast table.
Even Evander was eating that with no fuzz maybe because he was so immersed in his phone. His grandfather got biscotti. Why is he not getting biscotti?
He missed eating his wife’s cooking. Even the toast she prepares would be tasty. And she feeds him like a lion. He rarely sees green color on his plate unless it’s garnish. And everyone knows that you don’t eat the garnish.
Garnish is goat food.
And even the green stuff in the broth she makes would be tasty when she cooks it. And also, that orange thing that is needlessly sweet—carrots! He even eats carrots when his wife cooks.
But this... terrible!
"You don’t like it?" Viola asked with her brows raised.
"No, it’s..." Leander looked at the bowl in front of him. "I’m eating," he shrugged and stuffed that abomination into his mouth.
He didn’t want to cause any incident for a simple breakfast. He needs to tread carefully in front of his grandfather.
"That ring, is that a wedding band...?" Viola held his hand to take a peek. "Evan, did you see it?" she made Evander look. Show it to your grandfather," she didn’t fail to mention.
Leander, for the first time in his life, saw the true intent of his mother’s interest in him. Usually, she does not care much for the jewelry he wore. But today, she has an agenda, doesn’t she?
"Yes, it’s a matching wedding band. Do you like it?" he asked with a smile.
